    Shall We Dance?

    Contributed by Ervin Kimrey on Jan 18, 2010
     | 4,668 views

    In being saved from sin and on our way to heaven we have reason to celebrate. Others who do not know the freedom in Christ often don't understand Christian Liberty.

    SHALL WE DANCE ? 2 Samuel 6: 16-23 Why in the world would they get so excited about it? Because they're free. When you obey, you're free. When you disobey, you're in bondage. All around us we see individuals in bondage because they're in sin, and all they talk about is freedom. They're not free. ...read more

    Give up your dreams of a “pure church”. The reality is there will always be a mixture of true followers and hypocrites. Make sure you’re ready for the judgment day and get on with the work of being fruitful!

    INTRO: I’ve got a confession to make. I love Roundup. I love the feeling of just going around, spraying a little bit of poison and then in a few days seeing those weeds shrivel up and die! It’s so much more fun than actually pulling the weeds up! But, the problem with Roundup is it can be ...read more

    This is the second sermon in a series of four on Christian marriage which deals with Getting at the Heart of God’s Plan, Being Mutually Submissive as well as Leaving and Cleaving - from an “exchanged life’ perspective.”

    It doesn’t take a social scientist to figure out that marriage today is in trouble. Adultery, divorce, depression, alcoholism, work-alcoholism, and a host of other “isms” have reached epidemic proportions. It may have been Benjamin Franklin who said, “A disease is never brought under control ...read more

    “Being a neighbor is not necessarily defined by seeking out those who need help, but rather it is becoming a person who is able to reach beyond themselves to help someone get back on track.”

    “The Unlikely Hero” I want to share a story about a man by the name of Karl Marx. (Has anyone here ever heard of him?) He is known as the father of Communism. He had one agenda and one agenda only and that was for communism to replace capitalism. Let me explain. Today, in ...read more

    A message thinking about life, death, resurrection & ghosts because that lie the devil has used about Jesus not being really alive but just a ghost must be dispatched back to hell.

    Ghosts Luke 24:36b-48 Perhaps because we hear this Easter story so often we loose some of the power. We loose something of the sense of how fantastic & ridiculous an idea this truly is - Jesus dead now alive. How can that be because dead people stay dead, we all know that to be true don’t ...read more

    Though Joseph was betrayed and the dream of Joseph was interrupted with him being sold to slavery it was not the timing of God to let this dream come to past in his infancy but rather his matured age of 30.

    A Dream Interrupted Joseph was the eleventh son of Jacob and the first son of Rachael and was his father’s favorite son, However, he was hated by his jealous brothers, because he was a dreamer and he had special care and attention given unto him. It is hard to understand why they were so ...read more
