    The Challenge Of Love Series

    Contributed by Loyd C. Taylor on Mar 11, 2023
     | 1,350 views

    This is the third sermon I preached in this series. We find a challenge issued by the Holy Spirit through the Apostle John which helps us see how to fulfill the Great Commandments “Love God and Love Others” and the Great Commission.

    Text: 1 John 4:1-11 (1) Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. (2) Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: (3) And every ...read more

    Paul tells us in Ephesians that we should be imitators of God. God is love so therefore if we are to imitate Him, we become love. This message is about imitating LOVE.

    Imitators of Love Scripture: Matthew 24:10-12; Ephesians 4:31-5:2; First John 4:1-6 The title of my message this morning is “Imitators of Love” and the idea for this message came to me from a message my brother Barry delivered a couple of weeks ago at his Church. Barry’s message, titled ...read more

    Out of Alignment happens when the arrangement in which two or more things are not positioned in a straight line or parallel to each other. We will begin to drift and unless we correct the problem we will end up in spiritual accident that could have devastating consequences.

    This message, although not a sequel, builds on an earlier teaching, "Dead To The World."

    We are not who we used to be In November, I delivered a message titled “Dead to the World.” In that message, I talked about what it meant to be dead to sin and to the things of this world. But the focus of the message was on what it means to be spiritually alive without the shackles of the Adamic ...read more

    Our God Is Greater

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Dec 15, 2019
     | 11,538 views

    John declared that the God within us is greater than the god of this world. Paul revealed that if God was for us, who or what could possibly come against us? These two statements reveal attributes of God that complement each other, and provide comfort and assurance for believers.

    Our God is Greater 1 John 4:4; Romans 8:31 Today I would like to conclude the series dealing with profound statements in the Bible by actually considering two statements from different Apostles. These two statements are personal favorites, having brought much comfort to my life over the years. ...read more

    Victory is closer than you think, as you are destined to triumph. There is an unbreakable force within you, the divine life, which guarantees your victory in all life's challenges. This force is activated by the new birth.

    Without the fullness of the Holy Spirit operating in our lives, all steps and principles of discipleship won’t work, because we’re trying to put into practice spiritual principles through natural understanding. Therefore, it’s only logical to build our spiritual lives.
