In Ecclesiastes 12:13 Solomon said, “The end of the matter; all has been heard. Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the whole duty of man.” Everything’s been considered and Solomon meant it. He tried, tasted, and experienced anything you could try, taste, and experience. He wrestled with the most important issues of […]

Isaiah 64:8 says, “You are our Father; we are the clay, and You our potter; and all we are the work of Your hand.” We can say this to God since He’s sovereign, including over the trials we experience. To reject trials is to reject God’s will for our lives. The Potter and the Clay […]

James 5:11 says, “We count those blessed who endured. You have heard of the endurance of Job and have seen the outcome of the Lord’s dealings, that the Lord is full of compassion and is merciful.” If someone said, “Show me an example in Scripture of God being compassionate and merciful” you wouldn’t take them to Job, but James 5:11 says that even […]

“Behold, children are a gift of the Lord, the fruit of the womb is a reward,” writes Solomon in Psalm 127:3. My desire with this sermon is for people to view children as they’re described in the Bible, which is to say view children as God views them. Lessons for Children Are a Gift of […]

Unity and holiness is important to the church for the sanctification of believers and outreach and evangelism to unbelievers. God’s pattern throughout man’s history is to have an inside and outside, including during the Church Age. Holiness creates the boundary so the church doesn’t look like the world. In the Old Testament the Mosaic Law […]

John the Baptist commanded the multitudes to bear fruit worthy of repentance (Matthew 3:8 and Luke 3:8). This verse helps reveal the most common reason people fail regarding repentance. They put off without putting on. They stop the sin without starting the accompanying behavior God wants. Manasseh, the evilest king of Judah, surprisingly is a […]

James 1:2 says, “Count it all joy when you fall into various trials.” Notice it says WHEN you fall into various trials instead of “IF you fall into various trials.” We’re going to face trials. They will come. In John 16:33 [Jesus said], “In the world YOU WILL HAVE tribulation…or trials. In Acts 14:22 Paul […]

Work and Rest God’s Way Foreword and Introduction

Foreword-for-Work-and-Rest-Gods-Way

Work and Rest God’s Way was recently published. My friend, Israel Wayne, wrote the foreword… Foreword for Work and Rest God’s Way “No one likes doing more than they absolutely must.” As my fourteen-year-old son shared this sentiment with me my mind flashed back to when I was his age. As I engaged him, I […]

Romans 8:28 says, “And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.” If I had to choose only one example of this verse coming true in my life, it would be my brother’s death. My only sibling, Jason, was fourteen months […]

Job Shows Perseverance Doesn’t Mean Perfection

Job Shows Perseverance Doesn't Mean Perfection-author-scott-lapierre

Job is the New Testament example of a persevering saint. He demonstrates that perseverance doesn’t mean perfection! James 5:11b says, “You have heard of the perseverance of Job.” How did he persevere? He persevered the same way everyone perseveres—by maintaining faith in God. Twice Satan predicted he would curse God, and at one point his wife […]
