    Perhaps Jeremiah's best-known prophecy was "...I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and the house of Judah, not like the covenant I made with their fathers...I will put my law within them, and I will write it on their hearts." What law?

     | 5,161 views

    A review of the events described in the Bible that would have to take place if a person willingly chose to 'fall' and 'slip away,' losing their salvation and become unBorn-Again.

    There are two fundamental schools about this have many branches of differing thought. First is the Armenian teaching that believes the believer maintains salvation and can be lost due to sin. Second is Calvinism, which teaches that salvation can never be lost because it was preordained from the ...read more

     | 8,764 views

    Those who are in Christ are aware of the dangers and consequences of sin, and yet most today are unwilling to confront it. While we must work with compassion, we also have an obligation to address sin and deal with it in our lives.

    Seeing Sin for What it Is 1 John 3: 4-10 Dr. J. Wilbur Chapman used to tell of a Methodist preacher who often spoke on the subject of sin. He minced no words, but defined sin as “that abominable thing that God hates.” A leader in his congregation came to him on one occasion and urged ...read more

    Putting Our Love Into Action Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jun 23, 2016
     | 14,260 views

    Our efforts for the Lord will be futile without love. We know the Bible commands that we love one another, and yet we fail to fully heed the command. Our world needs to experience love in action, not just in word.

    Putting our Love into Action 1 John 3: 11-17 Our text this evening continues to deal with the great theme of love that John has already dealt with extensively. I suppose there is no wonder John felt so impressed to emphasize love among the believers. He was blessed to walk with the Lord, studying ...read more

    The Biblical Concept Of Sin

    Contributed by Darin Gary on Jun 25, 2016
     | 3,535 views

    The reason many in the Church live a defeated existence within and without the Church is because of a FAULTY, UN-BIBLICAL VIEW and UNDERSTANDING of SIN!

    BIBLICAL CONCEPT of SIN (1 John 3:7-10; NKJV) “Little children, let no one deceive you. He who practices righteousness is righteous, just as He is righteous. [8] He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He ...read more

     | 9,148 views

    What does the Bible teach about overcoming sin in the life of the Christian?

    We come now to one of the most difficult passages in Scripture. Verse 9 is often quoted to teach that a child of God will never commit sin. Many honest and sincere people believe this, and devote themselves to the attainment of what is commonly called "sinless perfection." But is this doctrine ...read more
