    The Other Advent (The Return Of Christ)

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Jun 15, 2016
     | 4,468 views

    It is important to know what the Bible says and doesn't say about Jesus' return. There are those who say He has already returned, others say He will never return and still others have what they believe is an exact timeline. Let's check the Bible!

    1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 NIV (Please look this up in your Bibles and follow along) (While they look up the Scripture ...) Is there anyone here who enjoys the Advent Season; when we anticipate the arrival of Jesus on earth? Well, if you do, you should be happy now because we have been in an advent ...read more

    Don't look at the big setback, see the big picture. Don't look at the big self, see the works of God. Don't look at the big things, listen to the voice of God.

    Elijah had a great victory against the false prophets of Baal on Mount Carmel. • He challenged the 450 prophets to call on their god to bring down fire and burn up the sacrifice. They failed, after a whole day of shouting. • At the time of the evening sacrifice, Elijah repaired the altar of the ...read more

    What began as an intended temporary stay in Moab, turned into ten years of despair and suffering. Upon hearing the Lord had visited His people, Naomi made the wise decision to begin the long journey home. It would prove beneficial.

    Because eyes that would see God and ears that would hear God, Anna truly did behold her Redeemer and would then announce His redemption.

    LUKE 2: 36-38 [Christmas] ANNA’S PRAYER OF THANKSGIVING Luke here reveals Anna’s prayer of thanksgiving to God for the coming of the long-awaited Messiah.

    Judgment Day Reveals The Righteousness Of God Series

    Contributed by Jonathan Kruschel on Dec 30, 2019
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,752 views

    If the guilty go free we call it a travesty, an injustice, unfair. Yet, the Bible says that on Judgment Day the guilty will go free? How can God do that? Is that fair or right? It’s because of God’s righteousness that guilty sinners go free on Judgment Day.

    It just didn’t seem right or fair. The evidence of guilt was overwhelming. The witnesses had poured in one after another recounting firsthand of destructive and damaging conversations and actions. Fingerprints were found everywhere that clearly connected the person standing before the judge to ...read more

    Are we waiting in eager expectation for the gift of the Spirit? A heavy re-work of a much earlier sermon from many years ago, which is looking to provoke a change in peoples perspectives.

    In the Name of the living God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Amen. Very, very occasionally I will head off somewhere on a train, and as I look around the platform, it doesn’t take too long to see that there is a difference between how adults and children wait for its arrival.

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Apr 10, 2022
     | 2,332 views

    Palm Sunday reminds us that the message of the cross, the message of salvation, must be set in the context of Jesus being king. And we must recognize Jesus as the king he is, not the king we might like him to be.

    In a typical year about 3.5 million people visit Jerusalem. It’s one of the most historic cities in the world. It has been continuously inhabited since about 1,800 B.C. So it’s been worth visiting for a VERY long time! But in the time of Jesus, there were certain times of the year when Jews had ...read more

    Memorial For A Dear Friend

    Contributed by Michael Stark on May 11, 2017
     | 12,669 views

    A funeral message delivered on the death of a close friend. Though a good woman, she never professed Christ, nor did her family confess the Saviour. Nevertheless, they were good to me over a long period of time, showing respect for the Faith of Christ.

    “Just as it is appointed for man to die once, and after that comes judgment, so Christ, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time, not to deal with sin but to save those who are eagerly waiting for him” [HEBREWS 9:27, 28].
