    Contributed by Pastor Randall Timblin on Dec 12, 2021
     | 1,953 views

    In this busy and hectic world of ours, it is often too difficult to accomplish all that we have planned for us. We need to slow the world down and concentrate on One Thing.

    James 1:2-8 Let me offer an explanation first if you will allow me. From this scripture we can deduce four things at a minimum: EXPLANATION 1. The testing of our faith produces steadfastness. 2. If we allow steadfastness to have its full effect, we will only then be perfect and complete, ...read more

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Sep 15, 2024
     | 821 views

    Have we become mingled with the world? If so, have we darkened the light of Christ so that the world cannot see Him? Have we become rotten as Christians?

    Let us begin by turning to Leviticus 19:1-37 and reading about The Mingled Seed. The online free dictionary defines the word mingle as – to mix or bring together in combination, to be or become mixed or united, to associate or take part with others.

    Incredibly, God can use our disabilities, as well as our abilities for His glory. A man born blind discovers this and it changes both his life and his destiny? How can God use you in a similar way?

    Last week, in John 8, we saw how Jesus concluded his great and brutal debate with his avowed enemies, the Jewish religious leaders of his generation.

    based on 1 rating
     | 2,070 views

But we who are being saved know it is the very power of God.” (1 Corinthians 1:18, NLT) Introduction: Transformed by Truth The cross is central to the ...read more
