     | 2,286 views

    If we're going to get in trouble, let it be "good trouble, necessary trouble."

    In 2014, ISIS began to retake territory around Mosul, Iraq. Militant began singling out Christians by marking the Arabic letter “n” [IMAGE] on homes and businesses. It stands for Nazrani or, Nazarene, the arabic word for “Christian.” A not-so-subtle to convert or be killed. History is filled with ...read more

    We need to operate in the following four areas, in order to be connected with God and receive His guidance: 1. obey God’s voice, 2. be sensitive to the spirit, 3. have an understanding of the scripture, and 4. be adding souls to the kingdom.

    Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on May 8, 2023
     | 2,306 views

    Various churches have various teachings and various practices concerning baptism. But that does not mean that the Bible does not provide us with a good understanding of the will of God in the matter of baptism.

    Alba 5-7-2023 THERE IS ONE BAPTISM Ephesians 4:5 The story is told of a preacher who had just starting serving a new congregation. For eight Sundays in a row he preached about baptism. Finally, the chairman of the elders approached him and said, “Preacher, we get the point about baptism, and so ...read more

     | 2,797 views

    The persecution forced the church to decisions that would unlock the full potential of the Church in terms of scope, efficiency, and effectiveness. The Church at Jerusalem became the Church on the move. We are a part of that movement.

    Sermon: Following God’s Mission For Kingdom Expansion Scripture: Acts 8:1-8 “Saul was one of the witnesses, and he agreed completely with the killing of Stephen. A great wave of persecution began that day, sweeping over the church in Jerusalem; and all the believers except the apostles were ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 3,329 views

    In this exposition of Jesus's 8th Beatitude ("Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake"), we explore biblical revelation as to why persecution is a blessing, more specifically, what are the benefits of persecution for God's people.

    Intro We are considering the 8th Beatitude in Matthew 5:10: “Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, For theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” Persecution is a major theme in Scripture. We see it in the first family; it runs all through the Old and New Testaments; and in the ...read more

    The Work Of An Evangelist

    Contributed by Terry Hovey on May 19, 2023
     | 1,487 views

    The Great Commission is our call to evangelize the world. It applies to every believer, without exception. And if you are a believer, but don’t have the desire to tell others about Jesus...then you are not right with God.

    The Work of an Evangelist Acts 8:26-40 Sitting in his Roman cell, knowing that the time of his death was at hand, the apostle Paul wrote one last letter to his protégé, Timothy, and encouraged him to remain faithful to the very end. He told him to 2Ti 4:5 …be watchful in all things, ...read more

    The crucifixion of Jesus was not a random incident: it was part of God’s plan from eternity

    It was a journey of some two thousand kilometers—from Jerusalem all the way back to what is modern-day Sudan. The lone traveler had come to worship at the Temple. And I can only imagine that it was for him a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. As his horse plodded along, he occupied his time by ...read more

    The Ethiopian Eunuch Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Jul 7, 2023
     | 4,206 views

    There is no doubt that the Ethiopian Eunuch had the joy of salvation and he would be sharing to the ends of the earth what he learned from the prophet of Isaiah and what he experienced in his new life in Christ.

    The Ethiopian Eunuch Acts 8:26-40 The story of the Ethiopian Eunuch is a pivotal passage for many reasons. One of those reasons is that it is considered the fulfilment of Acts 1:8. At the coming of the Holy Spirit the gospel would go to Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria and the ends of the earth. ...read more

     | 1,905 views

    Philip was doing a great work in Samaria when the Holy Spirit sent him on what seemed a strange mission: go to Gaza, a desert region, and then get into a chariot. He obeyed, an Ethiopian official believed, and followed the Lord in baptism.

    Foreword: Full disclosure, I am a Southern Baptist and present this message from that perspective. Water baptism is part of the Great Commission (Matthew 28, Mark 16, e.g.) and is mentioned in connection with belief and with becoming a disciple. It is readily admitted there are others who hold ...read more
