    Two sinners attend church, but clearly for two different reasons and the leave church walking in diametrically opposed directions. What happened at church to make this difference?

    Sinners At Church Luke 18:9-14 "And he spake this parable unto certain which trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised others: Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican. The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank ...read more

    How to deal with false prophets.

    Phonies In The Church People get too excited about nut cases, which claim to be prophets of God and various other lads/lassies that get into all sorts of scams and jams.

    Justification Through Faith In Jesus Christ Series

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Nov 26, 2017
     | 8,051 views

    A brief study of justification by faith in Christ the Lord and a review of some reasons why human effort can never justify an individual.

    “We ourselves are Jews by birth and not Gentile sinners; we know that a person is not justified by works of the law but through faith in Jesus Christ, so we also have believed in Christ Jesus, in order to be justified by faith in Christ and not by works of the law, because by works of the law no ...read more

    Church In The Shadow Series

    Contributed by Charles Scott on Feb 2, 2008
    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,654 views

    Congregations today are in peril of being like the Church in Pergamum: confessing Christ in a culture that is unfriendly to Christianity, but embracing the lifestyle of those who are not Christian.

    Revelation 2:12-17 Church in the Shadows Pergamum December 2, 2007 "Pergamum: The Church in the Shadow of Satan’s Throne" This letter was written "to the angel of the church in Pergamum." As in all the letters, the angel is a divine messenger. This is in keeping with the opening verses of ...read more

    Tell It To The Church Series

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Nov 26, 2011
     | 5,357 views

    The missing component of the contemporary church may well be discipline. The message explores the purpose and implementation of discipline in the church.

    “If your brother sins against you, go and tell him his fault, between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have gained your brother. But if he does not listen, take one or two others along with you, that every charge may be established by the evidence of two or three witnesses. If he ...read more

    The Church Boss Series

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Apr 11, 2010
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,601 views

    If Christ is the head of the church, no bullying can ever be justified to bring about the result a leader desires. We must permit the Spirit of God to rule the church, and not mere mortals.

    “I have written something to the church, but Diotrephes, who likes to put himself first, does not acknowledge our authority. So if I come, I will bring up what he is doing, talking wicked nonsense against us. And not content with that, he refuses to welcome the brothers, and also stops those who ...read more

    The Church At Worship

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jan 3, 2010
    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,224 views

    The apostolic command to be filled with the Spirit is a corporate responsibility of each congregation, and not simply an individual command. Paul instructs the churches what Spirit-filled worship looks like in this text.

    “Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise, making the best use of the time, because the days are evil. Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is. Do not get drunk with wine, for that is debauchery, but be filled with the Spirit, addressing one ...read more

    The birth of the early church / an Intro to Acts/

    The New Church Acts 1:1-4 I. Introduction a. The book of Acts is a first-hand account of the beginnings of the church. But, the book of Acts is more than history. It tells us about the love of Jesus for the world, and how that love was poured out to the ends of the earth. I think it is fitting ...read more

    Diversity In The Church

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Mar 11, 2012
     | 5,905 views

    Leadership in the congregation is to reflect the Lord’s choice rather than seeking diversity as defined in the world.

    “The saying is trustworthy: If anyone aspires to the office of overseer, he desires a noble task. Therefore an overseer must be above reproach, the husband of one wife, sober-minded, self-controlled, respectable, hospitable, able to teach, not a drunkard, not violent but gentle, not quarrelsome, ...read more

    However you may succeed in your endeavors, without Christ, there will still be a missing piece of your life.

    Now a man came up to Jesus and asked, Teacher, what good thing must I do to get eternal life? Why do you ask me about what is good? Jesus replied. There is only One who is good. If you want to enter life, obey the commandments. Which ones?, the man enquired. Jesus replied, ’Do not murder, do not ...read more

     | 7,037 views

    Our failure does not happen suddenly but is the result of a continuous gradual process of self will, arrogance, overconfidence and a refusal to listen to the Lord often preferring to remonstrate with Him and give Him advice!

    Mark 14:27-31 KJV And Jesus saith unto them, All ye shall be offended because of me this night: for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered. 28 But after that I am risen, I will go before you into Galilee. 29 But Peter said unto him, Although all shall be ...read more
