    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Feb 12, 2022
     | 3,995 views

    Paul was ready to give his testimony of how he went from a persecutor of Christians to a follower of Christ. Paul was bold to confront King Agrippa with the claims of Christ. Paul even gave an invitation to Agrippa to become a follower of Christ.

    Background The context of this message is that Paul had recently finished his third missionary journey and went to Jerusalem.

    Overcoming The Flesh Through The Spirit

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Jun 4, 2025
     | 627 views

    The battle between the flesh and the Spirit is a reality every believer must confront. Though we are saved by grace, we still live in bodies prone to sin, and the desires of the flesh can subtly draw us away from God.

Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Romans 8:13 Supporting Texts: Galatians 5:16-24, 1 Peter 2:11, Colossians 3:5-10, James 4:7, 1 Corinthians 9:27 INTRODUCTION: The battle between the flesh and the Spirit is a reality every believer must confront.

     | 293 views

    There is a sobering reality we must confront: many Christians profess faith in God with their lips but deny Him with their lives. This isn’t a problem exclusive to modern times—it has been a spiritual tension since the early church.

    Go! And Remember God Is Real - Titus 1:16 Why Do Christians Often Live As If God Does Not Exist? Titus 1:16 (NLT): "Such people claim they know God, but they deny him by the way they live. They are detestable and disobedient, worthless for doing anything good." Introduction: My ...read more

    The Sin We Excuse

    Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 16, 2025
     | 103 views

    Favoritism is a sin we rarely name and easily excuse, yet Scripture confronts it directly. Drawing from James 2, this sermon calls believers to let mercy triumph over judgment and to live out a faith that loves without partiality.

    (Mercy Rides Point and Grace Brings Us Home) James 2:1–13 --- Introduction – Singing on the Trail There’s an old cowboy trail song with a toe-tapping refrain: > “Git along, little dogies, git along, git along… For you know Wyoming will be your new home.” Cowboys sang it to keep a restless ...read more

    based on 10 ratings
     | 9,339 views

    Tne calling of Paul shows us that Christians have a new status to celebrate - as God’s chosen instruments; A new service to carry out - chosen to carry his name; And a new suffering confront – chosen to serve despite the difficulties.

    INTRODUCTION You have been saved to serve. Every Believer can live out their potential by accepting their responsibility to serve. There are three responsibilities ... 1. A NEW STATUS TO CELEBRATE (v15a) In the movie “The Freshman” Matthew Broderick plays the part of Clark Kellogg. He travels to ...read more

     | 8,217 views

    After explaining in general terms why he had delayed his trip to Corinth (see 1:12-2:2), Paul addressed the specific confrontation that most likely had led to his decision to cancel his visit.

    Faithless Piety

     | 1,388 views

    Jesus did graciously proclaim the truth, but He also very strongly confronted those who twisted and perverted the truth. He pulled no punches when correcting those who intentionally used the word of God toward their own ends.

    Faithless Piety Luke 11:20-44 Have you noticed that there are many people who picture the Lord Jesus’ earthly ministry as one of performing good deeds and miracles, while gently teaching love and peace and being surrounded by women and children? Well, you know, that’s only part of the picture we ...read more

    When confronted with a choice, we know what Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah chose. Are we a church of Hananiahs, Mishaels, and Azariahs? I pray to God we never have to find out … but if we do, I hope and pray the choice is clear.

    Somewhere in the world … right now as I am speaking to you … a Christian has a gun pointed at their head because of what they believe. Somewhere in the world someone is going to lose their head or their life today because they refuse to give up their faith or deny Jesus Christ. Right now, as we ...read more

    A Magnificent Hope In The Midst Of Your Trials #1 Series

    Contributed by Ray Searan on Feb 21, 2007
    based on 14 ratings
     | 9,255 views

    Hope, from the world’s viewpoint is just what that definition describes. The world sees hope as a wish or a desire. Hope, for the world, is a longing for something that may or may not take place. The Bible teaches us a vastly different definition of hope.

    Text: Psalm 27:1-6 Introduction: As I read the words of this psalm, I see the imagery of battle being portrayed in these verses. Words like “enemies” and “adversaries” in verse 2; “host” in verse 3; “war” in verse 3; and “enemies” in verse 6 all speak of warfare. Phrases like “though a host ...read more
