Can A Genuine Believer Lose Their Salvation?

Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on May 27, 2023

This is the concept of remaining in faith. Abiding in Christ. We must hold fast to our faith, not drifting away, while also knowing that Christ holds us firm, and we do not need to fear the Father losing his hold on us. This sacred balance is a difficult one.

Once an unbeliever has given their life to Christ, been regenerated by the Holy Spirit, reborn of Christ, and placed into the kingdom of God, can such a person fall away, and lose their salvation? This question is so incredibly important. It goes to the very core of the gospel: How does it ...read more

Finished Work Of God Series

Contributed by Colin Mcgeer on Jun 1, 2023

Jesus said, "It is Finished" Was man's redemption really finished? We would still be doomed if Jesus' death without the resurrection and ascension did not happen. We still wait for complete redemption. We eagerly wait for the redemption of our bodies.

There is such satisfaction in completing a task. In finishing a marathon. Like when I finished running the up Comrades 90km race. I lay on the grass on my back after the finish line holding my medal in my hand, tears running out of my eyes and I said to myself that nothing ever in my life would be ...read more

The Rapture Of The Church

Contributed by Luther Sexton on Mar 14, 2019

Ministers often complicate the doctrine of the rapture for people by stating that many signs must be seen and many prophecies must be fulfilled before the second coming of Christ, and then, at the same time, they make statements that He might come tonight or at any moment.

THE RAPTURE OF THE CHURCH INTRO: We mean the rapture of the church, the catching up of all true believers in Christ to meet the Lord in the air. Dake I Thes 4:13-17, I Cor 15:23, Phil 3:20-21, John 14:1-3, Luke 21:34-36, Col. 3:4 Called "the coming of the Lord” but never the second ...read more

On A Morning Like This

Contributed by Vic Folkert on Mar 18, 2019

Mark's ending, unique among the gospels, connects the empty tomb to real-life struggles, as it ends with the women "bewildered and afraid." As we join the women there, we grasp the life-changing impact of the resurrection.

ON A MORNING LIKE THIS—Mark 16:1-8 “In the sky the song of the skylark greets the dawn in the fields wet with dew The scent of the violets fills the air on such a lovely morning as this Surely on such a lovely morning as this Lord Jesus came forth from the tomb.” John Carden, A Procession of ...read more

If Christ Be Not Risen Series

Our hope is not built on opinions, but upon facts. For the facts see v. 1-11. Paul wrote to “refute” those who would “dispute” the resurrection.

Amazing Grace Series

Contributed by Donald Mcculley on Mar 19, 2019

Paul went from being a blasphemer to a believer. He went from a persecutor to a preacher. He went from a maniac to a missionary. He went from a Pharisee to “now I see”. He was lost but now he’s found!

Easter: Where Is The Joy?

Contributed by Pastor Randall Timblin on Apr 6, 2019

This the season for JOY. Although what they did to my Lord was horrific, He outlasted them and brought much JOY to those who would believe in Him. And the JOY continues. HAPPY EASTER!

The Resurrection Of Jesus Christ And Why It Matters

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jan 9, 2023

In his first letter to the church at Corinth, the apostle Paul had to address their chaotic and ungodly practices. He confronted and corrected them as to how a true church should model itself on the foundation of the Lord Jesus Christ, including a reminder about the resurrection and its importance.

As the days draw closer to the return of our Great God and Savior Jesus Christ (Luke 21:28; Titus 2:13), the enemies of the LORD, both human and demonic, are doing their best to turn people away from the truth of the Scriptures and that there is no salvation for anyone except through Him ...read more

The Resurrection Of Jesus Christ: A Refresher Course In Evidence

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jan 10, 2023

The Scriptures tell of the event of the resurrection of Jesus Christ as being an undeniable historical fact with eyewitness and secondary evidence to back it that would be admissible in any objective court of law. This is no case of wishful thinking, but the conclusion of a promise kept.

If we were to present the case for the resurrection of Jesus Christ in a court of law, we would have to first refute the notion or belief that this was nothing more than "faith" on the part of the apostles and all who have followed Him throughout history. I have pointed out in a recent ...read more

The New You Series

Contributed by C. Philip Green on Jan 12, 2023

in the midst of your suffering look forward to your completed, celestial, and Christlike body.

Several years ago (2013), The Week magazine quoted TV chef Anthony Bourdain, who advised, “Your body is not a temple, it's an amusement park. Enjoy the ride.” Then they posed the question: “What would be a good name for a theme park ride based on the typical American's body?” Here were ...read more

The Consequences Of Denying The Resurrection

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jan 15, 2023

If Jesus Christ did not rise from the dead, then the past two thousand years have been the greatest tragedy and travesty of human civilization ever recorded.

There is enough credible eyewitness testimony and extra biblical evidence to verify the historical significance and fact that the event of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ as written in the Scriptures and secular history is true. The resurrection evidence can be presented in any objective court ...read more

The Last Conquered Enemy

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jan 21, 2023

The death and resurrection of Jesus Christ for our sins is a visible testimony of victory and the assurance from the LORD God Almighty that the curse of sin, death, hell, and the grave are conquered forever, and that Jesus is LORD of all.

The evidence for the existence, ministry, influence, death, and resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ should be as plain as day to anyone who is willing to examine the facts, do their own research, quit letting other people do their thinking for them, and avoid the sophistry of so-called ...read more

The Night Jesus Was Born

Contributed by Jenny Franklin on Dec 14, 2022

This message will answer the following questions: Who should be told about the birth of the Savior? What did the shepherds do after they left Joseph, Mary, and baby Jesus? What did Mary do? What other events might Mary have pondered in her heart?

Who should be told about the birth of the Savior? (Luke 2:8-16) God chose to tell His good news to the lowly. He sent His angels with the message to shepherds, who were watching their sheep in the fields that night. An angel said, "A Savior, who is Christ the Lord, has been born today in ...read more
