    With the growing numbers of Muslims in our communities we now have the opportunity to present the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ to Muslims. Though it may seem difficult, nothing is too difficult for God.

    HOW CAN WE REACH A MUSLIM WITH THE GOSPEL? Philip Roberts of Midwestern Baptist Theol. Seminary said when developing a plan for witnessing to Muslims, “Muslims rarely hear a truthful presentation of the gospel.” [They may need dozens.] With the growing numbers of Muslims in our country and ...read more

    A Wild Life Series

    based on 38 ratings
     | 31,723 views

    Jesus saved us to live a wild and adventurous life. But how can we do that? We're not apostles like Peter and John were. We don't have their courage and experience. We're just common ordinary folks... or are we?

    OPEN: When we first started this series, I sang the chorus to “Born To Be Wild” (by Steppenwolf). This morning I want to sing for you the 1st phrase of the first verse of that song: “Get your motor runnin' - Head out on the highway. Lookin' for adventure and whatever comes our ...read more

    The Gospel

     | 19,983 views

    With American society becoming more pluralistic, it is ever more important for believers to understand the simplicity of the gospel. This message explains what the gospel is and the three phases of salvation: justification, sanctification & glorification.

    Romans 1:15-16 5-24-15 Our text this morning is Rom 1:15-16. In that passage Paul says, “So, as much as is in me, I am ready to preach the gospel to you who are in Rome also. 16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the ...read more

    The Name Of The Lord

     | 37,522 views

    A theme in the bible dating back to the third generation when "people began calling on the name of the Lord." It is vitally important to recognize the importance of the Lord's name--it is "hallowed." By calling on it we are saved.

    Undeniable Jesus

    I was reminded this week about the power and influence a person’s testimony can have on others, religious or not. Saints where are our stories of faith? Where are our testimonies to the power of Jesus name? Have our voices become muted to the truth?

    Acts 4:1-22 Undeniable Jesus Message: Oscar Wilde has been attributed with the phrase “no good deed goes unpunished”. The phrase suggest that in order to accomplish a truly good deed one has to suffer bad consequences in order to see a good outcome. Much of Christian ministry is like this. We ...read more

    When doing good and right or speaking up for Jesus is hardest we should just do it anyway.

    “JUST DO IT ANYWAY!” ACTS 4:8-20; 5:25-29 David P. Nolte There are things in life that are hard to do, but if they are important enough, and if they are right, we do them anyway. There are sacrifices we are called upon to make that we find inconvenient and excessively costly; but if we are ...read more

    The Dangers Of Biblical Ignorance

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Sep 20, 2018
     | 9,491 views

    We live in a Biblically ignorant society. In many churches the Bible is only given lip service but no serious merit. Knowledge of the Word of God and how it is applied is a matter of eternal life and death.

    If you would, please stand as we say together our memory Scripture for this quarter: Matthew 6:31-33 “Do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. “But ...read more

    You Can Go To Hell Series

     | 19,866 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
     | 10,272 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

    Part 6 of this series focuses on how our lifestyle can give Satan the power to threaten us into silence when it comes to speaking the Word of God in our lives and the lives of others.

    Satan’s Battle Tactics Part 6 Scriptures: John 10:10; Acts 4:1-21; Matthew 10:28 Last week we traveled home to bury Nikki’s grandmother.

    The healing of a man lame from birth, the preaching of Jesus' resurrection, and the call to salvation.

    HEALING, RESURRECTION, AND SALVATION. Acts 4:5-12. There is a parallel between the persecution of Jesus upon the healing of a man ‘blind from birth’ (John 9:1), and the persecution of Peter and John upon the healing of a man ‘lame from his mother's womb’ (Acts 3:2). Suffice it to say that ...read more
