    Standing Up To Opposition Series

     | 8,367 views

    We praise God when life is good, how do we respond when facing oppostion? We look at the aftermath of the miracle at the Beautiful Gate.

    It’s easy to praise God when things are going well, isn’t it? The boss commended you on a job well one. The kids have been unusually obedient this week. All the bills got paid before the money ran out. Life is good, praise God! But what about when times get tough? Will you praise ...read more

    What kind of an impression are you making? Is it temporal or is it eternal? Anyone can leave a mark, but it takes effort to leave a positive impression.

    LASTING IMPRESSIONS Acts 3:6 Then Peter said, Silver and gold have I none; but such as I have give I thee: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk. Acts 4:9-13 9 If we this day be examined of the good deed done to the impotent man, by what means he is made whole; 10 Be ...read more

    Pentecost Today

     | 8,015 views

    This message explores a brief historical meaning of Pentecost and then brings that meaning into today. What should be our response to Pentecost Today?

    Text: Acts 2:1-4 I. The Meaning of Pentecost A. Pentecost is a one day celebration that follows the Harvest Feast, Feast of First Fruits, or Feast of Weeks. This feast lasted for 7 weeks or 49 days. Pentecost is the next day, the 50th day. 1. Pentecost was the Jewish harvest-home celebration. ...read more

    The Holy Spirit - Part 3 Of 9 Series

    Contributed by Sam Mccormick on Jul 3, 2017
     | 25,538 views

    Jesus said "If I do not go away, the Helper will not come." Why not? This part examines that question as well as our dependence on the Holy Spirit, and his function as our guarantee, grieving the Holy Spirit, and the indwelling of the Holy Spirit.

    THE HOLY SPIRIT This nine-part series was originally developed for a class environment, and later adapted for use in a prison ministry conducted via correspondence. Because of that background, questions were developed for each lesson for participants to use in a setting conducive to discussion, or ...read more

    Ashamed Of Jesus?

    Contributed by Sam Mccormick on Jul 9, 2017
     | 5,587 views

    In 1765, Joseph Grigg (1720-1768) of England wrote the wonderful words of the song "Jesus and Shall It Ever Be," which proposes several answers to the question, "Ashamed of Jesus?" The answers are various ways of saying "I will never be ashamed of him!"

    Ashamed of Jesus? Things have changed much in this country in the last 40 years. I now find myself surprised when I hear the name of Jesus mentioned in a public setting. Not only have judges handed out rulings that restrict the mention and exhibition of things pertaining to the Christian faith, ...read more

    When we are in Christ the word of God says that we are a now a new creation.

    2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new. Anyone who is joined to Christ is a new being, the old is gone, the new has come - GNT If anyone belongs to Christ, there is a new creation ( the new ...read more

    You Can Go To Hell Series

     | 19,688 views

    Jesus said He would build His church. What we read in Acts 4 is how He intended to do it. What do we read there that helps us understand our part in Christ's construction crew?

    There’s the true story of a southern church that had been stressing the importance of witnessing to people. One particularly slow young man in the congregation took the idea to heart, but he wasn’t quite sure how to do it. Then, that Sunday, a skeptic visited the church one Sunday, and the boy ...read more

    Can You Be Threatened?

    Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Feb 4, 2018
    based on 2 ratings
     | 10,190 views

    Many in the Body of Christ are living in compromise. They are allowing the world to dictate what they will and will not believe about the Bible. How does this happen? Peter and John's confrontation with the religious leaders in Acts 4 shows us how.

    I was thinking about Bro. Alain’s message this morning and what saddens me so much is how much of the Body of Christ is living in compromise and we don’t even realize it. And I thought about a Republican senator here in Ohio who came out strong and hard against homosexuality. He came out strong and ...read more

    Solus Christus - Salvation Through Christ Alone Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 151,249 views

    Solus Christus is one of the five basic doctrines re-captured after the Reformation. Jesus, the Christ, so saturates the NT that anyone reading through the Bible would be amazed to find that people would think salvation could be found in anyone else!

    Please open your Bibles to Acts 4:5-12 which we will read in a few minutes. A couple of weeks ago we took a look at the five “Solas” that were established after the Protestant Reformation came along in 1517. The Latin word Sola simply means something that stands alone, something that is the only ...read more

    What Are You Looking At?

    Should the saint be different from the sinner in what they look at? What are you looking at????? Does it really matter? If no one was looking, what would you look at? What are you looking at?

    WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING AT???? Time Study -- Watching TV vs. Doing Things With or For the Lord (Discuss the content of Television programs and movies.) Do you think that what you are looking at will affect how you behave and how you speak? "But it's only a movie!" Scripture: Acts ...read more

    Pelagianism – Works Versus The Gospel Of Grace

    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Oct 29, 2019
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,075 views

    There are many within Christianity who may unknowingly deny God’s free and eternal gift of salvation by requiring a well-meaning, but a misdirected emphasis on adhering to the Law.

    There is a belief, known as Pelagianism, that has lingered in the church for over 1600 years, which does not accept that the sinful condition of humankind was inherited from Adam and Eve in the Fall (Genesis 3). It is the belief that motivated the ministry of Charles Finney, who is known as the ...read more

    We need to be bold in our witness for Christ. We are one generation away from being a pagan nation.

    This sermon series entitled “The Ends of the Earth” is about how we, as the body of Christ, have been directed to reach a lost world for Him. So how are we doing? Not how has the church done in the past, but how is the church in reaching the lost doing today? The fact is, we are but one ...read more
