Every Word From The Mouth Of God

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Jan 15, 2020

The phrase "it is written" is used seventy-two times in the Bible and even four times when Jesus is being tempted by the devil in the wilderness. (The evil one used it once, too.) Why did Jesus and the apostles lean so heavily on Scripture? Is it really so important?

Every Word From the Mouth of God Please stand as we read our newest memory Scripture together … 1 Peter 4:10 “Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms.” And our memory refresher verse(s) for today is(are) … 2 ...read more

The Resolve Of The Remnant

Contributed by Travis L. Billings on Jul 28, 2019

Despite greater privileges and blessings from God, many of us struggle to honor God and remain faithful to Him. We seem to take His Grace for granted. There will come a time when we will be held accountable to Him for our choices, and only a remnant who stay faithful until the end will be saved.

Ezekiel 5 Remember in Chapter 4, God had Ezekiel draw the town out on paper and lay siege against it to show the people they would be destroyed. He then had Ezekiel put an iron skillet between himself and the town to show he was not going to look upon the town. He then had Ezekiel lay on his side ...read more

Lessons Learned Through The Faith Of A Child

Contributed by Travis L. Billings on Sep 23, 2018

When you trust God with your talents and abilities, and give it to Him, He will take your offering and multiply it. He will use what you give Him and it will be used to bless others.

GOD WILL OFTEN GIVE US OPPORTUNITIES FOR OUR FAITH TO GROW. Sometimes the growth of faith occurs during sicknesses such as when Jairus’s daughter became sick and passed away and The Lord raised her from the dead. I couldn’t imagine the pain that he felt as his daughter became sick and died. ...read more

The Cost Of Following God

Contributed by Travis L. Billings on Nov 19, 2019

The cost of following God, Jesus Christ, could cost everything. Anyone can come to the altar and say a prayer. Anyone can cry out to Jesus and call upon Him. But will anyone be willing to forsake everything they have for Christ?

Ezekiel 24 WHY WE CONTINUE TO STUDY ON EZEKIEL 1. It helps us to see our sins more clearly. The fact that God called Ezekiel to be a watchman tells us a lot of what we need to know. God noticed that the people did not truly see what they were doing that was so wrong and they needed someone to hold ...read more

Hosts Of Wickedness In High Places

Contributed by Greg Burcham on Aug 28, 2021

For all of my life, I have viewed the United States of America as the greatest country on the face of the earth. Our country has been blessed by God with great resources and a great Christian heritage. But last week we saw our government fail on an epic scale.

Ephesians 6:12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. For all of my life, I have viewed the United States of America as the greatest ...read more

"staying Connected"

Contributed by Clarence Eisberg on Apr 29, 2021

In order to imitate Jesus, demonstrate love, joy, etc we must "stay connected" to the Vine. I begin with a story of Oskar Schindler about connections. Through prayer, worship and the reading of God's word, listening to His voice will produce good deeds.

In Jesus Holy Name May 1, 2021 Text: John 15:1-8 Easter V Redeemer “Staying Connected” It helps to have connections. Everybody knows it’s true. It’s not what you know, the cynic says, but WHO you know that makes a difference. In 1982 there was a wonderful book which was ...read more

Gods Remnant

Contributed by Pepe Gonzales on Dec 12, 2020

Never throughout the long history of Israel and what we find recorded in The Bible did 100 percent of the nation worship God , there was always a faithful Remnant ...

Remnant in The Bible is always a two-sided word. In the first instance it speaks of disaster and loss ahead. But there is promise found in it too. It will not be a total catastrophe, for there will be a divinely preserved remnant." Gods People are His Remnant! Is 37:31 .... And the remnant ...read more

The Defiance Of The Queen Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Mar 2, 2021

Queen Vashti was expected to behave in a way contrary to conscience and she refused the king's command. Her refusal was the right decision to make, but it cost her dearly. Living upright will not always gain one the favor of the world.

The Defiance of the Queen Esther 1: 10-22 As we consider our text today, we must do so in light of the preceding verses. King Ahasuerus had thrown a six month long party, culminating with a seven day finale. He had provided an elaborate escapade for all the princes and servants within the ...read more

The Fundamentals Of Fasting Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Feb 2, 2022

Fasting is something that creates uncertainty and anxiety in the minds of many. I think if we will take the time to consider what our Lord has to say and seek to understand fasting, we will become more comfortable with it.

The Fundamentals of Fasting Matthew 6: 16-18 We have come to a portion of Scripture that is little discussed in our day. I don’t think I have ever heard this passage preached or dealt with at length. The focus of this portion of the Sermon on the Mount is fasting. That may be something the average ...read more

The Verdict Of The Vineyard Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on May 30, 2018

As Jesus continued in the Temple, He shared a parable with those present. He spoke of a vineyard, which revealed great significance for Israel, although they failed to see the truth. This was given specifically to Israel, but there is application for all.

The Verdict of the Vineyard Mark 12: 1-12 In our text today, Jesus remained in Jerusalem at the Temple. These events took place during the days immediately leading up to His arrest and crucifixion on the cross. Following a challenge by the chief priests and scribes regarding His authority in ...read more
