Mill Creek Church

As Christians we will suffer persecution for living out our faith. As Paul spread the gospel, magnifying his ministry he was put in prison, yet he still experienced joy in serving the Lord.

God dwells among us. The Church, designed by God, not man, is where we repent and worship. It is where we find refuge and support for one another. We should be passionate about the Church.

Holiness cannot be separated from Salvation; God saved us to be Holy. We must pursue peace with all people and holiness, without which no one will see the Lord. We must be intentional and commit to be holy.

Jesus is the cornerstone of the Church. He is either the one who holds up the house, or it falls. He can be your stumbling block if you reject Him. Christ builds His Church. He must be our focus on how and why we do anything.

God moves within the men and women of the Church. We are to love one another, do good works, worship Christ together, and encourage one another as we wait upon the Lord.

There was enmity between Jews and Gentiles. The middle wall of the separation was the law. The Jews had a promise of the covenants, but in the New Testament, we find the Gentiles included in the covenant. We are reconciled through the path of the work on the cross. He is our peace, both Jew and Gentile.

We have peace with God, but not as the world gives. The world gives us temporary peace. The peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

There is glory only in the cross. Christ on the cross is the apex of all centuries. Christ was slain on the cross to redeem every tongue and tribe. May the work of the cross never leave our minds.

Christ is the Messiah of Jews and Gentiles. He impacts Christians lives transforming, cleansing, and forgiving us as children of God. We exalt and express ourselves in worship of Him.

Jesus shed His blood to take the wrath of my specific sin. Christians have a precious relationship with Christ because He gave us life through Salvation.

We cannot boast in our faithfulness because God gave us even our faith. We can boast in nothing except Jesus Christ. None are righteous, no not one. We can only exalt Jesus Christ.

God redeemed us from chaos and purified us for Himself as His special people for good works. Serving in the Kingdom is a grace given by God, and we are to use the gifts He gave us.

If we exalt ourselves, we will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted. Understanding that it is God who saves and not ourselves produces peace and joy everlasting.

By God's grace and mercy, we are made alive together with Christ. If we are raised up as Christ's followers, we will suffer as Christ suffered. But if we endure to the end, we will glorify Christ into eternity.

Sin starts in the mind, so we must bring every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ. We have to pick up the word of God and use it to instruct our minds.

Before Christ, we are dead. If we walk in Christ we experience joy. To be spiritually minded is to pursue holiness and live joyfully.

We are dead without Christ. The lost cannot comprehend the truth of the gospel. Only through regeneration can God make us alive.
