Sermons on Breaking Free From Python:

John's World

Contributed by Bob Faulkner on Jun 15, 2015

Was John only the apostle of love, or also the prophet of judgment? Was he "free will" as in John 3:16, or "predestination" as in John 6:37. To ask these things about him is really to ask them about the One he quoted. Jesus does not fit into our boxes...

John’s World… Did John contradict John in regards to the doctrines of grace? Whose side was he on, after all? It wasn’t just Paul! There’s a real opposition in the evangelical church to what they call “Calvinism”, but what Spurgeon called “Bible.” ...read more

God Is In Control! But What About Your Part?

Contributed by Kelvin Mckisic on Jun 25, 2023

God is control of all things, but you do have a part to play in it all. God wants us to submit to authorities, but are you following God's will by voting for the person who should be in office?

God is in Control! But What About Your Part? Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God. Therefore whoever resists the authority resists the ordinance of God, and those who resist will bring ...read more

What About Human Freedom? Series

Contributed by Ian Du Pisanie on Apr 2, 2012

If God ordains whatsoever shall come to pass, what role do humans play in the greater picture? Are we merely puppets on a string or is the some sort of freedom we have to choose God?

What about human freedom?

No Regret That Day

Contributed by Pastor Renji George on May 30, 2024

I fear in my heart all the time whether my service for the Lord turn out to be dead works that Day! Walking before the Lord in humility everyday will preserve me from the danger of being pride.

Contributed by Jenny Franklin on Dec 21, 2022

Call It Anything But Boring

Contributed by Howard Strickland on Jan 18, 2012

Their white garments, and golden crowns seem to indicate that these 24 represent the redeemed. The question is which redeemed? Not Israel because they aren’t saved until near the end. Not the unsaved because that happens after the 7 year tribulation.
