    Could We Turn Back Time…

    Contributed by John Gaston on Sep 12, 2016
    based on 1 rating
     | 13,593 views

    If we could really turn back the hands of time, would we? Why would we? Would it be ethical? Would it be wise to do so?Reasons people would like to go back in time, would it be good to change the past, and what the Bible says about our future.

    COULD WE TURN BACK TIME… 2 Kgs. 20:8-11 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: BLIND MAN SPINS DOG 1. There was a blind man at Wal-Mart the other day. He had a seeing-eye dog with him. 2.

    In a world that teaches us to return evil for evil, followers of Jesus must take a different path!

    INTRODUCTION • WTC Video • SLIDE #1 • The paradox of the world we live in is that from horrific tragedies such as 9/11, we can experience the worst that mankind has to offer to humanity, and we can all experience the goodness in people all during the same tragedy. • The ...read more

    What Do I Do With God’s Will Acts Series

    Contributed by James Lee on Dec 9, 2016
     | 4,242 views

    Last week we looked at understanding God’s will… “God’ what do You want me to do right here right now that will honor You?”This week, once I understand God’s will, what do do with it? Adapted from a series by Pastor Jerry Shirley.

    What do I do with God’s Will Acts 21: 14 & Romans 12:1-2 I pulled up this old Road Runner cartoon and watched as Wiley Coyote finally caught the road runner. He is standing there next to the giant sized road runner and holds up a sign that reads; “Okay, wise guys, you always wanted me ...read more

    A Call For Justice

    Contributed by Chris Appleby on Jan 16, 2017
    based on 3 ratings
     | 13,633 views

    Be careful what you ask for when you make a complaint to God. Sometimes God delays bringing justice to the world because the price is so high. Sometimes justice is brought about by unjust people. Be prepared to let God decide when's the right time to act.

    The cry for justice is a common occurrence in our world isn't it? Injustice takes place at all sorts of levels and we wonder, why does God allow it? It's like what we saw in Psalm 73 a few weeks ago. Why do the wicked prosper? Why do the powerful get away with taking advantage of the weak and ...read more

    Fasting

     | 9,894 views

    Fasting seems to be out of vogue today. What is Biblical fasting? Why should we fast? What should our attitude be when we fast? What should we expect?

    Before we go over our memory Scriptures I want to go over a true example of a mistake versus sin as an example of what the difference is and why the Lord looks upon the two differently. Last week we introduced a new memory Scripture and I told you that the new memory Scripture was printed in your ...read more

    Contributed by John Lowe on Sep 13, 2017
     | 10,536 views

    The parable of the Good Samaritan is probably the best-known story. I have read where some consider it the greatest story ever told.

    Judea Lesson: Lawyer Hears the Story of the Good Samaritan Luke 10:25-37 The lesson today is one of the parables that characterize the gospel of Luke. His gospel is full of the wonderful parables that Jesus used to make a point. Dr. Luke majors in parables just like Mark majors in miracles. Dr ...read more

    Accused Of Connection With Beelzebub Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Sep 21, 2017
     | 10,175 views

    Our Lord gives a simple explanation on the purpose of a candle. It is a light giver; its purpose is to transmit light. The resurrection of Christ is the light that this world needs.

    Judea Lesson: Accused of Connection with Beelzebub Luke 11:14-36 This incident is also recorded in Matthew 12:24-30 and Mark 3:22-30. From this account has come the notion of the so-called unpardonable sin. (Luke 11:14-15) And he was casting out a devil, and it was dumb. And it came to pass, ...read more

    In front of Mary was a tomb lifeless and foreboding, a scene of death. As she turned around a whole new scene developed around the character of the Gardener.

    We live in uncertain times – Droughts, bushfires and now a dreaded pestilence! • Isn’t it amazing how quickly our priorities change when events like this occur? • Instead of striving for that new job, that new house, that new car, that new outfit, suddenly simple things like toilet paper takes on ...read more

     | 7,789 views

    The midst of desperation, Satan entices men with evil desires, wrong motives, & doubt. This lesson teaches us that if we steadfastly resist his temptations by refusing to conform to them, and instead follow the directions of Scripture, the tempter will flee from us.

    Introduction: Overcoming the Temptation of Desperation is important because desperation will cause men to act out of character. The desperation of the pandemic and the fear it brings has caused many to hoard up supplies, buy additional guns and ammo, purchase additional alcohol and others ...read more

    The church in Corinth had a problem communicating with outsiders and visitors. The church still has that problem. This sermon looks at some of the difficulties that we have dealing with those who are unfamiliar with our faith.

    Opening and Introduction Tonight, we continue our sermon series on sharing our faith. In our text today, we heard about Christians in Corinth that struggled talking to visitors. They were having a hard time communicating the way they wanted to be heard. The gift of tongues was practiced, but ...read more

     | 7,731 views

    Jesus gave this parable to His disciples after the rich young ruler had come running to Jesus but had walked away. Look for the "go thy way" in the text--it may surprise you!

    Introduction: Just after the rich young ruler came running to Jesus, and walked away, Jesus gave this parable about workers in a vineyard. This was one of the last parables Jesus ever told. The immediate context stems from the disciples’ reaction to what Jesus said to the rich young ruler. Peter, ...read more

    Joel promises restoration through his Son and the sending of his Spirit. God promises to renew people who repent and turn to him.

    For all the talk about forging our own brave, new world, the evidence seems to the contrary. People are despondent and the world seems a mess. Every day the ideological battles play out in the public square are they are prising apart public opinion and fragmenting society. Climate change—gender ...read more

    People have many natures. Some are "sweet". Others are "mean". Some are passive. Some are "intense". Whatever your nature, it was given by God but shaped by the world. Is yours under God's control?

    GENESIS 1:26-27 - THEN GOD SAID, "LET US MAKE MAN IN OUR IMAGE, ACCORDING TO OUR LIKENESS; AND LET THEM RULE OVER THE FISH OF THE SEA AND OVER THE BIRDS OF THE SKY AND OVER THE CATTLE AND OVER ALL THE EARTH, AND OVER EVERY CREEPING THING THAT CREEPS ON THE EARTH."

    We learned them as children, but did we learn from them? There is truth wrapped up in these tales!

    I. Introduction We learned them as children. They are forever burned into our memory. However, just because we learned them doesn't mean we learned from them. Let's look at one of these fairytales we know so well and see if we can learn from it today. Today in honor of our graduates I want ...read more
