Unfinished Business Series

Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Mar 25, 2018

In one word in the Greek, "Tetelestai!", Jesus proclaimed that his mission was finished. His death covered all our sins, and the pursuit of his mission to the end motivates us to pursue our God-given mission as we accept his forgiveness from the cross.

Unfinished Business Seven Last Words from the Cross Part 6 * John 19:28, 30 It must be spring! In the last couple of weekends, I cut the grass twice, weeded, helped prepare a gravel and stone walkway, gathered up dead branches, and pruned the shrubs.

The Source Of Spiritual Satisfaction Series

Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Apr 18, 2012

That’s what happens when we believe in, and trust, and accept Christ. Every need of life, of nourishment, and of growth is met. Nothing is left out or lacking. This doesn’t mean that the person will never again hunger after righteousness. Because a pe

READ the whole passage. I read verse 36 and have to wonder how many people today would be the same way. If Jesus Christ walked into this sanctuary right now and told us who He was, would we believe or would we require a sign.

The Savior: Surrendered For Us Series

Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Apr 18, 2011

God usually calls us to be active, but sometimes passive. Passivity can be the more difficult of the two, because it means we accept what God brings without grasping for control. And nowhere do we see surrender to the Father's will exemplified as we do wh

Dare To Live As A Chosen Child Of God Series

Contributed by Dean Courtier on Mar 14, 2019

If you are in Christ, if you have repented and accepted Jesus as your Lord and Saviour then the Bible is clear about who you are. You are a Chosen Child of God. As children of God, we must dare to be different in our words, our deeds and our actions.

We continue in our series Dare to be Different and this month our focus is different family. Its been a while but I want to start with a couple of questions: Do you know who you are? Do others know who you are? Maybe the questions seems a little odd... I mean each of us knows who we are don’t ...read more

Affirmations - Sermon V: Belief In The Divine Conception Of Jesus Series

Contributed by Charles Cunningham on Oct 19, 2019

To affirm our Savior's divine conception is to accept God the Father's criterion of a perfect atoning sacrifice which could be provided by no mere human being - only by God's Son who was sent (came) for that redemptive purpose.

INTRODUCTION TO AFFIRMATIONS OF THE CHRISTIAN FAITH As time marches on and the aging process begins to cast a shadow on my short-term memory, my mind seems sharper now than ever regarding long-term memory. It is interesting to me that, at 85 years of age, I ...read more

How Will You Finish?

Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Oct 13, 2018

When we accept Jesus as Lord there is an excitement. We want to save the world. But over time the world beats so many of us into silence. This message is about how the Apostle Paul refused to let circumstances keep him from finishing his race.

The book of Philippians – The Back Story Roman Prison: The Tullianum (Keep) When we read scripture sometimes knowing the circumstances from which they were written can paint what we read in a totally different light. Paul’s letter to the Philippians is an excellent example of this. It’s common ...read more

Unexpected Events (Part 1) Series

Contributed by Richard Tow on Sep 7, 2021

Pivotal events can happen unexpectedly in our lives. If we are able to accept that fact and (at the same time) trust God with the changes that accompany those events, we will manage life better. This message explores unexpected events in Moses's life.

Today I want to talk about two unexpected events in Moses’s life. One was a glorious encounter with God that set him on the course for the last 40 years of his life. The other was a painful experience that equipped him to fulfill the mission given to him in the first encounter. In both cases the ...read more

Name Of God Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Sep 25, 2021

Some reason that if the death of Jesus is the atonement for the sins of the whole world, why is everyone’s sins still not forgiven? The Lord Jesus has completed all that needs to be done for our salvation, however, it is up to each one of us to accept this free gift of salvation.

We read in Psalm 91:14,“Because he holds fast to me in love, I will deliver him; I will protect him, because he knows my name.” (ESV) As we continue this series of studies on Psalm 91, from verse 14 on wards are the words of assurance from God Himself.
