Intercession or Intermission: A Matter of a 'Yes' Face

Christ Our Rock Bible Church (Christ Our Rock Bible Church) — Sun, 27 May 2012 21:00:00 +0000

Roy Warren, 5/27/2012: "Man, by reason, cannot know God; he can only know about God. When the Holy Spirit illuminates the heart, then a part of the man sees which never saw before; a part of him knows which never knew before, and that with a kind of knowing which the most acute thinker cannot imitate." (A.W. Tozer) Join us on Pentecost Sunday for the powerful message, "Intercession or Intermission?--A Matter of a 'Yes' Face."

The Troublesome Tens

Christ Our Rock Bible Church (Christ Our Rock Bible Church) — Sun, 20 May 2012 21:00:00 +0000

Roy Warren, 5/20/2012: Concerning Jesus not just being Savior, but Lord, A.W. Tozer once wrote, "These quasi-Christians follow a quasi-Christ. They want His help, but not His interference. They want His stamp of approval, but not His Lordship. They will flatter Him, but never obey Him." We have all heard of the "terrible two's," but what about the "troublesome 10's?" Join us in Numbers 13 & 14 to see the 10th wilderness decision Israel made.

Sibling Squabbles

Christ Our Rock Bible Church (Christ Our Rock Bible Church) — Sun, 13 May 2012 21:00:00 +0000

Roy Warren, 5/13/2012: "It is often difficult to tell in a given instance whether we have been defeated or are victorious in a conflict. Sometimes what looks like a defeat will be seen later to have been a positive victory. And it must not be forgotten that this principle works just the same in reverse." (A.W. Tozer) Join us this Mother's Day as we examine the squabble in Moses' family (Numbers 12), and in Jesus' "family," which is found in Luke 24.

The Wilderness Experience: Wandering or Worshiping?

Christ Our Rock Bible Church (Christ Our Rock Bible Church) — Sun, 06 May 2012 21:00:00 +0000

Roy Warren, 5/6/2012: "The question we must all consider is how much intensity we will accept in our relationship with God. He sent Jesus to us, and Jesus sent His Spirit into us. God will draw you as close as you want to get. If you ask Him to back off, sadly, he will--for a time. If you ask for a deeper, closer relationship, you'll find that He wants it even more than you do." (Chris Tiegreen) Join us in, "Wilderness Worshipers or Wanderers?"

It's Your Choice: A Matter of Open Eyes

Christ Our Rock Bible Church (Christ Our Rock Bible Church) — Sun, 29 Apr 2012 21:00:00 +0000

Roy Warren, 4/29/2012: "Do you struggle with love and joy? Then check your faith. Do you really believe what He tells you? Then let your heart feel what He tells you. Faith is meant to work its way out into our works, our perspectives, and our attitudes. Let it!" (Chris Tiegreen) Come and join us as we continue our trek through the resurrection appearances of Jesus to discover some of the possible responses there can be to true freedom in Christ.

American Idle: A Matter of Reality Showing

Christ Our Rock Bible Church (Christ Our Rock Bible Church) — Sun, 22 Apr 2012 21:00:00 +0000

Roy Warren, 4/22/2012: "One distinguishing mark of those first Christians was a supernatural radiance that shined out from within them. The sun had come up in their hearts and its warmth and light made unnecessary any secondary sources of assurance. They had the inner witness, but the average professing Christian today is without this radiance. Instead of inner witness, we now substitute it with logical conclusions drawn from texts." (A.W. Tozer)

Freedom's Response

Christ Our Rock Bible Church (Christ Our Rock Bible Church) — Sun, 15 Apr 2012 21:00:00 +0000

Roy Warren, 4/15/2012: "It's natural to persevere when you have only one hope. When only one prize will do, there is nothing else to turn to when you face a setback. Those who would follow Jesus fully CAN'T be spiritually soft. We need to endure. Times are hard, circumstances are difficult, but God is for us, and He calls us forward. We must let no obstacle get in the way of our hope and our calling." (Chris Tiegreen) Such is freedom's response!

As Never Before

Christ Our Rock Bible Church (Christ Our Rock Bible Church) — Sun, 18 Mar 2012 21:00:00 +0000

Roy Warren, 3/18/2012: Referring to the Church in general, A.W. Tozer once wrote, "We want to be saved but we insist that Christ do all the dying. No cross for us, no dethronement, no dying. We remain king within the little kingdom of Mansoul and wear our tinsel crown with all the pride of a Caesar; but we doom ourselves to shadows and weakness and spiritual sterility." Join us as we delve into Exodus 9: 13-35 and the amazing plague of hail and fire.

What Goes Around, Comes Around!

Christ Our Rock Bible Church (Christ Our Rock Bible Church) — Sun, 11 Mar 2012 21:00:00 +0000

Roy Warren, 3/11/2012: "The Cross of modern Christianity is not the Cross of the New Testament. It is, rather, a bright ornament upon the bosom of a self-assured and carnal Christianity. The old Cross slew men; the new cross entertains them. The old Cross condemned; the new cross amuses. The old Cross destroyed confidence in the flesh; the new cross encourages it." (A.W. Tozer) Join us in Exodus 9:8-12.

Not Everything is OK at the OK Corral!

Christ Our Rock Bible Church (Christ Our Rock Bible Church) — Sun, 04 Mar 2012 22:00:00 +0000

Roy Warren, 3/4/2012: "So subtle is self that scarcely anyone is conscious of its presence. Because man is born a rebel, he is unaware that he is one. His constant assertion of self appears to him to be a perfectly normal thing. He is willing to share himself, sometimes even to sacrifice himself for a desired end, but never to dethrone himself." (A.W. Tozer) Join us in Exodus 9:1-7, to discover the problem with jealousy--"Not Everything is O.K. at the O.K. Corral."

The Finger of God: Quit Buggin' Us!

Christ Our Rock Bible Church (Christ Our Rock Bible Church) — Sun, 26 Feb 2012 22:00:00 +0000

Roy Warren, 2/26/12: "The old rugged cross is a symbol of death. God salvages the individual by liquidating him and then raising him again to newness of life. God offers life, but not an improved old life. The life He offers is life out of death. It stands always on the far side of the cross. Among the plastic saints of our times, Jesus has to do all the dying, and all we want is to hear another sermon about His dying." (A. W. Tozer) Join us in Exodus 8:16-32.

Tomorrow, Tomorrow: The Call to the Cross?

Christ Our Rock Bible Church (Christ Our Rock Bible Church) — Sun, 19 Feb 2012 22:00:00 +0000

Roy Warren, 2/19/2012: "Our uncrucified flesh will rob us of purity of heart, Christ-likeness of character, spiritual insight, fruitfulness; and more than all, it will hide from us the vision of God's face, that vision which has been the light of earth and will be the completeness of heaven. Why do we build our churches upon human flesh, for we teach men not to die with Christ, but to live in the strength of their dying manhood?" (A.W. Tozer) Join us in Exodus 8:1-19.

A Matter of GREATER: Sticks & Snakes; Water & Blood

Christ Our Rock Bible Church (Christ Our Rock Bible Church) — Sun, 12 Feb 2012 22:00:00 +0000

Roy Warren, 2/12/2012: "Sin has many manifestations, but its essence is one. A moral being, created to worship before the throne of God, sits on the throne of his own selfhood, and from that elevated position, declares, 'I AM.' That is sin in its concentrated essence; yet because it is so natural, it appears to be good. When does humanity realize that it is a usurper and sits on a stolen throne?" (A.W. Tozer) Join us in Exodus 7: 8-24.

Irony of Ironies

Christ Our Rock Bible Church (Christ Our Rock Bible Church) — Sun, 05 Feb 2012 22:00:00 +0000

Roy Warren, 2/5/2012: "By many today, the Christian life is thought to be a glum, unrelieved cross-carrying under the eye of a stern Father who expects much and excuses nothing. The truth is that God is the most loving of beings, and His service is one of unspeakable pleasure. He values our love more than galaxies of newly created worlds." (A.W. Tozer) What irony! Choosing to live under poisoned and perverted notions of an all-caring God!!!

The Good Old Days: Are They Really That Big of a Deal?

Christ Our Rock Bible Church (Christ Our Rock Bible Church) — Sun, 29 Jan 2012 22:00:00 +0000

Roy Warren, 1/29/2012 - Many have told Jesus His is a hard word (John 6:60). Gary Wilkerson begs to differ--"I believe a hard gospel is one that leaves people in their sin, and tolerates milk-drenched, undernourished, immature Christians--Christians who know little joy because they know little of gospel truth. A hard word leaves hardened hearts in the pew. A Biblically saturated word from heaven is never a hard word, but a word of victory, deliverance, and freedom."

My Wit's End

Christ Our Rock Bible Church (Christ Our Rock Bible Church) — Sun, 22 Jan 2012 22:00:00 +0000

Roy Warren, 1/22/2012: Psalm 107:8 tells us, "Oh that men would praise the Lord for His goodness, and for His wonderful works to the children of men!" In fact, that same Psalm says those very words four times, each time to direct His people when they find themselves in very specific difficult situations. Join us in that this very powerful portion of the Word of God will help to build your faith and encourage you when you truly need God's intervening grace.

Truth or Error: We Can't Have it Both Ways

Christ Our Rock Bible Church (Christ Our Rock Bible Church) — Sun, 15 Jan 2012 22:00:00 +0000

Roy Warren, 1/15/2012: "It is important to see clearly that men must either deny that the Bible is the Word of God, or admit its sufficiency and supremacy in all ages, and in all countries--in all stages and conditions of the human race." (C. H. Mackintosh) Join us as we will be taking a look at the three alternatives if the aforementioned supposition is not true. There is no doubt--no one, not you, or I, or anyone else, can have it both ways!

The Temple Presence

Christ Our Rock Bible Church (Christ Our Rock Bible Church) — Sun, 08 Jan 2012 22:00:00 +0000

Roy Warren, 1/8/2012: "The sky was a dingy sheet of gloom, and it was wet and cold the January afternoon as I sat in a friend's office, staring out the window. Raindrops dripped from leafless branches. Rivulets of water ran like tears down the windowpanes. I sighed, drooping under the weight of winter's longest weeks." So begins an amazing tale about post-Christmas blues that will bring us right to an uplifting story of the presence of God in the temple in Luke 2.
