 “Living Pure Spiritually”

Lead Pastor, Stephen Macaluso

 

“When you bring blind animals for sacrifice, is that not wrong?  When you sacrifice crippled or diseased animals, is that not wrong?  Try offering them to your governor!  Would he be pleased with you?  Would he accept you?” says the Lord Almighty.  “Now implore God to be gracious to us.  With such offerings from your hands, will he accept you?” —says the Lord Almighty.  “Oh, that one of you would shut the temple doors, so that you would not light useless fires on my altar!  I am not pleased with you,” says the Lord Almighty, “and I will accept no offering from your hands.”                      Malachi 1:8-10

 

“My name will be great among the nations, from the rising to the setting of the sun.  In every place incense and pure offerings will be brought        to my name, because my name will be great among the nations,” says the Lord Almighty.               Malachi 1:11

 

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.                                    John 3:16

 

“My purpose is to give life in all its fullness.”         John 10:10 (NLT)

 

“Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God.  Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things.      Colossians 3:1, 2

 

 

 #1.  God deserves an excellent commitment back to Him.

 

#2.  God deserves a more sincere form of affection from me.

 

#3.  God deserves a more sincere form of affection from me.
