    based on 1 rating
     | 8,496 views

    The scriptures that we are examining today tell us that we do not battle against “flesh and blood”. This lets us know very clearly that we are not battling against people, governments, religious institutions, or political parties.

    Last week I spoke to you about our spiritual growth, and I showed you the four most common reasons why people stop growing spiritually. Additionally, week before last I spoke to you about the blessings of God, and I demonstrated how the spiritual blessings are far superior to any material thing ...read more

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Nov 15, 2016
    based on 3 ratings
     | 5,075 views

    The Nov. 8, 2016 election results represent an open door of opportunity for the American Church? What now? What will we do with this opportunity? What is at stake? This message is a prophetic call to seize the day!

    A monumental event occurred in America last Tuesday. The media has been talking about it ever since. Some people are so upset about it that they are rioting in the streets. Although there is some evidence that some of that was planned and people bussed in to make it happen. The point is that people ...read more

    Contributed by James Wallace on Nov 17, 2021
     | 2,157 views

    What is it that Christians are to be willing to die for? That's always a tough question, but Jesus answers it with no hesitation in John 15.

    Early this past week I had a both disturbing and thought-provoking conversation with a young lady. She told me about an experience she had had at a significant social event recently.

When the nuns realized the fire was blocking the exit, they took their habits off, tied them together to make a rope, and climbed out the window. 2. After they were safely on the ...read more

    True Biblical Prosperity

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Feb 9, 2022
    based on 3 ratings
     | 10,061 views

    Prosperity is not based on what we possess but on who we are inside, or who we are spiritually. Prosperity is not determined by a lack of hard times, but by how we handle tough situations; by whether or not we maintain our joy.

    I have entitled our message this evening “True Biblical Prosperity.” If there is “true” biblical teaching on prosperity, then there must also be “false” teaching. Therefore, I am going to briefly address the false teaching that’s out there, and then point out what the Bible defines as true ...read more

    Have you every done something undignified in the eyes of others in order to be in Jesus' presence and be a part of what He was doing? This is what this message is about - doing something extreme to be in Jesus' presence.

    A Welcome Change In Government Series

    Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on May 26, 2022
     | 2,141 views

    Christ is Lord even over those who seem to have all the influence today. They’re not running things, He is. They’re not shaping history, He is. None can override him, for Christ holds the keys. He will be forever secure on his throne!

    A change in government is always a big deal: there are new cabinet members to choose, new policies to begin implementing, new office spaces to move into. The old is quickly shuffled to one side, and the new is put into the spotlight. In our text today, we see something similar. Isaiah 22 describes ...read more
