How to Lose Your Religion

March 31, 2016 by Brad Murphy

The Resurrection of Jesus Christ on the morning of the first Easter, not only broke the seal of Jesus’ tomb, but it also broke the seal of bondage that religion and sin use to enslave people.

Galatians 2:16 | …we know that a person is not justified by works of the law but through faith in Jesus Christ…

The True Gospel of Jesus Christ will #SetFREE everyone who repents and believes.  No religious ritual will save you.

Ephesians 2:8-9 | For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, 9 not a result of works, so that no one may boast. 

In this first episode of our series #SetFreeEagle from Galatians you will learn to understand the True Gospel so that you can maintain the true freedom of Christ, in this world.  Here are Three Lessons that will help you lose your religion.

reBUILD in the Face of Fear

March 18, 2016 by Brad Murphy

Fear can be crippling. If the enemy of your soul can cause you to live in a spirit of fear, then he will be able to stop you from reBUILDING your faith, your heart, your marriage, your family, or your community.

There are three typical responses to fear:

  • Flight
  • Fight
  • Freeze

In today’s message from Nehemiah 6:5-14, we learn a Godly approach for handling public & private attacks of fear.

reBUILD in the Face of Distraction

March 6, 2016 by Brad Murphy

The story of Nehemiah is the story of a person called by God, who knew the mission, and understood the honor that his life could bring to God. In the process God used Nehemiah to reBUILD a city and inspire a people.

https://eaglelifechurch.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/2016-03-06-Nehemiah-6.1-4-Distraction.mp3

When God puts it in your heart to reBUILD your life, your family, or your community, you can be sure that the enemy of God will use anything and everything he can to stop you from renewing hope. In today’s sermon from Nehemiah 6:1-4, we learn about the enemy’s tactic of distraction and how to stand firm.

And I sent messengers to them, saying,
“I am doing a great work and I cannot come down.
Why should the work stop while I leave it and come down to you?” – Nehemiah 6:3

Identify Distractions by Asking Four Questions:

  • Why should the work you are doing stop? Or should it?

1 Chronicles 8:12 | 2 Corinthians 11:12-15 | 1 Peter 5:8-9 | John 10:10 | Matthew 7:13-14
