    "This Is Not That!”

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Jan 26, 2022
     | 2,745 views

    People have all kinds of hobbies. Some people collect stamps, knives, guns, butterflies, etc.

    Illus: A man in Columbia, S. C., has spent a small fortune collecting antique car replicas. You cannot help noticing how each detail of each model is exactly in scale to the original cars they represent. In every detail they look just like the original cars. You may wonder, what does that ...read more

    Lessons From Olivet

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Jan 28, 2022

     | 6,296 views

    The Mount of Olives was important to Jesus. It is a place of praise, a place of rest, a place of communion, a place of surrender, a place of blessing, and a place of retreat – things important to both Christ and believers today.

    I’ve entitled our message today “Lessons from Olivet,” and I wish to begin by reading Luke 22:39, which is our focal verse. This verse says, “Coming out, He went to the Mount of Olives, as He was accustomed, and His disciples also followed Him.” This morning, I feel led to preach a message about ...read more

    This message looks at how the Holy Spirit gives us the power to live well and to die well.

    Power of the Holy Spirit A few years ago, we had just arrived back in Port Canaveral from our February cruise and had taken the shuttle to the Alamo car rental lot. We did all the things we needed to rent our car. We showed them our licenses and declined seven upgrades, three insurance offers ...read more

    A Time To Wait, A Time Not To Wait Series

    The believers were instructed to wait in Jerusalem. They were not ready, but why not? They were absolutely convinced of the resurrection, but still not ready to launch out and take the Gospel to a lost and dying world. Wait for the power of the Holy Spirit.

    We gain a lot by studying the book of Acts. We learn about how the church grew in its infancy stage. Now over twenty percent of the world’s population claim to be true disciples of Jesus. But we are starting here with one hundred and twenty loyal believers huddled together in one room. It helps us ...read more

    This is a word, if the church is ever going to grow and grow the way I believe God wants us to grow and impact the way we say we want to see our communities impacted, that we need to apply to all our lives today.

    Resolution 2022, “Unity in the Community” Ephesians 4:1-5 NKJ I, therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you to walk worthy of the calling with which you were called, 2 with all lowliness and gentleness, with longsuffering, bearing with one another in love, 3 endeavoring to keep the unity ...read more

    You Don't Look Like Your Picture!

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Feb 18, 2022
     | 2,552 views

    The first church was powerful for the cause of Christ. When we match the present churches to that earliest congregation, we are often compelled to confess that we don't look like we are their descendants. It is past time for us to take steps to correct this situation.

    “In the first book, O Theophilus, I have dealt with all that Jesus began to do and teach, until the day when he was taken up, after he had given commands through the Holy Spirit to the apostles whom he had chosen. He presented himself alive to them after his suffering by many proofs, appearing to ...read more

    The Great Commission

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Feb 21, 2022

     | 9,232 views

    From three of the gospel writers we find “four” accounts of the Great Commission. As we examine each account, we gain a better understanding of what Jesus requires, and what we are able to accomplish through the Lord’s power.

    This morning we are going to look at four separate passages on what is known among believers as The Great Commission. The Great Commission is all about missions, since the word “commission” contains the word “mission” in it. Now, that word “commission” means, “charge, order, or mandate.”(1) This ...read more

    God is Omnipotent. When we say God is Omnipotent, we are talking about one of the attributes of God.

    This particular attribute means HE IS ALL POWERFUL! Illus: A young boy, traveling by airplane to visit his grandparents, sat beside a man who happened to be a seminary professor. The boy was reading a Sunday school take-home paper when the professor thought he would have some fun with the lad. ...read more

    The Anointing Today

    Contributed by Dr. Jonathan Vorce on Feb 26, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,804 views

    The flow of the anointing can be seen throughout the Bible and every significant revival in church history. Simply put, if there were no anointing, there would be no revival. The anointing is the burden removing, yoke destroying power of God.

    Scripture Text: Acts 1:8 INTRODUCTION Revival & Anointing Go Together DEFINITIONS: Websters ANOINT', v.t. [L. ungo.] To pour oil upon; to smear or rub over with oil or unctuous substances; also to spread over, as oil. To consecrate by unction or the use of oil. • Thou shalt anoint the ...read more

    A reflection on the Ascension of the Lord Jesus

    The Ascension - April 25, 2021 As I was preparing this message, I was doing so with a heavy heart. We know that much of life includes suffering, but it's when it hits so close to home, when it hits you or people you love, that we really become aware of it.

    In faith we tell God, “I believe this because you have revealed it for my good, even and especially when I can’t understand it.”

    Ascension Day 2021 “You’ve got to be kidding. This is impossible. It’s all impossible.” That’s what the skeptic is bound to say about everything we’ve been reading since Good Friday.

    There are three events in the life of Christ that get an awful lot of publicity: the birth of Jesus, the death of Jesus, and the resurrection of Jesus. We have recognized holidays for each of these: Christmas, Good Friday, and we have Easter. But the Ascension of Jesus is neglected by comparison.
