    Preaching Of The Cross

    Contributed by Phillip Smith on May 24, 2024
     | 901 views

    The Apostle Paul said he was not an elegant speaker; he did not desire to use flattering words to draw attention to the cross. It is a shame too many preachers today feel they must use flattery or jokes to attract or keep an audience.

    I have heard many preachers over the span of my life. My father said they began attending church assemblies on Easter just a few days after my birth. Over sixty years have I been in an assembly hearing preaching. Think about the number of years and the many preachers you have heard. You have heard ...read more

    No subject is more important than the subject of human relationships. God wants us to be a part of His family, He wants us to live together as a family and to love each other as a true neighbor. In God’s family there should not be any enemies.

    The Gospel's Beautiful Fruit

    Contributed by Paul Dayao on Sep 15, 2025
     | 122 views

    We see in this sermon how the Apostle Paul celebrates the beautiful fruit of faith, love, and hope that is produced in our lives by the life-changing truth of the Gospel.

    As the Apostle Paul begins his letter to the church in Colossae, he doesn't start with a list of problems or a deep theological lecture. He starts with gratitude. He begins by saying, "Thank you." Paul is overflowing with thankfulness for these believers. But what is he thankful for? ...read more

    Our identity is revealed by what is seen in our lives. We must produce much good fruit in our lives, if we ever hope to make a difference in the lives of others. God's life in us can and will bring good life change.

    PRODUCING GOOD FRUIT Matthew 7:15-23 15 "Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves. 16 By their fruit you will recognize them.

    Isaiah Saw The Cross Series

     | 15,318 views

    A Christmas Sermon that points to the cross. The cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but it the main focus of God's message of salvation. But the cross is not a comforting symbol, so why would God use it as the symbol of our faith?

    OPEN: I once read about an evening chapel service at Christian summer camp. The preacher was forcefully telling the 4th & 5th graders how Jesus had been betrayed, arrested, beaten and ultimately died on the cross. His message was so powerful, that a hushed silence fell across the young ...read more

    Sergio’s enemy of the priest that turned him away became his inspiration to help others. Even the ones we see as representing Jesus can (at times) be an enemy. And today, our lesson is that The Cross Has Enemies.
