    Paul could very well have used this motto in 1 Corinthians 12 in his description of the church as the body of Christ. He uses the physical human body as a metaphor for the church, an analogy to explain how the church is designed to function in the purpose

    If you Pull a dollar bill out of your wallet, or a coin from your pocket or change purse, and if you look carefully you will find the Latin words E Pluribus Unum.

    I Believe In The Holy Catholic Church Series

     | 11,516 views

    The church of Jesus Christ is catholic, i.e. "universal". All of every age, race, and station stand in need of the means of grace which it alone supplies.

    The most misunderstood part of the Apostle’s Creed is the phrase we are considering today. I have had sincere people tell me that they do not repeat this part of the creed because they think that it means the Roman Catholic Church, and if they had wanted to be Catholics they would have ...read more

    God has a specific goal and purpose for his Church and for each individual Christian. Satan’s intention is to cause the Church and the individual Christian to deviate from that destiny and, in so doing, to thwart the will and design of God.

    Luke 4:1-13 Living With Purpose The temptation of Jesus was for the purpose of distracting him from his ultimate goal and purpose in life. And that goal, that destiny, was to go to the cross as the atoning sacrifice for humanity. Satan’s intent in the wilderness was to defeat God’s purpose for ...read more

    In a world where there are many different "Gospel’s" preached we need to make sure that we are not distracted from bringing the true Gospel. It is not the task of the church to be popular. It is the task of the church to be faithful.

    At school in science we did an experiment called a litmus test. Basically you would put a piece of special paper into water and see if it changes colour.

    God's purpose for our lives in Christ is clearly for His glory and our good. That begins NOW as we fulfill His purposes and let Christ shine through us to others.

    How to let Christ Shine in You We’ve looked at Jesus as the door into God’s presence. We’ve talked about how to get “into Christ” and be “into Christ” in our lives. Last week we saw that what we are to get out of church is Christ. Today, let’s turn ...read more

    This Sermon speaks not only to the Church and the staff but, to the congregation and there role and need within the Church.

    ARE YOU HERE BECAUSE YOU NEED THE CHURCH OR BECAUSE THE CHURCH NEEDS YOU?

    This was a message that God gave me for our church in a time of transition that was a reminder of God’s Call and Mission for our church, but applies to all God’s Children.
