    Did Judas Do Any Good? Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Apr 5, 2023
     | 1,075 views

    Judas got nothing good–not pleasure or honor or power. He ended up being the only person in the Bible whom God judged as being better off never being born.

    Wednesday of Holy Week 2023 It does not seem terribly fair what happened to poor Kerioth-born Judas, as Matthew records it. He sells out Jesus for what in today’s currency would be about $260. Then, seeing Jesus condemned to death, he changes his mind and attempts to return the money to the ...read more

    This message is from 2 Samuel 6 where David tries to bring the Ark of the Covenant to Jerusalem. The day ends in disaster and David is left feeling angry, afraid and withdraws from the Presence of God. In life God will not always meet our expectations of

    Intro A lot of us are focused on the future right now.

    The Fire And The Calf

    God told Joshua the reason He would not answer their prayers or protect Israel was because "there is sin in the camp". I believe that is true for the church and Christians today. If you're afraid to preach sin... don't look at this one.

    Sin in the Camp Joshua 7 Today I want to talk to you about something very serious… sin in the camp. I believe this is one of the biggest problems in the world today... sin in the camp.... Sin in God’s people I think most Christians do not take this very seriously because they say to ...read more

    John’s Question

    Contributed by Dan Finch on Dec 25, 2010
     | 10,440 views

    Everybody wants to be a winner and be on the winning team. John the baptizer was afraid that he was mistaken about Jesus because he saw him headed toward a cross. We are still a lot like John. Following Jesus is often not about winning.

    It’s hard to be sure when you are in pain It’s easy to be confident when things are going well – when you are young, strong – LeBron James for instance, went on TV and had a whole show just to say that he was going to the Miami Heat. Look at me, look how confident I am. This is going to be great. ...read more

    Intro: Everyone knows what it’s like to be afraid. Our fears can be paralyzing…. It is one of the weapons used by Satan for us to not continue in our Christian life. It is like a big GIANTS in our lives that hinder us to continue.

    FACING THE GIANTS Verse: Selected Intro: Everyone knows what it’s like to be afraid. We all have things that we’re afraid of. A fear I think we have all had at one time or another.

    We will be studying a topic that some have twisted so much that many are so afraid to go out on a limb they dare not even climb a tree. This topic: The Baptism of The Holy Spirit. Let’s study just the facts on this controversial topic.

    Introduction OK, so last week we spoke of the ministry of the Holy Spirit in the life of the Believer, but you noticed some things were missing. There was no mention of the gifts of the Spirit, no mention of the fruit of the Spirit, so what gives? Doesn’t God want us to have these? Of course ...read more
