    In his fourth word from the cross, Jesus expresses being forsaken by God. He points out to the exchange that happened that day: our sin on him, God's forgiveness on us. Our right response is to live thankful lives that count the cost of sin.

    Forsaken by God? Seven Last Words from the Cross Part 4 * Matthew 27:45-46 Have you ever been in a God-forsaken place? Maybe it was a TDY trip to the middle of nowhere. Worse yet, maybe it was a PCS! And the word “permanent” in permanent change of station becomes a curse. Or maybe your ...read more

    Have faith in a just God. Justice flows from Him. Wait for the Lord. Delayed judgement is not injustice but the mercy of God. Don't take vengeance. Let go and let God do the judging.

    based on 34 ratings
     | 45,302 views

    God loves you not because of who you are but who He is. His love is uncaused and unceasing. Rest in the certainty of His love. Enjoy the blessings of His love. Give His love away.

    Everyone is looking for love. This quest is around us every day, in the music we hear and the movies we watch. • The desire is woven into the fibre of our being. We all need love. We need to be loved. • If everyone has this same need, then there must be a universal solution. That solution is in ...read more

    Absolute God

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Jul 27, 2016
     | 4,790 views

    Many in this world do not believe in any idea that is absolute. Jesus was NOT one of those. Jesus declared the Gospel in absolute terms with no "wiggle room" built in. Thank you, Jesus, for such a glorious gift!

    John 14:1-14 As we look up this Scripture we are (hopefully) remembering some of the sermon from last week when we saw that: Jesus lived His life with the Father ever before His face And that we have a natural inclination to take our eyes off of Jesus and look at the things of this world which ...read more

    Solomon was blessed with wisdom, riches and honour, and they are the favours of God. Let us acknowledge the favours of God in our lives. We seek God, not the gifts.

    The Queen of Sheba came to visit. She has heard of Solomon’s fame and his “relation to the Name of the Lord” (10:1). She came to see it for herself. • She was in awe of what she saw. It was beyond her imagination. • She asked him many questions and saw the WISDOM of Solomon. She looked around ...read more

    God proved His love for us by what He was willing to give up for us: His Son.

    When a man wants to prove His love for a woman, what does he do? • He may write a poem. • He may compose a song • He may buy her an expensive gift. • He may ask her to marry him.

     | 3,727 views

    How can a man be just with God? This is the question Job asked. What could the answer be?

    Ever since the time that man fell in the garden, because of his sinful state, he could not have fellowship with God. You see, our God is a holy God. Therefore, sin cannot approach Him. Notice I didn’t say that He couldn’t come near sin. For too long we’ve looked at how sin defiles holiness. It’s ...read more

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on Nov 18, 2018
     | 9,072 views

    We see the unfolding of God's will and the outworking of God's works in fulfilling His will. God raised Ezra, the man of God's Law, to bring about the next phrase of restoration - spiritual reformation and renewal.

    Finally, we have Ezra appearing in the book that bears his name. Chapter 7. • We ended chapter 6 with the completion and the dedication of the Temple of God, led by Zerubbabel and Jeshua, under the reign of Darius. • This was made possible because of the move of God (1) through the preaching ...read more

    So what does God say about work and what does He expect from us concerning those we come in contact with at work?

    God and the Workplace Prayer- I want to look at the act of working this morning. Work is a necessity for survival but for some it is their life. (Workaholics) To some they dread going to work.
