     | 1,677 views

    IF? THEN? Why do we hear so little about repentance in the church world today? The Bible calls for real Godly sorrow and a broken and contrite heart. CAN WE HEAR THE CALL TO REAL REPENTANCE FROM GOD'S WORD?

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 25, 2024
     | 300 views

    Many believers have heard the call of God, have sensed His grace on the unique giftings and talents in their lives.

    INTRODUCTION: The church's potency and influence is contingent on the saints of God operating in the full potential of the giftings and talents God has endowed them with. By the same token, the church will remain weak and ineffective if God's people are discouraged, unintentional and poor ...read more

    A sermon focusing on the elder son in the prodigal son parable.

    “Two Lost Sons” Luke 15:1-3, 11b-32 This is probably one of the best known parables of Jesus in the Bible.

    Being lost creates a strong sense of anxiety and often fear.

    Weekend Message/Devotion March 31, 2019 Luke 15:1-3, 11-32 Finding a Way Home! Most of us are very familiar with today’s gospel reading which is inclusive of the parable of The Prodigal Son.

    It is amazing what man can do and what man has done. But there are many things beyuond the realm of our capability which are easy for God to do. What we cannot do, God Can.

    Jesus rides into Jerusalem on a beast of burden to be our beast of burden.

    4.5.20 Philippians 2:5-8 Indeed, let this attitude be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus.

    If we are going to be a caring church, one of the very first things we must do is to care about those who are without Jesus Christ, those who are lost. We need to develop a heart for the lost like Paul’s heart.

     | 8,257 views

    There's a difference between pity & compassion. Pity is a mere emotion; compassion compels action. God wants us to exhibit this true compassion, the same kind He had for a lost and dying world, which compels us to DO something for the lost.
