  • Was The Early Church Socialist, Even Communist? Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Apr 13, 2021
     | 1,433 views

    Some commentators and politicians who belong to the Superficialist School of Bible Interpretation really mess up when they say Christians should be socialists because the early Church was.

    Jesus told His disciples, "Blessed are you poor" as Luke records it, and Matthew writes "Blessed are the poor in spirit." Filled with the Holy Spirit, the early Christians, or many of them, decided to take Jesus literally. They pooled their resources, as Luke records in the Acts ...read more

    Divine Mercy Sunday 2012 (As preached Sunday a.m.) Spirit of the Liturgy Before beginning I would like to respond to the folks who, in the past, have argued from today’s reading from the Acts of the Apostles that the early Church practiced communism.

  • Are You Ready For Persecution?

    Contributed by David Mcnally on Aug 12, 2012
     | 5,073 views

    Christians were persecuted by the Jews, then by the Romans, and by the Nazis and the Communists, and by fundamentalist Muslims and others today. Why should we in the West or US, Canada, Autsralia or New Zealand be excused from suffering for our faith?

    Gospel reading: Luke 21: 5-19 Sermon: Persecution May the words of my mouth ....... In the Gospels Jesus is recorded as saying some lovely things, that we are loved, that we are forgiven, that we are his friends, but in today's Gospel reading, his words are far from lovely.

    The idea of Heaven works its way into every culture like the way that yeast works its way through the whole dough. Even in Communist China the Gospel of Jesus is being told and shared and people are coming to faith.

    It’s About Heaven Matthew 13:31-32 Matthew 13:33 Luke 18:1-8 Back to the Parables of Jesus Today we will quickly look at 3 of them. Did you know that the parables are about the Kingdom of Heaven?

     | 3,012 views

    "The Communist was very sober. After reading a couple of other passages from God’s inspired Word, this young man was obviously very moved. His entire countenance had changed. He made a life-changing decision."

    Illustration: From Bill Bright, founder of Campus Crusade for Christ. "One day some years ago, I was speaking on a large university campus. A young radical student confronted me. I later discovered he was the head of the Communist Party on this big campus. He demonstrated and railed at me ...read more

    Contributed by Russell (Rusty) Pruitt on Oct 10, 2020
     | 2,985 views

    If we are to be successful as Christians, and as a local church, we must educate ourselves about satan’s evil purposes. I want to talk about satan’s influence in and through the “isms” of the world.

  • The Separation Of Church And State

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Jul 9, 2014
     | 5,685 views

    How does all of this "Separation of Church and State" fit in with what the Bible teaches? Should we as Christians lay aside our beliefs if and when the Lord calls us to serve in the government of our nation? God forbid!

    Suppose your nation was fighting a war. And … there were great and talented leaders in charge. Your nation had never lost a war and was a dominant power in the world. However, in this nation public opinion was turning against the war and the elected officials who were worried about their ...read more

    Maybe it is time to go past the tithe and the concept of grace giving to giving till it hurts.

    Luke 21:1-6 Proposition: You must give to it hurts! From time to time there arises a debate over giving a tithe or give as grace encourages you to give. I believe the tithe is the minimum so if by grace you can and want to give ninety percent like R. G. LeTourneau go right ahead, ...read more

    Karl Marx said, "If I can steal their history I can steal their country." It is about time that Christians stop this theft and stand up for Christmas again!

    Fought/ fight = agony. Literally – “I have agonized over a worthwhile struggle”. At the end of Paul’s life, he declared that as for his faith, it was strong because he fought to keep it that way!
