Bethel CRC LacombeMarch 20/22 GOOD NEWS: THE TEMPLE IS REBUILTWelcome to Bethel! Today is the third Sunday of Lent, and our theme is Good News. We are reflecting on John 2:13-22, Good News: The Temple is Rebuilt. There are a few things we would do well to understand as we approach this passage. The first is the fierce and holy passion behind Jesus’ extreme actions. The second is how spiritually dysfunctional the Jerusalem temple had become. Jesus came into our fallen world as the true temple that would link heaven and earth. This temple would be destroyed and re...2022-03-2126 min

It’s not one of those feel-good messages that make you jump and shout. However, it is a Clarion Call to us so that we may re-align ourselves with His plan so that we can complete the work that He has called us to in these last days.2020-08-2439 minBethel Temple Church"RE" Series - Re-Focus“Re,” which is a prefix that means, “again; anew.” God has a particular affinity for “R-E” verbs as throughout the Scriptures we find many words that begin with this prefix. Words such as Restore, Redeem, Repent, Rebuild, Revive, Renew, Return, Remind, Repair, Refresh and the list goes on. Whatever you are facing, if you Focus on the circumstances, they will overwhelm and overpower you. However, if you Re-Focus on Jesus even in the midst of the storm, He will not allow you to sink.2020-08-1740 minBethel Temple ChurchNo You Turn - The Direction for Success “No You Turn,” is a play on words with regard to the “U”. There is Y-O-U, the Individual and “U” the Direction. Up to this point in our series the focus has been on the Y-O-U, the Individual as we have been encouraged to Glance at our past, but to Look toward the future In other words Remember (What happened in the past?), Reflect (What lesson did you learn?), Refocus (What is ahead in the future?). As it relates to Direction, there are two secrets to success: Turn to the Sovereign God, and Turn Away From Worthless Idols. 2020-07-2738 minBethel Temple ChurchNo You Turn – Fulfilling the Purpose of your CallingWhen we consider the words, “No You Turn,” there is a contrast between the “old” and the “new,” or “what was” and “what will be.” The original Jacob was known for being a deceiver. The contrasting reference to Jeshurun the upright is an indication that a transformation has taken place. Instead of God seeing His people as Jacob the Deceiver (what was), He is seeing them as Jeshurun the Upright (what will be), thus fulfilling the purpose of their calling. 2020-07-2036 minBethel Temple ChurchNo You Turn – It’s About the Praise!Our testimony makes us thankful for what the Lord has done in our past. Throughout the Old Testament, we find numerous passages where God reminds his people that He called them, He desired relationship with them, and what He did for them. Reminders serve several purposes: they help us to learn God’s Character; reminders of past victories give encouragement for future victories; they remind us of what He has done, so we can remember who He is. Ultimately, reminders are vital because they help us remember that we were created to declare His glory. In other words…It’s All About...2020-07-1337 minBethel Temple ChurchNo You Turn – Factory Reset!Pastor Ron DeBerry, Discipleship Pastor talks about our need for a Factory Reset.

The Prophet Isaiah declared in Isaiah 43:19, “See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.” To “Behold,” means, “to fix the eyes upon; to see with attention; to observe with care.” Although this is not a word that we use often in our everyday vernacular, it is used over twelve hundred times throughout the Scripture. Behold alerts us...2020-06-2929 minBethel Temple ChurchNo You Turn – It’s All About FAITH!Every now and again in our walk with Christ, we take a need to take quick glances in the rearview mirror of our lives. It is in those glances that we realize that it is only by the grace of God that we made it through. We are reminded that our faith helped to guide us, and it is also our faith that ensures that we have NO Y-O-U TURNS.2020-06-2239 minBethel Temple ChurchNo You Turn - Glance, But Don't GazeThe purpose of a “No U-turn” sign is to prevent illegal turns. Making illegal turns have the potential to create dangerous situations for both drivers and pedestrians alike. We are presented with a similar challenge when faced with unexpected or unplanned situations in life. Such situations can cause us to look back and even romanticize the past. Every now and then, we should take a peek in our rearview mirror in order to see what’s behind so we don’t make a wrong turn, but to truly move forward, we just can’t gaze too long.2020-06-1540 minBethel Temple ChurchWhat Does The Lord Require?We are living in a time where there are many questions. There are questions about what is right or wrong…what we should do or shouldn’t do. Everybody has an opinion and everyone has a voice that is demanding to be heard. The voice that we need to be listening for is the voice of the Lord. The question that we should be asking is, “What Does the Lord Require?” When we do, it forces us to begin searching exactly what that is. We can find the answer in Micah 6:8.2020-06-0937 minBethel Temple ChurchPentecost Sunday – “It’s Celebration Time”After his resurrection, Jesus commanded his disciples to stay in Jerusalem and wait for the Promise of the Father. The promise was fulfilled on the Day of Pentecost according to Acts 2:3-4. All who were assembled in the Upper Room were filled with the Holy Spirit, they became witnesses to Jesus, people started getting saved, and the Christian Church was born.2020-06-0233 minBethel Temple ChurchReady. Set. Go — It’s Not About You!Unlike a champion runner who is competing for a personal reward, a believer’s call to action is to win souls. This winning is not about personal recognition, but it’s all about Jesus.2020-05-2740 minBethel Temple ChurchMother’s Day 2020 — Mothers: Created from the Master’s HandEven though mothers are producers of life, our Heavenly Father created us for His purpose through His Son, Jesus Christ. Many times during seasons of trial, we have a tendency to think that God has changed his mind about us. Our suffering is not always an indication of God’s judgment. The season that we are in may be bitter, but when we trust the fullness of God’s character, it helps us to understand that the purpose of it is to make us better.2020-05-2720 minBethel Temple ChurchReady. Set. Go — Go (Maintenance Phase)In the Maintenance Phase, the goal of the runner is to maintain acceleration and minimize deceleration. In other words, the runner has to summon all of his power and strength to maintain his top-end speed until he reaches the finish line. It is the Holy Spirit that fuels believers and keeps us from fading. It is the Holy Spirit that enables us to run our race victoriously to the finish line.2020-05-2739 minBethel Temple ChurchReady. Set. Go — Go (Maximum Velocity Phase)Most people want to think of themselves as being a “Good Person.” However, being “good” isn’t good enough. Jesus didn’t die to make us good. He died to Reconcile our broken Relationship with the Father and to make us Righteous. In a believer’s Maximum Velocity Phase, we establish our mission more clearly—not only do we GO and preach the Gospel to someone, but it is necessary to preach the Gospel to everyone because everyone has a need for a Savior.2020-05-2737 minBethel Temple ChurchReady. Set. Go — Go (Drive Phase)We are living in a unique season in which what was normal is no longer familiar. Our new normal is characterized by fear, frustration, hopelessness, and separation. As a result, many people’s hearts have become tender for the Gospel. In our Drive Phase, our mandate is to PREACH THE GOSPEL.2020-05-2736 minBethel Temple ChurchReady. Set. Go — Get Set (Part 2)This week’s message will focus on the last two steps that help us maintain laser focus that’s needed to get set: (4) Keep His Commandments; and (5) Pursue Holiness.2020-05-2735 minBethel Temple ChurchReady. Set. Go — Get Set (Part 1)The next phase in the runner’s process is “getting set.”: Although runners are not in a race alone, it is their individual race to run. In the set position, focus is critical as the runner is listening for the starter’s gun in order to explode out of the blocks. This week’s message will focus on three of five steps to get set: (1) Get Your Mind Right; (2) Exercise Self-Control; (3) Hope in Grace.2020-05-2739 minBethel Temple ChurchReady. Set. Go. — Get ReadyBefore a race begins, there are a few things that a runner must do to get ready. This process parallels to our calling to The Great Commission. The most important part of a race is the start because many times, how we finish can be determined by how we start. To get ready, a runner must do three things: be anchored, rely on power, and get in position.2020-05-2640 min
