Sunday Worship – Page 14 – Mt Freedom Baptist Church

It’s no secret that as we put our faith in God, we are commanded to love Him first and foremost. From there, we are to also love “one another” in the same manner as Christ loves us. But how do we do this? God’s Word is filled with practical ways which can help us understand how it’s possible to achieve something that seems impossible. Until our love inside the walls of the church rises above our emotions, above our sensitive feelings, above our petty differences, above our likes and dislikes, we will never experience the full power of God working in our lives, and we will struggle to make any impact in our community or for the Kingdom.

The world around us will know that we belong to Jesus through the way we love them. The words of Jesus found in John 13:34 are not words of impossibility but are words of encouragement to go and walk in his ways rather than our own. It is an invitation to love beyond us, and to focus on the interests of others.

God did not simply tell us that He loves us. Instead, he used an action, not an emotion, or a feeling, or a fleeting sentiment, but a sacrificial act on the cross. Your access to God’s love and to His eternal Kingdom rests on your decision to accept Jesus and the power of His reconciliation.

We live in a world where the true meaning of love has been distorted. Mankind has taken a gift from God, which He intended as special and meaningful, and turned it into something manufactured and artificial. Love by the standards of our world has been reduced to something pleasing to the eye and purely physical in nature. Real love, according to the manner in which God intended, is so much more and carries a much deeper purpose for our lives.

All Christians must desire to do the will of God. We accomplish this by first seeking to find what God wishes to accomplish within our hearts, and then what He wishes to accomplish through us in the power of His spiritual gifts. Then we must commit to obeying God’s leading no matter what mission He … Read more

All human life has intrinsic value from the moment of conception through all eternity. Our value comes not from society nor form our own sense of self-worth, but from our creator, to whom we belong.

Every person holds true to a set of values which speak to what is most important in their life. Organizations, especially churches, should hold true to the values assigned to them by God. If our core values are not in alignment with God’s Word, then we must prayerfully and honestly evaluate them and willingly make changes which will bring us back into agreement with Him. Afterall, our values dictate our behavior, unify us in our beliefs, and keep us grounded in the Word.

Every person operates with a “mission statement”. Some realize this and embrace it. Others spend most of their lives not knowing what it is that truly motivates them. A mission statement allows the world around us to see who it is we are behind the curtain. At MFBC, our purpose is found in our mission statement. The challenge becomes whether or not we truly embody its words.
