    United In Faith, United In Christ

    We have to set aside our sinful nature if we want to be united in Christ. We have to go back to the beginning of our Christian mission and purpose before we can move forward.

    The more things change, the more they stay the same. Sound familiar? In 1 Corinthians 1:10-17, Paul addresses a problem that still exists today. That problem is the lack of unity in the Christian church. The Corinthian Christians were divided into factions based on who had baptized them instead of ...read more

    The Way Of The Cross

    The message of the cross of Jesus is still a strange message to those who have never experienced its life changing power. To them it is "foolishness". To the lost the idea of trusting a suffering, bleeding man for salvation is foolishness.

    THE WAY OF THE CROSS Study Text: 1 Corinthians 1:17-18 Introduction: - When he wrote to the church in Corinth, Paul reminded them that he had been called for one purpose and that purpose was to preach the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. That message was to be his focus and that message was to be ...read more

    Paul appeals to the Corinthian church to unify. He pleads for unity of word and unity of action.

    Introduction A. Two taxidermists stopped in front of a window where an owl was on display. They immediately began to criticize the way it was mounted. Its eyes were not natural; its wings were not in proportion with its head; its feathers were not neatly arranged; and its feet could be improved. ...read more

    Paul was determined to know and preach nothing except Christ and Him crucified . Today, it seems we preach everything but Christ and the cross, causing many to live as enemies of the cross..

    Dwight L. Moody once stated, "I have never yet known the Spirit of God to work where the Lord's people were divided." For God to bless the church, there must be unity.

    The Call to Unity 1 Corinthians 1:10-18 Recently, I read about a church that split, and that split began over an argument at a potluck supper when a lady brought a congealed salad made with Cool Whip instead of real whipping cream. Frank Martin has written a book entitled War in The Pews that ...read more

    We unite in Christ, around Christ, because of Christ and for Christ. Let us not be distracted by our selfish desires, men's ways and the affairs of this world.

    We covered Paul’s opening words of the letter last Sunday, from 1 Cor 1:1-9. • He addressed them as those who are sanctified and called saints in Christ. • He gave thanks to God for the many gifts that they have been blessed with. • The faithful God who started the work in them will see them ...read more

    Paul knew more than anything else Corinthian’s their love for human wisdom led to division in the local church. So he explains it detail.

    1Corinthians 1: 22 : “For Jews request a sign, and Greeks seek after wisdom..” Paul knew well, Greeks need wisdom…that’s what they are interested in. Jews, they need a sign, miracles, and mighty things…not the message of the cross… But Paul preached…no wisdom…cf. v. 12 ‘we preach Christ ...read more

    An Evaluation of Ultra-dispensationalism And Dispensationalism Views on Ordinances.

    Ultra-dispensationalists are divided into two groups. There are the extreme ultra-dispensationalists and the moderate ultra-dispensationalists. These two differ on the exact time that the Church started but both are in agreement that the Church did not start on Pentecost. Some feel that there ...read more

    Regardless of denominational affiliation or whether we are Catholic, Orthodox, or Protestant, we can stand united at the Cross of Jesus Christ to preach the Good News of the Gospel.

    THERE SEEMS TO BE AN OBSESSION WITH CATEGORIZING AND LABELING THE VARIOUS THINGS IN OUR CULTURE.
