Honour God By Doing Good

Contributed by Christian Cheong on May 4, 2023

The Pharisees wanted to use the Sabbath to trap Jesus and accuse Him of wrongdoing. Jesus went into the synagogue on the Sabbath to honour God and do good, which is the true purpose of the Sabbath. He obeys the will of God and does what is right despite the opposition.

A New Year’s Examination

Contributed by Kelvin Mckisic on Jan 10, 2024

With a new year comes a time for self-examination of your life and your relationship with Jesus Christ. Have you ghosted Him? Have you friend zoned Him? Or do you have a loving relationship with Him?

It is our tradition in this church, as well as many others, to share the ordinance of the Lord’s Supper on the first Sunday of the month. Paul’s admonition to the Corinthian Christians is especially appropriate as one begins a new year: “Let a man examine himself.” Being that this is the first ...read more

Spring is the time we plan our gardens and prepare our seeds to plant. After a period of growing, we harvest. God planted His garden, Earth. God placed mankind in it to cultivate the ground. Soon, God shall send out the angels to harvest the earth. But something interferes with the seeds planted.

And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his ...read more

What Is The Source Of Temptation?

Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Jul 26, 2023

The sermon title asks, What is the Source of Temptation? Just who is it who lures us into sin? We immediately want to say Satan and blame him. We say, “the devil made me do it,” but the answer is a bit closer to home. Thankfully, the solution is as close as prayer.

For the next few weeks I would like to talk about temptation. What is it that tempts you? Is it food? We all have a favorite food. We get a whiff of it, and our mouth starts watering. It's so tempting. The urge to take a bite of cake may not necessarily be a bad thing, but we're often ...read more
