    Know Jesus and know that you are the forever protected, listened to and loved child of God.

    It’s hard to believe. It’s the end of July and before you know it football season will be upon us. We get to watch the Chiefs play, and hopefully they’ll make it to the Superbowl this time. They have a very promising young quarterback, who uses the same word to start each play, he and all the other ...read more

    The Dangers Of Judging People Series

    Contributed by Timothy Peck on Jan 4, 2001
    based on 161 ratings
     | 24,043 views

    Judging other people is dangerous because it lulls us into a false sense of security, blinds us to our own faults, and usurps God’s role as judge.

    We Christians can be such "dorks" sometimes. We have a tendency to build our own little holy huddle, with our own special words and secret handshakes. If a person shows up who doesn’t know our special words, they feel like a fish out of water. No wonder so many unchurched seekers are deeply ...read more

    This sermon is ideal to use for a communion service. Focusing on the extent the Lord went to, to secure our salvation. I had the communion service part way through.

    HE WENT A LITTLE FURTHER Matthew 26:39. He went on a little farther and bowed with his face to the ground, praying, “My Father! If it is possible, let this cup of suffering be taken away from me. Yet I want your will to be done, not mine.” [NLT] I would like to link this ministry with our ...read more

    The nest is comfortable. It is safe, warm, secure and only for a season. You can’t stay in the nest forever. If you stay there too long, then it is no longer an incubator, but a coffin!

    “Outed” Confusing Words Pt. 2 Introduction: Last week I challenged you that God does indeed want to make us uncomfortable. He desires for us to have a nest to which we can retreat every so often for comfort and revitalization. However, He absolutely refuses to leave us here or allow us to become ...read more

    We are bored. Feelings shut down because we strive for security and for status, and even for spirituality, but nothing works. Only allegiance to the risen Christ provides fulfillment.

    Of all the diseases of our time, the most serious one is boredom. Of all the sicknesses this flesh is heir to, the most fatal is boredom. Not AIDS, not homicide, not heart disease nor cancer, but boredom. Oh, I don’t suppose any mortuary ever tagged a cadaver’s toe with "boredom". I don’t suppose ...read more

    A fish that would not die symbolized the Christ who is able to give a relationship that will never end, as opposed to our typical dependence on things or on information to make us secure.

    We have, at our house, a small miracle. I can only call it a miracle. Maybe we ought to build a small shrine to house this miracle. The miracle is the incredible, indestructible fish. Our own private incredible, indestructible fish. You see, from time to time somebody in our household will decide ...read more

    Contributed by Wesley Byrd on Oct 6, 2013

    How marvelous is the grace of God. Eternal Security is a truth that lies at the heart of doctrine. We're not caste out but cleaned up, not cursed but chastened, not rejected but renewed.

Ps. 51:11 INTRO: In the case of a bride murdered on her wedding day by her ex-lover, the defense tarnished her name, said she invited violence and argued for a lesser charge of 'passion provocation' murder. On Oct. 23, a jury rejected a "crime ...read more

    In the Philippines SSS means Social Security System! It is an INSURANCE company. Speaking of INSURANCE, it involves MONEY! What about ASSURANCE? It only REQUIRES FAITH, HOPE or TRUST!

    S – Saved from “Satan’s Slavery”. S – Stepping Up to “Sonship”. S – Secured by the Holy Spirit. S – Servant of the Sovereign King of kings.
