    The Danger Of Following God With Human Wisdom

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Aug 5, 2025
     | 163 views

    God is not seeking experts; He is seeking the obedient. Following Him requires that we crucify our natural wisdom and embrace divine instruction. There is danger in depending on human intelligence to navigate spiritual assignments. Such a path leads to error, frustration, and loss.

    THE DANGER OF FOLLOWING GOD WITH HUMAN WISDOM By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: 1 Corinthians 1:18-25 “For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God…” (1 Corinthians 1:18) Supporting Texts: Proverbs 3:5-7, Romans 8:6-8, ...read more

    Theme: How does the story of Jesus’ death and resurrection “destroy the wisdom of the wise” and bring comfort to their heart and mind?

    P: "Christ is risen! C: He is risen indeed! Alleluia!" P: In the path of righteousness is life, C: and in its pathway there is no death. (Proverbs 12:28) Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. Who here is righteous? What does righteous mean to you? If ...read more

    Contributed by Paul Dayao on Aug 31, 2025
     | 191 views

    In a world that seeks wisdom and power, we are here to explore the foolishness of the cross, which is the only true power of God for salvation.

    Introduction: A Tale of Two Wisdoms Grace and peace to you from God our Father. The world preaches its own gospel around us. It preaches self-reliance. It promotes human achievement. It is the gospel of worldly wisdom. It tells you to be smarter and stronger. It tells you to be more successful. It ...read more

    A Quieted Soul

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 17, 2025

    Psalm 131 invites restless hearts into humility and hope—trusting God’s presence over answers, like a weaned child content with mother.

    It’s easy to worry. Anxiety is normal. Fear is expected. There’s plenty to be anxious about. I once heard a guy on the radio say, “Anyone who doesn’t have high blood pressure these days just isn’t paying attention.” And maybe he’s right—because we live in a world wound tight with hurry and ...read more

     | 758 views

    The cross is the central fact of the Gospel. But not all people are aware or accept that fact. And this has been true from the beginning. Our text in I Corinthians 1:18-25 describes the message of the cross, and two words stand out: Foolishness and Power.

    The message of the Cross has never been popular. It was not popular in Corinth when Paul wrote these words, and it is not popular now. The world has always had a problem with the Cross.
