     | 7,830 views

    We need to discern whether something is from an evil spirit or the Holy Spirit.

    IDENTIFYING SPIRITS Text: 1 John 4:1-6 Introduction 1. Discernment in Scripture is the skill that enables us to differentiate. It is the ability to see issues clearly.

    “We should believe in the name of his Son Jesus Christ and love one another, just as he has commanded us.” That’s not a suggestion. That’s a demand .

    Monday of Epiphany Week 2020 It’s a good idea to read St. John’s words in this first letter perhaps every week of our lives, because in it we find the key to happiness and fulfillment. John says “we receive from [God] whatever we ask.” Hmm, that’s interesting. And we recall that Jesus Himself said ...read more

    Imitating Love

    Contributed by Rodney V Johnson on Mar 23, 2023
     | 2,375 views

    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

    The devil is a cruel cunning foe. To be vigilant against his attacks is not only a duty but also a mandatory essential to life.

    And Satan stood up against Israel and provoked David to number Israel. (1 Chronicle 21:1) When marriages disintegrate, churches split into several fragments, governments collapse, and institutions go bankrupt, who do you think is the supreme architect of these evil situations? Believe me, it is ...read more

We’re going to start in First John 4 and then First John 5 identifying who we are and who we are not. So, ...read more

     | 179 views

    How much of our activity at this season owes more to the Christmas spirit than to the spirit of Christ?

    The eternally liberal town of Eugene, Oregon lost their cross a few years ago. It used to overlook the town from Skinner Butte, but after a heated battle it was replaced by an American flag. This year the diversity police focused on a new target. The Christmas tree in the Hult Center for the ...read more

    We Have Overcome

    Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Sep 2, 2024
     | 944 views

    Tindley wrote, “I'll overcome some day”. Pete Seeger and Joan Baez sang, “We shall overcome”. And the apostle John wrote, “You... have overcome”. I like them all. But I am drawn most to the words in scripture that says the overcoming has already happened.

    Alba 9-1-2024 WE HAVE OVERCOME I John 4:4-6 "We Shall Overcome" is a gospel song that is associated heavily with the U.S. civil rights movement. Wikipedia has an article that says the origins of the song are unclear. It was thought to have descended from "I'll Overcome Some ...read more
