    In today’s Church there are so many bad seeds. Too many seeds are fake. The Lord tells us to beware of the fake seeds which the devil plants.

    In verse 37 of chapter 13 Jesus is speaking of the parable of the true and fake seeds. He tells us in verse 38 who plants which seed. In today’s Church, there are so many fake seeds, and we must be on the watch continually for the fake seeds. The Bible teaches us that we will know a believer by the ...read more

    What? “Good and bad alike” invited to the palace? The door is wide open and all of them are let inside: can you imagine what happened there, the horrendous stampede? Costly carpets, marble, gold, everything clean and suddenly dirty beggars and hungry peas

    “…Everyone, good and bad alike” Matthew 22: 1-14… Mathew 22: 8-10: Then he said to his servants, ’The wedding banquet is ready, but those I invited did not deserve to come.

    Often we complain about our forgetfulness but forgetting plays a major part in living a Christian life. Let’s see how.

    Is Legalism A Bad Word?

    Contributed by Patrick Nix on Jul 9, 2010
     | 2,444 views

    This message deals with the fact that God’s law (from Moses to Christ) is good and that its continued presence in church and culture is right, not wrong.

    Too many people today, even Christians, feel like the days of grace and spiritual liberty should erase the law of God. If any minister or church preaches or teaches the laws of God as good, they are labeled as old-fashioned, cult-like, or legalistic. Since when did ‘legalism’ (the idea of abiding ...read more

    Do you feel insignificant in your service to God? You may be more powerful than you thought. Or do you feel pretty secure? You may be more in need and weak than you thought. Take some advice from Philadelphia and Laodicea.

    Even as the Philadelphian church doesn’t receive even one rebuke - the church at Laodicea receives not one commendation - the contrast couldn’t be more stark - and that’s not the only contrast we’ll see as we compare these two churches. -The church at Philadelphia was small in appearance but ...read more
