Seeking Salvation From Christ – Admonition 198

In Admonition Podcast by Web Administrator

Summary:

Jesus offers salvation, but He is also the Creator.  What is He offering you?

Scripture:

John 1:1-3, 14 – In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made.
14 And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.

Transcript:

And now, Admonition.

In the beginning was the word and the word was with God and the word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him and without him, without who? Without the word. Nothing was made that was made. Jesus offers you salvation. He offers you a way to the father, but did you also know he created everything around you? If you’re going to seek salvation from this life, may I encourage you, seek it from the one who created this life. And upholds it by the word of his power, Hebrews chapter one. May I encourage you to seek it from Christ and him alone. Take that with you today and consider if you’re seeking salvation from the right individual.

We Will Go Up and Fight

In Admonition by Aaron Cozort

Scripture:

Deuteronomy 1:41

Description:

Scripture:

Deuteronomy 1:41 “Then you answered and said to me, ‘We have sinned against the LORD; we will go up and fight, just as the LORD our God commanded us.’ And when everyone of you had girded on his weapons of war, you were ready to go up into the mountain.

Transcript:

And now, Admonition, brought to you by the Collierville Church of Christ.

Then you answered, this is Moses speaking to Israel, the second generation about the first generation that came out of Egypt. He said, then that first generation answered and said, we have sinned against the Lord. We will go up and fight just as the Lord our God commanded us.

This sounds good. This sounds like they’re being obedient. The problem is God’s already said, you’re not going in the land because you refuse to go into the promised land. You will wander in the wilderness for 40 years. So while it sounds like they’re saying we’re going to obey the command of the Lord, it’s not actually that way. They’re still saying, we’re going to do it our way on our timetable. That’s not obedience. We need to be those who obey God when he tells us to do something and we need to do it the way He told us to do it.

Sometimes We Talk Too Much – Admonition 197

In Admonition Podcast by Web Administrator

Summary:

Jesus did not respond to his accusers and we should learn the lesson in this for us.

Scripture:

Mark 15:3-5 – And the chief priests accused Him of many things, but He answered nothing.  Then Pilate asked Him again, saying, “Do You answer nothing? See how many things they testify against You!”  But Jesus still answered nothing, so that Pilate marveled.
 
Transcript:

And now, Admonition…

Sometimes we say too much. That goes without saying. Sometimes we talk too often. There was a time in which Jesus said nothing. in Mark chapter 15, then Pilate asked him saying, do you answer nothing? He’s on trial and he’s giving no reply for their accusations. He says, Do you answer nothing? See how many things they testify against you? But Jesus still answered nothing. So that Pilate marveled. Here’s the governor of the people and he’s astonished that this man stands and says nothing.

Why can you say nothing when someone speaks against you? Let me encourage you to think about it this way. Jesus life spoke for him. Does yours?

The Leader You Want

In Admonition by Aaron Cozort

Scripture:

Deuteronomy 1:13

Description:

Scripture:

De 1:13 Take you wise men, and understanding, and known among your tribes, and I will make them rulers over you.

Transcript:

And now, Admonition, brought to you by the Collierville Church of Christ.

Deuteronomy chapter one verse 13 we read, Choose wise, understanding, and knowledgeable men from among the tribes, and I will make them heads over you. This is a command to Moses from God saying you pick out individuals from among Israel to be their leaders, to be their judges. This goes back to Exodus chapter 18 where Jethro gives him this advice. The point is, these are the kind of people you’re looking for as a leader. If your job is to find leaders, find these kind of wise, understanding, and knowledgeable men.

If everyone has gone astray, have you turned back to God? You will not go God’s way without a cost. Are you willing to pay the cost?

Transcript:

Isaiah chapter 53 speaks of a lamb, a lamb taken to the slaughter, a lamb put to death for our sins. But here in verse six we read this, All we like sheep have gone astray. We have turned every one to his own way, and the Lord has laid on him. Who? The lamb. The iniquity of us all. You can’t go your way without a cost, and Jesus paid the cost. Will you change and go God’s way? Give it some thought today. Go God’s way.

What Rich People Buy

In Admonition by Aaron Cozort

Scripture:

James 1:9-11

Description:

Summary:

The rich buy things, but the Bible gives us an insight into what the rich ought to buy if they want to be successful beyond this life. Failure to purchase this one asset has been the downfall of more rich people than any failure. It has brought about millions of dollars in losses, and tanked whole companies.
No cashflow analysis will show you this… the one thing that matters most for a rich person to possess.”

Scripture:

James 1:9-11 – Let the lowly brother glory in his exaltation, but the rich in his humiliation, because as a flower of the field he will pass away. For no sooner has the sun risen with a burning heat than it withers the grass; its flower falls, and its beautiful appearance perishes. So the rich man also will fade away in his pursuits.

Transcript:

And now, Admonition.

Riches in this life can buy you a lot of things. It can buy you position; it can buy you prominence. But friend, if you’re rich and you’re a member of the body of Christ, may I encourage you to allow your riches to buy you humility? James chapter one, James writes, let the lowly brother (physically)… the lowly brother glory in his exaltation… Those who are poor, those who are lowly in this life, God exalts them. …But the rich in his humiliation. If you’re going to be happy about something and you’re rich, if you’re going to be happy about something today, may I encourage you, be happy if you’re humbled. Be happy if you’re lowered; be blessed in humiliation. It’s hard to be rich and serve God.

The Filthy Rich

In Admonition by Aaron Cozort

Scripture:

1 Timothy 6:18

Description:

Scripture:

1 Timothy 6:18 – That they do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to distribute, willing to communicate

Transcript:

And now, Admonition.

I heard a phrase growing up that I don’t hear much anymore, maybe it’s being said just not around me, but it was someone’s “filthy rich.” We should never be filthy rich. We should never be so rich that it destroys our purity. But Paul writes to Timothy and he says, command those who are rich in this present age, not to be haughty, nor to trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God who gives us richly all things to enjoy. Let them… All right, if you’re rich, this applies to you. …Let them do good, that they may be rich in good works, ready to give, willing to share.

If you’re rich today, there’s your call. Be ready to give, ready to share, and rich, not in money, but in good works.

Let Us Reason Together – Admonition 195

In Admonition Podcast by Web Administrator

God exhorts us to reason with Him. 

Transcript:

And now, admonition.

Reason… reason is a beautiful thing. To think and consider, to analyze, and to reason about something. It is a valuable tool, a valuable asset to any individual in their daily lives. But did you know God calls upon us to reason with Him? In Isaiah chapter one, in verse 18 he says, Come now, let us reason together. Says the Lord, though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow, though they are red light crimson, they shall be as wool. If you are willing and obedient, you shall eat the good of the land. God says, reason with me. Come to an understanding with me. Obey me, and I’ll bless you.

Where Does God Dwell?

In Admonition by Aaron Cozort

Scripture:

1 Timothy 6:15-16; 1 Corinthians 15

Description:

Summary:

Where does God dwell? Will you go there? Does He dwell on a high mountain? Does He dwell in a mythical place? Can you walk up to Him and talk to Him as you are right now?

What must you do to be ready to go into the presence of God?

Scripture:

1 Timothy 6:15-16 which He will manifest in His own time, He who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings and Lord of lords,16 who alone has immortality, dwelling in unapproachable light, whom no man has seen or can see, to whom be honor and everlasting power. Amen.

Transcript:

And now, Admonition.

Where does God dwell? Where is the home of God? What would it be like to be near the home of God? There’s a lot of things in scripture that we could read on this idea, but Paul writes to Timothy, his son in the faith, and first Timothy Chapter six and he says this: Concerning the king of kings and Lord of Lords, who alone has immortality, dwelling in unapproachable light. The light of God is such that we in flesh, in human form, cannot be in his presence. God dwells in a place where we have to be changed to go. First Corinthians 15 says, that’s the resurrection, and if you’re faithful, you can go.

The Ceremony That Killed Two Men – Admonition 194

In Admonition Podcast by Web Administrator

Summary:

The sons of Aaron made a sinful choice because of a bad influence.  Remove this bad influence from your life.

Scripture:

Leviticus 10:1-2, 9-10 Then Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, each took his censer and put fire in it, put incense on it, and offered profane fire before the LORD, which He had not commanded them. So fire went out from the LORD and devoured them, and they died before the LORD…. 9 “Do not drink wine or intoxicating drink, you, nor your sons with you, when you go into the tabernacle of meeting, lest you die. It shall be a statute forever throughout your generations, 10 “that you may distinguish between holy and unholy, and between unclean and clean,

Transcript:

And now Admonition…

Two men were invited to take part in the ceremony. They were invited to take part in the beginning of a ceremony that that would set and alter the course of an entire nation. And they didn’t live through the experience. Aaron had two sons names Nadab, and Abihu. He had four… those two we’re talking about, Nadab and Abihu were priests of God. They were supposed to offer fire and incense upon the altar and they didn’t do it properly. And do you know why? If you read Leviticus chapter 10 very carefully, you’ll find out why… they were drunk. They didn’t know the difference between one fire and another, and they put the wrong fire on the altar and God took their lives. Don’t drink.
