Bristol Hope AssemblyThe Responsibility of Man
After the fall of man, God asks a fundamental question: “Where are you Adam?”
Adam or Mankind is to issue a response. The spiritual and holistic answer is not simply: “here I am.” It is “I am here, send me.” Humanity’s nature ordained by God is to bear RESPONSIBILITY. Many Believers stop at being saved; salvation is only the beginning. One must follow salvation with an attitude of “I bear responsibility.” The question remains: “Responsibility for what?”
If you can’t answer that question, it would be good to attend this Sunday’s service. If you can answer it, it would be good to see if...2021-09-2646 minBristol Hope AssemblyBe Abnormal Especially During Abnormal Times

Striving. Seeking favor. Proving. Legalism. Fatigue. Weariness.Trying to combat sin and failing. These are all attributes which are results stemming from one not knowing their identity in Messiah.
For years, I thought I understood what it meant to be a son or daughter of God. The unfortunate reality is many know the right language but not the correct expression of the relationship.

Is mediocracy a sin…?
Like all things, it depends on the posture of the heart. The spiritual truth is the Lord has not called you to be mediocre nor does He want you to choose a mediocre life. This is a fundamental theme in the Bible. You are a special people; the head not the tail; more than a conqueror in Christ Jesus. A strange and peculiar people; sons and daughters; priests.

A fundamental stone which is being marginalized, attacked, and torn down in the modern era is the family, the home, and the relationships within. This is not an accident, but rather, a byproduct of busyness, deflection and apathy.
Some may wish to caste blame on culture, public education, or television. The fact of the matter is we must once again look to the Church at large and determine if sons and daughters have been diligently taking their role in the home seriously.
The Church begins in the home. This is more than family prayer time!

245 years ago America was born. Today, our nation celebrates its inception, and looks to its future. A nation—by the people, for the people and of the people is a magnificent blessing. But, as followers of Messiah, we must look deeper.
What is Liberty? How does one use it? These questions need to be interpreted through the Spirit.
Unfortunately, many have an image of liberty in their walk, but a deep transformation of liberty needs to be made manifest. Liberty, freedom are not just words. They are foundational aspects to the Christian walk.

What if the Western Church’s view of abundance is misguided? What if the disciples of Christ have not fully understood the appropriate view of biblical abundance?
This Sunday, Pastor David will teach on the need to “periodically revisit our understanding of abundance.”
No, abundance is not evil. Likewise, it is not an end sum game of increasing one’s bank account. Abundance is a spiritual principle. Out of overflowing one can impact the community. Let us revisit the Theology of Abundance. It is not bad, it is not good. It is neutral until one stewards the abundance as did King Sol...2021-05-021h 11Bristol Hope AssemblyRuth Hendrickson – Freedom is Your Birthright
If freedom is our birthright, how do we access it? Why do we stand outside the door of our destiny when God invites us in to dream with Him? As we journey through life, we pick up baggage that we are not made to carry. Is there an answer that we may be missing? Is there a way to become free and enter into His presence?

Redux: to be brought back; revived.
This Sunday Pastor David continues last week’s sermon on Higher Ground. The Lord is calling His bride into a place of transformation. In Scripture, transformations through experiencing the Father often occurs through a mountain experience. Through an ascent.
Yes, as Believers, we do ascend the hill of the Lord. But, through the coming of Jesus there is a revelation of the paradigm of holiness and transformation. Transformation now comes through the Son descending to earth.
To transform is to first recognize His descent to earth and the revelation for His pursuit.

Heirlooms: those physical items which are handed down to family members through the generations. Most families have one, a knick-knack or a valued object. Many times, it comes with a story, a memory from the past.
In the Spirit, there are heirlooms in our faith which have been handed down through the generations. The problem is many in the church prefer the new trend, the flashy and the modern. There is nothing wrong with this, but it is a problem if one forgets about the heirloom of heritage of our spiritual ancestors.
In agriculture, there...2020-07-2600 minBristol Hope AssemblyJesus: Rabbi
Rabbi: teacher or great one.
Jesus is the Son of God, and He was a carpenter. Yet, in the culture of first century Israel, He was also called Rabbi. To be a rabbi, one needs students or disciples. What does it mean to call Jesus Rabbi? In turn, what does it mean to be called a disciple?
This week, Pastor David will culminate the “Rediscovering Jesus” sermon series on understanding the paradigm of Rabbi and student.
Today, there is a spirit on earth which has created a “Self-Imposed Leper Colony”. This spirit binds men’s hea...2020-07-1900 minBristol Hope AssemblyJonathan Pasquale – Own Your Street

One of the most familiar titles of Jesus is Son of God. But yet, it is a title in which many do not understand the depth, the importance and the implications of such a title. Why would God, the Father, display His character though a Son? And, what does this now mean for us? It is more than a mystery; it is a display of our relationship with the Father.

One of my favorite elements of the biblical text are christophanies. A christophany is a visible manifestation or appearance of Christ before His human incarnation. Meaning, Jesus showing up in the older testament. Many believe that when the Angel of the Lord is manifested in the Bible, it is Jesus Himself. There is quite compelling evidence that this in fact true.
By viewing Jesus in the older testament, we can see some of His nature that is sometimes missed when only seeing Jesus in the New Testament.
The Hebrew word for Angel simply means Messenger...2020-06-1400 minBristol Hope AssemblyRediscovering Jesus: The Living Stone in an Age of Fragility
In the past several months, the world has seen the fragility of the foundation stones in which the world constructs. These foundation stones to the world: financial prosperity, healthcare, systems of government, and the rights given to citizens, are all noble creations. They are founded on biblical principles, and the Lord sees value in them. But, when man lays his own foundation stones, they are movable, fragile and not longstanding. Quickly these stones can break down due to their inherent fragility.
There is a better stone; a living stone, a cornerstone which is Jesus. This stone is...2020-06-0700 minBristol Hope AssemblyRediscovering Jesus: He Who Tore the Veil
Jesus bore our sin and purchased a new relationship with the Father: free from sin, abundant in life and a reconciliation between mankind. There is yet a power and an authority that Jesus released: He is the one who tore the veil in the Temple. Upon Jesus’ last words “It is finished”, the veil in the temple that separated the Holy of Holies from the people was torn in two. This signified a release of the Holy Spirit upon the followers of Jesus which culminated in the book of Acts. This Sunday let us celebrate the outpouring of the Holy Spirit...2020-05-3100 minBristol Hope AssemblyRediscovering Jesus: The Lamb of God
To “Rediscover Jesus” is to know Him not by a mere title, but by His position. A position displays an authority and a need. Jesus, as Lamb of God, displays both an authority and a need. Why did Jesus need to come as a Lamb? Why a need for a blood sacrifice? Most importantly, why do you and I need a sacrifice to wipe away our sin?
These are all distinct realities to the Christian walk. Many of us know the answers to these questions. But this week, let us learn the depth to the answers of thes...2020-05-2100 minBristol Hope AssemblyRediscovering Jesus: The High Priest
Jose Diaz from Heart of David Movement teaches in our series on Rediscovering Jesus.
One of the most fascinating aspects of who Jesus is is knowing Him as High Priest. This beautiful revelation of Jesus tells us He is our mediator and faithful intercesor. However, Jesus instituted a new priestly order on the earth that is also governmental in its application. Jesus is our great King/Priest sitting at the right hand of the Father in intercession for the nations as His inheritance. 14 Therefore, since we have a great high priest who has ascended into heaven,[a] Jesus the...2020-05-1700 minBristol Hope AssemblyWhere the Blood is there Can Be No Fear

Often, God hides his treasures in the most unlikely vessels. What can a prostitute teach us about hope and more importantly, the God of hope? Surprisingly, this story found in Joshua 2 sets the tone for this extremely important theme in Scripture. In 1 Corinthians 13 Paul states that hope is a key aspects of our Christian life, but few understand what hope really is from a biblical perspective. More than a whimsical and fleeting desire, hope, properly understood, is a powerful force that pulls us into our future. “Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in...2020-02-2800 min

Second only to Jesus in his impact on the Kingdom of God, Paul was an unlikely Apostle. At first, he is the strongest in opposition to Jesus’ disciples but he becomes one of his most ardent followers. He goes from issuing both the prison and even death warrants to Believers, to one who compiles a large portion of the New Testament. What would lead this man to be one of Jesus’ “greatest Apostles”?

As believers in Jesus the messiah, we have permission to have great hope in the face of hopeless situations. We have permission to not despair, but to place our hope and trust in our Good-Savior-God. But often we find our hearts have become sick… so the place in ourselves where we want to trust God has become desolate.

Last Sunday we set aside our typical Sunday service routine and had a powerful time in God’s presence. We had a powerful time of prayer for Bristol, worship for the entire service. In this message we’ll dive into the topic of forgiveness. “Getting Serious about Forgiveness”
What is forgiveness? What is its purpose? Many people think about #forgiveness solely in terms of salvation: “God forgives me so I can go to heaven.” But forgiveness is a powerful gift from God that enables spiritual, emotional & relational freedom.

“Without vision, the people put off restraint” Proverbs 29:18. Vision is essential for health and growth to the Body of Messiah. An interesting example of this principle is seen with the Kodak company. Kodak was the leader of its field until it filed bankruptcy due to their failure. Their failure—they were blinded by their success.

a Message from Milly Adorno Villalobos
Who is #Jesus to you? Come learn with us this Sunday @ 10am – The Scriptures speak about Jesus from Genesis to Revelation, although there are so many man made beliefs and concepts as to who Jesus is or who Jesus was.
But the most important question to ask ourselves is “Who is Jesus to me?”

Jesus is the only way, the onl...2018-07-1600 minBristol Hope AssemblyRemoving The Masks Men Wear – Dave GreenockleIt has been said that there are 9 total masks (or images) that men hide behind. This is important because the masks hide the true nature of the Lord in you. Some include: the athletic mask, the know it all mask, and of course the stoic mask. They are a false image of what one presents before others to hide the true self. Unfortunately, this often is handed down to the next generation of young men who watch their male-role models adopt and hide behind a mask. Why hide? What are you trying to keep a secret?
