    The Ascension of Elijah: An Exposition of 2 Kings 2:1-12 It has been said: “No one leaves this world alive.” Everyone knows what this means. Everyone is going to die.

    Oftentimes it is difficult for one to do what they encourage others to do.Someone can say pray for such and such and we can say I believe God will work mightily on your behalf, but when it becomes something personal then we oftentimes struggle between faith and doubt.

    Wait on Me! By Bishop Melvin L. Maughmer, Jr. OPENING: - Oftentimes it is difficult for one to do what they encourage others to do. For example my mother will tell whomever the moment they mention they may do not feel well - to go see the doctor, but when she has something wrong she will not ...read more

    Matthew's prediction of the Abomination of Desolation is compared to Luke's account of the destruction of the temple in 70 AD. Rightly diving this portion of the Olivet Discourse is crucial to understanding end-time prophecy. The focus of this message is Matthew 24:15-31.

    Last week we examined the first part of Jesus’s Olivet Discourse in Matthew 24:1-14. In that portion of the prophecy Jesus told us the conditions that would exist during this current age: deception, wars, pestilence, earthquakes, persecution, etc. In verse 8 He uses the metaphor of labor pains ...read more

    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

    Today we want to start a series of sermons on the book of Acts.

    The church that wants to please the Lord needs to look frequently into the pages of this marvelous, exciting book! The Lord promised that the “Gates of hell” should not prevail against His church, and the Book of Acts reveals that to be true. Illus: J. B. Phillips says this about those ...read more

    The Second Chapter of Acts describes the birth of the church in accordance with the declaration of the Lord Jesus (Matthew 16:13-19). Acts shows the power and direction of the Holy Spirit in the work of the church beyond the day of Pentecost.

    Every Bible-believing follower of Jesus Christ will confess, affirm, and proclaim that what happened to the one hundred and twenty followers of Jesus on the Day of Pentecost was an undeniable supernatural act of the Holy Spirit in accordance with the teaching and promise given by the Lord Jesus ...read more

    The people of God had a thirst for the living God. There’s a hunger for God’s presence. If you want to deepen your experience of Jesus, it’s nearly always because of times of extraordinary prayer.

    Today we begin a new study on the book of Acts (page 1156 in your pew Bibles). Acts is one large story but a lot of little stories inside the big story. The book is simply exciting and it leaves you saying, “WOW!” so many times. We will be going chapter by chapter and verse by verses in the months ...read more

    In zeal, many run off to find the will of God when it was right where they were when He called them.

    1 Cor 7:24 Brethren, let every man, wherein he is called, therein abide with God. When people get saved they often want to make changes in their life that are not necessary or God's will. In context, new converts were considering changes like being circumcised or uncircumcised. They wanted ...read more

    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.
