    Communion With Jesus

    Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Aug 18, 2025
     | 382 views

    The Lord wants all of us to be in close fellowship with Him. And in the New Covenant relationship we have with Jesus, our time around the communion table as we partake in the Lord's Supper is a high point connecting us with Jesus in a special way.

    Alba 8-10-2025 COMMUNION WITH JESUS I Corinthians 10:14-22 If you have seen the film, “Mrs. Doubtfire”, you know that Robin Williams plays a divorced man who dresses up as an English nanny in order to see his kids every day.

     | 1,974 views

    If you aren’t actively seeking out or using your gifts to build up the body of Christ, why not? It’s why you were made.

    I love bumper-sticker theology. And one of my favorites is, “Life is hard try reading the instructions.” Those of you who have assembled toys or furniture may have discovered this principle the hard way. I’ve neglected to count the parts. I’ve put things together upside down and backwards. When I ...read more

    David was so true when he said that we are made of dust; likewise, he was true when he said that God is aware of our earthly/dust made bodies. God, in His wisdom has made it possible that once we lay down our dust made bodies, we can inherit a new body.

    Part 7A - Introduction to the functions in the first-century church and how the earliest Christians were empowered to perform them.

    This 13-part series of classes has been many years in the making. About 25 years ago I began in earnest to examine the features, character and characteristics of the church as it existed in its earliest years. As I sometimes do, I kept my notes all along the way, and this series of classes is to a ...read more

    Spiritual Networth

    Contributed by John Roy on Oct 26, 2016
     | 7,421 views

    Are we material people trapped in spiritual bodies, or spiritual people trapped in material bodies? This sermon asserts that we need to be concerned about our spiritual net worth, because we are spiritual people.

    From time to time I suspect people review their finances. In those reviews, they may take a moment to calculate their net worth. Our financial net worth is the value of all assets, minus the total of all liabilities. Put another way, net worth is what is owned minus what is owed. The value of ...read more

    Jesus is the First Born from the dead; raised in a glorified body. Every human from Adam onward will also be raised from the dead. What will our bodies be like? What do the Scriptures say?

    Colossians 1:15-23 (please open your Bibles as we read this passage) The entire gospel is based on the fact that Jesus was and is the one and only Son of God who was born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, was crucified, buried and rose again from the dead for our salvation.

    The Church Is One Foundation And Jesus Christ Her Lord.

    Contributed by James Linders on Jun 3, 2015
     | 3,295 views

    The church of God is a unified body and has a primary objective. The body of Christ (Church) can NOT be subjected to man-made traditions and denominations, and MUST be led by the spirit of God. Man is ONLY an overseer and NOT the head of the church.

    Acts 2:42 “They devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and to the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer.” BEFORE Jesus departed from His disciples, to return to His heavenly kingdom, He gave them a FINAL instruction:"Go and make disciples of ALL the nations, ...read more

     | 1,070 views

    The scriptures encourage us to view our bodies the way God does as fearfully and wonderfully made, to live our lives aligned with the way God created us to live and glorify Him with our bodies.

    Have you ever thought about how, why, and to what degree we as human beings place value on things, whether the object is a person, idea, behavior, piece of art, other? There is something called the Value Theory which basically states that we place a value on something based on how “good” it is ...read more

    Just as a body has many parts, each with a role to play, so it is with the body of Christ. We need each other, and when we come together, we are stronger than any individual part.

    Imagine a puzzle. Each piece is different, right? Some have straight edges, some are curvy, and they all have different colors and patterns. But when you put them all together, they create a beautiful picture. Now, what if all the pieces were the same? You'd just have a boring, blank puzzle. It's ...read more
