     | 6,351 views

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Aug 31, 2018
     | 4,794 views

    Christians today tend to romanticize the early church as a Golden Age when passages like this one present a picture of a church with plenty of struggles. What does that mean for how we should view the church today?

There was serious sin in the church. - 2 Corinthians 2:6; 1 Corinthians 5:1-13. - We know this from 1 Corinthians 5 and Paul’s extensive instructions to ...read more

    The world is reacting with anger, fear, or pride over the elections. That is not surprising. What is surprising is that the civil war has entered some churches. This is a topical message on how to deal with it.

    Introduction: The civil war is brewing. Did you see the young lady on the news? She was one of those marching in protest to the election results. And a reporter caught up to her to ask some questions. What she said was downright scary. She said that what we need is a revolution in order to ...read more

In Revelation 2:5 Jesus tells the church at Ephesus to “Remember therefore from where you have fallen.” And so we made it personal ...read more

    Jesus goes on to tell the believers at Ephesus to do the works that they did at first.

    First, we were encouraged to “remember”. Last time we were encouraged to “repent”. Many of us came to the front of the church to confess our sins to God and to forsake them. That was a good thing. That was a liberating thing. But, according to Jesus in Revelation chapter two, “remembering ...read more
