Elliott - Biblical Separation https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/ttw/sermons/417152027332 In the book of Ezra, God commanded the returning remnant of Israel to divorce their unbelieving spouses. In First Corinthians, Christians are told to remain in the marriage relationship with an unbelieving spouse. Why the difference? Why has God called believers in the Church to remain in the most intimate of human relationships with unbelievers?

In this message Dr. Elliott explains that Scripture actually says just the opposite.

Elliott - Biblical Separation https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/ttw/sermons/121314220175 First John chapter 2 tells us that three things – three vain and empty things – constitute the sum total of all that this present evil world can offer.

Elliott 0:26:10 no Dr. Paul M. Elliott - Biblical Separation https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/ttw/sermons/12714157372 Whether or not an individual is practicing Biblical separation, as Scripture defines it, is a key indicator of whether or not an individual is a Christian – a key indicator of whether or not an individual possesses the love of God. Where do we find this in the pages of Scripture? What does this mean for you, for your family, and for your church?

Elliott 0:26:10 no Dr. Paul M. Elliott - Biblical Separation https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/ttw/sermons/112214215436 In First John 2:15 Christians are told, literally, "Stop loving the world." What is the "world" that Christians are to stop loving? What is the nature of the love we are to stop practicing? Why is this command vital for every Christian? Stay tuned for the answers, as we continued our series of messages on the Biblical doctrine of separation. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/ttw/sermons/112214215436 Religion & Spirituality Sat, 22 Nov 2014 12:00:00 +0000 Dr. Paul M. Elliott 0:26:10 no Dr. Paul M. Elliott - Biblical Separation https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/ttw/sermons/111142133465 What does the love of God have to do with Biblical separation? In our time, many people think that Biblically separated living is an un-loving thing. But the Bible tells us that living a life that is separated from the world and separated unto God has everything to do with the great redeeming love of God in Christ, and it is the fitting response of the redeemed to that love. How does this apply to you, dear friend? Stay tuned for the answer, as we continue our series on the vital doctrine of Biblical separation. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/ttw/sermons/111142133465 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 02 Nov 2014 12:00:00 +0000 Dr. Paul M. Elliott 0:26:10 no Dr. Paul M. Elliott - Biblical Separation https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/ttw/sermons/102614020242 In I John 2:15 Christians are told "do not love the world." In the Gospel of John chapter 3 Jesus declares that "God so loved the world" that He gave His only begotten Son for its redemption. How are both things true, without paradox or contradiction? To answer this question, and to understand how the answer supports the doctrine of separation, we must first of all understand the meaning of the word "world" in its context in these passages. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/ttw/sermons/102614020242 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 26 Oct 2014 12:00:00 +0000 Dr. Paul M. Elliott 0:26:10 no Dr. Paul M. Elliott - Biblical Separation https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/ttw/sermons/101814221045 Today some false teachers in the church are saying that we can ignore the Bible's command to be separated from this present evil world and separated unto God, because, they say, there is a contradiction within the pages of Scripture. Is there paradox or contradiction within the pages of the Bible? And on such a basis, can we decide to accept some parts of the Bible but reject others? Stay tuned for the answers, as we continue our study of the great Biblical doctrine of separation. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/ttw/sermons/101814221045 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 19 Oct 2014 12:00:00 +0000 Dr. Paul M. Elliott 0:26:10 no Dr. Paul M. Elliott - Biblical Separation https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/ttw/sermons/823141038320 Today many professing Christians are following after a counterfeit "Jesus" who is not the true Christ of the Bible. We see the evidence of this in the lack of spiritual separation in much of the professing church. Jeremiah 17:9 tells us that "The heart is deceitful above all things and desperately wicked. Who can know it?" The answer is that God's Spirit knows our hearts. May His Spirit clear away deceptions and misconceptions about Christ that are keeping professing Christians in bondage to sin. May God's Word bring the true freedom that comes when we live lives that are separated from this present evil world, and separated unto our Lord and Savior, by the power of His Spirit. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/ttw/sermons/823141038320 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 24 Aug 2014 12:00:00 +0000 Dr. Paul M. Elliott 0:26:10 no Dr. Paul M. Elliott - Biblical Separation https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/ttw/sermons/815141627315 There is much confusion about spiritual separation in today's church. As a result, many people attending churches think they are saved, but they are not. Many are following Jesus as some sort of life example, success example, "life mentor", or "life coach", rather than believing on Him as their Savior from sin, and living a life that is separated from the world, and separated unto God. Oh, how we need to be sure of the truth about this vital doctrine. We see that truth most clearly when we look at the person of our Lord Jesus himself, during His years on this earth. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/ttw/sermons/815141627315 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 17 Aug 2014 12:00:00 +0000 Dr. Paul M. Elliott 0:26:10 no Dr. Paul M. Elliott - Biblical Separation https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/ttw/sermons/89141016193 Is Biblical separation optional for the Christian and the church? God's Word tells us that He has saved His people so that we might be spiritually separated from this present evil world, and prepared for glory. So many Christians and churches today treat this great doctrine as something optional – or even outmoded. But Scripture tells us that spiritual separation is not optional, but essential. Because God has taken those who were aliens from the world to come and has now made them its citizens, they are aliens in this present evil world. That must be a matter not only of position or status, but of demonstration by experience. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/ttw/sermons/89141016193 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 10 Aug 2014 12:00:00 +0000 Dr. Paul M.

Elliott - Biblical Separation https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/ttw/sermons/67142137510 As we study the history of the nation of Israel in the Old Testament and of the Christian church in the New Testament, we often find that spiritual compromise begins in the home. One of the most notable examples God has given us for our instruction, is in the history of the life of King Solomon of Israel. What lessons do we as Christians today need to learn from Solomon's compromises three thousand years ago? How can we avoid his downfall?

Elliott 0:26:10 no Dr. Paul M. Elliott - Biblical Separation https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/ttw/sermons/6114413583 In our time, many Christians and many churches have adopted the attitude that compromise with the world demonstrates humility. But God's Word tells us that compromise with the world actually involves pride on the part of a Christian or a church. The path of separation – separation from the world and separation unto God – is the path of true humility. How is this so? How then must we live?

Elliott 0:26:10 no Dr. Paul M. Elliott - Biblical Separation https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/ttw/sermons/523141524596 Is there such a thing, in the eyes of God, as a harmless compromise with the world, or a small or temporary compromise that will lead to a godly result? The Bible answers this question in many places, and today we focus on one of the most notable: the good beginning, and subsequent spiritual downfall, of King Solomon of Israel. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/ttw/sermons/523141524596 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 25 May 2014 12:00:00 +0000 Dr. Paul M.

Elliott - Biblical Separation https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/ttw/sermons/411141925313 Do you think of the Bible's command for believers to be separate from the world as something restrictive or limiting? The Bible actually tells us that Biblical separation is the position of those who have been liberated from bondage to this world. Why is that true? How has God brought it about? Is it true for you? Stay tuned for the answers to these questions and more, as we continue our study of this vital doctrine. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/ttw/sermons/411141925313 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 13 Apr 2014 12:00:00 +0000 Dr. Paul M. Elliott 0:26:10 no Dr. Paul M. Elliott - Biblical Separation https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/ttw/sermons/451422537 What is Christian liberty? Is it liberty to do anything that you want to do? Is it liberty to please yourself? The Bible tells us that Christian liberty is something very different from the picture that we commonly find in the church today, and in the lives of many professing Christians. True Christian liberty involves separation from the world, and separation unto God. https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/ttw/sermons/451422537 Religion & Spirituality Sun, 06 Apr 2014 12:00:00 +0000 Dr. Paul M.

Elliott - Biblical Separation https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/ttw/sermons/32914181355 Scripture commands Christians to be separated from the world, and separated unto God. But in our time, many Christians and churches are treating this command of God as an option, as though separation were something we should only practice when we think it is best - or perhaps not at all.
