The Cure for Unbelief

Good morning to all! The Word at DCCLV on Sunday June 12, 2011 was truly convicting. I believe many of us from that word did a self check and saw where we were lacking. I, myself went home and immediately rehearsed to retain. One of the most powerful things to me that was said was what Pastor shared from Joshua's summer college course. His professor told the class that the students who go and study the class material immediately after class retain 85% of the information that was taught in the class. Those students who do not go over the lesson immediately only retain 5%. These are startling statistics, but it showed the man in the mirror the reason for unbelief. We all understand Romans 10:17 where it says that faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God. However, it is evident that faith has not come because of the level of unbelief that is in the life of many believers. I mean really, how many times have we not cast out the little demon in the little boy in our own

Are You a Syncretist?

Several years ago, I preached a message entitled, The Power of Choice. In this message I was teaching that Satan is at the heart of all sin (1 John 3:8). He deceives people into believing a lie and counsels them to rebel against God. I showed that, the source of all sin is the devil but is manifested through internal (flesh), external (the world) and demonic (demons themselves) influences. In that message I was sharing how the sin influence was from the internal or the flesh. Today I will be dealing with the external sin influence through the world. The external sin influence through the world is very strong. It has a very enticing animal magnetism that has the ability to draw away any believer. Yes, I said any believer. If we are not daily, (and I mean daily) reading, studying, meditating and doing the Word, any one of us will find ourselves drawn away by the world and its lust. How can this be when the Word of God is so very clear on a believer's relationship with the world?
