We receive our training from the very words of God. Those of us who are in physical training and spiritual training must keep ourselves pure. We will not be pure until we are mastered by Christ and no longer mastered by our sin. We must take every thought captive for Christ and turn from our sin.If you trust Christ, you will finish your race. http://www.sermoncloud.com/FCC316/fighting-a-good-fight http://media.monkserve.com/EKK/862/fighting-a-good-fight.mp3 Sun, 27 Apr 2008 15:14:05 CDT Eric Koenig New Testament race,hope,fight,good,pure,mastered,sin,training,captive,christ 45:53 Are you hungering for the living god and for his word?

He was persecuting Christians. He was an instrument that God could use. Once he met the risen lord he was never the same again.

His eyes and hope was fixed on his Savior Jesus Christ. http://www.sermoncloud.com/FCC316/pressing-on-towards-the-goal http://media.monkserve.com/EKK/862/pressing-on-towards-the-goal.mp3 Sun, 09 Mar 2008 16:06:09 CDT Eric Koenig New Testament self,fixed,eyes,future,past,columbus,prize,heaven,hope,goal,press 34:46 The Lord's supper is the time that we set aside to remember what Christ has done for us. Do we really contemplate all that Jesus did for us? During communion time, do we make it about us or about Jesus? May each one of us take a step back and glorify God for what he has done for us in Christ. http://www.sermoncloud.com/FCC316/the-lords-supper-remembering-the-lamb-that-was-slain http://media.monkserve.com/EKK/862/the-lords-supper-remembering-the-lamb-that-was-slain.mp3 Sun, 10 Feb 2008 21:00:12 CST Eric Koenig Special Sermons communion,lord's_supper,passover,lamb,crucify,love,hope,forgiveness,blood,throne,heaven,thorns,crown,romans,death,juice,bread 37:25 The teaching of Evolution has convinced this world that we are nothing more then animals. Should we be surprised when humans act like animals? We will find value in life once we realize we are all made in the image of God. He made us to be like him. Life is Precious because God knows us and loves us. We have hope and peace because Christ Jesus died and was raised from the dead for us. http://www.sermoncloud.com/FCC316/life-is-precious http://media.monkserve.com/EKK/862/life-is-precious.mp3 Sun, 03 Feb 2008 23:38:17 CST Eric Koenig Special Sermons life,precious,hope,grace,peace,abortion,heaven,knows,loves 30:36 Do we fix our eyes on Jesus in the Midst of our worries? The reason we worry is that we take our eyes off of Jesus. Peter sunk in the water when he took his eyes off of Jesus. It will be the same way for us. We must fix our eyes on jesus, the author and perfector of our faith. http://www.sermoncloud.com/FCC316/casting-our-cares-upon-him http://media.monkserve.com/EKK/862/casting-our-cares-upon-jesus.mp3 Sun, 27 Jan 2008 16:01:24 CST Eric Koenig Sermon on the Mount worry,anxiety,peace,hope,jesus,god,trust,peter,eyes,sunk,faith 34:59 Are you storing up treasures on earth that are temporary?

Jesus called John the greatest man born of woman. It wasn't because of his appearance, or how much money he had, It was because he submitted his life to Christ as we are all to do. The kingdom of heaven is near, just like it was in John's day. Jesus is coming soon the question is will we be ready. Will we be able to say that we have allowed Jesus to be more and self to be less? http://www.sermoncloud.com/FCC316/the-forerunner-john-the-baptist http://media.monkserve.com/EKK/862/the-forerunner-john-the-baptist.mp3 Sun, 09 Dec 2007 13:05:09 CST Eric Koenig New Testament john_the_baptist,deny,self,repent,zecheriah,jesus,baby,born,gabriel,message,legacy 43:14 No one is Righteous without Christ, We are saved by Grace and not by works, Salvation is only found in Christ. http://www.sermoncloud.com/FCC316/amazing-grace-how-sweet-the-sound http://media.monkserve.com/EKK/862/amazing-grace-how-sweet-the-sound.mp3 Sun, 02 Dec 2007 15:31:47 CST Eric Koenig New Testament wilburforce,grace,works,salvation,righteous,garden,amazing,christ,saved,newton,john,will,jesus 45:10 It is just as true now as it was in Malachi's time.

We are clay in the hands of the potter, are we allowing him to transform us and make us into the image he wants us to be. In the midst of suffering there is hope. The messiah was on the horizen in the midst of the Israelites suffering. That is what Paul knew. To live is Christ and to die is gain.
