The Danger Of Doing What Is Right In Your Own Sight

Contributed by Melvin Maughmer, Jr. on Aug 6, 2023

The church has had far too much in common with the children of Israel back in the days when there was no king. We must cry out against the Spiritual, Moral, and Ethical Depravity that is being allowed to happen in the churches today.

The Danger of Doing What is Right in Your Own Eyes By Bishop Melvin L. Maughmer, Jr. PRAYER: SCRIPTURES: - Judges 17 – 21 Deuteronomy 12:8 says, “You shall not do as we are doing here today, everyone doing what is right in his own eyes”.

Qualifying The Called - Mark 3:6-19 Series

Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on Sep 4, 2023

God made a lot of promises about the restoration of Israel after the exile. But most of them didn't happen when the Jews came back from Babylon after 70 years. Jesus reveals why.

Introduction The Promised Kingdom Before we pick up where we left off in Mark 3, I need to remind you of something. Do you remember back in ch.1 when Mark told us the topic of all Jesus’ preaching? Jesus preached about the arrival of the kingdom. Mark 1:15 "The time has come," he said. ...read more

Worship The Lord

Contributed by Wayne Solomon on Jan 12, 2021

The horrifying scenes of the chaotic events at the US Capitol. These disturbing scenes are reminiscent of the heart-breaking words of the prophet Isaiah “Justice is turned back, And righteousness stands afar off; … truth is fallen in the street, …” (Isaiah 59:14).

I wish to give credit to Dr. S. M Lockridge for the rhetorical and literary devices as well as some basic ideas and content that I employ in this message. My message is titled: “The New Person (Man or Woman) for the Future will worship the Lord.” Our Text today is Matthew 4:8-10: “8 Again, the ...read more

Paraphernalia

Contributed by Craig Benner on Apr 30, 2015

Gizmos, gadgets, trappings, add-ons, etc. are really optional, but so many of us have come to think that we cannot live without them. The problem is that it becomes like the proverbial "straw that broke the camels' back".

Paraphernalia--furnishings and apparatuses, (add-ons) to enhance or give more options to a thing.

The Missing Family: The True Cost

Contributed by Terry Frazier on Sep 8, 2013

With the assault continuing on the nuclear, god ordained and created family, what is the cost to all of us as Americans? Almost all of the problems we have as a society can be traced back to the vanishing family especially the absentee fathers and mothers

Fact And Faith In Creative Tranquility Series

Contributed by Jack Perkins, D.min., Ladc, Csac, Cclc on Aug 7, 2021

The intensity of John’s writing increases as he attempts to call the church back to the non-negotiables of the Gospel. In this message attention is drawn to several things: the historicity of Jesus demonstrates God’s redemptive plan and calls for a response.

As John draws this short letter to a close, I am amazed by the manner in which his intensity builds. He increasingly, uses the phrase, we know. His task has been to call the church back to foundational things. The effectiveness of this series of sermons is based on our response to a very ...read more

Man Of God From Judah – Part 1

Contributed by Samuel M on Mar 7, 2025

In this season, God is raising and sending many men of God, armed with a word from Him and raw power and authority(to back it up), to expose the deception of all Jeroboam’s and cleanse God's altars.

In this generation, there is so much of strange fire and incense burning on God’s altars. Because of this strange fire, people are living strange lives. There is no fruit of God’s Holiness that leads to Holy living. A person in sin continue live in sin in spite of coming to the church regularly. ...read more
