How to degrade yourself

1. Be your own master! Own yourself! Whoever came up with that word accountability? Everyone and everything should account to you but you don’t report to anyone after all, what they know. Think of the possibilities. Just meditate deeply, or if that’s too much work see a shrink or some eastern new ...read more

Don't Let The Devil Get A Foothold

Contributed by Ian Bullock on Aug 4, 2021

This sermon explores how rot can get in, and how we should try to deal with it in a scriptural way, instead of letting it eat away and cause more damage.

Greatness In Serving Series

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on May 6, 2021

The disciples had to learn, often the hard way, that following Jesus does not mean favoritism from Him. They had to learn that service towards God and others is to be done with a loving, gracious attitude and not with an ego.

You have to admit that James and John thought a lot about their ability to serve the Lord Jesus. They wanted places of honor in the Kingdom of God without coming to grips with the hardship that follows everyone who gives their lives to Him. The disciples and all who would surrender their lives ...read more

The Aspects Of Authentic Salvation

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Oct 8, 2023

Salvation does not originate with us. We cannot redeem ourselves because our sinful nature does not want to acknowledge that God alone is the Author and Provider of our salvation as written in the Scriptures.

The Scriptures make it abundantly clear that we are given a set amount of time on this earth, and then face the judgment (Hebrews 9:27). No one, from prince to pauper, will be exempt. We will all give an account of our lives to the Lord Jesus Christ (Luke 12:13-21; John 5:28-29; 1 Corinthians ...read more

The Wedding Crasher

Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Jun 20, 2018

Friend you can wear no other garment to the wedding except the righteousness of Jesus. Confess your sins and be baptised then profess your faith and seek a closer walk with the Lord. Those not clothed in wedding garments are cast out into outer darkness.

What Are The Ingredients For Revival?

Contributed by Chris Swanson on Feb 1, 2023

God’s chosen people are to be His representatives on Earth. But they often stumble blindly after idols when they forget the truth and their calling. Unfortunately, many Christians of today frequently resemble the “Chosen” in the Bible.

Solomon had approached God to plan for the people of Israel for when they had sinned. God replied with four conditions for pardoning: 1. Humble yourself by conceding your wrongdoings. 2. Pray to God requesting pardoning and forgiveness. 3. Look for God constantly. 4. Abandon corrupt conduct and ...read more

Commissioned

Contributed by Chris Swanson on Nov 30, 2022

Isaiah's perspective on God in the initial four verses gives us a feeling of God's significance, power, and mystery. Isaiah's case of perceiving his sin before God urges us to admit our own wrongdoings.

The image of absolution, that Isaiah gives, advises us that we are pardoned as well. At the point when we perceive how incredible God is, how guilty we are, and the degree of His absolution, we get the strength to accomplish His work. How does our idea of the significance of God match ...read more
