3/15/2020 "Offer Them Christ"
Audio Unavailable Due To Worship Service Cancellation.
Message by: Rev. Dr. Armando C. Arellano
Sermon Notes:
Scripture: John 4:5-15
Introduction
The Samaritans were a mixed race and they mixed worship of God with pagan
rituals. After Jews were deported to Assyria, the Assyrians repopulated areas with
captives from other countries to settle the territory and keep the peace. Those new
peoples intermarried with the few Jews left and formed the mixed race. So the Jews
hated the Samaritans because they weren’t pure and felt they’d betrayed their religious
heritage. Jesus had to go through Samaria, to keep divine appointments.
(Dr. Ed Matheson)
Main Points
-Jesus crossed social barriers
-People matter to Christ
-Jesus is offering spiritual life
-Jesus offers redemption to the ostracized
-Jesus brings hope to the oppressed
-Jesus meets us in the most unexpected places
Jesus met a woman with a deep spiritual thirst. She listened. She believed. She
was never the same again.
The Samaritan woman came empty, but she left filled with the Spirit of life. She
was suffering from spiritual drought to a spiritual overflow.
Quote: St. Augustine said, "the heart is forever restless until it rests in Thee, O
God."
Application
Sometimes in life, when we are broken and seems like life is meaningless, we
need to experience a direct confrontation with God. The best approach in life is to empty
our burdens before the feet of Jesus.
One thing for sure, Jesus is and will always be interested in every affair of our
life. Jesus’ goal and will for us is to experience a life that is free from the rule of the evil
one. Jesus’ desire for us is to appreciate a life that is directed by the Holy Spirit.
When we come to Jesus, He will provide us with living water...a spiritual
satisfaction...a spiritual contentment that we cannot find anywhere else, nor the world
can provide.
Let us be mindful that when we “Offer Christ” to the people around us, that
means we offer hope, redemption, new meaning in life, and transformation.
Amen!

3/01/2020 "Overcomer"
Message by: Rev. Dr. Armando C. Arellano
Liturgist: Bill Mabel
Sermon Notes:
Scripture: Matthew 4:1-11
Introduction:
Wilderness - a land not suited for farming. Wilderness land was too dry, rough, or rocky to be cultivated, but it was sufficient for grazing (Gen. 14:6; Ex. 3:18). Occasionally, the word wilderness means "desert."
Main Point:
- Blasphemy is the disrespectful use of the name of one or more gods. 1a: the act of insulting or showing contempt or lack of reverence for God. 1b: the act of claiming the attributes of deity. 2: irreverence toward something considered sacred or inviolable. Sometimes the word "blasphemy" is used loosely to mean any profane language.
+ Worshiping another god/s
+ Serving another master
+ Pretending/acting like God
Application:
"You may have to fight a battle more than once to win it." -Margaret Thatch
Jesus used the written word of God to overcome every temptation along his way. Our devotion to God's word and its promises will help us fight a good fight every time we face temptation. We might lose a fight against the tempter, but Jesus' victory over the tempter will assure us victory as well.
When the tempter strikes, remember the words of Jesus. When the devil comes, run to Jesus. When the tempter roams around, walk with Jesus. Amen!

2/2/2020 Momentum in Life, Part 1: "Mass in Motion"
Message by: Rev. Dr. Armando C. Arellano
Sermon Notes:
Scripture: 1 Corinthians 9:24-27
Main Points:
- D-R-I-V-E (an excerpt from the book "Momentum for Life" by Rev. Dr. Michael Slaughter, Lead Pastor and Chief Dreamer of Ginghamsburg United Methodist Church in Tipp City, Ohio).
- D- Stands for Devotion. This is the spiritual element. Many persons of faith lack depth and prophetic clarity because their devotional lives are superficial.
- R- Represents Readiness for lifelong learning. This is the intellectual element. As a disciple of Jesus, (the word disciple means "learner"). Many people stop learning once they've received a diploma. Thats one reason people lose their effectiveness and relevance in their communities of worship or their work places. They simply quit learning. They have grown redundant and boring, having nothing new to say or offer. Any of us can grow similarly stale unless we remain committed to expanding our horizons, and that is exactly what this discipline is designed to accomplish.
- I- Denotes Investing in key relationships, beginning with your family. This is the interpersonal element. "All people are equally important to God, but not all are equally strategic for the expenditure of your time for God's purpose."
- V- Indicates a Vision for the future. This is the missional element. If you have no future pictures, you'll live in the past. Your actions wil be random, your movement aimless. It's critical that you have vision, because you become your life picture.
- E- Stand for Eating and Exercise. This is the physical element. Sustaining momentum for life requires spiritual, social, and intellectual discipline, but you've got to make sure your body will be around for the future you've envisioned, Obesity is a leading cause of preventable death in America. with deaths attributed to this disease numbering hundreds of thousands a year. I don't want to add to that total, and I've come to realize that, as part of my daily D-R-I-V-E regimen, eating and exercising are as spiritual as they are physical.
Philippians 3:13-14
Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus. Amen!
