    The story is told of a boxer who was in the fight of his life. From the very first round, he was getting hit from every direction you can imagine.

But his manager wanted to encourage him so he said, “Good fight champ, he never laid a glove on you!” • After the second round he returned to his corner with his nose still bleeding and now he had a black eye. But again, his ...read more

    The issue of pain and suffering is much known. Yet, we struggle to make sense of it or react to it the right way. Let us learn from Peter on how not to, and how to, address this issue.

    Learnings from Peter : Rewards and Suffering Past 15 or so months have been a series of struggles for many of us.

    HOW CAN YOU ACHIEVE HUMILITY? BY CONTINUALLY CASTING YOU CARES UPON GOD.

    Humility is Self-effacing and it is Modest. It is quiet, reserved, shy, gracious, mild-mannered, and doesn’t believe it’s own press clippings. Humility is essential if you are a follower of Christ. Today’s Big Idea: Be Humble if You Want God to Work for You. “Clothe yourselves, all of you, with ...read more

    Don’t be like the 2 boys walking back home from church. They had just heard the pastor preach a strong message on the devil when the one boy said, “What do you think about all this Satan stuff?” The other boy replied, “You know how Santa Clause turned out. It’s probably just your dad.”

    According to a cartoon in the Atlanta Journal Constitution, God and the devil are discussing who gets to welcome Michael Jackson to the afterlife. The cartoon shows Satan holding a newspaper with a headline announcing Jackson’s death. He looks up and poses a question to God, who is leaning over a ...read more

    When the worries of life press us down, we do not have to bear them alone! Notice how much of our burden we are supposed to give to the Lord. "All your care" We are told to give it all up to Jesus!

    I. A SURRENDERED PEOPLE A. V. 5-6 WE MUST SURRENDER OUR WILL TO GOD – Peter quotes Proverbs 3:34 in verse 5, “God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble” He says - "Clothe yourselves with Humility" literally means to "wear the apron of a slave". True humility before ...read more

    In the last sermon, 1 Peter 5:1-4, he was dealing with the Elders of the church. Today we call Elders, Pastors, Ministers, or Preachers.

    But notice, after he addresses the Elders in verses 1-4, he immediately addresses two other groups: (1) THE YOUTH Look at verse 5, we read, “Likewise, ye younger, submit yourselves unto the elder. Yea, all of you be subject one to another, and be clothed with humility: for God resisteth the ...read more

    Does God Ever Withdraw His Favor?

    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Mar 15, 2022
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,905 views

    There is a belief in the church that when a Born-Again Christian sins or walks in disobedience, God withdraws His favor and blessings to punish them.

    This belief is rooted in the Old Testament, where a relationship with God was conditionally based upon behavior. The Hebrew words translated as ‘favor’ are ‘ratson’ and ‘ratsah.’ The word ‘ratson’ is translated as favor, goodwill, acceptance, desire, pleasure. It most often represents God ...read more

    The Voiceless Roar Of Satan (I Am Vigilant, I Am Prepared For Eternity)

    Contributed by Cesar Datuin on Aug 9, 2021
     | 6,261 views

    What Satan can do to us is to set fear in our hearts and mind. What can Christians do to defeat the enemy? In this sermon we will be taught how to know Satan schemes and how to defeat him.

    Introduction: One of the fiercest and the deadliest animals in the jungle is the lion. And because of its roar, all the animals are scared of it. Lions may be not that big as giraffe nor the elephants, but because of its strength, loudness of his voice, size doesn’t matter. Lion is still considered ...read more

    This world is full of Satan's schemes and activities to lure Christians to give up their faith. But in this sermon, we will see a perfect example set by Jesus in order to be effective in our vigilance against the enemy.

    Intro: Last week we were able to learn that Satan is only a voiceless roaring lion who wanted to set fear and worries in us by using his defenseless roar. That’s why, if we recall our theme this month “I am Vigilant, I am Prepared for Eternity” we are called to be watchful and be on guard always as ...read more
