    based on 4 ratings
     | 13,978 views

    What does it mean for Jesus to be "the door?" And why should that matter to us?

    There’s a cute little children’s song about Jesus that goes this way: “One Door, and only one, and yet its sides are two, inside and outside, on which side are you? One Door, and only one, and yet its sides are two, I want the inside - on which side are you? “One Lord, and only one and yet the ...read more

    Viruses infect PCs (Personal Computers), and sins infect PLs (our Personal Lives). Facebook has become one place where we can see certain viruses/sins infect the language and attitudes of those who use that site.

    OPEN: A few yrs ago, a computer specialist by the name of Didier Stevens came up with a humorous ad campaign he placed on Google (a popular internet site).

    Does the Lord have the right to call anyone into Christian minsitry in any position if it is His will to do so regardless of gender? This sermon is intended to be an overview of the Lord doing just that throughout the Bible.

    If you would, please stand as we say together our memory Scripture for this quarter: Matthew 6:31-33 “Do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. “But ...read more

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Feb 27, 2026
     | 63 views

    Superficial knowledge of the scriptures allows error on a large scale. The words of false teachers are false, but the false becomes true to those who are deceived. Error thrives in untaught conditions just as disease thrives in unsanitary environments. Peter opens up on these savage wolves.

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on May 9, 2023
     | 1,984 views

    Anxiety and concern afflict us and cause worry. God does not want that for us. Peter speaks of casting our cares on the Lord, also the Psalms, and the Lord on earth spoke on the same matter in the Sermon on the Mount. Humbling ourselves under the MIGHTY hand of God is a necessity.

    MESSAGE IN 1PETER – NUMBER 5 – HUMBLE YOURSELVES AND THE MONSTER OF ANXIETY – 1Peter 5:6-7 [A]. INTRODUCTION – STRENGTH AND DEPENDENCE The strength of youth is most evident when the body is at the prime of its physical development.

    When we fail, when we deny, when we fall short, Jesus will still prepare for us a table in the midst of our enemies.

    Following the Shepherd Psalms 23 Ps 23… The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. 2 He makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters. 3 He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness For His name’s sake. 4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of ...read more

    based on 9 ratings
     | 17,561 views

    Do we trust God enough to honor and obey those in authority over us? It's easy to do that when they're good leaders... but what about when they're driven by selfishness and love of power?

    OPEN: At a hospital in Nashville, Tennessee, on Election Day, nurses went in to the room of a 72-yr-old woman to prepare her for open-heart surgery, only to find that the woman wasn’t there. Instead they found a note which read, “Gone to vote, back in 30 minutes.” An election ...read more

    Where's The Army?

    Contributed by Larry Elder on Jul 14, 2003
    based on 34 ratings
     | 5,185 views

    Today the church, the Christian, has changed God’s job description and prefers hiding within the four walls of the church, sitting in a pew, limiting God’s light. Believes for the most part have small visions centered on self-motivation

    Where’s The Army? 2 Tim 2:3-5 Endure suffering along with me, as a good soldier of Christ Jesus. And as Christ’s soldier, do not let yourself become tied up in the affairs of this life, for then you cannot satisfy the one who has enlisted you in his army.

     | 2,299 views

    The call of Jeremiah has challenges for us and we look at them. Abortion and the unborn are examined from God's perspective. How many sit down and laboriously draft and redraft some message straining to “polish” some sermon. Just speak what God has given!
