    What kind of church do you like? What kind do I like? Does it really matter? How about, what kind of church does God like? Here’s the story of a church that heard well done. It was not a church without problems. But it was a church that had the heartbeat

    Contributed by David Wilson on Feb 17, 2011
     | 11,706 views

    John writes a letter that commends his friend Gaius, encourages him, and assures him that the troublemaker Diotrephes would be dealt with.

    VERSES 1-2 FROM JOHN WITH LOVE Once again we have John addressing himself as the elder, which is more a title of authority than speaking of age. He addresses his letter to his dear friend Gaius and once again, as we saw in his gospel and his first two letter, emphasizes LOVE. He declares that ...read more

    The first sermon in this series looks at what it means to be a body.

    A Healthy Body So, how do you feel about your body? Strange question isn’t it? Most of us would rather not think about our bodies and if we do we probably don’t think very complementary things. It’s too fat or too skinny, too short or too tall. Bumpy, lumpy or just plain ugly ...read more

    How will the child of God be known throughout eternity? The Word of God hints at the transformation and testifies to the importance of God’s knowledge of who we are.

    Your name is important. Perhaps your name reveals the aspirations your parents had for you; perhaps it speaks of their honour for some other person who bore the name before you. Whatever their intention may have been in naming you as they did, your name has come to reflect your character, for ...read more

    3 John verse 11 echoes the words of John throughout his writings. We are called by Jesus Christ to leave sin and follow the truth.

    This morning our text is 3 John. Adam Clarke notes that we seldom hear 3 John quoted but in reproof of lordly tyrants, or prating troublesome fellows in the Church. He says that it has been the lot of both the minor prophets and the minor epistles to be generally neglected, because with many ...read more

The following proofs are a few that are backed by many Scriptures to prove it is always God's will to heal: (1) ...read more

    Get a prosperous soul and let God decide if your life will match it or be given something better.

    If you listen to many of the TV and radio preachers you would think that Christ is the dispenser of the American dream. Indeed, God’s throne seems to be a celestial Las Vegas where instead of spinning a wheel your prayers are like rolling dice. If you roll the right number God drops money, ...read more

     | 8,714 views

    Don't imitate what is evil, but rather what is good. Even in the church and even in leadership we can find poor examples. We shouldn't walk after the example of men and women like Diotrephes. We should instead follow the example of men and women who exhib

    Joy is the heritage of the believer. If we do not have joy in our Christian walk, it is either because we do not know the author of joy, or we are disobedient to His will.

    “Beloved, I pray that all may go well with you and that you may be in good health, as it goes well with your soul. For I rejoiced greatly when the brothers came and testified to your truth, as indeed you are walking in the truth. I have no greater joy than to hear that my children are walking in ...read more
