    Contributed by Mitchell Skelton on Oct 21, 2003
    based on 30 ratings
     | 8,189 views

    Success in the Christian life isn’t all about our effort. While we must make an effort we are not left to do it alone. However, we can have assurance of success without yet realizing the success.

    An Anchor for the Soul Hebrews 6:13–20 INTRODUCTION At the time of his death, this man’s work appeared in twenty-six hundred newspapers worldwide, and was the basis of a franchise earning $1 billion a year. Since its modest debut in just seven papers on October 2, 1950, his comic strip became a ...read more

    based on 54 ratings
     | 3,944 views

    Sermon emphasizes that the claims of Jesus are clear, but people feign ignorance because they want to be ignorant. Having identified Jesus as the Christ--Savior--the question of who we are is explored. Who are we without Christ? Who are we with Christ?

    WHO IS CHRIST AND WHO ARE YOU? Scripture Reading: John 10:22-30 Jesus is the Christ--the Savior of our souls. We are the saved ones--safe only with God. Several questions arise from this assertion. Why do people not accept Jesus for who he is? Who are we apart from God? Who are we with God? ...read more

    The Landmine Of Discouragement Series

    based on 15 ratings
     | 5,155 views

    The power of encouragement in the daily life of the believer. When we are presented with a challenge, and everything we know has been taken from us, we must stand on faith and follow the direction of God, without the involvement of our emotions.

    The Landmine of Discouragement I Samuel 30:1-6 David was distressed for the people spake of stoning him. There have been plenty of times in our lives where we are discouraged. We get distressed for various reasons. Sometimes it is because we are under attack. Other times it is because we ...read more

    Justification Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 9,560 views

    “The biblical term to justify (diakaioo) means God acquits and accepts the sinner who trusts in Jesus.” Justification is not the forgiveness of a man without righteousness, but a declaration that his righteousness is imputed unto him by Christ.(2 Cor. 5

    ARTICLE 5 We believe that justification, regeneration, and the new birth are wrought by faith in the blood of Jesus Christ. The consummation of the act of repentance is when the sinner acknowledges his sin and asks forgiveness and God gives him a free pardon and restores them to a ...read more

    In this message the fcous is on how the resurrection changed everything. One man recently told me that his church does not make a "big deal" of the cross. The cross and the resurrection are CENTRAL to our faith. Without them we have nothing.

    “The Power of the Resurrection” Acts 3:11-26 A crowd has now gathered to see a man who has just been healed. Imagine that for years and years they have watched as this man’s family and friends have carried him everyday to the Temple gate to beg for money. That was his job....that was his ...read more

    Jesus challenged Nicodemus and us because He challenges our pride and status, or because we think that all we have done is now useless. The human Jesus shows us how to live without being uptight.

    based on 3 ratings
     | 10,269 views

    For the Christian, purity ought to be more precious than life, for without purity we can never really have life. If we are going to enjoy the blessings of God in this life and in the one to come, possessing a pure heart is not an optional quality.
