     | 9,246 views

    The model that is frequently brought into the church is provided by this world. That model drives the disciple to step on others in order to advance himself. The model Jesus provides, though often neglected, is quite different; it teaches us to serve.

    “A dispute also arose among them, as to which of them was to be regarded as the greatest. And he said to them, ‘The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them, and those in authority over them are called benefactors. But not so with you. Rather, let the greatest among you become as the ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 1,395 views

    God must judge the sin of societies, and He does so even now. In the midst of judgement, He shows mercy to all who look to Him.

    “The joy of our hearts has ceased; our dancing has been turned to mourning. The crown has fallen from our head; woe to us, for we have sinned! For this our heart has become sick, for these things our eyes have grown dim, for Mount Zion which lies desolate; jackals prowl over it. But you, O ...read more

    Be Fruitful And Multiply

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jan 18, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,121 views

    The Creator's command, "Be Fruitful and Multiply," is largely ignored by the people of God today. We have much to learn even with the second part of His command to subdue the earth.

    “God blessed [the man and the woman]. And God said to them, ‘Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it, and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over every living thing that moves on the earth.’” [1] Undoubtedly, I am venturing into ...read more

    When Outsiders Come To Church

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Oct 24, 2010
     | 4,709 views

    The impact of spiritual worship on outsiders is reviewed. It is the proclamation of the Word and not the frenzied attempts to awe and inspire outsiders that result in salvation of the lost.

    “Brothers, do not be children in your thinking. Be infants in evil, but in your thinking be mature. In the Law it is written, ‘By people of strange tongues and by the lips of foreigners will I speak to this people, and even then they will not listen to me, says the Lord.’ Thus, tongues are a ...read more

    With Valentine’s day coming, and confusion about marriage let’s have affirmation that marriage is good and is forever and probe the question of dating.

    How the Bible Views Marriage Valentine’s Day is coming up – day of luv… romance, dating, marriage… Much of our culture is preaching love and intimacy without commitment.

    based on 2 ratings
     | 3,812 views

    Second in a series looking at spiritual warfare not on the basis of popular Christian views, but on biblical teaching.

    Two weeks ago I started preaching on this passage, and I told you at the time that as I began to study though it, what I had intended to be a single sermon had grown into at least two. Now it looks like three. And frankly, we could spend many more weeks on the subject of spiritual warfare. As I ...read more

    The gift of prophecy overshadows the gift of tongues; the language of love reigns supreme over all the gifts.

    WHAT LANGUAGE DO WE SPEAK? In just a couple of weeks Sharon and I will be in Corinth, Greece, the place where all of this church business happened.

    This is part V in the series - 24. It is a first person narrative account from the perspective of the centurion at the cross. WARNING: It is graphic! The preaching idea: the evidence has been presented. What will you do with it?

    “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life.” Ultimately, that’s what the final 24 hours in Jesus’ life are about – God’s plan to redeem us to buy us back.
