I'm glad you're posting all of the past ones. It helps me keep track. Sometimes I think I've missed one and have to go back and reread it. It certainly lays out the doctrine very nicely.
I was interested in this verse:
"Once in a while, you should examine your heart to see just how well you are expressing your gratefulness, your thanksgiving and your humility."
So true. There's always a danger to take our faith for granted when it is such a precious gift given to us by God.

Very good sermon.You stated what was done,but not how on some points, lacking a few points that need futher explaining.
The fullfillment of the Law is Love. Greater love hath no man than this,That a man lay down his life for his freinds. John 15:13
Therefore Jesus died upon the cross for all. Therefore if we be dead in Jesus Christ, we are free(not dead) from the law.
And on The Lord Supper. It is written "Whoso eateth my flesh and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day." John 6:(53),54
Also it is written "And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us," which refers to Jesus.
Therefore if the Word of God was made flesh, and Jesus command us to eat. Therefore when I read, meditate, or study the Word of God, I am entering into the Lord's Supper. The bread(of life) represent Jesus, and the true bread(of life) is the Word of God, which was made flesh, Jesus himself. Just though you should know this.
