    Genesis 18:1 And the LORD appeared unto him in the plains of Mamre: and he sat in the tent door in the heat of the day; 2 And he lift up his eyes and looked and, lo, three men stood by him: and when he saw them, he ran to meet them from the tent door, and bowed himself toward the ground, 3 And ...read more

    God is the vision giver, but we have to be the vision receivers!

    God’s precious promises will not fall on us automatically. We have to know the will of God before we can even ask for them. We have to ask in line with His will. God’s Word is God’s will...

    -- New Revised Standard Hebrews 10:35 Do not, therefore, abandon that confidence of yours; it brings a great reward. In the 1st lesson we talked about what confidence was, and the commands that God gave us in His Word in order to walk in confidence before Him. Confidence is another way of ...read more

    See what it means to receive a spiritual wake up call from Jesus.

    One of the tragic moments in American history occurred on December 7, 1941. Pearl Harbor was attacked. The attack took place on a sunny Sunday morning. Over 2400 lives were lost and five out of eight battleships were sunk. The sad part of that whole event was the fact that we had advance warning ...read more

    Understanding "The Flesh" Series

    Contributed by Bruce Willis on Dec 29, 2006
    based on 10 ratings
     | 6,100 views

    This is the first sermon in a series of two from the perspective of The Exchanged Life which seeks to help the believer to understand what the programmed flesh is.

    I often hear believers comment as they’re attempting to live the Christian life, “My life seemed a lot easier when I wasn’t a Christian.” Or, they’ll say, “Why am I having such a hard time, when those who don’t live for Christ seem to be so ‘happy go lucky’, they seem to live without a care in the ...read more

    Abiding In Perfect Love

    Contributed by Glenn Bleakney on Jun 14, 2008
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,734 views

    It is the desire of the heavenly Father for His people always to experience the full inheritance of His covenant love and mercy. The Apostle John calls such a place of attainment in God “perfect love”.

    It is truly amazing to think of the mercy and forbearance that God bestows upon sinners. Undoubtedly, the Lord has the power to cut off our very existence. The Scripture affirms, “Thou hidest thy face, they are troubled; thou takest away their breath, they die, and return to their dust” (Psalm ...read more

    The Parable Treasure And Pearl / I Surrender All

    Contributed by J Jeffrey Smead on Jul 28, 2011
    based on 409 ratings
     | 82,380 views

    What, then, do the parables teach? Church fathers such as Irenaeus and Augustine identified the treasure and the Pearl with Christ. The recent convert to Christianity says exactly the same thing: "I found Christ." Yes, it seems like we did find Christ.

    In his series of seven parables in Chapter 13, Matthew is quite elaborate ....... on the first two, providing an interpretation for each. The other five are shorter and more pointed in content. The parables of the hidden treasure and of the pearl consists of two sentences each. And in the ...read more
