Our nation has passed over 30,000 laws since 1789, and we are adding somewhere 1,000 new laws each year! Many of these laws infringe upon our liberties and freedoms. Sadly, our nation is becoming what our Founding Fathers freed us from, tyranny. Harold Smith and Wade Lentz discuss the repercussions when a government tries to make everything their business.

Abundant Life Episode 44 In this episode Saso and Ben discuss how Christians can be content with God, because God is enough. Enough - That satisfies desire, or gives content; that may answer the purpose; that is adequate to the wants. - Websters 1828 Key Verse Philippians 4:19 This is such a powerful truth, God is more than enough, because if it is true, which it is, it means we that we should be trusting God to meet our every need. Yet, we have this nasty sin called unbelief that leads us down a dark path into further sin. We are living in a time where many so called believers are bible illiterate. The reality is that many Christians don’t know the truths and promises of God found in scripture and therefore they fall victim to unbelief. They simply don’t believe God is enough. Rather we are bombarded by ads that tell us we deserve more, we are plagued with instant gratifications that social media brings, we place our hopes in an elected official, we commit sin and feed our flesh because we simply don’t believe that God is more than enough. It’s interesting that the scripture deals with this idea of unbelief and in fact we did an episode on the topic of unbelief, episode 17 to be specific. Unbelief is like a cancer for unbelievers as the scriptures tell us that Satan blinds them from seeing the light of the gospel. 2 Corinthians 4:4 This speaks of unbelievers, but Satan does this same thing to believers to keep them as if they were still in bondage. It’s like the Andy Griffith show where Otis grabs the jail cell key hanging from the wall and lets himself out of jail. Christians have been forgiven and have been freed from the bondage of sin, yet we live like as if we were still in bondage. Christian, do you deal with unbelief? Do you believe that God is more than enough? Or are you discontent? Do you lust for more? Are you intrigued by the world? Throughout the Bible we see this theme of unbelief and it all started in the garden of eden. Adam and Eve chose to believe the lie of Satan that God wasn’t enough, they wanted more, they wanted to be like God. And in single act of sin, Adam brought down the human race into sin. Genesis 3:1-7 Lucifer was cast out of heaven with one third of the angels as he lusted to be greater than God. Just like Adam and Eve, we are ruined by our own hearts as we lust for more because both discontentment and covetousness are both rooted in unbelief. The apostle John warned us about this. He told us not to lust for the shiny things of this world, but instead trust and obey God. 1 John 2:15-17 The problem Our problem is that we get our eyes off of God and we then put our focus on ourselves. We look at ourselves, our circumstances, our failures, our sin, our short comings. We compare ourselves to others. We are by nature selfish and we love to think about ourself and how we can live our best life now. Joel Olsteen's book, Your Best Life Now is a lie, your best life is only for believers and will come when you are in glory with our savior Jesus. We complain and grumble and we believe the lie that God is not enough or that God is not in control, or that God doesn’t love me, or that God doesn’t bless me. It’s this unbelief that drives us to a place of discontentment. Once we reach that point we start looking for fleshly things that will satisfy us. We then simply seek to feed our flesh and please ourselves which is always through some sort of sin. Not everyone sins the same, not everyone is tempted by the same sin, but we all have fleshly desires and our bent and bondage toward sin can only be broken by Jesus. The problem with that is that the flesh can’t be satisfied with things of the world. God is the only one that can satisfy our souls. He is the one that gives peace to our souls. He is the one that gives us joy. He gives us comfort. He gives us the power to say no to sin. He is the one that truly gives us contentment and satisfaction.

Almost every American will agree that the past two years under the Biden administration have been difficult, to say the least. We are worse off morally, economically, militarily, and in many other areas. Still, we have many evangelical leaders across our country who are voicing their opinion as to why they are #NeverTrump voters and why everyone should be as well. Pastors Harold Smith and Wade Lentz disagree with this logic, and in this episode, they give their reasons why they believe you need to reject this #NeverTrump movement in 2024.

Abundant Life Episode 43 In this episode Saso and Ben discuss the how Christians must place their hope in God in times of discouragement and life's trials. OPENED - Unclosed; unbarred; unsealed; uncovered; revealed; disclosed; made plain; freed from obstruction. - Websters 1828 Key Verses 2 Kings 6:15-17 Elisha’s servant was troubled with the armies that had encompassed them about, but Elisha was not fearful as he was able to see the presence and protection of God. “Fear not: for they that be with us are more than they that be with them.” Romans 4:19-21 The promise he was referring to is the promise given to Abraham that through Him all of the families of the earth would be blessed. God in a sense had opened his eyes to the promise He had given him where he could visualize and see the great nation that would come from him. The opening of our eyes is the faith we must have in God to see the great things He has promised us and the great hope we have in Him. Sometimes these emotions come with the trials of life. What are the giants in your life? What do you fear? What makes you feel hopeless? What makes you anxious? Sickness, disease, cancer, terminal illness Personal offense, someone said/did something to hurt you Personal loss, home lost in fire or natural disaster Loss of loved one Divorce or marital problems Elections & Economy Rumors of wars Midlife crisis You’ve committed that same sin again that has you ensnared or a sinful habit that you can’t kick Difficult boss at work, or difficult co-workers The scriptures not only speak truth and give you hope, but the scriptures are so relatable. The book of Psalms is always a comfort to me whether you are on the mountain of life or in the valley because there is something you can always relate with. Psalm 38 is a lament when you lay your troubles at the feet of Jesus realizing your sin has brought on the trouble and you are discouraged. Psalm 38:17. Psalm 42, is a lament when you are oppressed and persecuted and discouraged. Psalm 42:11 Psalm 73 is a Psalm of wisdom written by Asaph sharing his thoughts of discouragement as he observed the prosperity of the wicked. Psalm 73:2 Here are more examples in scripture that you can relate to when you are discouraged or feeling hopeless. Elijah was in the midst of a drought and God commanded him to go and ask a widow to feed him. The widow basically had nothing left, except a little bit of flour and she was basically preparing for her and her son to die of hunger. She must have been fearful and discouraged. In fact this is what she said: 1 Kings 17:12 Goliath the philistine was taunting the Israelites because he was a mighty warrior, a confident giant. Although we know how the story ends, the fact of the matter is that the soldiers were scared and discouraged. 1 Samuel 17:11 Elijah had just experience a great victory when God consumed his alter and then he slayed 450 prophets of Baal. But after the great victory he ran for his life after Jezebell threatened his life. 1 Kings 19:4 Can you imagine how fearful and discouraged the Israelites were as they were trapped between Red Sea and Egyptian army expecting to be executed? Exodus 14:10 How about Joseph and Mary fleeing to Egypt to avoid Herod's vicious execution of young boys in attempt to kill Jesus. Imagine the fear and discouragement? Can you imagine what Mary would have thought? Fear not Haggai 2:4-5 - Yet now be strong, O Zerubbabel, saith the Lord; and be strong, O Joshua, son of Josedech, the high priest; and be strong, all ye people of the land, saith the Lord, and work (building of the temple): for I am with you, saith the Lord of hosts: According to the word that I covenanted with you when ye came out of Egypt, so my spirit remaineth among you: fear ye not. 2 Timothy 1:7 Isaiah 41:10 Isaiah 41:13 Trials of life 1 Corinthians Paul had gone through the ringer to the point where he faced de...
