Palm Sunday 2013 Series

Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Mar 3, 2014

Religion is at war with Jesus and always has been and always will be. Religion is not necessarily faith. Religion is often the construct of human beings a system we develop and devise with all kinds of rules and teaching that are from men and not from God. This is what Jesus opposed.

Palm Sunday Mark 11:1-10 We all love Palm Sunday when we can see Jesus welcomed as the hero of the nation. Mark’s Gospel shows us the Jesus we all love the victorious, humble Jesus on a donkey being praised with shouts of Hosanna, Blessed is he who comes in the name of our Lord, Blessed is ...read more

Fatherhood Series

Contributed by Michael Luke on Dec 11, 2015

We’re going to look at some lessons on fatherhood from Joseph, Mary’s husband. No, he was not the biological father of Jesus but he certainly lived his life in a way that stands as an excellent model for us as men to follow.

Paul began chapter 2 with a command to all people to make prayer a priority and to do so by praying for everyone with all kinds of prayer. Then in verse 8, he gave a specific command to the men to lead the congregation by lifting up holy hands in prayer.

Revilers & False Teachers Are Unreasoning Animals Destroying Themselves - Jude 1 V 10 Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Aug 13, 2022

Light accepted, is life obtained, but light rejected, is darkness accepted, and life forfeited. Jude writes of these blasphemers, unreasoning animals acting by instinct, who destroy themselves. Men's hearts follow evil to their own destruction. False teachers will be destroyed.

REVILERS & FALSE TEACHERS ARE UNREASONING ANIMALS DESTROYING THEMSELVES - Jude 1 v 10 Jude 1:10 These men revile the things which they do not understand, and like unreasoning animals, they are destroyed by these things which they know by instinct.

Fiery Furnace Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Aug 28, 2022

The great men of the kingdom came from far and near and stood around the image. Among them, by command of the King, were Daniel's three friends, the young Jews, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego. For some reason, Daniel himself was not there.

While Jehoiakim was ruling over the land of Judah, Nebuchadnezzar, a great conqueror of the nations, came from Babylon with his army of Chaldean sersoldi.

Contributed by John Dobbs on Apr 20, 2023

This is the Jesus Message to the Guilty. If you’ve ever felt guilty - you’ve asked that same question. The Bible is full of examples of men and women who disregarded God in order to follow their own willful ways. They were captive to feelings of guilt and remorse.

Sermon # 44 - He Dwelt Among Us Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Jul 21, 2023

The tabernacle, the temple, the sacrifices and worship in the Old Testament were all pointers to the coming of the Saviour, who would dwell among men. See how beautifully this plan of God unfolded so mankind could be saved from their sins, and have life eternal.

We read in John 1:14, And the Word became flesh and tabernacled among us. And we beheld His glory, glory as of an only begotten from the Father, full of grace and of truth.

The Book Of Galatians – Chapter 1:10-24 - Message 3 – Paul Resorts To Personal Testimony Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Feb 3, 2023

Those engaged in ministry must not be men pleasers or compromise the gospel through fear or laziness. Preach the true gospel of grace as honest ministers. Doctrinal stability must be maintained. Paul had to restate the gospel to the Galatians using his own personal testimony.

THE BOOK OF GALATIANS – CHAPTER 1:10-24 - MESSAGE 3 – PAUL RESORTS TO PERSONAL TESTIMONY We are going to continue our meditation in this first chapter of Galatians.

Holy Spirit Love For All

Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Jun 24, 2018

Saints do not let anyone tell you that you are a second class Christian because you do not speak in tongues or walk on fire or survive snake bites. Such testing and qualifying today is not of the Spirit but is of men not God. Without love I am nothing.

How To Be Right With God

Contributed by John Hamby on Jul 16, 2018

Two men went to the Temple to pray. One is a religious leader. The other is a dishonest, man who has no qualms about ripping people off for his one advantage. Which of these two do you think is going to leave in a right relationship with God!

The Resurrection Brings New Peace

Contributed by Geoffrey Foot on Apr 2, 2018

When we look on our world we see all sorts of violence, terror and war. Innocent men, women and children caught up in situations way beyond their control so they flee for their lives. The Resurrection of Jesus brings peace - an inner peace.

Contributed by Graham Kettle on Jan 26, 2018

Do we want to be more effective in bringing the sinful, the sick, the shackled and the sad to Jesus’ feet? We'll look at the qualities of four men who took their sick friend from a place of sickness, sadness, being shackled and sinful, to Christ's feet.
