    How Should We Serve The Resurrected Lord?

    Contributed by Barnabas Park on Apr 18, 2025
     | 406 views

    We are called to serve the risen Lord as we are Spirit-filled by encouraging one another through Scripture-based words and songs, continually give thanks to God, and humbly submitting to one another out of reverence for Christ.

    Sermon Title: “How Can We Serve the Risen Lord?” Text: Romans 14:8–10 “If we live, we live for the Lord; and if we die, we die for the Lord. So whether we live or die, we belong to the Lord. 9 For this very reason, Christ died and returned to life so that He might be the Lord of both the dead and ...read more

    A Rebuke To Forgiveness-Only Salvation

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Sep 30, 2025
     | 174 views

    This is a challenging passage. Surely Paul doesn't mean that we have to actually live like that?! What it all points us to is a false gospel that is too often preached today - "forgiveness-only" belief. What does this passage tell us about what real salvation looks like?

    A COMMON BELIEF TODAY: I am “saved” and unchanged. - Matthew 7:15-20; Matthew 7:24-27; Luke 13:6-9; John 15:8. - This passage makes us uncomfortable. It sounds harsh and unrealistic. We will delve into how we are to understand it as we move forward. - A good place to start is a major reason why ...read more

    You Know The Truth

    Contributed by Nettie J Pennington on Jan 1, 2024
     | 1,703 views

    God’s truth does not change, and believers need to understand that there is no “my truth” and there is no “your truth.” There is only one truth, God’s truth.

    The truth does not change, and we need to understand that there is no “my truth” and “your truth.” It does not matter if you are a believer or not, there is only one truth, and for believers, that one truth is God’s truth. You may believe that it is okay to hate your enemy, but we believe the Son ...read more

    Some people today still doubt whether Jesus really rose from His death. This sermon responds to some of their arguments biblically and logically.

    Today Christians around the world celebrate the resurrection of Christ Jesus. Three days after Jesus died, He rose again. This event never happened to anybody else.

    The sermon explores the transfiguration of Jesus, revealing His true identity as the Messiah and the Son of God, emphasizing the importance of recognizing Him as the way, the truth, and the life.
