Arriola Bible Church

This morning in The Gospel Project we look at Acts 24, 25, & 26, Paul Before Rulers. Mark K. teaches us that God calls us to be more concerned about others' salvation than about our own situation.

This morning our guest preacher is Darrel; and he takes us to John 8 where we will see that the prerequisites for truth and freedom are found in abiding and discipleship.

This morning Frank teaches from Acts 23 where we see how Paul deals with being persecuted and facing a trial. We see that Paul leans on the resurrection hope found in Christ as the only source of Christian courage.

This morning we continue our study in the book of Psalms and find ourselves looking at Psalm 95. Our God is so glorious that He is worthy of constant praise. Constant worship. So join in with the throng – sing and shout, come into His presence… today… now…

This morning we look at faith and Hebrews 11 – the hall of fame of faith. Faith is what we are all about and yet so often we misunderstand faith. Today we will, using many verses and Hebrews 11, get a firm grasp on this most wonderful thing called faith.

This morning in our continuing short journey through the Psalms, we look at Psalm 32. This Psalm was written by David following one of the darkest times in his life. He was living in sin and the weight it of was too much to bear. Fortunately, God always provides help and hope for the believer, even in the darkest of sinful situations.

This week in the Gospel Project we will be looking at the Armor of God from Ephesians 6. Spiritual warfare is real, demons are real, Satan is real and God has made it very clear how a believer can combat the evil one and thwart his plan.

This morning we get ready for our annual Family Camp here at Arriola Bible Church. Our theme this year is The Songs of the Fellowship – a study in Psalms. We will get an overview of the Psalms and then read through a few getting a feel for the beauty and splendor of the Psalms.

This morning in our study of the Gospel Project we look at Galatians 5 and see how believers ought to walk. Not in the flesh, but in the Spirit. In the age of grace, on this side of the cross, it is all about fruit. But not man made fruit. This is the Fruit of the Spirit. Fruit that comes from a transformed new heart.

This morning Youth Pastor Trevor Jones preaches from Psalm 1, which teaches us that life is about choosing, and that choosing sets one on a path that has incredible consequences: both good and bad. Choose wisely.

Once Apart, Now Together. That is the title of this week's lesson in The Gospel Project. Without God: apart from Him, apart from the church, no purpose. With God: fellowship with Him (close, intimate fellowship), a place to belong in the church, a purpose, a mission and a point to life. Jesus changes it all!

As we finish up Hebrews 7, we see once again how Jesus is better than the Old Testament priests. We see the fullness, the completeness, the totality and the security of salvation in Jesus.

This week we continue to see how God has transformed His people. We come to this glorious truth: Once Slaves, Now Children. Our newness requires a new identity and we find one as adopted children of God.

This morning we see the insufficiency of the Levitical Priesthood and then the sufficiency of the Melchizedek Priesthood – a priesthood that is forever, better and comes with a promise from God.

How does the church function? What takes place in the church? What do we do? These answers are given in the Bible – our guide for all we need for life and practice.

This morning we begin to study Hebrews 7 where we are re-introduced to Melchizedek and learn more about Jesus being better than the Old Testament system of not only sacrifice, but also the priesthood.

This morning we study 1 John 3 - Love in Action. Is there anything more significant for the believer than to love one another? "You will know them by their love" Jesus said.

One more week we find ourselves in Hebrews 6. This week the author concludes his argument concerning better things with this: hope. Hope that is found in Jesus, who is the Anchor of Our Souls.

This morning in The Gospel Project we are looking at James 2. An ongoing battle in our world for believers is to banish favoritism and embrace love and mercy for all.

As we continue our study of Hebrews, we move forward with the argument found in chapter 6, that challenges us to move on, mature, embrace Jesus, not just for salvation but for life , and to pursue Better Things.
