     | 6,101 views

    Our Advent Sermon Series was "David's Royal Branch," focusing on the coming Christ and His connections to David. This is the second sermon of that series, looking at Jesus' lineage. He is, indeed, David's son--but even greater, He is the Son of God!

    “What do you think about the Christ? Whose son is he?” With these two questions, Jesus turns the tables on the Pharisees once again. They, along with the Sadducees and Herodians had put Jesus to the test several times in a row. They asked Him unimaginable, theoretical, philosophical, theological ...read more

    Celebration in heaven, Satan and his demonic forces defeated and expelled from heaven

    Faith And Love James' Style

    Contributed by Greg Nance on Mar 7, 2015
     | 3,372 views

    James has a lot to tell us about faith. His simple, straight forward message challenges us and instructs us in character building God's way. This is a summary of some of the things James tells us as we prepare to enter chapter three.

    The theme of James is captured in the first chapter, verses James 1:2-4 (read). He then discusses trials and faith throughout the rest of the letter. Some of these trials come from without, but some are as near as the members of our own bodies, i.e. our tongues. Someone pointed out that James ...read more
