    Freedom From Terror

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jan 6, 2021
     | 3,350 views

    We read of the demon-possessed man in Mark 5:1-20 and the "Legion" of evil spirits that had tormented him until he was freed and redeemed by the Lord Jesus Christ. One can only imagine the impact of his powerful testimony.

    A couple of years ago, I teamed up with a brother in Christ to rewrite a small book he put together that covered the occult, demonic activity, the rise of satanic worship, and an example in Scripture of what he referred to as a "zombie". His definition was based on passages in Matthew ...read more

    we tend to focus too much on the meek and mild Jesus and not enough on the glorified Christ with His sword on His side, marching on boldly because of truth and righteousness … mighty to save.

    You want to talk about power? In August of 1883, a volcano on the Island of Krakatoa erupted. The initial blast sent a cloud of gas and debris 15 miles into the atmosphere. On the morning of August 27th, four tremendous explosions were heard 3,000 miles away. That would be like us hearing Mount ...read more

    The Prison Of God's Promotion

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Apr 25, 2020
     | 6,114 views

    Your restriction, though onerous, may be God's means of bringing glory to His Name through promoting you. This becomes obvious through a study of Joseph's trials and promotion as God worked in his life.

    “Joseph’s master took him and put him into the prison, the place where the king’s prisoners were confined, and he was there in prison. But the LORD was with Joseph and showed him steadfast love and gave him favor in the sight of the keeper of the prison. And the keeper of the prison put Joseph in ...read more

    Jesus Defends His Divinity

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jan 27, 2022
     | 1,625 views

    Shortly after Jesus healed the crippled man at the pool of Bethsaida (John 5:1-15), He was confronted by the religious officials who wanted Him dead for saying that God was His Father, making Himself equal withe God. Jesus responded with facts to back up His claim.

    If there was an apt description of the attitude of the Pharisees towards the person and work of the Lord Jesus Christ (John 5:18), it is this, "There are none so blind as those who will not see". All throughout this account of the Lord's life and work and in the other Gospels as ...read more

    Tim Keller recently tweeted that “Apathy is a bigger problem than atheism for Christianity.” This sermon challenges God's people to fulfill the Great Commission given by the Risen King, Jesus. I would be delighted if you could rate this sermon and give brief feedback.

    INTRODUCTION (SECURE ATTENTION) & BACKGROUND OF THE PASSAGE: PRAY before starting the sermon. ILLUSTRATION: {According to a study conducted by LifeWay Research, 85% of all believers in the age group, 18-29 agree that they have a responsibility to share the gospel with unbelievers, 69% of those ...read more

    The birth of Jesus is a beautiful picture of God sending His Son to this earth to take on the form of man and become the sacrificial lamb that would satisfy the requirements of the law for all of eternity. But His birth was more than that!

    SUMMARY The birth of Jesus is a beautiful picture of God sending His Son to this earth to take on the form of man and become the sacrificial lamb that would satisfy the requirements of the law for all of eternity.

    To Whom Shall We Go?

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Feb 9, 2022
     | 2,314 views

    When Jesus spoke about the Bread of Life, His analogies troubled a lot of His hearers who found His teaching hard to understand (John 6:51-65) and ended up walking away from Him. In asking the disciples if they wanted to go away, Peter's response was the model of faith and assurance (vv.67-69).

    Jesus' teachings either inspired or infuriated those who heard Him. They continue to have the same effect on anyone who read His words as recorded in the Scriptures today and decides whether to surrender their lives to Him or reject His mercy and reap the eternal consequences. When He taught ...read more
