July 14 2021 | Pastor Nathan Elms • God created Lucifer to be a worshipper, but through choice for self, and self-worship, Lucifer chose self over God, and created satan. • Evil is birthed out of serving self. • The way that created beings rebel against God, is to worship self. • Luke 6:45 states that out of our "heart" also called "self" comes evil and wrong motivations. • Sinful humanity, which is all humans, can only be redeemed with the good news of the Gospel. • The Kingdom of Satan, which is the Kingdom of self, is always inviting humans to join the exaltation of self. • The Gospel provides willing humanity a covering of the righteousness of Jesus the Messiah, which saves us from the destruction caused by the worship of self. • The first step of the Gospel is the humbling of self. • The only hope for humanity is to humble self, exalt God, and to prefer and serve others. http://nathanelms.com/ https://youtu.be/esNWkknNi74 https://firstchurchclt.com/

June 13, 2021 | Rev. Omar Jolly • Blindness was common at the time that Jesus walked among us while in Bethsaida. • The god of this world has blinded the understanding of many to the Gospel of Jesus Christ. • As the Lord Jesus did, the miracle of the giving of sight was shown in Mark 8:22-25 in a progressive way until clarity comes, as it happens to many of in the realm of Spiritual awakenings. This was only miracle done by Jesus which wasn't complete the first time. • As shown, sight or perception doesn't always come instantly. He is the God of the second touch. • The reason that Jesus came was to help us see, as God intends us to see. • As valuable is our physical sight, every human also has spiritual eyes which the Holy Spirit wants to open and begin to perceive the Kingdom of God. • Real friends will lead us to abundant life, and take us to Jesus, and love us in spite of our shortcomings. • When we aren't seeing correctly, the Lord is willing to touch us again. • There is nothing like having one on One

June 6, 2021 | Rev. Jonathan Moran Matt. 14:22 The Lord can walk on top of the very things that can destroy us. It is difficult for us to sometimes know the voice of the Lord during our storms. A great test for anything that we do is this: Is it drawing us closer to Jesus or away from Him? At what point do we realize and believe that Jesus can do anything? When we come to grips that the same God Who spoke order into chaos, can also speak peace into our chaos, and that He loves us, then good things can begin to happen. True faith is always followed by action, but fear will make us fail. Be willing to risk faith, and take a step towards Jesus Christ, our lives will change for the better. https://firstchurchclt.com/ https://youtu.be/yVHcd0kRSqc

May 26, 2021 | Pastor Nathan Elms The power of a parent's blessing on their child is shown in the fact that even the man Christ Jesus was blessed publicly by the God the Father. https://firstchurchclt.com/

May 19, 2021 | Bishop David Elms We have to be willing to fight and win, although our fight is not against people. Jesus was born so that humanity could win our spiritual battles and temptations that come against us. God wants all of humanity to become overcomers. Our weapons include prayer in Holy Spirit, fasting, worship and our faith. Once born into the Kingdom of God through the Gospel, we are given authority & power to win the fight of our lives through Jesus Christ.
