Jesus Answers A Demand For A Sign Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Aug 3, 2017

The “unclean spirit” is Satan or his demons. Satan delights in causing uncleanness in persons, places and things. His going out of a man, as presented here, is voluntary, not like his eviction by force as when Christ cast out demons.

What's Fair About That?

Contributed by Michael Stark on Jun 1, 2018

God's overwhelming generosity is difficult to comprehend, though every Christian has experienced that generosity. We must avoid attempting to cast God in our image, learning instead of the extravagant grace with which He showers each of us.

“The kingdom of heaven is like a master of a house who went out early in the morning to hire laborers for his vineyard. After agreeing with the laborers for a denarius a day, he sent them into his vineyard. And going out about the third hour he saw others standing idle in the marketplace, and to ...read more

Investing Our Talents Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 25, 2022

Believers are supposed to invest their spiritual gifts, and multiply them by winning other people to faith in Christ. If we fail to labor in the kingdom, then perhaps we don’t know Christ after all, and we will be cast into outer darkness.

This evening’s sermon is entitled, “Investing Our Talents,” and it’s taken from what is called “The Parable of the Talents.” In reference to this passage, Donald S. Whitney states, “[God] said in Matthew 25:14-30, that we are accountable for all the talents we have received and how we use them for ...read more

Awesome Authority - Mark 1:14-34 Series

Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on Jun 11, 2023

Jesus is the promised Son/King from Psalm 2, and has awesome authority over people’s lives, what people become, roles in the kingdom, over the Word of God, over evil, and over disease.

Authority We live in a culture that hates authority. Part of that comes from the natural, prideful, rebellious human heart. And part of it comes from the fact that so many of us have been under terrible authorities who abused their authority. But the truth is, life is most wonderful when you are ...read more

Crucifying Your Idols

Contributed by Mitch Davis on Jun 21, 2007

When Jesus said to "cut off" the eye or hand that caused one to sin ("stumble") what He meant was that we needed to cast off the heart set on the flesh. So, what causes you to stumble in your relationship with God?

An Extraordinary Commission (Part 1)

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Apr 9, 2025

Does Jesus still call and empower believers to do bold and amazing things in His name, like healing the sick, raising the dead, and casting out demons? Does this passage only apply to the first apostles, or can it be applied to us?

I want to begin by saying that I was raised in a small country church with a pastor who loved the Lord and His people, and proclaimed only the basics, like sin, repentance, salvation, ...read more
