    Through the visitation of the shepherds and magi we see that Christ was indeed good news of great joy for all people.

    The Christmas story is so familiar to us that we tend to view it through rose colored glasses. We tend to sanitize the scene to make it seem beautiful, pristine. Our nativities represent a postcard picture of Jesus in a pristine creche as he lies in a manger on a bed of hay or straw. It is ...read more

    As we continue studying James chapter1, we find the author shifting a bit from what God does not do to the things that God does do for us. We also will receive some strong instruction on what we are to do with these great gifts from above.

    Stewards Of The Goodness Of God James 1:17-27 Introduction: The Book of James is a very down-to-earth epistle. So far in our study we have seen some very practical advise on how to view trials and how to resist temptation. God has used this New Testament author to redirect our thinking. We ...read more

    We are living in a time when truth is being distorted, morality is under attack, and the very foundations of righteousness are being challenged. We are not called to sit on the sidelines. We are called to stand in the gap, to be the salt and light in a dark world, and to fight for righteousness.

    Many people practice counterfeiting without actually realizing what they are doing. A counterfeiter tries to make an imitation of something genuine to deceive, defraud or pretend something to be what it is not in reality. Ananias’s lie to the Holy Spirit

    How many of you feel you are an average/ordinary person in life? Maybe you have a good job, good family, but you would rate yourself as an average person. There are still unfulfilled promises in your life. Maybe you are a failure and good for nothing kind

    Often times we ask the question "Why to bad things happen to good People?" Is there any justice in the world? This passage tells us that God will put up with injustice only so long, and then will roar in perfect judgment.

    Good things happens to bad people, and the Gospel tells us that, but it is not fair, but what we don’t see, is God changing us for the better, refining us to do his will. It is all there in the bible.

     | 4,726 views

    Some people have a propensity to let bad things/words settle into their spirit. Be more resistant to negative words and more receptive to good or encouraging words. I include an experience I had with a demon possessed man.

    Why Did You Receive That Lie Into Your Spirit ? PPT 1 Series Title: Words This is the fifth week of our series on words, one more next week and we will wrap it up.

    Any ability or talent or appearance or power or fame we receive is entirely derivative-an expression of His goodness imputed to us for a short while. Satan wanted worship for himself. Saints seek to bring worship to their God.

    To the Jewish people, the Greatest men of the Old Testament were Moses, David, and Elijah, and they expected the Messiah to be like all three of these men in some ways. Jesus proved Himself greater than them all.
