    When we sin, we experience guilt and shame, depression and brokenness. But when we come to Jesus and confess our sins, we experience cleansing, joy and healing!

    BROKEN AND BEAUTIFUL OPENING TEXT: “I am losing all hope; I am paralyzed with fear. I remember the days of old. I ponder all your great works. I think about what you have done. I reach out for you. I thirst for you as parched land thirsts for rain. Come quickly, LORD, and answer me, for my ...read more

    In Matthew 16, we have the exact words you and I need to use when answering the question: Who is Jesus? The words that need to come out of our mouths are: “Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the Living God.”

    What's Buried Under Your Tent?

    Like Achan we may think our sin will not be uncovered--even by God. But we need to remember that nothing can be hidden from God and the guilt of our sins still stands. This account leads us to confess our sins and turn in faith to Christ forgiveness!

    Soon after they fell into sin Adam and Eve tried to hide their guilt behind coverings made of fig leaves. Later because of their sin they also vainly attempted to hide themselves from God. Adam and Eve’s son Cain thought he could hide the guilt of shedding his brother’s innocent blood by claiming ...read more

    We can see how quickly satan can attack. In a short time Peter went from confessing Jesus to rebuking Jesus. Jesus teaches us how we can be on guard against our wiley foe as well as how to live with purpose for Him.

    (see also Mark 8:27-30) for context. Dear beloved in Christ... In our Gospel reading there is much to grab our attention as Jesus is in process of predicting his death and resurrection. We hear about how Jesus must suffer many things and that we are called to take up our cross and follow Jesus. ...read more

    Many changes have occurred in the world, but the greatest change needs to take place in man’s heart.

    Text: “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever” (Hebrews 13:8). When God created the heavens and the earth change took place. God liked change, so then He created two great lights, one to rule the day and the other to rule the night. In addition to the two great lights, God ...read more

     | 4,667 views

    In our society, sin has become a "bad word." In the name of tolorance, Christians are excusing their own sin and the sins of others. This sermon deals with the reality of Sin based on God's Inspired Word.

    INTRODUCTION: Psychologist Karl Menninger asked this most significant question: WHATEVER HAPPENED TO SIN? This is a haunting question. It lingers with us, and must be addressed from the perspective of Holy Scripture, and with undaunting courage. * - TODAY, we want safe sex, so people in our ...read more

    Sometimes we feel like hiding under the covers, like a lump instead of facing up to our faults. Through Christ the price has been paid for all our faults, past, present and future. Therefore there can be no condemnation.

    The reason that the church does not achieve as much is not God’s fault, it is our fault of faithlessness. Let us look at serven things faith will do if we just take advantage...

    INTRODUCTION In the scripture read, the disciples were perplexed as to why they could not rebuke the devil and thus heal and restore the boy. Jesus answer was simple—they had a lack of faith.
