Power Against Unclean Spirit

Contributed by Daniel Olukoya on May 24, 2009

A People Of Grace Series

Contributed by Dennis Davidson on Jun 18, 2012

God made certain promises to the nation of Israel, which He will fulfill. For even though they've blown it badly, God has promised to see Israel through on the basis of His own integrity and faithfulness.

ROMANS 11: 1-10 A PEOPLE [REMNANT] OF GRACE The thrust of Romans 9–11 has primarily been Israel's rejecting Christ and rebelling against God, and God's choosing and turning to Gentiles in grace. These themes continue in chapter 11, but God's sovereign choice also involves His restoring ...read more

Fervent Foot Faith

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Oct 14, 2009

We must put feet on our faith. Evangelism is credible if we make certain our lives are clean, if we expose what we believe to others, and if we go confidently into the world with our faith.

Feet are ugly. That’s what someone suggested to me the (other day. Feet are ugly. I can’ t remember why that subject came up, but she insisted that feet are bony, unkempt, twisted, weird, and much the worse for wear after forty or fifty years of use. She said, if I recall correctly, that God must ...read more

I Am A Church Member

Contributed by Rev. Timothy Porter on Jan 11, 2021

What does it mean to be a church member? What is expected of me? As members of a church we each hold a unique place in the church. As members of a church we each have certain responsibilities in the local body of believers.

I AM A CHURCH MEMBER For many people, church membership simply means that we attend church, and we will do so until we cease to be happy where we attend, then we will find another church to attend. We think that being a church member is something that gives us the right to vote on matter that ...read more

Identifying Any Stealthy Opposition Series

Contributed by Allan Quak on Jan 9, 2020

Jude references a wide range of sources, including Jewish literature and contemporary examples, to equip his readers to discern the “certain individuals” who have slipped into the church. His descriptions continue to give us discernment.

Message Jude 5-16 Identifying Any Stealthy Opposition We are going to start this message with a brief look at “divine inspiration” This is the term we use to describe how the divine Scripture is written by human authors. Two Bible passages are very important in this regard. Above all, you must ...read more

Ruin Without Remedy Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 27, 2021

The unforgivable sin is not a sin you can stumble into accidentally, or perform in ignorance. You can blaspheme God and Christ in ignorance not knowing what you are doing, but the unforgivable sin is a sin done with clear and certain knowledge.

A certain seer warned Caesar to be on guard against a great peril on the day of March which the Romans called Ides. When the day came and Caesar was on his way to the senate house he greeted the seer with a jest, and said, "Well, the Ides of March are come." "Aye," said the ...read more

"i Don't Get Anything Out Of Church." Series

Contributed by Jonathan Kruschel on Oct 7, 2019

People come to church with certain expectations. But are those the expectations that God wants us to come with, or are they are our own expectations? See how God's promises far exceed our expectations for church.

“I don’t get anything out of it.” You’ve probably heard it as a reason for someone no longer going to church and maybe you’ve actually had the thought yourself. You walked out of church and thought, “I just don’t feel like I got anything out of it.” People come to church with certain ...read more

Hope Beyond Division: Reasons To Pull Together

Contributed by Douglas Phillips on Apr 20, 2017

iT'S TOO EASY TO DISAGREE AND RUN AWAY. iT'S A FAR GREATER BLESSING TO STAND TOGETHER EVEN IF WE DISAGREE ON CERTAIN THINGS. AS I ALWAYS SAY "EVERYONE HAS THE RIGHT TO BE WRONG".

HOPE BEYOND DIVISION: REASONS TO PULL TOGETHER 1 PETER 1:22 – 2:3 IF YOU WERE TO ASK MY WIFE, SHE WOULD TELL YOU THAT I AM NOT GREAT AT MATH. I NEEDED 105 TO PASS MY FINAL IN HIGH SCHOOL.

The Spirit’s Personality Series

Contributed by Bill Walker on Feb 25, 2017

The works of the Spirit proclaim his personality. The Holy Spirit is our guide that sometimes forbids certain actions. God’s Spirit can suffer slights and injuries. The Holy Spirit can be lied to.

THE SPIRIT’S PERSONALITY In many Christian circles the Holy Spirit is either neglected, forgotten, or misunderstood. The One given, to unite the body of Christ is the center of controversy … So often Christian work is so rigidly programmed that it seems we need no longer depend on Him ...read more

Taken Away

Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Apr 13, 2015

God will remove certain individuals from earth just as they are alive and well and He will take them up or to Heaven for some undisclosed purpose. These abductees are still human but not eternal and God will use them at a later date.

Taken Away 2 Kings 2:5-17 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 The title of today’s message may be one that some of you have a hard time putting into context. By taken away I do not mean that my wife has called Tom Millard’s co-workers to come and pick me up and take me away to that special ...read more

Let My People Go

Contributed by Brett Crosson on Jun 10, 2019

A lack of commitment to God and His kingdom may be an indicator that we are still somewhat bound in certain areas of our lives. Christ wants us to be set free so that we can serve the purposes of God.

Exodus 6:6 NIV 6 “Therefore, say to the Israelites: ‘I am the Lord, and I will bring you out from under the yoke (burdens) of the Egyptians. I will free you from being slaves (bondage) to them, and I will redeem you with an outstretched arm... Prayer A little background to put that verse in ...read more

Elders In The Congregation Part 2 Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Mar 20, 2018

When Paul left Crete, there were certain things that still needed to be set in order; there were false teachers to be silenced, and there was the pressing need for recognized spiritual guides in the assemblies. He left Titus to handle these matters.

Chapter 1, Verses 5-9 Title: Elders in the Congregation For this reason I left you in Crete, that you should set in order the things that are lacking, and appoint elders in every city as I commanded you— if a man is blameless, the husband of one wife, having faithful children not accused of ...read more

Loss Is Gain Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on May 7, 2018

While serving the Lord and walking with Him, we learn a great paradox - genuine gain often comes through loss. We must lose certain things in order to gain what the Lord desires for us.

Loss is Gain Matthew 16: 24-26 1 Tim.6:6-7 – But godliness with contentment is great gain. [7] For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out. Many in our world today are fixated on material wealth and social status in this life. The majority of their energy is ...read more

Contributed by Victor Ramlall on Feb 25, 2014

Where have you parked your life? Illegal parking brings with it certain penalties such as tickets, towing, charges and fines. As disciples of Christ we need to be aware of where we have a tendency to park spiritually

All drivers at some time or other experienced the lovely frustration of driving around trying to find a parking spot. Sometimes you need to park in order to transact whatever business or appointment is pending. Sometimes you just park! Our life as believers and disciples of Christ is viewed as a ...read more

The Revelation Of Palm Sunday

Contributed by T.j. Conwell on Apr 13, 2014

One thing is certain: nothing can escape the eyes of our Lord. We will either be harvested by the Lord of all creation (Jesus), or, by the lord of this Earth (Satan). The choice of who you will be reaped by is yours completely!
