    It is possible for one to consider himself faithful but still not produce any practical fruit for the kingdom of Christ.

    FAITHFUL OR FRUITFUL? Matt. 25:14-30 INTRO. Parables defined -- a story used to illustrate a spiritual truth. Why Jesus used parables -- Matt. 13:10-11 So this parable is to teach us some spiritual truth about the working of the kingdom of heaven. In order to find that truth we must ...read more

    Faith: A Fruit Of The Spirit Series

    Contributed by Patrick Nix on Aug 1, 2010
    based on 4 ratings
     | 13,088 views

    Faith is not something we can muster up or dig down deep to find. It is the fruit of God in the life of His surrendered child. In God, this is called foreknowledge. In us, it is the assurance of His foreknowledge. In Him, this is omniscience. For the

    Faith can be the difficult to find when you need it most. It is in the darkness of temptation and in the lonely, sinful distance we need its light most. In Ephesians 2:8, Paul reminds us that faith “is the gift of God” and that it comes from God – it is not something we can muster up or dig down ...read more

     | 4,571 views

    The occupy Wall Street movement has missed the mark. It is faceless and pointless. People need Jesus as the center of life, a more abundant life.

    In recent days, I have watched protesters, anarchists and the homeless camp in our nation’s parks and sit outside businesses and city halls with signs of protest. What is their point, what are they doing? Let’s look at a typical day in the life of a protestor. 10AM get up, 11 AM smoke, 12 noon, ...read more

    A look at the father in the parable of the Prodigal Son as an example of Godly fatherhood.

    An Exemplary Father Luke 15:11-24 FATHER’S DAY IS ALMOST UPON US and it reminded me of a story I read about a dad who really understood his role.

    The only remedy for the darkness in the world is to produce more light!

    IT IS SAFE TO SAY THAT ANYTIME ANYONE ENTERS A DARKENED ROOM THAT THE FIRST THING THEY WANT TO DO IS FIND THE SWITCH TO TURN ON THE LIGHTS SO THEY CAN SEE. OTHER THAN TO SLEEP, I HONESTLY DON’T THINK MOST PEOPLE ENJOY DARKNESS. IT IS ENVELOPING AND SUFFOCATING. IT CAN SOMETIMES BE UNDERSTOOD AS ...read more

    What do you do when you are faced with a difficult decision? (work, home, family, friends, ethical, non ethical) What do you do when there doesn’t seem to be a clear answer?

    Caught in the Act Chapter summary. Jesus is teaching again in the temple courts when the religious leaders drag in a woman caught in the act of adultery and challenge Him to sentence her. He avoids their trap by calling on “any one of you” who is without sin to cast the first stone—and one by one ...read more
