    Essentials Of Faith

    In this exposition of Hebrews 11:1-6, the nature of faith (v. 1), understanding by faith (v. 3), and essentials of faith (v. 6) are explored. "Without faith it is impossible to please God." Therefore, the subject is of supreme importance.

    We take our text today from Hebrews 11: the great faith chapter. We will begin by reading the first six verses. “Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. 2 For by it the elders obtained a good testimony. 3 By faith we understand that the worlds were framed by ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 6,602 views

    After all is said and done, we need to be living our lives like Jesus lived. We need to awaken our hearts by filling our hearts with the things of God, and living the life modeled by Jesus.

    Many in our country today are claiming to be “woke”. But as we have seen over the past few weeks the church needs to become “woke” — the church needs to wake up, stand up, and defend all that is right, all that is true, all that is holy. Evil is all around. Sin is running rampant. It’s time ...read more

    Not only is Psalm 139 important theologically, but it is a good model for learning what we need to do in beginning to pray successfully by praying the Scriptures themselves.

    In the “Dark Ages” of television, before there were hundreds of cable channels with nothing to watch and before there was even color broadcasting, much less HDTV, the news division of one of the networks (CBS) had a show entitled, “You Are There!” The idea of the show was to take you back and allow ...read more
