    Q&A: What would truth be without love? Puffed up knowledge. However, truth mixed with love becomes a powerful spiritual mixture that will convert the helpless and the hopeless. Doctor RT. Kendall was asks the question: “What is the number one reason p

    Growing Up Spiritually Ephesians 4:14-16NLT Then we will no longer be immature like children. We won’t be tossed and blown about by every wind of new teaching.

    What Do We Learn From The Trinity?

    Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Jun 3, 2012
     | 7,478 views

    This is my latest attempt at an all-age talk to explain something of the nature of the Trinity and what it means for us as believers. Please note, I make the point that we can't fully understand the Trinity. It is a paradox.

    [Note to the reader: this is NOT an expositional sermon. It is a talk about the doctrine of the Trinity. So please don't be disappointed that I don't explain this passage verse by verse :-)] Today is traditionally known as Trinity Sunday; and it has been said that Curates and newly appointed ...read more

    If you are sealed by the Spirit then you are gifted by God to help the body grow in Christ. This is an introduction to a study on the gifts of the Spirit discussing their source, significance, and stewardship of the gifts.

    Intro: Ephesians 4:8 quotes Psalm 68:18 which says “You received gifts from men.” Paul is saying something that would have been understood by people in His day. You gave gifts to men. Paul is using this under the idea of a King who has conquered his enemy coming back into the ...read more

    Each Person Is Accountable For Their Sin Series

    Contributed by Jason Smith on Oct 19, 2013
     | 12,080 views

    Why was God punishing his people? They thought God was unfairly punishing them for their father's sins. But it was their sin that made them subject to God's righteous judgment

    A favorite way that people today make excuses for their mistakes is to simply blame them on somebody else, and the blame most of the time is given to someone that is not there to defend themselves. It is our parents’ fault, our spouse’s fault, or even society’s fault. Whatever ...read more

    A look at the nature and use of power in the early church and how it applies to a believer today

    This week in the Arab states, there are ongoing struggles between the official government forces and those who want change. It is a struggle about power. It is a struggle about who has the power. It is a struggle about the legitimacy of those who would rule. At the bottom of the mess, there is the ...read more

    How does discouragement affect our lives and our walk with Jesus Christ? When we are discouraged, we are to seek God’s Will and read His Word, even more than ever.

    Prior to His arrest, Jesus traveled up and down the strip of land once ruled by David and Solomon, inviting the people of Israel to become a part of His kingdom, promising abundant life. His followers fully expected that He would become their king and that Israel would again be prosperous and ...read more

    Belief In The Resurrection Of The Dead

    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,869 views

    The Sadducees try to ridicule Jesus with a stupid question about what happens in heaven. The answer of Jesus is not about the how but they why. If we don't believe in a life after death, we will have no purpose for our life on earth.

    People sometimes ask stupid questions. They know it is stupid; but they ask them anyway. When somebody asks a stupid question, we can assume that either they are too naïve, or they are sarcastic. And most of the time they are not naïve; they are trying to make us look foolish trying to answer ...read more

    Timothy and Epaphroditus served God with reckless abandon. They were willing to go wherever God led them.

    There’s a subject in school you either love or hate--History. People who lack an appreciation of history don’t learn from it. Military leaders study the lives of great generals and the strategies of past battles. Even with the advent of sophisticated technology on the battlefield there is still ...read more

     | 2,321 views

    Jesus persistently reached out to unbelievers despite the dangers to Himself. His commitment to this cause and creativity doing so challenges us to do the same, especially around major Christian holidays.

    1. When you truly become a born again believer in Christ, several things become immediately apparent to you. a. You have had the great fortune of finding the way to heaven, Jesus Christ, and that it’s by faith in Him, not as works, as most people believe. b. You have been saved from an ...read more

    When God Speaks are you listening? When we focus on the benefits of living for God, who speaks to us, we ought to be the happiest people on Earth.

    When God Speaks Acts 9:1-7 (KJV) And Saul, yet breathing out threatenings and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, went unto the high priest, 2 And desired of him letters to Damascus to the synagogues, that if he found any of this way, whether they were men or women, he might bring them ...read more

    Muscle power, charm, money power, beauty, fame and popularity would be vain without wisdom from the Holy Spirit.

    Absalom 2 Sameul 14:25”…Now in all Israel was no one as handsome as Absalom, so highly praised…” When something is too good to be true then be careful!
