Grace teaches us to live self-controlled, upright, and godly in this present age.
When we emphasize one or two of these traits we (and our church) get out of whack, but when we emphasize the Gospel of Jesus Christ, all three increasingly come into view in our lives and church.
Tomorrow in Morgantown at 9 & 11AM:
Baptisms!
Member commissioning!

Either we conclude: "*I* should be God," or "God should be God."
At the end of the day what you choose to believe doesn’t change God, but it sure will change you."

Watch the full sermon, Objection! God is Not Fair:
https://t.co/a9cvEp7inn
"At the end of the day, you and I are going to have to wrestle with the reality of God’s total freedom–his total God-ness–until we lose our pride and we acknowledge his glory.
Either our pride becomes small or our god becomes small.
Either our ego dies or our faith dies.
"What shall we say then? Is there injustice on God’s part?"
Join us tomorrow at 9AM or 11AM in Morgantown as we open Romans 9 and answer the objection: God is unfair.
God's electing love is gracious (9:11, Deut. 7:6-11)
God's electing love is eternal (8:28-39)
God's electing love is personal (9:13)
God's electing love is efficacious (8:29-33)
God's electing love is our confidence sharing the Gospel (Acts 13:48)

God's Word Has Not Failed! (Romans 9:1-6)
Isaac and Ishmael show God's promise depends on faith and not our flesh (v7-9).
Jacob and Esau show God's promise depends upon God's grace and not our works (v10-13).
Habakkuk is a prophet for the frustrated.

As we continue our study through Micah on Sundays, won't you join us in reading through Isaiah each day of the Advent season?
#Advent2019#wvcrossroads#whoneedsChristmas
Today is new year's eve on the church calendar. Advent kicks off tomorrow at Crossroads with four Sundays of longing for hope, faith, joy, and peace in Christ's coming leading up to Christmas day.
"I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through me." If Jesus is loving, why was he so intolerant? Join us this weekend as we continue in Christian Heresies with "God Accepts All Religions."
