While there he tried to share the Gospel with as many as he could. 1 The Dialogue in the Agora or market place Text, Acts 17:16-21, KJV: 16 Now while Paul waited for them at Athens, his spirit ...read more

     | 12,002 views

    The Shepherd is a God-called, anointed person who is charged with feeding, protecting, leading, and admonishing the sheep under his care. He is a gift from God. Jer 3:15 “And I will give you pastors according to mine heart, which shall feed you with knowledge and understanding.”

    Sermon: Celebrating a Faithful Shepherd! Scripture: 1Thes 5:12-13 “Dear brothers and sisters, honor those who are your leaders in the Lord’s work.

    Contention Intervention

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Oct 24, 2022
     | 1,549 views

    The kind of conflict---contention that the Apostle Paul addressed in the early part of I Corinthians is very similar to that that existed in the split that resulted in the formation of the “Ant-peg Baptist Church”.

    I Corinthians 1:10. I appeal to you, brothers, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree with one another so that there may be no divisions among you and that you may be perfectly united in mind and thought. 11. My brothers, some from Chloe's household ...read more

    A template for us to see if we are being a faithful or unfaithful servant to the Master.

    Are you being faithful? Matthew 25:14-30 “For the kingdom of heaven is like a man traveling to a far country, who called his own servants and delivered his goods to them. 15 And to one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one, to each according to his own ability; and immediately ...read more

    Ask In My Name

    Contributed by Kelvin Mckisic on Jun 25, 2023
     | 2,012 views

    Jesus wants us to have a relationship with our Father in Heaven, and in that relationship we are to ask Him for things that align with His will, doing so in the name of Jasus.

    Ask in my Name And in that day you will ask Me nothing. Most assuredly, I say to you, whatever you ask the Father in My name He will give you. John 16:23 The verse that I am using today comes from a bigger picture of Jesus telling His disciples that He will be physically leaving them, that He must ...read more

    The Fourth Of July's Favorite Verse

    Contributed by Benjamin Utomo on Jul 1, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,754 views

    Many preachers and Christian leaders often quote on the Fourth of July or Memorial Day 2 Chronicles 7:14. They believe the “people” referred to in the passage are the American people, and the “land” is the American land. Can we apply this verse to America and our home countries today?

    Today I would like to focus on a verse that many preachers and Christian leaders often quote on the Fourth of July or Memorial Day. Can you guess what verse is that? 2 Chronicles 7:14 says, "If my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray, and seek my face, and turn ...read more

    LOVE OVERCOMING EVIL. Romans 12:9-21. I). GENUINE LOVE. Romans 12:9-13. In Greek, the first clause of Romans 12:9 has no verb, so could literally be rendered “love without hypocrisy” or “love unfeigned”. From this, I have taken ‘Genuine Love’ as a title for this section. The second clause ...read more

     | 8,026 views

    God hid Moses in the cleft of the rock and covered him there with his hand. Moses sees only the afterglow which God leaves behind him, but still, this suggests faintly what the full brilliance of His presence is.

    Do you have too many irons in the fire? The expression too many irons in the fire originated from the blacksmithing trade.

    The Beatitudes Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Jan 20, 2022
     | 7,184 views

    The Beatitudes are sayings attributed to Jesus. Each is a proverb-like proclamation without narrative. Eight blessings are related (divulged) by Jesus in the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5:3-10),.

    The Beatitudes Jesus' beatitudes are written without a verb, describing present reality, not a future time. Blessed or Happy is "Makarios," a word describing complete happiness, the realm of the gods. The Beatitudes are sayings attributed to Jesus. Each is a proverb-like proclamation ...read more

    The Full Gospel Of Jesus Christ

    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Jan 24, 2022
     | 2,905 views

    Romans does not afford us the luxury of hearing an incomplete Gospel message. Paul lifts the idea of God's Righteousness and Wrath. Both are revealed and should be preached with equal clarity. God’s standard exposes the folly of men.

    Fornication As Was Not Named

     | 721 views

    The ages old sin; fornication. The lust of the flesh tends to lead to fornication by two willing participants. But, this instance (in Corinth) spoken of is more revolting, disgusting, than common fornication.

    The ages old sin; fornication. To illicit sexual intercourse is fornication. This sin has occurred since near the beginning of mankind upon the earth. One who participates in this filthy occupation is known as a prostitute; one who participates in this lewd act for money. However, it is not always ...read more
