    Contributed by Peter Pilt on Apr 26, 2019
     | 8,632 views

    There are many ways the bible teaches us to worship God. Here is a sermon I used to teach my church on worship.

    Worship (PROSKUNEO) is a conscious glorification of God flowing from an inner attitude of lowly submission to His authority and awe at His majesty. The worship in heaven is about honour Honour means to ascribe weight and value to something. “Worship Him who made heaven and earth” (Revelation ...read more

    “Whoever, therefore, eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty concerning the body and blood of the Lord.

    COVID-19 has kept church building doors closed. Are you feeling spiritually isolated? Let God’s words speak to your heart and mind. You are loved, missed and desired. The church is still strong and united.

    Spiritual Isolation (2 Kings 5:15-17) Intro: A. I absolutely love the story of Philip and the Ethiopian in Acts 8. I love how God connected this Ethiopian to a Christian to help him in his spiritual journey. Just walk back through that story for a moment. This Secretary of the ...read more

    No matter who we are, or what we have done, we all need Jesus. We need the solid foundation that only He can provide. Anything else is sinking sand.

    Alba 7-20-2025 THE ROCK OF OUR SALVATION I Corinthians 10:1-4 This morning we sang the old hymn, Rock of Ages. There is a story told about what inspired the words of that hymn.

    While Israel and world awaits the building of the Third Temple we must realize that the true temple is a spiritual house that each of those who are born again are living stones that make up the House of God.

    THE THIRD TEMPLE By Pastor Jim May 1 Peter 2:5-10 We are living in a time when all of those who are waiting for the coming of the Lord are watching the events of this world and wondering just how close we are to that day when we shall all be caught up together to meet the Lord in the air. ...read more

    Contributed by Brian Williams on May 23, 2023
     | 2,484 views

    For each of us, waiting on the Lord is a continual, daily decision. In our hearts I hope we would pray, “God, while I wait, I will trust you and I will follow you and be faithful to you, even when the circumstances of my life are not turning out the way I planned it.

    Acts 1:12-26 12 Then they returned to Jerusalem from the mountain called Olivet, which is near Jerusalem, a Sabbath day’s journey away. 13 When they had entered the city, they went up to the upstairs room where they were staying, that is, Peter, John, James, and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, ...read more

     | 8,091 views

    When the time runs out in the life of an individual, “coming close” to the kingdom of God leads to far more than disappointment...it ends in eternal separation from God.

    “NOT FAR FROM THE KINGDOM OF GOD” "Then one of the scribes came, and having heard them reasoning together, perceiving that He had answered them well, asked Him, "Which is the first commandment of all?" Jesus answered him, "The first of all the commandments is: ’Hear, O Israel, the LORD our God, ...read more

    Reconstructive Surgery On The Body Of Christ

    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,898 views

    I believe today the church is more divided than at any time since the day of Pentecost when she had her birth. This is a sickness, and the patient is close to terminal!

    If I were allowed to be the one to make the choice of what the church, the entire body of Christ, should have as the main focus, I would choose surgery – reconstructive surgery to put the body back in a healing mode. I believe today the church is more divided than at any time since the day of ...read more

    There is so much confusion in religion today that some people just don't know where to turn. Are the majority of these groups paying close attention to the doctrine or teaching of Christ?

    "Blind Guides Of The Blind" "And after He called the multitude to Him, He said to them, "Hear, and understand. "Not what enters into the mouth defiles the man, but what proceeds out of the mouth, this defiles the man." Then the disciples came and said to Him, "Do You know that ...read more

    Text: James 1 19-26 I remember as a little boy watching Saturday morning cartoons and a consistent theme was the Genie in the bottle or the mind controlled slave who responded to the master’s every wish with the monotone reply "I hear and obey master."
