     | 1,529 views

    The sensitive subject of indebtedness is addressed in the message, pointing to the universal debt that rests upon each Christian.

    “Owe no one anything, except to love each other, for the one who loves another has fulfilled the law.” [1] Living beyond one’s means has become de rigueur in the contemporary world. It is virtually impossible to imagine the average family in this day living within their means—living without ...read more

    Becoming A Christian Philosopher

    Contributed by Don Campbell on May 15, 2023
     | 1,090 views

    The word “philosophy” means a love of wisdom. Paul said, "Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ” (Col 2:8). There must be two kinds of philosophers.

    BECOMING A CHRISTIAN PHILOSOPHER Practical Principles for Living or Detached Musings? INTRODUCTION A. In 1972 I took Introduction to Philosophy at Shawnee College, Ullin, Illinois under an old professor named Dr. Pepper, who looked like Colonel Sanders. 1. I learned that the word philosophy ...read more

    Legal Counsel For Christians Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Aug 4, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,042 views

    Jesus provides counsel on domestic disputes, sex crimes, adultery and divorce; and He even says something that can be applied to swearing on the Bible in a court of law. Jesus, being part of the court of heaven, knows about legal matters!

    I have entitled our message for this morning, “Legal Counsel for Christians.” You may not realize it, but the Bible is full of courtroom imagery. The most noteworthy example is the great white throne of judgement seen in the book of Revelation (20:11-15). Did you know that Jesus will be there ...read more

    The Christian Lifestyle Of Worship Series

    Contributed by Dr. Bradford Reaves on Jul 1, 2022
     | 1,683 views

    Nothing we do is more serious and important than worship. The basis of our worship, and the only basis of our worship, is to be the person, nature, and character of God through His son, Jesus Christ.

    Dr. Bradford Reaves Crossway Christian Fellowship Hagerstown, MD www.mycrossway.org Last week we spend some time covering this portion of Scripture in Ephesians Chapter 5 where Paul is writing about the spiritual walk of the believer.

    The Double Minded Christian

    Contributed by Wilson Oshorakpor on Jul 12, 2022
     | 6,583 views

    A double minded Christian is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. Their loyalty is divided between God and the world. They live more by sight and less by faith. They are neither hot or cold, just lukewarm.

    TEXT: James 1:5-8 (NLT) "If you need wisdom, ask our generous God, and he will give it to you. He will not rebuke you for asking. But when you ask him, be sure that your faith is in God alone. Do not waver, for a person with divided loyalty is as unsettled as a wave of the sea that is blown ...read more

     | 1,827 views

    The modern view of marriage is the idea that you are going to find “the one” who is going to fulfill all your dreams. Nothing could be further from the truth.

    Dr. Bradford Reaves Crossway Christian Fellowship Hagerstown, MD www.mycrossway.org https://mycrossway.churchcenter.com/episodes/140695 According to Pew Research, the number of people who have never been married is rising.

    Defeated Christians have forgotten who they are. How easy it is to forget what Jesus Christ has done and who we are in Him, especially when we fail.
