    Therefore, just as through one man sin entered the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned.

    (18) Headship of Adam Romans 5:12-14 12 Therefore, just as through one man sin entered the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned— 13 (For until the law sin was in the world, but sin is not imputed when there is no law. 14 Nevertheless death reigned ...read more

    Keepers Of The Flame

    Contributed by Pastor/Author: Terry Sisney on Jul 26, 2016

    We all know that God is a consuming fire, and we all know that we are to live a life on Fire for God, but what we at times lose sight of is that God has made us responsible for our own flame.

    Primary text Le 6:12-13 Keeper of the flame Secondary text Acts 2:1-4 One of the most exciting and powerful things that happened on the day of Pentecost was every head got a flame. I think one of our greatest failures as Christians is that so many fail to ...read more

    Got Faith?

     | 11,528 views

    Sometimes God's plans are so much greater than our plans that all we can do is keep hoping, keep putting our faith in the One who always works for our good and his glory. As we cultivate a relationship with Christ, we build our faith muscles.

    Hebrews 11:1-3, 8-16 Got Faith? Have you ever come down with a case of PCS-itis? You know what that is, right? PCS-itis is when every two or three years you start itching for a move. It’s in your blood. You’re not content to stay put. It may be simply moving down the block, or moving ...read more

    Peace Through Contentment Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jan 11, 2017
     | 11,567 views

    Although facing great adversity, Paul had learned to be content. The Lord had been faithful to provide the strength he needed to endure whatever trials or difficulties he faced. We too can learn contentment and receive strength for our trials.

    Peace through Contentment Philippians 4: 10-13 Our text today offers a compelling and intimate look within the heart of Paul. This letter to the Philippian church was penned from a Roman prison. Paul was bound, and unable to minister freely as he once did. The possibility of execution loomed each ...read more

    Dealing With Divine Disappointment

    Contributed by Mark Opperman on May 6, 2015
    based on 1 rating
     | 8,512 views

    I’d like to give a few perspectives that will help us deal with divine disappointment. When we are less than thrilled about how or when God is working (or seemingly not working), what are we to think and do? Let’s take a look.

    Dealing with Divine Disappointment Luke 7:18-23 18 Then the disciples of John reported to him concerning all these things. 19 And John, calling two of his disciples to him, sent them to Jesus, saying, "Are You the Coming One, or do we look for another?" 20 When the men had come to Him, they ...read more

    Life is unpredictable. One moment everything is fine the next it’s helter skelter. What do you do? Where do you turn? How do you keep from losing it? How do you keep from giving up? When life gets crazy we need to understand that God is up to something go

    GOD IS UP TO SOMETHING GOOD Romans 8:28 INTRODUCTION: Show commercials. Sure; it’s funny when it’s not happening to you. Life does come at you fast sometimes. Life is unpredictable. One moment everything is fine the next it’s helter skelter. And we’re not laughing. What do ...read more

    Do we know who we are? With all of our hang-ups, challenges, gifts, warts and all, “THIS IS US!” Understanding our identity is essential for our health.

    Your World - Own It! Series

    Contributed by G W Bill Elliott Jr on May 10, 2020
     | 3,096 views

    The garden was given to man as a ‘rectangle of control’; a world in which were rules, guidelines, and established systems. Man was placed there to ‘dress it’ and care for it. Man was given full and direct charge over that garden and EVERYTHING in it.

    To own something is to acknowledge it as belonging to one’s self; recognized as having full claim, authority, power, dominion… even to have or hold as one’s own; to possess. Now… how one came about the ownership does not change the ownership, itself. Don’t let the two intertwine, for now. The ...read more

    The Least Of These

    Contributed by John Gaston on Dec 7, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,395 views

    Modern Christians are going to be horrified when they stand in Judgment. Attending church, praising the Lord, living faithfully, and paying tithes aren't even on the radar of what Jesus is expecting of us. We're supposed to be serving 'the least of these!'

    THE LEAST OF THESE Matt. 25:31-40 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: THE SPHINX’S RIDDLE 1. There’s an ancient Greek story about a Sphinx that troubled the city of Thebes. He would ask passers-by a riddle. If they got the answer wrong, he would devour them. 2. The riddle was: “What walks on four legs in ...read more
