    What Do People Do In Heaven? Series

     | 6,195 views

    Any ability or talent or appearance or power or fame we receive is entirely derivative-an expression of His goodness imputed to us for a short while. Satan wanted worship for himself. Saints seek to bring worship to their God.

    And around the throne, twenty four thrones, and on the thrones twenty four elders sitting, clothed in white garments, and on their heads, golden crowns (of victory) And out of the throne came lightnings and voices and thunders, and seven fiery lamps burning before the throne, which are the seven ...read more

    Time flies. Months slip away. Years are lost. Before we know it, a decade has passed. However, decades of the past can teach us today!

    The 70’s I. Introduction A decade. 10 years. While we are in the middle of it it seems to crawl by but then when it is gone we look back and we are amazed at how quickly time has escaped. Last week we looked at the 60's! Now we move forward a decade and check out the 70's! Again one of the best ...read more

    Contributed by Pastor Randall Timblin on Sep 9, 2018
     | 4,696 views

    We are often engaged in "Anger Spells" and do not know where we should turn for remedy or rest.

    Who among us has never been angry… How about a show of hands if this applies to you! I know I have… cause I’ve seen me do it! 99 men out of 100 have been seriously angry… The other one won't admit it! Have you noticed that other emotions seem to get in the act when you are angry? Come on… am I ...read more

    Facing Roadblocks To An Effectual Prayer Life?

     | 6,304 views

    Prayer is important not only to God but for us. There are many roadblocks and obstacles to an effective prayer life. Good prayer is not a "spare tire mentality" but "a steering wheel!"

    FACING THE ROADBLOCKS TO AN EFFECTUAL PRAYER LIFE? By Wade Martin Hughes, Sr. Kyfingers@aol.com James 5:16 Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed.

     | 9,824 views

    Let us study trust? We trust tires, batteries, and elevators, why not try trusting God. You may want to walk on water to feed your ego, but maybe God says: TRUST MY PLAN.

    DO WE REALLY TRUST GOD? By Wade Martin Hughes, Sr. Kyfingers@aol.com I have been in the full pastoral ministry 37 years. I know what it means to abound, I have also learned about being abased. There have been days when I thought I heard a 747 flying over my head and I looked up to see the ...read more

     | 9,573 views

    Just days prior to the crucifixion, Jesus spoke to His disciples regarding the events surrounding the end times. While we cannot predict the day, nor the hour, we can see the stage being set for His return!

    Signs of the End (Part 1) Matthew 24: 3-14 Today I want to begin a study on what is known as the Olivet Discourse. Jesus spoke these words in His last days prior to the crucifixion in response to the disciples’ questions regarding His return and the end of the age. These verses have been ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 21,275 views

    We make choices that often affects us our entire lives; whether good or bad.

    Introduction. The strongest principle of life and blessings lies in our choice. Our life is the sum result of all the choices we make, both consciously and unconsciously. If we can control the process of choosing, we can take control of all aspects of our life. We can find the freedom that comes ...read more

    Why Are We Told To Take No Thought For Our Lives?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on May 6, 2023
     | 967 views

    We should turn our worries into prayers. While we are in prayer and with thanksgiving in our hearts, we should learn to give it to God and leave it there.

    Matthew 6:25-34 closes this piece of the Sermon on the Mount with Jesus teaching about worrying. Indeed, even to the extremely poor, Jesus says not to stress over food or garments. God takes care of the birds and garments the lilies in a beautiful manner, and God’s children are definitely more ...read more

    Nineteenth Sunday In Ordinary Time- How To Walk On Water.

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Jul 5, 2023
     | 1,641 views

    To walk on water means to perform a task where the challenge greatly exceeds one’s level of skills without becoming anxious and stressed.

    How to walk on water. I saw a cartoon that showed a lady walking on some cases of bottled water and the caption read, “Walking on water”! Another person said, “I walk on water every time it rains. Thin water, but water just the same. [And] just so you know, I drive on water too.” To walk on ...read more

    No Greater Love! Series

    Contributed by Brian Williams on Jul 13, 2023
     | 1,792 views

    Jesus’ love wasn’t empty words. His love was manifested as he stood silent before His mockers and accusers, by every cruel lash He took for us, by every step He took on the road to Calvary, by each nail driven into his body. This should have been us.

    Every sermon we preach, no matter what time of year it is, points to the Person of Jesus Christ because He is the Cornerstone of our faith. Christ’s incarnation - was when God, the Creator of the earth and of every living creature and of the entire universe was born on the earth as a man. Christ’s ...read more

    Without God, the covenant of marriage is no more than a contract. But with his help, marriage can grow into what God designed it to be at creation.

    When I was a freshman in college, at George Washington U in Washington DC, I worked in the reference library re-shelving books three afternoons a week. One afternoon in late spring I heard a sort of a distant bell-ringing sound, but didn’t really pay any attention to it, until I noticed that half ...read more

    Name That Heresy

    Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on Oct 22, 2023
     | 1,197 views

    We are not to keep silent when heresy is proclaimed. To be silent is to be a partner to it. Silence is not golden in this area.

    "..Christians nowadays simply don't care about the prevalence of false doctrine, nor do they take seriously their duty to fight against apostasy. Instead they want a friendly atmosphere of open acceptance for everyone, tolerance of opposing ideas, and charitable dialogue with the ...read more

    Unanswered Prayer (Part 2) Series

    Contributed by Benjamin Utomo on Mar 1, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,847 views

    God invites us to ask Him, and we will receive (Mat 7:7). But why does He sometimes not answer our prayers? This sermon series explains several possibilities for why God does not grant our prayers.

    We have learned that God invites us to ask Him what we need (Matthew 7:7) because, number one, God wants us to be close to Him; number two, God wants us to always depend on Him; and number three, God wants to show His love to us. When we ask something from Him, we must be ready to get His ...read more
