    How can we position ourselves to be used by God in the gifts of the Spirit? Seven keys for making ourselves available to God for his supernatural operation through our lives are discussed.

We have gotten into a lot of detail in 1 Corinthians 14, so let me go back to the beginning of Paul’s teaching on the subject. 1 Corinthians 12:1: “Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I do not want you to be ...read more

    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Dec 10, 2024
     | 468 views

    Advent, the season of anticipation reminds us of the hope we have in God, the peace we have with God and the love we have that always seeking and pursuing us for our good and for God’s glory. We find a compelling picture of God’s love in the book of Hosea.

    Sermon - The Ultimate Example of God’s Love Scriptures: John 3:16-17 “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

    In this sermon we discover one of, if not the number one way the enemy operates to destroy our lives, and rob us of our crowns.

    These two following verses are the source for the title of this message today. Matthew 24:4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. Revelation 3:11 Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown. Now please go with me to 1 ...read more

    Songs We Sing: "must Jesus Bear The Cross Alone" Series

    Contributed by Troy Borst on Mar 5, 2025
     | 148 views

    The song we will focus on is the worst hymn that has ever been produced (IN MY OPINION). Why is this hymn the worst? This hymn is the worst because it teaches incorrect theology about Jesus Christ.

    SONGS WE SING: ‘MUST JESUS BEAR THE CROSS ALONE?’ 1 Peter 2:21-25, Matthew 16:24-25 #BadBadHymn SING ‘MUST JESUS BEAR THE CROSS ALONE’ INTRODUCTION This morning we are continuing a sermon series called: “The Songs We Sing.” Part of worshipping God is singing.

    In Hebrews 12 we get to see God’s discipline policy. What does God say to us about how He disciplines us?

    In life, it is easy to drift. A few years ago, Tara Myers and her son Brennan went to the beach and thought it would be fun to take their “swan raft” along for a little ride on the ocean waves off of Ana Maria Island.

    After Jesus painted the portrait of a servant in the beatitudes, He illustrated the influence of a servant in the properties of salt and light. The world needs us to be salt and light and we can be that through our service.

    Does God Exist? - A Look At Atheism, Agnosticism, And Theism

    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Jan 31, 2024
    based on 4 ratings
     | 897 views

    The question 'Does God exist?' has only two possible direct answers: Either 'yes,' which is theism, and 'no,' which is atheism.

    The agnostic responds with 'I don't know' and 'no one knows,' which is actually an affirmative answer that has never been established, so the question is meaningless because they are not direct answers. (See ...read more
