    Trust And Obey (2 Of 2)

     | 1,855 views

    This morning we looked at something we talk, teach, preach and sing about, that is, “TRUST AND OBEY!”

    We dealt with the TRUST this morning, but this evening we would like to deal with the OBEY part of that song. Something that Peter and the early disciples understood that today’s church does not understand, is that WE CHRISTIANS ARE TO OBEY GOD. They understood that you obeyed God: • When it was ...read more

    In Christ we see the entire scope of the punishment of sin and avenue of rescue, and because of Jesus, Paul preaches to those in the synagogue to hear the truth. What we must see in this is this our purpose as well!

    Count It As Joy

    Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Jul 8, 2024
     | 1,284 views

    When faced with the ungodly things of this world, the Bible tells us to "count it all joy." This message looks at how we can do that.

    Count it all Joy Good evening to the Lord’s beloved. Would you please open to Hebrews 12? I “joined” church when I was 10 years old. Back then it meant the same thing as accepting Jesus. I started out as a baby. I didn’t know anything about being a Christian. That was 57 years, six months and 72 ...read more

    Reasons To Be Faithful To God In Persecution Series

    Contributed by T.j. Conwell on Feb 18, 2024
     | 944 views

    There are two different topics to explore in this message: The reasons to stay faithful to God during a persecution, and, the role of deacons (or elders or servants) in the church. All of these come as a result of the faithfulness of the early believers, and should be an encouragement for us.

Everything from Elvis still being alive in a gas station in Minnesota to the Loch Ness monster and Bigfoot. Musicians cannot escape their own conspiracies it seems ...read more

    What is coming and how much of it will you be here for? Is there a way to not be here for it? There is. But you must be counted worthy.

    We live in very sobering times. We are in the end part of the end times, wondering when the antichrist will appear. Already the spirit of antichrist is prevalent in the world.

     | 2,916 views

    We in America do not have any real experience with religious persecution like we find in other countries. However, over the past decades we have seen reverence for the name of Jesus become mockery. What will we do when proclaiming Jesus becomes outlawed?

    Persecution - Are You Ready For It? Please stand with me as we go over our current memory Scripture: Psalm 1:1-2 “Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked or stand in the way of sinners or sit in the seat of mockers.

    How To Biblically Respond To The New Us President?

     | 3,095 views

    Many Christians worried that America will become more liberal under the new leader and leave Christian values. As Christians who want to do God's commands, how should we respond to our country's leader biblically, especially if we disagree with his policies?

    Praise God, the presidential inauguration last Wednesday has proceeded safely. America now has a new president and vice president. However, it is clear that not everyone likes the new president Joseph Biden. Jim Denison wrote, "Moments before the president-elect took the stage for his ...read more

    Obedience And The Other Witness - 8 Of 14 Series

    Contributed by Russell Metcalfe on Jan 28, 2021
     | 1,589 views

    We must obey God, not human authority. We need to believe that what we are doing is God's will. We don't ask God's blessing on OUR ideas and plans— instead we submit our will to HIS.

    April 19, 1998 And we are witnesses of these things; and so is the Holy Spirit, whom God has given to those who obey him.

    Jesus Delivers His Church

     | 3,828 views

    In his church, the Lord Jesus is still doing the good work that He has begun, and He is doing it unstoppably.

    Beloved in Christ, I’d be worried if the church was a human effort. If it was up to us alone to defend the church, maintain her unity, or increase her numbers, we’d have reason to be concerned. For the church would certainly follow the path of so many man-made clubs and societies—for a while strong ...read more
