    The Church Mission

    Contributed by Kelvin Mckisic on Mar 10, 2024
     | 1,768 views

    The church is failing in its mission to preach and teach the Gospel to every nation, people, and tongue as Jesus commanded, because we are busy preaching feel-good prosperity-based messages.

    And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; ...read more

    Acts 4:23-31 gives us several reasons why prayer is relevant.

    Introduction Have you ever prayed, and God clearly answered your prayer? In his book Say It With Love, Howard Hendricks has a delightful story about a little boy who saw God answer his simple prayer. Hendricks writes: We had a lovely couple in Dallas several years ago. He sold his business at a ...read more

    When you read the word church in your English Bible it is a translation of the Greek word ekklesia. The literal meaning is those who are called out. The general use in Greek was to express the idea of an assembly.

    You are most likely familiar with the children’s hand motion and rhyme to learn about church. Here is the church, here is the steeple, open the door and see all the people. Well, when we really understand church we say, here is the building and here is the steeple, open the door and see the ...read more

    The Dead Church

    Contributed by Jeff Taylor on Jan 21, 2023

     | 4,343 views

    Many churches all over the world are dead churches. Why? Because they have forsaken the Gospel of Jesus Christ. They are still living on past victories and faded glory from long past. They are not living the daily life with Christ the Lord and as such, have now grown cold to the Gospel.

    Please turn in your Bibles to Revelation Chapter 3, as today we are going to look at verses 1-6, Jesus’ warning to the church at Sardis. John MacArthur, in his exposition of these verses, used an illustration that has stuck with me. I would like to begin with it. He talked about the phenomenon ...read more

    i was wheeling (driving) my children to school when this call kept coming. It was John, one of my church members. I parked to answer this persistent call. John was panting, as he spoke. "John, what exactly is the problem and please calm down? He kept shouting, "it had happened, please ...read more

    Is it important for us to be discerning of false teachers and doctrine? What should we learn from the Bereans on this topic and how should we respond to those who teach false doctrine?

    Dr. Bradford Reaves Crossway Christian Fellowship Hagerstown, MD www.mycrossway.org Introduction Over the last several weeks in our study of Revelation, we have been looking at the world religious system that will be used by the Antichrist in his effort to oppose God, demand global worship, and ...read more

    The marriage feast of the Lamb.

    THE PROCESSION OF THE CHURCH. Psalm 45:10-17. Psalm 45:2-9 was addressed to the King. Now Psalm 45:10-16 is addressed to the queen. The queen stands for the Church (cf. 2 Corinthians 11:2; Ephesians 5:32; Revelation 21:2, Revelation 21:9). The Church is addressed as “daughter” (Psalm 45:10a). ...read more

     | 352 views

    Pentecost, as it is called in the Greek language for the Jewish Feast of Weeks, as celebrated 50 days after the resurrection gave birth to the church.

    When you stop to think about it…what brought us here today. Now I don’t mean by plane, train, or automobile, but what things in our lives caused us to be gathered today, and each Sunday before and after today? We gather here not by chance, but by divine appointment. We are not here merely to fill a ...read more

    Trusting God in trials, resisting temptation, and living out our faith through obedient action shapes us into Christlike people who impact the world.

    Some weeks feel like a head-on collision with life, don’t they? The calendar crowds you. The headlines haunt you. The phone rings and your heart sinks—another bill, another doctor’s report, another hard conversation. In moments like these, James steps into our living room with a calm, steady voice ...read more

     | 128 views

    Jesus lovingly exposes our self-sufficiency, invites us to deeper dependence on Him, and offers restoration, hope, and true riches for our lukewarm hearts.

    Some of us walked in today with a smile for the foyer and a sigh for the soul. Bills on the counter, deadlines on the calendar, questions on the heart. And yet, here we are, gathering around a Letter from Jesus to an ancient church in a city called Laodicea—a church with polished doors and tepid ...read more

    What does an argument that took place 2000 years ago between two ladies have to do with our church here today? We will find out plenty.

    A few years ago I was talking to a minister that told me the story of his church. He said that at one time the place where the church is located was very heavily populated. It went through a period of depopulation. There were two churches in the area but as people left neither church could afford a ...read more
