    There have been many times throughout Christian history when the church was up against societies that like ours grew indifferent and even indignant and insolent toward the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

    Dear Saints we are living at a time when being a Christian is becoming more and more of a challenge. It is more and more obvious that our values are in direct conflict with the values of our world. Christians are beginning to be more and more marginalized by the mainstream of our North American ...read more

    What is Success? I believe everyone wants to be successful. Not too many people walk around in life saying I want to fail at this or fail at that, but we all desire success.

    What Does Success Look Like? What is Success? Acts 13:36 - "Now when David had served God's purpose in his own generation, he fell asleep; he was buried with his ancestors and his body decayed.

    "The Jesus Way" Vs "The American Way"

    Contributed by Cris Willis on Jul 29, 2014
     | 3,529 views

    A call to the modern church to return to its passion for the one who gave His life, His all for our sins, our future, our hopes, our everything that is right, good and holy exist in Him. Why then is the church pursuing a love relationship with the world!

    Introduction: Jesus said ...“I am the way, the truth, and the life” (John 14:6). The Jesus way wedded to the Jesus truth brings about the Jesus life. We can’t proclaim the Jesus truth but then do it any old way we like. Nor can we follow the Jesus way without speaking the Jesus ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,712 views

    It is our love for one another that lets our light shine unto the world and boldly states we are Christians! In 1 John 3:11-18 John states if one is indifferent or hates a brother or sister then either one is not saved or is out of fellowship with God.

    Black And White Morality--Absolutely!

    Jeremiah knew what God wanted for them, but they continually rebelled.

    Sixth Sunday in Course 2025 It’s likely that if you were educated, as I was, mostly in the 1960s or later, you might have bristled a bit at today’s Scripture passages. They have moral language that is very much black-and-white. If you trust in God and follow His way, you’ll bear much fruit; if you ...read more

    Today, we will explore what it truly means to commit to church membership, why it matters, and how it strengthens both our faith and the church itself. Through this journey, we’ll see how membership allows us to grow, serve, and fulfill our calling as followers of Christ.

    “When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in one place. Suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violent wind came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting.

    Whom Will You Meet In Heaven? Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Nov 7, 2022
     | 2,331 views

    There is so much speculation about heaven but we have very little to go on in the word. People express the hope of heaven being a reunion and we look at that. Whom do you want to meet in heaven? That is what we will consider here. Heaven could be very close.

    Whom will YOU meet in heaven? INTRODUCTION Talk to Christians about heaven and what that will be like, and you have so many variant answers. That is normal, for none of us knows any details and a lot of what we think is more in line with our own assumptions. What will you do there? Will we ...read more

    Unity in Spirit occurs as the whole body matures and disunity happens as we let the immature wreck havoc. Speaking the truth in love means words of exhortation. Unity comes as Christ is exalted. Unity means each member serving the team.

    There is an early pattern for communal worship shown in this passage. It is quite different to how we do it, today, and really involves, equips and builds the body of Christ!

    God wants His children to have longevity of life that is why he makes provision in the bible for our bodies to be spiritually, physically, mentally and emotionally balanced.

    In the last few years, we have witnessed or heard about a lot of tragedy. People that were expected to be alive were dead. A lot of young people were dead and some of them were born again.

    2Tim. 4:2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. 3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; 4 And they shall ...read more
