Notes:- Story of man who lived along river, flood, trusted God/missed help- God is speaking but we don't know how to listen- 7 problems we have hearing God: we want God to speak on our terms, we're self-centered, we aren't committed to obey, we want benefits without responsibility, preconceived notions, we want His words to serve our purpose, we want unlimited chances to ignore His word- We don't have a picture of Jesus' life, but snapshots- Matthew: words of Jesus, Mark: works of Jesus, Luke: chronology, John: conflict- Belief is when I change my life to conform to what God says is true- Story of man with gout; we hear what we want to hear- The way to get there is to go through it- Walk with God or be afraid

Ref: Romans 10:14-18; Philippians 3:8-9; Hebrews 4:8-9

Notes:- People strive in their faith, flailing like a fish with no peace- Faith is not a tool, but a gift from God to the believer that he may trust God in everything- (Saving) faith comes by hearing the word of God, not everyday faith- Faith is not increased by reading the word of God; it is a gift- Gifts of the Spirit are not given to individuals to keep, but for a time to do a work of the Spirit- We've gone after faith, gifts, blessings... only need Jesus- People act desperately; flesh faith has a deadline- Faith of Christ is at rest in the circumstances (children, finances...)

Scripture: Matthew 24:32-51; 25:1-13

Topic: : Faithfulness

Notes:- The Lord's return should be priority in our thoughts- People elsewhere are suffering for Christ; we don't have problems- We have too much to do and no real desire for Jesus- A sense of delay in His coming causes carnal living- Parable of the fig tree: be aware of the times- The second coming can be calculated but the rapture cannot- Jesus saves you to wait for Him, then you will pray, seek, become conscientious about the way you live- It's easy to get sloppy (story of messy hotel room)- Parable of the ten virgins- Unconditional eternal security without a holy life- We don't have godly fear

Notes:- You must test everything against scripture- Your feelings can be your biggest deception- You can be deceived by someone else, but also by yourself- You reap what you sow; be merciless on your flesh- The Bible is the only book with the anointing of God- Numerology... false hope in claims- The only thing that will help you is Christ Jesus- Satan has deceived people with so called gifts... prophecies, tongues- Prophecies are to edify the church, not individuals- Tribulation not to come until antichrist revealed (video Obama)- Holy Spirit will never be taken from the earth- Don't put faith in a miracle, sign or wonder or man
