Lessons Concerning Idolatry In Specific–eating Meats Offered To Idols

Contributed by Phillip Smith on Aug 14, 2024

Apostle Paul warns of fellowshiping with devils. Anything concerning idols and worship to idols is taking away our true worship to Almighty God. Flee from all forms of idolatry.

Nicodemus Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Dec 29, 2021

Nicodemus Is one of those interesting and important people we meet in the Bible. Jesus met with him and told him that he must be born again. However, He could not understand how someone could enter again into their mothers womb. He missed Jesus' point completely.

Harvest Is Bigger. God Does More.

Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Oct 1, 2022

At our harvest festival we usually think of food, crops. But we need to expand our concept of harvest. We also need to recognize just how much God is involved in providing for us.

Today is our Harvest Thanksgiving service. It’s a time to thank God for the harvest. But what exactly are we thanking God for? I want to do two things today. The first thing is to encourage us to see harvest as something bigger than what the combine harvester picks up. The second thing is to ...read more

Grace And Peace

Contributed by Jim Keegan on Jan 3, 2023

Paul begins every one of his thirteen letters with these words of blessing: “Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.” It’s arguably the greatest of all the biblical benedictions, but it goes mostly ignored.

"the Tale Of Two Mothers" Series

Contributed by Clarence Eisberg on Feb 2, 2023

No, it's not about the two mothers before King Solomon. It's the question "Who is Your Mother" ... Sarah or Hagar? Freedom in the promise of God's grace, or still living under the law given at Sinai. Figurative language used by Paul regarding two covenants.

Walk In The Spirit Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on Feb 9, 2023

We know that it is not by might, not by power, but by my Spirit says the Lord, but we set out on our walk with the Lord by sight and might. We need Romans 8 to keep us walking by faith. The right way to walk with God is by the Spirit of God.

We can put walking in the Spirit of God in a Shakespearian way. To Be (spiritually alive) Or Not to be (spiritually alive) That is the question. And what better way to propose an answer to that question with the chapter from Romans that tells us about the Spirit filled life. Romans Chapter 8 ...read more

Warning Of The False Teachers Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on Jan 21, 2024

There have been these lying false prophets around through the ages. This would be like in a critical war the soldiers can’t just fight the enemy who wear a different uniform, but within their ranks wearing their same uniform are those who would work to see the enemy win to make a profit.
