Kingdom Of Heaven [part 3] Series

Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Jul 15, 2015

As individuals and as a church where do we stand when it comes to being the leaven? Are we pursuing to build a strong communion with Jesus Christ or being lured by the leaven of legalism, liberalism and materialism?

Darkened

Contributed by Samuel M on Feb 29, 2024

The one who sees God, his eyes are also darkened to earthly pleasures and blessings. He is completely consumed by God and nothing else. He is so lost with only God and nothing else.

Because God is so glorious and radiates such marvellous light, everything around him will be darkened. All the angels and cherubs will be darkened or rendered insignificant in his brightness. God is so glorious that once we see him clearly, all the things around him, such as angels, cherubs, and ...read more

Helping The Fallen Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Apr 25, 2005

What happens when you sin? Legalism tells us to look down on that brother because they "failed." But in Galatians, Paul gives us a new way to help those who have fallen.

We left off last week by comparing the acts of the flesh with the fruit of the Spirit. Though we all want the latter, we often act in the former. Finding freedom from legalism and the condemnation it brings doesn’t mean you immediately cease from sin. Our goal is still to be like Christ - and we ...read more

Blood Relations Series

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jul 9, 2011
