    Christ-The Only Hope

    Contributed by John Lowe on Sep 6, 2012
     | 15,090 views

    The key word in today’s message is “hope.” And there is also the confidence in the truth, that Christ is the only hope! This year, 2003, is a year to acknowledge that truth. The claim that Christ is the only hope is a bold claim, because it eliminates a

    Title: Christ-the Only Hope Text: “Since we heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and of your love for all the saints; because of the hope which is laid up for you in heaven, of which you heard before in the word of the truth of the gospel, which has come to you, as it has also in all the ...read more

    Was Jesus merely a cynic rebel as some claim? Was He merely a wise man or prophet? He was and is the Son of God!

    "Cynic, Sage, or Son of God" Matthew 16:13-20 Introduction An American missionary one day overtook one of his converts in the woods, and after some conversation asked him, ‘Tell me what your heart says of Jesus.’ The Native American stood still, paused awhile, and then replied, ‘Stop, and I will ...read more

    Truths Worth Fighting For

    Contributed by Michael Stark on May 26, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,849 views

    Some truths, those that define the Faith of Christ the Lord, demand that we stand firm in defending them against distortion. The faithful depend upon each of us as followers of Christ to defend the Faith, speaking the truth in love.

    “Some men came down from Judea and were teaching the brothers, ‘Unless you are circumcised according to the custom of Moses, you cannot be saved.’ And after Paul and Barnabas had no small dissension and debate with them, Paul and Barnabas and some of the others were appointed to go up to Jerusalem ...read more

    Facing Your Giants SermonCentral

     | 881 views

    In a world filled with daunting challenges, many are too fearful to confront them. David, however, faced a literal giant, despite the fear and criticism from those around him. His question, 'Is there not a Cause?', challenges us to confront our own giants with courage and faith.

    David, the youngest son of Jesse, was sent by his father to bring food to his brothers who were serving in Saul's army. Little did David know that he would encounter a giant named Goliath, who was defying the armies of Israel. While everyone else was filled with fear and hesitation, David boldly ...read more

    Provoking Thoughts From 1 John (4 Of 16)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 10, 2022
     | 1,532 views

    In 1 John, chapter one, John had the audacity to tell some of those who claimed to be saved that they were liars.

    Evidently John never took a course in “HOW TO WIN FRIENDS AND INFLUENCE PEOPLE”. If he had taken it, he would have had a hard time passing the course. We know this because we see he called those people liars five times. He used “liar(s)” in: • 1 John 1:10. • 1 John 2:4. • 1 John 2:22. • 1 John ...read more

    Amos’ life and message remind us that God expects justice, righteousness, and genuine worship from His people. He calls us to stand against oppression, live with integrity, and obey His commands. His message is still relevant today as we strive to uphold God’s standards in our society.

    A challenge to professing Christians who claim allegiance to Christ as Master of life, though they do not reveal His reign over their lives.

    “Why do you call me ‘Lord, Lord,’ and not do what I tell you?” All else being equal, we have as much power in our service before the Lord as we have obedience to His commands. We enjoy great music provided by some of the most talented musicians any church could hope to enjoy, wonderful ...read more

    One of the claims of Jesus was that He is the Door to salvaton. Using the Eastern sheepfolds, He makes His point clearly to illustrate access to salvation.
