Ahkhareet Series

Contributed by Stephen Sheane on Feb 23, 2010

AHKHAREET is the Hebrew word for "that which comes after". Are you making decisions today in light of eternity?

AHKHAREET Edwin Thomas was a master of the stage. During the later half of the 1800’s in America there were few actors more successful than he was. At age 15 he starred in his first play, Richard III. He quickly established himself as a premier Shakespearean actor. In New York he performed ...read more

Sermon # 7 - Wait On God Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Jul 24, 2024

Are we waiting on God for His timing in every area of our lives? If we do not listen to God, wait on Him, and allow the Spirit of God to lead us every day we can make decisions that we will regret later.

We read in Genesis 12:4, When Abram was seventy-five years old, he started out from Haran, as the LORD had told him to do; and Lot went with him. (GNB) When Abram was seventy five years old, in obedience to what the Lord told him to do, he departed from Haran. When God spoke to Abram, he ...read more

God’s Word Is More Than Enough

Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Feb 4, 2026

Do we truly believe that when God says something in His Word, the Bible, He means it? This message challenges us to examine what we truly believe about God's Word.

Please open your Bibles to Psalm 119. We’re going to read verses 127 and 128. “Therefore I love thy commandments above gold; yea, above fine gold. [And because I feel this way about your Word] Therefore I esteem all thy precepts concerning all things to be right; and I hate every false way.” ...read more

Sermon # 9 - Seek The Lord Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Mar 28, 2025

Those who seek God and desire to have an intimate relationship with Him, will truly be blessed and will become a blessing to many. Abraham and David are great examples to us of men who truly desired God and sought after Him with all their heart and thereby became a great blessing to many.

We read in Psalms 53:2, “From heaven God looks down to see if anyone is wise enough to search for him.” (CEV) As we read Psalm 53:2, we realize something very important, that God is looking down from heaven to see if there is anyone among the mankind whom He has created, who are truly seeking ...read more

When God Asks Too Much

Contributed by David Heflin on Feb 8, 2007

This sermon focuses on the audacious call to Abraham to sacrifice his only son and reflects on the times when we feel that God is asking too much of us. It is only in light of the sacrifice of God’s only Son that we can appreciate his call.

When God Asks Too Much Gen. 22 and Mark 14:32ff Newland Street C/C 8/20/06 (Sunday Evening) Introduction: Have you ever felt like God was asking too much? Sometimes other people amaze us. They will ask us to do something, which we feel obligated to do, or have to come up with some excuse not to ...read more

Every Mother's Child Matters

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jan 7, 2010

Sarah's me-ism blinded her to Ishmael's value; Abraham's comfort blinded him to how best to support Hagar and Ishmael; Hagar, like many of our mothers, had to trust God in the desert. We today must support the Hagars of this world.

The barren landscape seemed to dance before her eyes, as she looked toward a horizon littered with debris, strewn with the rubbish of thousands of careless people who had gone this way. Filthy and dirty as it was, though, it seemed to dance before her eyes, for the sun was high above and hot; the ...read more

I Surrender All? Part 2

Contributed by Richard Goble on Mar 19, 2008

When we talk about surrendering to God we think of those who give Him one tenth of their income, or who become foreign missionaries. This account of Abraham reveals that God desires every believer to surrender everything - even their very life.

I SURRENDER ALL? PART 2 God desires absolute surrender from every believer. Genesis 22:9-19 Introduction What do you trust in? 1. Money? What if you became the victim of identity theft and you found your bank accounts emptied and your credit destroyed? 2. Career? What if your company suddenly ...read more

A Living Sacrifice

Contributed by Sam Mccormick on Sep 22, 2017

Sacrificing to God has always been part of the man-God relationship. Abel and Cain made sacrifices. Abraham prepared to sacrifice his son. The Levitical system of sacrifices lay at the center of Jewish life. Today God calls for living, not dead sacrifice.

“america’s Ancient Covenant With The God Of Israel” Series

Contributed by Mike Fogerson on May 20, 2015

We spent last Sunday morning learning what a covenant is and what being in one means. 1 It means to bind, cut, divide (the way Abraham cut/divide the animals on presumably an altar before God) the binding is the people of Israel to God.

Reward For Being Obedient

Contributed by Rev. Felix Cornelius Agyei on Jun 10, 2023

God's promise of a new beginning are not in a vacuum. It does not just take God to make it possible. Abraham had a part to play. In the same way, the new life and restoration that Jesus brings demand our participation. What then is our participation? THIS IS OBEDIENCE.

THE LORD, OUR OBJECT OF OBEDIENT The one whose voice and command we are to obey is the LORD Himself. The Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. He is the One who commanded OUR Father Abraham (Gen. 12:1). In Matthew, it is Christ Jesus Christ. We must learn to obey the Holy Spirit who now works in ...read more

Jacob: Manipulating A Birthright Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on Jun 5, 2022

Normally the birthright goes to the firstborn son. That would be Jacob’s brother Esau. Now we will look at how Jacob manipulated the birthright for the blessing. By custom Esau was to inherit the blessings of Abraham and Isaac. This fellow Jacob stole Esau’s birthright and blessing.

Jacob: Manipulating a birthright Genesis 25:19-34 I think many of us will be able to relate to Jacob. He had faults and failings that are very common weaknesses we have. It’s not that we do not relate to the weakness of his father Isaac and his grandfather Abraham, but Jacobs selfish and ...read more

Rueben Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Jun 25, 2022

The book of Exodus establishes God's covenant relationship with the full-fledged nation of Israel. The descendants of Abraham prosper after settling in Egypt, only to be enslaved by a fearful, hateful Egyptian Pharaoh. God appoints Moses to lead the people out of this bondage.

His Name is Wonderful! (Exodus 6:14-25) 14 These are the heads of their fathers' households. The sons of Reuben, Israel's firstborn: Hanoch and Pallu, Hezron and Carmi; these are the families of Reuben. 15The sons of Simeon: Jemuel and Jamin and Ohad and Jachin and Zohar and Shaul the son ...read more
