    A message from Acts 1 that reveals 4 things the church needs if it is to be a New Testament Church.

    Being The Church! Acts 1:1-11 I loved Miss Patrick. She was from Somerset, Kentucky and she was my third grade teacher. She was awesome because she introduced us to some exciting literature.

    36th in a series from Ephesians. Why it is so important to put off falsehood in the church.

    Last week we saw that Paul described how those who are followers of Jesus Christ are to dress the part based on who they already are in Him. In verses 22-24 of Chapter 4, Paul wrote about how we are to put off of the old man and put on the new man by allowing God to renew our mind. In the next ...read more

    What Is Our Ambition?

     | 2,746 views

    We can stray away from Jesus if we have the wrong ambitions for our churches.

    IT IS SAFE TO SAY THAT NOBODY WANTS TO DELIBERATELY FAIL AT ANYTHING. THE INTERESTING THING ABOUT "FAILING" IS THE NEED TO UNDERSTAND THE BASICS OF FAILURE ITSELF. THE GREATEST NEWS ABOUT FAILURE IS THAT FAILURE IN AND OF ITSELF IS NEVER FINAL. YOU CAN LEARN GREAT LESSONS FROM FAILURE IF YOU ARE ...read more

    39th in a series from Ephesians. Our words can either tear down or build up.

    In February of 2007, a 31 year old female posted this question on Answerbag.com: "Sticks and stones my break my bones, but words will never harm me." Is this true? Why or why not? There were some very heartfelt answers to that question, but one in particular caught my attention. An anonymous ...read more

    This was a tough text to preach on. When I went to read what early church fathers had written or preached about this text, I found that it was skipped by almost everyone from Chrysostom to Augustine. So, where angels fear to tread....here goes a fool for

    The Lord is to be feared, especially by those who are in rebellion against Him. However, the fear of the Lord seems to be absent from many churches. Is that spiritually healthy?

    Please open your Bibles to Mark 4:35-41 which we will read in a few minutes. This past week I saw a video of a comedienne ridiculing a devout, born again Christian and she was saying, “I am Christian, I love Jesus, but he thinks Jesus tells him to say things.” So, setting her slander aside, I was ...read more

     | 1,753 views

    In the last two sermons, we have been talking about the rapture of the church. I want to remind you again, the rapture is different from the second coming of Christ.

    • At the Second Coming, the Lord will literally come to the earth and set up His kingdom on earth for a thousand years. • When the rapture of the church takes place, the Lord will not come back to the earth, but the church will be caught up to meet Him in the air. Look at 1 Thess 4:17 “Then we ...read more
