Know that the LORD, He [is] God; [It is] He [who] has made us, and not we ourselves; [fn] [We are] His people and the sheep of His ...read more

    The Parable Of The Net

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Aug 14, 2020
     | 4,785 views

    God catches all kinds of people---people from all walks of life. God is not willing for anyone to perish (II Pet. 3:9) which is why God gives us the free gift of His grace. God chooses us but not everyone chooses to have a relationship with God. God also wants us to choose Him.

    THE PARABLE OF THE NET Text: Matthew 13:47 - 50 Have any of you ever auditioned for a role or a part in a school play? How about applying for a job? How many of you have tried out for a sport, hoping that you would make the team? For those of you who auditioned for a ...read more

    Freedom

    based on 1 rating
     | 11,148 views

    Real freedom in Christ occurs when we live in God's Spirit and are useful in influencing other's lives for God. Jesus Himself showed us what freedom is. Today the word freedom has been misunderstood to mean license to sin.

    FREEDOM Gal. 5:1-13 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. Sometimes we take our freedoms too far. Like evry other president, William Howard Taft had to endure his share of abuse. One night at the dinner table, his youngest son made a disrespectful remark to him. There was a sudden hush. 2. “Well,” said ...read more

    This message comes out of that uncertainty some of us have about the Old Testament and what part it plays in our Christian Walk, so the subject for today is if.

    if My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land. 2 Chronicles 7:14 This Old Testament Scripture, some would say only apply to the Children of ...read more

    There were a number of reactions to Jesus that first Christmas: some were troubled by Him, others were indifferent to Him, and still others were seekers of Christ.

    WHAT IF THE RESURRECTION DIDN’T HAPPEN 1 CORINTHIANS 15:12–19 BUT IF IT IS PREACHED THAT CHRIST HAS BEEN RAISED FROM THE DEAD, HOW CAN SOME OF YOU SAY THAT THERE IS NO RESURRECTION OF THE DEAD? 13IF THERE IS NO RESURRECTION OF THE DEAD, THEN NOT EVEN CHRIST HAS BEEN RAISED. 14AND IF CHRIST HAS NOT ...read more

    We are about to look at how different individuals approached Christmas. One of them took the wrong approach. The other two with the right approach to Christmas received a tremendous blessing at the first Christmas.

    After a man visited the Holy land, he described his experience. He was turned off by the commercialism. Years later he took a second trip to the Holy Land, and he looked past the commercialism to focus on the places of Bible history. He was thinking more about being in the places Jesus walked. ...read more
