    The Holy Spirit . . . Our Co-Pilot.

    Contributed by Val Black on May 26, 2025
     | 24 views

    The Holy Spirit is more than a Comforter in times of grief, and more than a teacher of the Word. The Holy Spirit is freely given to us to guide us in life. Our Co-Pilot as we soar like eagles. (Isaiah 40:31)

    The Holy Spirit Is Our Co-Pilot When I was young I had a secret desire to learn to fly an airplane. I used to build those model airplanes, the WWI, two-winged planes with the open cockpits. Back then we used balsa wood and paper. (The fun went out of it when someone thought of making them in ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 3,544 views

    The Blood of Jesus is seldom spoken of in many churches of today. But for 2000 years the Gospel of Jesus Christ has never changed. We are saved by faith and that faith should be in His redemption work on Calvary and the Blood that He shed.

    Why Was The Blood of Jesus Necessary? Sunday Morning - Feb. 17, 2008 1) FOR 2000 YEARS THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST HAS NEVER CHANGED. a) It's still true that Jesus was God, manifested in the Flesh, born of a virgin, suffered and died on Calvary for the redemption of man, rose again and now ...read more

    Like most trials in life, church splits causes confusion and despair to people and congregations. But God can always turn something bad into something beautiful. If your church is facing a split or has had a split, this Holy Spirit anointed message may help.

    What Manner Of Man Is This?

    Contributed by Val Black on Apr 11, 2022
     | 2,663 views

    Life is like crossing a sea. One of the things we learn as we cross the sea of life is that it's not always smooth sailing. But every born-again Christian has Someone in the boat Who will calm the storm and guarantee they will get to the other side.

    (I cannot in full honesty claim credit for this message. Of course, the Holy Spirit should always be credited but the main idea and most of the passages are from a message I came across many years ago. I do not remember where or who it was from except it spoke to me and I knew it was anointed. ...read more

    We must forgive our enemies so we will be forgiven. (Matthew 6:14) But the hardest part may be to bless them too. (Mattew 5:43-45)

    Bless Your Enemies The message was given on Wed., Sept. 22, 2004 (I owe most of this message to Pastor Bill Ligon who has authored several books on Blessings and how to impart them.) I.

    God's plan of the ages is to restore man back into the Kingdom of God

    The Kingdom of God Wed. - Oct. 27, 2004 Here's a statement that's going to rub some the wrong way: Man was not created to spend eternity in heaven: Man was created to spend eternity here on earth in the Garden of Eden. That was God's plan when He created the Garden. Eden was a kingdom ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 5,850 views

    God bless you! We hear that a lot, especially when we have a cold or hay fever. We take it for granted today but there is much more to it than knowing someone cares enough for you to speak those words. There are REAL blessings that prove there is power in the words we choose.

    Speaking Blessings Numbers 6:22-27 (Wed. Evening Service - June 9, 2004) I. GOD BLESS YOU! OR “GESUNDHEIT” EVERYONE HAS HEARD THIS WHEN THEY HAVE A COLD OR HAY FEVER. 1.

    The story of the Good Samaritan gives us a picture of God's plan of salvation starting with Adam and ending with the Second Coming of Jesus Christ.

    Baptism Sunday a.m. - March 30, 2008 1) Jesus Christ walked about 40 miles to the Jordan River to be baptized by John he Baptist. a.

    Because of the New Covenant, we become heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ. We are Blood Brothers with Jesus when we accept Jesus as sacrifice for our sins.

    YOUR BLOOD BROTHER, JESUS Jeremiah 31:31-34, "Behold, the days are coming, says the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah— 32 not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to lead them ...read more

    Free Lunch!

    Contributed by Val Black on Nov 25, 2019
     | 3,253 views

    There are always claims of a "Free Lunch" but none of them prove to be true, with one exception. It's a real meal and it really is free.

    (This is a sermonette and/or illustration, that was taken from one of our Gospel tracts. It could be considered tongue-in-cheek. It simply explains the Marriage Supper of the Lamb and how to qualify to participate in it.) Someone once said there is no such thing as a “free lunch.” There are ...read more

    What is the significance of a woman in Bible times losing one particular coin and how does it relate to us today?

    THE LOST COIN of Luke 15:8-10 Luke 15:8-10 "Or what woman, having ten silver coins, if she loses one coin, does not light a lamp, sweep the house, and search carefully until she finds it? 9 And when she has found it, she calls her friends and neighbors together, saying, Rejoice with me, for I ...read more
