• Church, a Place...
To belong is to be accepted. To belong is to feel secure. Without belonging, we are isolated and alone. Our greatest desire as humans is to know and be known, to love and be loved, and to feel confident that those who know and love us will be there for us through thick and thin. Mother Teresa, the tireless servant in Calcutta’s slums, said, “If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other.” That is never truer than in the church. This new society that Jesus calls His church is where we find connection to God and a sense of belonging.
This teaching is from the series Church, a Place... with Skip Heitzig from Calvary Church.
Thank God for your teaching, and preaching. I listen to you as often as possible. God bless your ministry.
ABSOLUTELY A GREAT MESSAGE THANK YOU
Dear pastor Skip, thanks for great teaching, I like: I belong because ...you explained very good, thanks.
Awesome Skip thank you, blessings
That's where my 1st husband & I 1st had 👀🤔 knew each other "biblically"😮 in the parking lot😬 didn't get caught, but he confessed. lol
Pastor Skip, I'm just beside myself after listening to this sermon. Thank you for all you do. I listen to you often. I live in Indiana so obviously I don't attend physically at your church. I just have to say I'm a little disappointed and confused over the latter part of your sermon. For the title evidently meaning something different than what was spoken at the very end. You said that Israel and the church are separate!? I am confused by the statement as I don't find it in scripture. If the church is something different than the fulfillment of Jeremiah 31 promise to the Jewish people I'm reading the wrong copy of the Bible then? Is this not the new covenant spoken of in Jeremiah? If so, Peter James and John being the reputable pillars of this church were Jewish and obviously didn't stop being Jewish to become the church. Gentiles were proven to being called by the Spirit and were incorporated within this church which is the New testament ..which is the promise of Jeremiah 31 so where did I miss that Israel is separate from the church? I have read numerous times the book of Romans especially 9 through 11 and I don't see anything but Paul making very clear that God has concluded both Jew and gentile under disobedience that he might have mercy on all. Through Israel's fall we see the severity of God and the goodness of God towards the other nations of the world. We see a partial blindness just until the fullness of the gentile Nations has come in and then the salvation of Israel. But I have not found in scripture where God has promised them a kingdom and a physical land separate from any inheritance that any gentile believer might receive. Call me naive that I took it from reading the Bible that all of God's chosen people were chosen in Christ before the foundation of the world but it's what I believe. Jesus their Messiah came to them in person and they received him not. Neither did they know the time of their visitation but scripture clearly pointed to that time --to the day that they should have been expecting him but they exclaimed crucify him. Somehow speaking those words today is somehow anti-Semitic but is nothing short of the word of God itself. The severity of God removed them from that land for nearly 2,000 years with a partial blinding but mercy and for His great names sake prophesied their return for an encounter with none other than their very own Messiah once again. I believe scripture clearly says that a third of them will be saved but I don't see in scripture where they will have an exclusive kingdom and land forever all to themselves being the preeminence over the earth. Christ has placed his name there in that land and he desires to inhabit it. He brought the children of Israel to that land. He himself came to that land, walked among them in that land, was crucified in that land, shed holy blood in that land, Hung his head and died in that land, was buried and rose again from the dead in that land, appeared to many and ascended into heaven from that land. That is his land. And as far as the kingdom we have been translated into the kingdom of his dear son. His is the kingdom, the everlasting kingdom. The one that purchased men for God with his own blood-- he is the king of the kingdom that will rule and reign from that land and he loved and laid down his life for his church.
So tell me, what more does he owe Israel?
I am praying for you and for all of those attempt to divide this kingdom and preach something that is contrary to the word of God. Peace.
You carry Jesus in your heart not wear Him on your sleeve.🤗
Babtism is important but not necessary.
For salvation it's not necessary...for growth in Christ It Is necessary. We can't intentionally ignore a direct command by Christ and live a healthy relationship with Christ
It’s interesting to see pastors miss the mark on baptism. What makes him think this is speaking of spiritual baptism. That seems an awful lot like eisegesis. Same usually goes for the reformed view of 1 Peter 3:21. Why do so many go out of their way to say exactly the opposite of what scripture plainly says. Not that Chip is doing that here. But many “teachers” do that and twist these two scriptures. I’d love to see some reasoned dialogue between these two orthodox views of baptism.
Baptism is not a work that earns you anything, it is an accepting that Christ died for you (the gift), being buried with him in baptism Rom. 6:3-4, having your sins forgiven and receiving the holy spirit. Acts 2:38-f
Sorry, Skip not chip.
Thanks for watching our videos Bert! And no worries we have had guest speakers call Skip Chip instead of Skip.
