     | 3,181 views

    The old man Simeon took one look at Jesus and said, "FOR MY EYES HAVE SEEN YOUR SALVATION." Many people sit in close proximity to salvation and never see it.

    Far too many believers play with fire every day by living their lives as CLOSE to the world as they believe they can! Scripture encourages us to flee from the things of this world and seek a godly life!

    The Tragedy Of Trash Talk Series

    Contributed by Mark Opperman on May 3, 2010
    based on 5 ratings
     | 17,035 views

    The real tragedy of talking trash is that it hurts people and damages our relationship with God. How we treat (speak of) others not only affects them, but it affects our own closeness with God.

    The Tragedy of Trash Talk James 4:11-12 11 Brothers, do not slander one another. Anyone who speaks against his brother or judges him speaks against the law and judges it. When you judge the law, you are not keeping it, but sitting in judgment on it. 12 There is only one Lawgiver and Judge, the ...read more

    Exodus 19 - Fear God But Draw Near With Holy Boldness! How Does That Work? Series

    Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Dec 28, 2009
    based on 6 ratings
     | 5,910 views

    What I love is that we are not told to stand back from God. We are not told not to go too close. Unlike the people of Israel, we are told to be like Moses and to draw near to God.

    Exodus 19 - Holy Boldness! I can’t say I have ever felt afraid of God, but I have felt the awe of His presence, and I have been overcome by a sense of His majesty. I remember standing out on a mound of earth out on a property and looking up at the stars. Away from the city, the stars seem so much ...read more

    Unlimited Prayer Based Upon Unlimited Atonement Series

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Feb 2, 2015
     | 3,403 views

    It is human nature for us to become closed, introverted, and selfish — even in our prayer lives. God demands that our prayers extend way beyond ourselves to incorporate all sorts of people.

    Unlimited Prayer Based Upon Unlimited Atonement (I Timothy 2:1-7) 1. One fellow defended himself form criticism, “Some people say I am a snob, but this is not true. Although my butler can be a snob at times.” 2. Does being rich automatically make one a snob? Certainly not. Does ...read more

    After many stern warnings and instructions to His missionaries, to His disciple makers, Jesus closes the discourse with a promise. Those who faithfully served the Lord & who faithfully support these workers will be rewarded.

    MATTHEW 10: 40-42 [THE MESSIAH REVEALED Series] REWARDS FOR SERVING CHRIST [Revelation 22: 10-17] After many stern warnings and instructions to His missionaries, to His disciple makers, Jesus closes the discourse with a simply amazing promise.

    How Does Personal Spiritual Growth Connect To The Church? Series

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Sep 30, 2020
     | 1,966 views

    Paul closes out his second letter to the Corinthians with a plea from his heart for their spiritual growth. Why do we today so seldom see that at a practical level in our churches?

    - I should note as we begin that v. 8 is a difficult verse. Its meaning is not clear. It’s not essential to grasp that verse in order to be able to understand the larger point that Paul is making, so we’re just going to lay it aside this evening. There’s not any benefit tonight in spending a ...read more

    Making Peace Series

    Contributed by Ralph Andrus on Mar 17, 2014
     | 4,184 views

    Peace is one of the themes in the Bible. It opens with peace and closes with peace in eternity. Jesus has come to make peace for us. So that in turn we can be a peacemaker for others that do not know Christ

    The belief that the gifts of the Spirit, the working of miracles and other signs ceased with the last apostle (or the close of the biblical canon/66 books) is called cessationism. The only problem is there is not a single shred of evidence in Scripture or

    Prostitute Wages

    Contributed by Bala Samson on Jul 11, 2024
     | 838 views

    It may not be physical idols but when you forego prayer, Bible and close walk with God and give more importance to 'salary, promotion and making money' then God calls it prostitute wages.

    Hosea 9:1 "Do not rejoice, Israel; do not be jubilant like the other nations. For you have been unfaithful to your God; you love the wages of a prostitute at every threshing floor." " You love the wages of a prostitute" are very strong words against believers who live a double ...read more

    Open Door Of Opportunity Series

     | 4,960 views

    When you find that God has opened a door you do not want to miss the blessing of going through it. Once Jesus closes that door there is nobody who can open it.

    Oftentimes life’s great opportunities last only for a moment. You must seize that moment. It is the time to grab the brass ring. Take advantage of the opportunity or it will be gone. I am talking about real life changing opportunities that we have. These are the moments when you sense there is a ...read more

     | 167 views

    The people of Samaria were starving. Every door seemed closed. Every resource seemed exhausted. But God’s word reminded them that scarcity is never stronger than the One who speaks.

    “When God Speaks, Scarcity Ends” INTRODUCTION Life is full of seasons where resources are scarce. There are times when the pantry seems empty, the bank account is dry, and opportunities appear to be locked behind closed doors. There are moments when hope is hard to find, when people around you ...read more

    Contributed by Anthony Zibolski on Jun 4, 2013
     | 5,143 views

    Holiness is an action word. It is what God does in us and what happens to us when He does it. Peter tells the church to "prepare our minds for action."

    Holiness 101 2 Peter 1:13-1:21 Introduction- I want to look at holiness for a minute and I know that the word holiness strikes fear in some because it plays to our weaknesses and draws attention to our failures.
