Surrendered Saints

Contributed by Donnie Martin on Jan 4, 2010

God not only wants all men to be saved, but to also be surrendered to His will. Salvattion is but half of the equation. Unless the saint beoomes surrendered to the will of God, he cannot grow in grace, or be useful to an all-powerful God.

Surrendered Saints Text: Rom.12: 1-2 Intro: Stephen F. Olford has said, “What God wants today is new men, rather than new methods; surrendered people, rather than just saved people, for it is possible to be saved yet not surrendered.”(1) One doesn’t have to think about it too long to know that ...read more

Do Children Who Die Go To Heaven?

Contributed by John Gaston on Jun 16, 2016

The recent growth in Calvinistic doctrine & teaching on original sin has reignited the debate on whether children are guilty of sin & where they go if they die. This looks at that & gives 5 reasons why I believe they go to heaven.

Living Out Our Calling Series

Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Aug 12, 2018

The Lord through Paul calls us to get along, even when it's hard. He says to be humble, gentle, patient, and forbearing with our fellow believers. And through our efforts to do so, God will be glorified in the world. We pursue unity because God is one.

When Unity Becomes Toxic

Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Jun 9, 2019

The stories of the Tower of Babel and Pentecost teach us to: 1. Guard against prideful uniformity. 2. Cherish diversity as God's gift, and 3. Look to Christ as the source of our unity

Genesis 11:1-9 When Unity Becomes Toxic We tend to think of unity as a good thing. Military units aspire for unity. People in public office wish for it. Marriages hope for it. Churches aspire for it. Yet, sometimes supposed unity masks for uniformity, and can quickly slip into pride and ...read more

Lasting Comfort

Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Dec 10, 2017

We all want comfort. And God offers it to us as he did to the exiled Israelites. We can take comfort that our sin has been paid in full, that God's word outlasts our problems, and that God is coming again. Forgiven, forever, for sure!

Isaiah 40:1-11 Lasting Comfort Handel’s “Messiah” begins the first phrase of today’s passage: “‘Comfort ye, comfort ye my people,’ saith your God.” The theme of “comfort” sounds good, doesn’t it? Especially when you just can’t quite get comfortable. Bones ache, thoughts ruminate, neighbors ...read more
