    Friday of the Seventeenth Week in Course 2024 What Gospel do we sin-weakened, morally compromised people want to hear?

    The Rewards Of Repentance

    Contributed by Mark Opperman on Sep 29, 2015
     | 6,203 views

    The sinner must repent before they receive salvation. Those who are saved must practice repentance if they are to enjoy unbroken fellowship with God. Repentance is both negative and positive – turning away from sin – turning to God.

    THE REWARDS OF REPENTANCE Matthew 3:1-3 In those days John the Baptist came, preaching in the Desert of Judea 2 and saying, "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is near." 3 This is he who was spoken of through the prophet Isaiah: "A voice of one calling in the desert, 'Prepare the way for the ...read more

     | 74 views

    The sermon encourages steadfast obedience and faithful confession of Jesus despite spiritual opposition, assuring believers their perseverance matters and is empowered by Christ’s victory.

    If you’ve ever felt the sting of being misunderstood for loving Jesus, if you’ve ever sensed a shadow trying to smother your song, you’re in good company. The Bible is honest about that ache. It doesn’t gloss over the grit. It names the Enemy. It speaks of a dragon. It recognizes that there is ...read more

    "Thy Kindom Come" in the Lords’ prayer encompasses a great deal more than most Christians realize, this sermon takes a look at the Kingdom from a higher vantage point.

Whether we are married or single, whether we have children or not, whether we live in a home or an apartment that is our prayer isn’t it? We want our homes to be Christian homes.
