    The message Jesus committed to his disciples never changes, though the method of communication must always be subject to change.

    The world's first text message was sent from a computer to a cellphone by British engineer, Neil Papworth. As reported by CTV News, Papworth sent the text message to his boss on December 03, 1992. It read: "Merry Christmas" and this single text message revolutionized the way we communicate.

    Jesus gave the ultimate commentary on the Old Testament law, yet it is not very well understood in the Christian community. In this the first of several sermons, we will explore the law and the Christian.

    Intro In the sermon on the mount Jesus called us salt and light, then condemned whoever sets aside the least of God’s commands. Does that mean that Christians should put to death idolaters, Sabbath breakers, adulterers and those who dishonor their parents, sacrifices animals, be ...read more

    Barnabas' name means, "Son of Encouragement". What can we learn about his encouraging ways and how can we put them into practice?

    BE A BARNABITE INTRODUCTION: The devil once advertised his tools for sale at public auction. When the prospective buyers assembled, there was one oddly shaped tool, which was labeled "Not for sale."

    An obscure verse in the Book of Zechariah describes the wounds in the hands of Jesus and the circumstances that caused those wounds. Great lead in to the Lord's Supper.

    THE WOUNDED HANDS Zech. 13:6 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. Four ladies from their church’s WM group were driving home one Sunday afternoon when they are involved in a terrible car crash.

    Jesus' Answer To Prejudice And Discrimination

    Contributed by Byron Perrine on Jul 9, 2019
     | 9,032 views

    In this my adaption of a sermon by Eric Carey-Holt, I have focused on what I believe to have been the Lord’s original intent in His parable of the “Good Samaritan”, addressing the problem of racial discrimination, and socio-economic, gender, and religious prejudice.

    (If you have found this sermon helpful, we invite you to visit us at www.HeritageRestorationProject.org or www.ChristianWisdom.info) One researcher found in a survey that 49% of the people interviewed said they would be able to tell the story of the Good Samaritan if asked to do so, 45% said they ...read more

    Being Led Series

    Contributed by Allan Quak on Aug 2, 2019
     | 6,171 views

    The author of Hebrews commands the congregation to remember, imitate, have confidence in and submit to godly leaders. The godly leaders who should be imitated are those who have a consistency in their relationship with Jesus, are biblically wise, and who equip the church to be distinct.

    Message Hebrews 13:7-17 Being Led When you read through your Bible, especially the New Testament, you will regularly come across headings. The purpose of the headings is to give guidance on the different sections of Scripture that part of the same topic or section. The technical term for this is ...read more

    The Final Post Resurrection Appearance In John's Gospel Series

    Contributed by Revd. Martin Dale on Apr 24, 2020
     | 5,005 views

    Peter had failed Jesus by denying him 3 times and Jesus forgives him by allowing him to negate each of the three denials. We will fail but when we come to Jesus he will restore us

    Jn 21:1-19 Introduction As I mentioned last Sunday and also on Easter Sunday, John records only four of the Post Resurrection appearances of Jesus. I think his reason for doing so is that the aim of his book is to awaken faith – and not to be - JUST another historical record of the times of ...read more

     | 6,413 views

    Mark's ending, unique among the gospels, connects the empty tomb to real-life struggles, as it ends with the women "bewildered and afraid." As we join the women there, we grasp the life-changing impact of the resurrection.

    ON A MORNING LIKE THIS—Mark 16:1-8 “In the sky the song of the skylark greets the dawn in the fields wet with dew The scent of the violets fills the air on such a lovely morning as this Surely on such a lovely morning as this Lord Jesus came forth from the tomb.” John Carden, A Procession of ...read more

     | 8,352 views

    We live in an age when most are not receptive to the Gospel. Many believers lack confidence in their ability to share their faith. How do we gain confidence to be an effective disciple and witness? The answer is in Christ alone.

    The Confidence in Discipleship John 15:7-11 If you have been with us for the past few weeks considering discipleship, you have realized following the Lord is not for the faint of heart or uncommitted. The Lord has spoken about denying ourselves, bearing our cross, and following Him. He spoke of ...read more

    In the Bible we see the authority of Jesus being questioned regarding the clearing of the temple. What authority does Jesus have in your life when it comes to getting rid of things that Jesus would like to remove?

    Mark 11:27-33 (Please open your Bibles so you can read along) (Briefly describe the following from Mark 11) Jesus arrives at the Jerusalem late in the day and walks around looking at everything.
