    Easter: This message examines a common argument against the resurrection and looks at some simple proofs. We will come to realize that the resurrection did indeed happen, and that it is far from being a cunningly devised fable.

    I wish to begin our message with a quote. Virginia, minister once stated, “We have closed our minds to such trivial considerations as the question of the resurrection of Christ. If you fundamentalists wish to believe that nonsense, we have no objections, but we have more important things to ...read more

    Preaching The Unadulterated Word Of God

    As we were growing up, many of our parents tried to warn us about dangers that we faced, but we could not see them until later in life.

    As the children of God, we used to wonder what the Word of God was warning us about in Matthew 24:22-23. We read, “And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is ...read more

    In John's prologue, he presents the Lord Jesus Christ as God the Creator who came into the world to be among us and is due all majesty, glory, and splendor.

    In the previous verses of John's prologue, he has presented the Lord Jesus Christ as the One who was in the beginning with God and Who is God, the source of life and the light for all to see yet was rejected by His own people. Those who followed Him, though few, received the right to be ...read more

    A recent survey revealed that many Christians believe a person can go to heaven and not believe in Jesus. This message looks at a way we can help family and friends understand that heaven is not available to the person who does not accept Jesus as the only way to heaven.

    The Transfiguration of Jesus is a moment in time when we get a glimpse of Jesus heavenly Glory and we also get another testimony of Jesus as the Father's one and only Son. We also see Him discussing His "departure" with Moses and Elijah.

    The Scriptures are the inspired, authentic self-revelation of God and as such have primary and foundational authority in all matters of what we believe, what we value, and how we live.

We learned the Bible is God’s self-revelation that pulls back the curtain for us to know who God is, who we are, the purpose of our lives, and the destiny of the ...read more
