    I Believe In The Holy Catholic Church Series

    Contributed by Rodney Buchanan on Jun 10, 2012
    based on 6 ratings
     | 11,443 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

    Come, for everything is ready now. And there is no legitimate excuse to refuse.

    Dwight L. Moody once preached a sermon from this parable; something I’m going to tell you about at the end of this sermon. His title was “Excuses” and as a sort of salute to the great preacher I’ve given mine the same title. I’ve never seen his sermon so any resemblance in this sermon to his is ...read more

    Introduction to Ephesians and Spiritual Warfare. Wear the armour of God at all times as satan will attack those in ministry and servants of God especially when they are being effective. We are in a spiritual battle.

    EPHESIANS INTO & Ch.6 v10-18 The Amour of God I am thrilled at being the person to start this sermon series of Paul's letter to the Ephesians. Why thrilled?

    Keeping Good Company Series

    based on 4 ratings
     | 16,326 views

    Why should I be careful of the company I keep? Should I avoid the company of sinners, and mockers and the immoral? And if I do this (avoid sinners) how can I carry the message of Christ to the lost?

    (Poem) “All the water in the world - however hard it tried, could never, never sink a ship… unless it got inside. All the temptations of this world might wear you pretty thin, but they won't hurt you, one least bit... unless you let them in.” (I could not find the author) It’s a repeated ...read more

    The cancel culture has swept our nation... and destroyed lives, careers and futures. But the actions of those of the cancel culture are as old as history. They cancelled Abel, and the prophets... and they even cancelled Jesus. Or at least they thought they had.

    OPEN: There is a phenomenon that is quickly sweeping through our country that’s called the “Cancel Culture.” It’s a mindset that demands that if anyone says or does something that someone else finds offensive, THAT PERSON must be silenced and destroyed. As a result people have lost their jobs, ...read more
