    In this day we live in, there is certain to be a continuing collapse of moral standards, and the multiplying of numbers in the false religions of this world.

    DON’T WORRY! There are a great many things to worry about in today’s world. Our unstable economy, tightening finances, child abductions, and the war on terrorism are all things that jump out at us from the headlines. Fear and depression are widespread. Make no mistake, we live in ...read more

    What America needs is not more religion, but servants of the Most High God who will serve, proclaim and energize the Church.

    Serving Churches= Growing Churches A. What does the church really need to come alive today? Sometime ago Darrell Scott got the privilege to address the House Judiciary subcommittee. His daughter Rachel Joy Scott was one of victims of the Columbine High School massacre. Here is a synopsis of ...read more

    Though freedom is often regarded as throwing off the restraints of religion, true freedom comes from obeying the scriptures.

    SET FREE PSALM 119:32,45 JANUARY 14, 2007 I read some real life warnings on products. The first one was found on a snow sled. It warned: “Beware: sled may develop high speed under certain snow conditions.” I wonder if that warning was for ignorant Floridian kids who have never seen snow. I mean ...read more

    Does Jesus Christ make any difference in the way Christians live? If the answer is no, Christianity is a false religion.

    LIVING IN RIGHT RELATIONSHIP 1 Peter 2:17 INTRO: Does Jesus Christ make any difference in the way Christians live? If the answer is no, Christianity is a false religion. But if the answer is yes, other questions have to be asked. Does Jesus make a little or a lot of difference in how we live? ...read more

    If our religion is going to be more than just performing of obligations we have to ask some hard questions.

    "There will be signs in the sun, the moon, and the stars, and on the earth distress among nations confused by the roaring of the sea and the waves. People will faint from fear and foreboding of what is coming upon the world, for the powers of the heavens will be shaken. Then they will see ...read more

    Christianity is not a religion of information, but rather about a relationship with Jesus Christ that results in transformation. God wants us to be transformers!

    TRANSFORMERS! OPENING JOKE: As the new pastor in town was walking down the street, he saw a little boy straining every muscle to reach the door-bell. He realized the little guy would never make it, although he admired the kid’s tenacity. So he walked up on the porch to help. "Here buddy, need some ...read more

    There is a coming conflict that will boil down to two religions - one right and one wrong. Which will you be part of?

    Much has been written about the socio-political situation at the time of the end, but we need to study more what will take place in the religious realm at those times. Common sense tells us that the closing hours of the age are about a conflict - Satan is seeking to usurp God’s place so that he ...read more

    Is “sincerity” the magic ingredient that makes something true? If that is true is it should be true in any area of life and not just religion.

    Believe in the Person of Jesus Christ. Don’t become so involved in “religion” that you miss the Truth (Jesus)

    And the Father who sent me has Himself borne witness about me. His voice you have never heard, his form you have never seen, John 5:37 ESV In following the movement of the scripture, in John chapter 5, we’ve seen what should have been viewed as a time of celebration for both the entire Jewish ...read more

    Performance-based religion is not the Gospel. In both the OT & NT redemption comes via grace apart from works.

    Introduction: “Two roads diverged in a yellow wood and I took the one less traveled by” wrote Robert Frost. There are two roads before us and only one leads to Heaven. Which one is it--the road of good works or faith? Works will get us lost in the woods. When we realize that none of ...read more

    It seems nearly every bible-believing leader today is saying. We need a revival of the old-time religion.

Some say, “I thought people being saved was revived.” That is the end result of being revived. II. When is a ...read more

    How To Destroy Your Enemies

     | 3,641 views

    There are a lot of differences between Christianity and other religions. One of those differences is the way we treat our enemies.

    SO, HOW ARE WE TO REACT TO OUR ENEMIES? The natural reaction of one who does not know Christ is to strike back and to seek the greatest retribution possible. BUT THIS IS NOT THE CHRISTIAN RESPONSE Illus: D.L. MOODY, IN ONE OF HIS SERMONS, PORTRAYS THE LORD JESUS GIVING DIRECTION TO PETER AFTER ...read more

    Jesus Christ is the central figure of Christianity. This is what separates and makes us unique from other world religions.

    Today, Christians all over the world celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Jesus is alive, and He is alive forever. The ground where Joseph of Arimathea and Nicodemus laid his body began to shake, and this massive stone that serves as a door to Jesus’ tomb was rolled away. And so when the ...read more

    Jesus’ Final Instructions, Part 2

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Sep 22, 2015
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,706 views

    When we love Jesus, we will obey his commandments and we will not find them burdensome. On the contrary, we will obey them joyfully, because the Holy Spirit inspires us to go into the world and share God’s love, even if the world can’t or won’t accept it.

    What would qualify a person as a “real Christian?” What daily practices would they have to observe? What would they have to know? These questions and others like them would be interesting topics for an information session or a class for new believers. There is one basic thing that each ...read more

    In the end we will not be able to say "I don’t want to play this religion game." It won’t be about religion, but about relationship with God. As Jesus prepares to go to the cross, He shares His very last teaching, about our lives, and about the end times.

    A professor of a graduate-school class of gifted students included a HUGE amount of material on the midterm exam. Tension in the room built, people were sighing and gasping aloud as they realized how much material they had covered and were expected to recall. The following week, the professor ...read more
