    The Reason We Submit To Authority Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Dec 15, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,920 views

    Obedience that originates from this kind of fear of penalty is not true obedience. That is the reason why the apostle Paul exhorts us in Romans 13:5, that our obedience must stem from our conscience and not because we fear the consequences of disobedience.

    The Reason We Submit to Authority In Romans 13:5 we read, “We must obey therefore, not only in order to escape punishment, but also for conscience' sake.” (WNT) All of us are familiar with the principle that if we don’t obey rules and submit to those in authority, we will get punished, and ...read more

    Sermon # 48 - Words Of Authority Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Aug 29, 2025
     | 217 views

    God has bestowed authority to human beings whom He has created in His own image. This authority was exercised by many men of God all through the bible. However, Jesus was the perfect one whose authority astounded everyone who met or heard Him.

    Today’s meditation is based on Numbers 22:6, “They outnumber us, so please come and put a curse on them for me. Then perhaps we will be able to defeat them and drive them out of the land. I know that when you pronounce a blessing, people are blessed, and when you pronounce a curse, they are placed ...read more

    The masterful answers of the Master.

    WHO GAVE YOU THIS AUTHORITY? Luke 20:1-26. 1. The authority of Jesus questioned (Luke 20:1-8).

    Living under God’s authority means surrendering personal will to His divine rule,

    INTRODUCTION Living under God’s authority means surrendering personal will to His divine rule, resulting in a life of purpose, power, and protection. Authority is not about control—it is about covering. Many believers want • power without submission, • blessing without alignment, and • victory ...read more

    The 21st-century world is louder than ever. And Scripture commands us not simply to run, not merely to endure, but to fix our eyes on Jesus.

    Looking to Jesus: The Author and Perfecter of Our Faith- Hebrews 12:2 Introduction: Fix Your Eyes Imagine a runner in the Olympic marathon. The stadium roars, the cameras flash, but the runner hears none of it. His eyes are fixed, his focus unbroken. Ahead lies the finish line—and glory. One ...read more

     | 7,843 views

    Peter reminds us that we can trust scripture because: 1) It was written by eyewitnesses in risk of their lives. 2) It reflects God’s single message through a variety of human writers. And 3) It will change your life as you read it.

    2 Peter 1:16-21 Why You Can Trust Scripture Our church gave some money the last couple of years for our VA’s Reboot Combat Recovery groups. Reboot is a Christian-based approach to healing from the spiritual wounding of war. Groups are held in the evening, and Veterans may bring a spouse or other ...read more

    This is the 4th in a series of 8 on discipleship.

    The Fact Of Scripture Over The Words Of Fools

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on May 23, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,333 views

    In 1910, evangelist Dr. R.A. Torrey presented a series of revival messages, that are still powerful in their ability to make people think about their souls and the need for a Savior. This is a revision of one of those messages given before an audience in Edwardian England, still relevant today.

    The Scriptures do not soothe ruffled feelings nor do they strengthen egos devoid of belief in or trust of God. An atheist is, in God's eyes, a FOOL (Psalm 14:1). Human pride and self-centeredness are roadblocks we set up with help from the enemy of our souls to deafen and blind ourselves to ...read more
