  • Prostitute Wages

    Contributed by Bala Samson on Jul 11, 2024
     | 638 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

     | 4,660 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

    SERVANT OF GOD WHO IS AWARE OF HIS PORTION & POSITION By Rev. Saumiman Saud* Talking about people who "Know Themselves" as opposed to those who "Don't Know Themselves" is closely related to a person's personality. Those who know themselves are like "rice ...read more

  • Holy Ghost -- Who Is He?

    Contributed by Michael Brown on Oct 20, 2024
     | 626 views

    I wrote this message to share at the assisted living home a few days before Halloween. Because it was so close to Halloween I wrote the message about the one REAL Ghost, the Holy Ghost!

    Holy Ghost – Who is He? When Halloween comes people gather together to tell spooky stories to scare the young ones. Parents tell the kids stories about ghosts & goblins. The ghost is also a good last-minute Halloween costume. Mom takes a white bedsheet & cuts or draws holes in it for the ...read more

    This closing sermon emphasizes the importance of continuing to cultivate a life attuned to hearing and following God’s voice. It calls the congregation to embrace the journey of listening, trusting, and obeying God’s direction daily.

  • The Major Events At The Cross Series

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Nov 27, 2024
     | 458 views

    John was an eyewitness of the crucifixion, and he closed his account of the crucifixion by saying “the man who saw it has given testimony, and his testimony is true…that you also may believe.”

    The most significant event in history is the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. We are saved by His death. Because He died, we live. But there IS a condition. We have to believe, and it’s the necessity for belief that John stressed throughout his gospel. He was an eyewitness of the crucifixion, and ...read more

  • New Birth - A Passport To Heaven!

    Contributed by Reggie Corfield on May 13, 2024
     | 1,373 views

    Never compromise for cheap Christianity that takes you close but not far enough to inherit eternal life. Many good people like Nicodemus are so caught up with religion that they lose sight of eternity.

    A little girl had been attending Church for a while. One day, she asked her mother “Where did people come from?” Her mother answered “God made Adam and Eve and they had children and that is how all of us came.” A couple of days later she asked her father the same question. The father said “This is ...read more

    The signs of the times are everywhere, and the day and the time is drawing close when up in Heaven God will say “it is time,” and Gabriel’s trumpet will sound announcing that the Lord Jesus Christ is coming to earth again.

    God is so good. God is sooooo good! Although we have failed God so many times, He has never failed us. When things in our lives have got the hardest, that’s when God has been the strongest. When we have been too weak to walk alone, God has carried us. He is the Creator and the sustainer of all ...read more

    When you study the event of David vs Goliath closely you gain some valuable insight: that the real giant that day was not the one big in stature but the one who was completely sold out to God.

  • Jesus Defends The Wrong

    Contributed by Matthew Morine on May 25, 2007
    based on 6 ratings
     | 2,907 views

    Christians run through society judging sin. But instead of judging the failing morality of the world, Christains should love people through sin. It is easy to judge from afar; it is courageous to love up close.

    Jesus Defends the Wrong Theme: Jesus protects the sinner from the self-righteous. Text: John 8:1-11 Lucy is a pretty fourteen year old girl. Maybe that was half of the problem; she was too attractive too early in life. She started dating Mark at the beginning of the school year, Mark was a ...read more
