Den Of Iniquity Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Jun 19, 2016

Iniquity is sin at its worst. It is the a state where a person is so depraved that evil is normal. How do people get into that way of living and thinking? And how can they escape it?

Open: Our sermon series over the next few weeks is called “Christianeze” – Christian words that the world around us may not understand. And today’s sermon is on Biblical word: “INIQUITY”. As I was preparing this sermon, one of the questions that came to mind ...read more

Seven Sons Of Sceva Series

Contributed by John Lowe on May 11, 2017

If we desire to have a part in the great work of salvation, every pursuit and pleasure—which hinders the effect of the gospel upon the mind, or loosens its hold upon the heart—must be given up.

The Portrait Of A Godly Father

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Jun 18, 2022

When we consider Jesus’ audience, there is a much deeper truth. Jesus shows the sinners, publicans, scribes and the pharisees what God is really like and he paints a picture of a Godly Father.

Sermon: The Portrait of a Godly Father Text: Luke 15: 1-24 1 Tax collectors and other notorious sinners often came to listen to Jesus teach. 2 This made the Pharisees and teachers of religious law complain that he was associating with such sinful people—even eating with them! 3 So Jesus told them ...read more

The Least Of These

Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Jun 27, 2021

The title is taken from Jesus' words in Mt. 25 when he said, 'whatever you did for the least of these brothers of mine you did for me'. Let's look at how Jesus ministered to the less fortunate.

THE LEAST OF THESE The title is taken from Jesus' words in Mt. 25 when he said, 'whatever you did for the least of these brothers of mine you did for me'. Jesus didn't use that phrase to indicate that the people he was referring to were the least important. In fact, in Luke 9:48 ...read more

Doing Your Own Thing Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 3, 2021

Paul makes it clear to the Romans that they are to avoid both extremes of self-exaltation and self-devaluation. They are to think with sober judgment and just be honest about themselves.

Doctor A. J. Cronin, the famous physician and author, had a very critical professor when he was in medical school. He told Cronin that he might make a general practitioner, but he was hopeless as a surgeon, and Cronin believed him. Completing his medical training, he went to a remote village in ...read more

God Loves A Cheerful Giver

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Apr 18, 2021

The “tithe” is not our money; it’s God’s. When we refuse to trust the church in handling the tithe, and feel that we know the best use for it, then this is contempt for God and His Spirit, and we are treading on dangerous ground!

I remember when my wife and I first got married that she would tell me stories about the Christian camp she attended as a child, because camp meant so much to her growing up. One of the songs they sang at camp was called, “God Loves a Cheerful Giver,” which was about Ananias and Sapphira; and I ...read more

A. One day two men named Bill and Steve were discussing the possibility of love. “I thought I was in love three times,” said Bill. 1. Steve asked, “Thought you were in love, what do you mean?” 2. The man explained, “Three years ago, I cared very deeply for a woman who wanted nothing to do with me, ...read more

What Will We Be Like In Heaven? Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on May 24, 2021

Imagine if a governing authority told you, you must travel on January 1 – no exceptions. Let’s say you were given a one-way plane ticket where you can travel first class. Immediately you are excited but in the midst of your packing you pause to ask, “Where am I going?”

Becoming A Conduit Of Grace

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 1, 2022

One reason why God saved us is to become a conduit of His grace. We’re to become a channel into which His grace is poured and through which it’s conveyed to others. But we can’t give away what we’ve never received or experienced.

My dad used to work as a lineman for a rural electric company. I can remember him mentioning how he would sometimes install conduits. An electrical conduit is a pipe through which wires are pulled. They house the wires to protect them from harm, and to protect people from electrical shock. ...read more

The Biggest Gambler Of Them All!

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 18, 2022

I want to look at a topic that should be a “no-brainer” for Christians. SHOULD CHRISTIANS GAMBLE?

Gambling has become accepted by many, and has become a widespread problem in our society. Sad to say, you can even find it among some churches. Illus: Did you hear about the man that heard a knock at the door. Opening the door he noticed a boy from his church selling raffle tickets. The boy said ...read more

The Perversion Scheme Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Nov 18, 2021

Satan realizes that if he takes something that God created for good, and twists it until it is completely unrecognizable, and even causes it to look like something evil, that he can cheat us out of what God wanted us to have.

The devil is not a creator. He is very good at perverting things, but he never creates new material. He can only use God’s material. - Daniel Heimbach(1) I want to begin by reminding us how the Bible says that we are at war daily with Satan and his demons (Eph 6:11-12). The devil is real, his ...read more
