    Faith And Prayer

    Contributed by Michael Koplitz on Jul 20, 2021
     | 2,635 views

    Why are some prayers answered while others are not? It has to do with materialism vs. spirituality.

    Faith and Prayer Rev. Dr. Michael H. Koplitz Mark 9:14-29 14 When they came back to the disciples, they saw a large crowd around them, and some scribes arguing with them. 15 Immediately, when the entire crowd saw Him, they were amazed and began running up to greet Him. 16 And He asked them, ...read more

    "From the standpoint of material wealth, Americans have difficulty realizing how rich we are.

    Thirtieth Sunday In Ordinary Time, B: Bartimaeus

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Oct 11, 2024
     | 751 views

    Jesus never gave any person with a disability, who was begging, money or any material goods.

    Bartimaeus, called “a blind man,” in Mark 10:46, is begging on Jericho Street, we hear in our Gospel today, and a verse from the First Reading, Jeremiah 31:8, describes those such as him as the “blind and the lame.” Today, we would be more sensitive and say that Bartimaeus is “person who is blind; ...read more

     | 62,107 views

    Christ always has been the provider of His people’s needs. He will always be. The question is will we see our true needs & look to Him to provide them. Jesus is the hope of the 2nd Exodus, which will lead to freedom from slavery to sin, self & satan.

    JOHN 6: 1-15 JESUS FEEDS THE FIVE THOUSAND [Isaiah 55:1-4] The feeding of the five thousand is the one miracle along with the resurrection that is included in all four Gospels (Mt.14:13-21; Mk. 6:30-44; Lk. 9:10-17; Jn. 6:1-13). It ...read more

     | 4,052 views

    Finishing the 2nd lesson of a short mini-series "Crossing Over to Zion" we now focus on the word "Zion". As true Hebrews today (cp. Romans 2:28-29) Christians ought to be girded in the hope of God’s secure promise as death has been conquered.

    Crossing Over to Zion (2) Theme: Living a life of hope awaiting Zion INTRODUCTION A. In the previous lesson we looked at the word Hebrew. 1. We saw that from word usage in the Old Testament the word possibly meant either 1) descendent of Shem; One crossing over; or the description of one who ...read more

    The tombstone holds 2 dates. The date of birth and the date of death. A dash - separates the 2. That dash represents a lifetime spent here on this earth. Both dates hold different emotions for different people. But to the believer in Jesus, I want you to reconsider those dates, especially the 2nd...

    Knowledge Is Power

    Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Nov 15, 2020
     | 5,706 views

    scientia potentia est is a Latin saying meaning knowledge is power. While this can be true in an academic sense, the idea that knowledge is power is also true in a spiritual sense. Let's get into 2nd Peter and see what having spiritual knowledge enables us to do.

    KNOWLEDGE IS POWER 2nd Peter 1:1-3 When I was preparing the Sunday School lesson for last week, I had 2 Peter 1:3-4 as part of an answer to one of the questions. But as I looked over the whole passage I saw there was a lot there to tap into so I decided to develop it into a sermon series. ...read more
