     | 1,236 views

    Jude exhorts us "to contend for the faith which was once for all delivered to the saints." A falure to clearly identify "the faith" has resulted in the proliferation of denominations and sects because divisions arose of opinions on matters of expediency.

    CONTENDING FOR THE FAITH “Beloved, although I was very eager to write to you about our common salvation, I found it necessary to write appealing to you to contend for the faith that was once for all delivered to the saints” (Jude v.3) INTRODUCTION A.

    Message In 1peter – Number 2 – Mercy Has Worked An Inheritance For You Reserved In Heaven – 1peter 1:3-4 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on May 9, 2023
     | 1,368 views

    Peter sees mercy as the great operating factor in our salvation, producing a living hope, an inheritance that is reserved in heaven, imperishable and pure. God’s mercy which flowed from God’s love, will not disappoint. This living hope can not disappoint because its roots lie with a merciful God.

    MESSAGE IN 1PETER – NUMBER 2 – MERCY HAS WORKED AN INHERITANCE FOR YOU RESERVED IN HEAVEN – 1Peter 1:3-4 [1]. WISHES AND EXPECTATIONS One common feature of human beings is the use of the word “wish.” “I wish I could this or that thing . . .” Allied with this are a number of expectations that ...read more

    A life worth living is a life on mission.

    Paul speaks here of how the Spirit was leading him to go to Jerusalem. Paul said that he was committed to following Christ, even if the only promise given him was that he’d face difficulty. I wonder, if the Spirit spoke to you as He had to Paul, would you obey? If you knew that following God ...read more

    In Acts 19-21 we see Paul intent on returning to Jerusalem, even ignoring Holy Spirit inspired warnings. What was his rationale?

    There are a couple of saying attributed to Francis of Assisi that have always been troubling to me. Every time we hear something from a preacher past or present what are we to do? We are to search the Scriptures to see if it is so, so let's do so!

    Was Francis Right? Please stand with me as we go over our current memory Scripture: Matthew 5:3-5 “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted. Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.” And our memory ...read more

    Paul sees the elders of the Ephesian church for the last time. He gives them a charge: 'Be on guard for yourselves and for all the flock.' It's a message the church needs to hear today.
