    A Call To Reclaim Education

    Contributed by Ken Mckinley on Aug 10, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 856 views

    Christians must step up and reclaim the education of our children. The world has indoctrinated them for far too long, and if there is to be a hope to reverse our nations course, it will take a generation of work. A large part of that work must be in the realm of education.

    Short Sermon on Education IF you read our church newsletter, then you know I do a lot of thinking about education. And the reason for that is because God’s Word says a lot about education. The education of children, and the education of His people – the Church. And historically speaking - - - ...read more

    In recent days, America has been shaken by the assassination of Christian leader Charlie Kirk. Following Jesus publicly will invite spiritual resistance, but the Church must face hostility with truth, holiness, and courageous love.

    Contend For The Faith

    Contributed by Paul Robinson on Sep 16, 2022
     | 3,003 views

    When you hear the word “contend,” what comes to mind? An ugly fight? A heated argument? These are negative connotations, but contending can also be a very good thing, and that’s exactly what we see in the book of Jude.

    According to verse 3, Jude’s purpose for writing this letter was to encourage these Christians to contend for the faith. But what does that mean? Why should we contend, is it really necessary? And how do we do that? ANALYSIS OF VERSE 3 Diligence (Gr. spoude)—to interest one’s self most earnestly ...read more

    The Bible records seven last statements that Christ uttered while he was on the cross. While Christ was on the cross, he was doing his greatest work; he was uttering some of his greatest words.

    Last Words. Not too long after my twenty-second birthday, I arrived in Vietnam, a machine-gunner in the 199th Light Infantry Brigade. My first combat was only a few days later. Combat tends to grow one up quickly. The man to my right, whose shoulder was only a foot away from my own, got a face ...read more

    In John 16, Jesus explains to the disciples that they will face sorrow, especially as he will be leaving them. But he encourages them that in the future, this sorrow will be turned to Joy when they see him again.

    Yes God is a loviing God who sent His only begotten Son to die on the cross to atone for the sines of the world, but this does not, cannot, mean that everyone is saved. Universalism is a nice thought, but nor biblical. The worst sinner can become a saint,

    Luke 16: 19-31 Sermon: The reality of Hell Most preachers do not like giving sermons on hell, preferring to use terms such as “lost eternity”. Most pastors don't want to be regarded as a "fire and brimstone" preacher, yet we do no one a favour by avoiding this unpleasant subject. ...read more
