Paul's Defense Series

Contributed by John Lowe on May 21, 2017

The Sinner's Prayer-Comforting Words That Never Saved A Soul Series

Contributed by Charles Payne on Oct 31, 2025

“Just pray and ask Jesus into your heart.” It sounds simple and heartfelt. But there’s one problem: the Bible never says it.

The Servant Of Isaiah 49 In Luke-Acts Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Oct 19, 2024

Part 2 of a rabbit trail exploring how the servant's calling is picked up not just by Jesus, but also by Ananias, Paul and Barnabas, in Acts. We are all to be lights, and "salvation," up to the ends of the earth.

Two weeks ago, we worked our way through Isaiah 49:1-6. When I taught on it, I said that these are the words of God's exilic prophet. The prophet feels like his ministry has been a waste of his time and energy. It's accomplished nothing. And God responds to him, not by arguing with him, ...read more

Sermon # 31- Who Is On The Throne? Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Dec 3, 2024

When the King of Nineveh heard the preaching of Jonah and knew that God’s judgement was impending, he got off his throne and humbled himself before God, the King of kings. God must be enthroned in our hearts too and we must allow Him to rule over our lives.

We read in Jonah 3:6, “When the king of Nineveh heard about it, he got up from his throne, took off his robe, put on sackcloth, and sat down in ashes.” (GNB) When the King of Nineveh heard about the impending judgement as preached by the prophet Jonah, he immediately got up from his throne, took ...read more

Water Baptism

Contributed by Pastor Renji George on Aug 18, 2024

But the baptism in the Holy Spirit is not a substitute for Water Baptism. Neither is Water Baptism a substitute for the baptism in the Holy Spirit. They are two separate but complementary provisions of God for every person who comes to faith in Jesus Christ.

“Go ye therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit: teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world.” (Matthew 28:19-20) We learn ...read more

Paul To Crowd At Jerusalem Series
