    Seize The Day / Strike While The Iron Is Hot

    Contributed by J Jeffrey Smead on Oct 25, 2021
    based on 3 ratings
     | 7,029 views

    There is an adage: "Strike while the iron is hot". When the time is right, you should act. You should seize the moment or you will lose your opportunity. We are called to be a witness and to bring others to Jesus. We need to strike when God gives us an opportunity.

    There is an adage ... that you may still hear at times even today: .... "Strike ... while the iron is hot". The saying is basically telling us .... that when the time is right... you should act... you should seize the moment ... or you will miss out ... on your opportunity. The adage ...read more

    Empowered To Deal With Problems (We Are Built For This)

    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Oct 26, 2021
     | 6,453 views

    In spiritual conflicts, even strong saints sometimes wax faint; then Satan attacks them furiously; but those that stand their ground and resist him shall be relieved and made more than conquerors. We are built for this!

    Introduction: Some commentators say that it is a Psalm belonging to the captivity, and upon that system it may be well interpreted. And yet others contend that it was written by David after he had been in danger of losing his life by the hand of a gigantic Philistine. David would have perished had ...read more

    Preach The Word

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Nov 1, 2021
     | 4,612 views

    Paul gives Timothy one of the most solemn injunctions in scripture: 'preach the word'. He is talking about preaching God's word to God's people rather than sharing the gospel with people outside the church. It's a solemn message to us too, to hold fast to God's word.

    INTRODUCTION (EARLIER IN THE SERVICE) Today is our last week on 2 Timothy. Over the past three weeks we’ve looked at chapters 1 to 3. Today, we move on to chapter 4 – the last chapter in 2 Timothy. I’m going to do a short recap on what we’ve looked at so far before we turn to chapter 4 later in ...read more

    Physical solutions don't solve spiritual problems. If God doesn't answer your prayer, could it be that he is waiting for you to be open to a deeper gift?

    I heard a marvelous story the other day... One day a wise man was out walking when it started to rain. He began to run, to try to stay ahead of the drops. An onlooker asked him, after the wise man had gotten to shelter, why he had run, it didn’t look wise to the observer. And the answer came, “I ...read more

     | 2,178 views

    Ephesians 4:5 says that there is “One Faith”. But there seems to be more. If someone says, “Have faith.” We need to ask, “Have faith in what?” We operate on faith every day. Just not always in God.

    Alba 4-23-2023 THERE IS ONE FAITH Ephesians 4:5 Some years ago in the cartoon “The Family Circus” two children had found their Easter baskets and are enjoying them. One asked, “Who colored all these eggs?” to which his sister replied, “The Easter bunny.” “Who gave us the jelly beans?” “The ...read more

    Honour God By Doing Good

     | 2,535 views

    The Pharisees wanted to use the Sabbath to trap Jesus and accuse Him of wrongdoing. Jesus went into the synagogue on the Sabbath to honour God and do good, which is the true purpose of the Sabbath. He obeys the will of God and does what is right despite the opposition.

    Matt 12:9-21 Honour God By Doing Good Matt 12:9-21 ESV Parallel Passages: Mark 3:1-5 and Luke 6:6-11 9He went on from there and entered their synagogue. 10And a man was there with a withered hand. And they asked him, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?”—so that they might ...read more

    Various churches have various teachings and various practices concerning baptism. But that does not mean that the Bible does not provide us with a good understanding of the will of God in the matter of baptism.

    Alba 5-7-2023 THERE IS ONE BAPTISM Ephesians 4:5 The story is told of a preacher who had just starting serving a new congregation. For eight Sundays in a row he preached about baptism. Finally, the chairman of the elders approached him and said, “Preacher, we get the point about baptism, and so ...read more

    It was on that Easter Sunday evening, long ago, that the disciples became certain of the fact that Jesus rose bodily from the dead. We need, also, to be sure of our faith as well.

    An Easter Evening, Long Ago Luke 24:33–43 NKJV So they rose up that very hour and returned to Jerusalem, and found the eleven and those who were with them gathered together, saying, “The Lord is risen indeed, and has appeared to Simon!” And they told about the things that had happened on the road, ...read more

    The second in a four part series on generous giving, "Lifestyle of Generosity," yip God owns it and how are we going to respond?

    Today I’d like to start with a question before answering it. Who owns what, what can we give to God? The answer is this and it may come as a bit of a surprise, God owns everything, it all belongs to Him, including our skills and our capabilities. As Christians people saved by the grace of God, we ...read more
