"What Is Going On In The Church?"

Contributed by Gerald Roberts on Mar 9, 2015

As Jesus enters the temple he is alarmed and begins to throw out, over turn, and displeased with the church of that day.

What is going on in Church? John 2:13-22 That is probably the question Jesus asked himself when going to the Temple and seeing the things that were going on. What is going on in the church? Jesus doesn’t see what should be going on ...read more

It's Time To Clean The House Series

Contributed by Nokomis Jackson on Mar 17, 2015

You are saved, but those in the house are not saved. God says you've allowed a sin in your house and you are just tolerating instead of witnessing.

The Lost Queen

Contributed by Walter Thomas on May 17, 2020

When you lose your Queen piece in chess, you are likely going to lose the game as well unless you are strategically prepared. The church has relied for centuries on its queen, the Sunday/Sabbath day Big Event. But what if pandemic or persecution takes away your queen? How will you then do church?

THE LOST QUEEN “A lost queen can cost you the game” Hebrews 12:26-28 “At that time His voice shook the earth, but now He has promised, “Once more I will shake not only the earth, but heaven as well.” I’m not Jerry Lee Lewis and it is not 1999, but I can tell you that a whole lot of shaking is ...read more

Celebrate Salvation!

Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Feb 2, 2021

This impulse must always live among us: a joyful seeking after the LORD. For we’ve seen how God has saved us through his only Son. We have such great reason for joy, even if we possess little, or even if we have much to grieve. Even so, there is great joy in Christ.

If there’s ever a special occasion, we like to celebrate it with a meal. If someone graduates from school, or has a significant birthday, or if there’s a wedding, we get together for something to eat and drink. For food can be very festive. We see this in the Bible too. Think of all the feasts God ...read more

Eight new cadets join us this year. Six are currently resident in Fiji and at the Training college, two are learning online from Tonga with the hope that they will join us soon in Fiji. This message is a re-work on one that I had previously delivered as part of a series.

Reflectors of Holiness, welcome message. There are times in our lives when we feel alone, other times when we know that we are part of community, family something bigger than ourselves. There are also if we are in step with him that we know we have a closeness to God that is undeniable. Those ...read more

Encountering The Holy God Series

Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Mar 6, 2022

When all hope is lost, when it looks like nothing is left—when the king is dead and the world is a mess—God is still working. For He is the great and holy king, and He sits on his throne, high and lifted up.

Being a prophet was one of the hardest jobs in the Old Testament. A prophet had to speak unsettling words, confronting sinners with sin and warning of judgment. They were usually unpopular, often persecuted. So a prophet needed a really clear sense that this is what he was called to do, the ...read more

Exodus 4 Series

Contributed by John Lowe on May 7, 2022

Atonement Series

Contributed by Don Campbell on Feb 21, 2023

The word "atonement" is missing from the New Testament in many translations. The NIV does use it three times, two of which refer to the sacrifice of Christ.

ATONEMENT There is power in words for both good and evil. Solomon tells us: “There is one whose rash words are like sword thrusts, but the tongue of the wise brings healing” (Prov 12:18). Jesus warned: “I tell you, on the day of judgment people will give account for every careless word they ...read more

Not In My House!

Contributed by Wayne Lawson on Mar 10, 2015

I have often wondered just what Jesus would have seen that day that caused so much righteous anger to rise up within him? Surely these Moneychangers and Shopkeepers were no more frustrating to Jesus than so many of the religious leaders he had encountered throughout His ministry!
