    Business As Usual

    Contributed by Bob Joyce on Jan 3, 2011
     | 15,197 views

    We can get so caught up in our daily lives that we truly don't discern what God's Will is.

    Jesus had essentially one sermon. Everything He did and said revolved around that one message which was "the kingdom of God is at hand." He reminded those who exercised power of any kind on earth that they did not have the last word. He informed them that with His coming and in His person ... God ...read more

    There are more people that don’t believe there is a HELL than there are that do believe it, but there are no unbelievers in HELL, they were all unbelievers before they arrived there but not now. What a sad reality this is, but now it’s to late, they all

    HELL # 2 ~ LK.16:19-31~ DO YOU BELIEVE HELL IS A REAL PLACE? 5-26-12 Last time we began this message to do with "hell" so I’ll probably say some of the same things again as the context may call for it. "Hell" is found in our KJ Bible 54 times, 31 times in the O.T. and 23 in the N.T. ...read more

    Vision and purpose will help us stand in these evil days.

    A Clear Vision In A Confused World Dan 1:8 8 But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king's meat, nor with the wine which he drank: therefore he requested of the prince of the eunuchs that he might not defile himself.

    Sermon on the Triumphal Entry

    I loved songs from the '70s. I find that most of today's music, no offense to today's generation, just doesn't get it. I love those old songs, and many of them--from bands like Chicago, Bachman Turner Overdrive, Doobie Brothers, Electric Light Orchestra and others just seem to have much more ...read more

    Spiritual Warfare: Declassified

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Jan 27, 2014
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,940 views

    Satan doesn’t want you to think about spiritual things. Rather, he only wants us to dwell on our own selfish desires. Avoid the temptation to delay any thoughts of spiritual self-examination, and make it a priority to encourage others for self-examination

    Opening illustration: During any war, the enemy’s strategy is to conceal/hide some important information from the adversary so that they will not be successful in their endeavor. In fact the enemy will try to subdue the adversary so that they succumb to defeat. The information that they ...read more

     | 5,964 views

    A review of why Jesus needed the Holy Spirit in His life and how the Holy Spirit operated in the life of Jesus.

    A week ago Thursday night when I got home from our summer Bible study, I had a small red itchy spot on my right arm. I figured that I must have gotten some kind of bug bite, so I put a little anti-itch cream on it and went to bed. By the next morning, it really didn’t look much different, but ...read more

    Mankind has made a real mess of the world in which we live. All around us we see the bitter fruits of hatred, selfishness, & greed. No, I don’t know why God should love us. But He does!

    MELVIN M. NEWLAND, MINISTER RIDGE CHAPEL, KANSAS, OK A. There is a beautiful old hymn that begins with these words: “Love sent my Savior to die in my stead. Why should He love me so?” And the chorus of that hymn asks again, “Why should He ...read more

    God's faithfulness and action in seasons of change

    When I mapped out our sermon series post-Easter, I had an idea that it might lead us into a season of transition coinciding with my forthcoming handing over the leadership of our church to the next person God is preparing already to come and lead us into a new thing. I didn’t know for sure, ...read more

     | 40,459 views

    The day between Good Friday and Easter Sunday rarely gets much attention. This sermon seeks to address Holy Saturday’s importance in an imaginative and emotive manner. It was first preached for a Good Friday service and is crafted for such an audience.

    It’s Saturday – But Is It Finished? Luke 23: 54 Throughout the season of Christ’s birth we celebrate Advent, Christmas, and Epiphany. Three months later we commemorate Ash Wednesday, Lent, Palm Sunday, Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, and Easter. But what do we call the Saturday that falls ...read more

    The debate between Pelagius and Augustine was over the nature of man and the sin of Adam. The Second Council of Orange condemned even partially holding to the views of Pelagius. This message examines why.
