    Shadows Of The Past

     | 4,316 views

    We have heard the expression, "Let go and let God". Let your problems go and let God deal with them. Let go of your worries and let God take care of that. Let go of your past and let God give you a future. And yet we have forgotten that proven philosophy.

    So many times, we have heard the expression, "Let go and let God". Let your problems go and let God deal with them. Let go of your worries and let God take care of that. Let go of your past and let God give you a future. All of that is as true as the Holy Scriptures themselves. And yet ...read more

    How can we "maintain" unity in a world of churches that divide and split as a matter of course?

    The story is told about a poor church in Tennessee back in the early 1900s. The congregation had had a terrible argument… and (sadly) there was a split. They couldn’t stand each other., however, neither side could afford to leave and build their own church building. And so they both continued ...read more

    The Price Of Peace

    Jesus warns his followers that the consequences of following him will be painful and disruptive, and that they’d better be prepared for it.

    The disciples were confused. When the Messiah came, peace and righteousness would reign from one end of the earth to the other. All the prophets agreed. And if Jesus was the Messiah as they were all now pretty sure he was, he would be the one who brought it about. He would be the Prince of Peace ...read more

    This parable is special, because it tells us a great deal about God the Father’s great love for mankind.

    Now we mortals love certain people, but if there are things in their life that we do not like, we generally brush them aside. We all can be thankful indeed that God the Father loves everyone, He even loves the most ungodly sinner on the face of the earth. He does not love their evil deeds, but He ...read more

     | 2,297 views

    We have heard it said many times, in many places, by many people, “DO UNTO OTHERS AS YOU WOULD HAVE THEM DO UNTO YOU.”

    This would be a great place to live if everyone lived by this Bible principle. The fact is, many among us would be irate, to say the least, if others treated us the way we treat others.

    The Call To Rebuild

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Aug 19, 2021
    based on 4 ratings
     | 11,788 views

    God is calling the church to rebuild after the Corona Virus pandemic lock-downs. But amidst the challenges, it takes uncommon trust and surrender to tackle what God is asking. This message can be re-worked for a building program.

    Someone once said, “Build. Destroy. Rebuild. I’ve mastered the art of bouncing back. Now, to master the art of not having to” (Dau Voire). This is probably how a lot of us feel. We’re tired of striving and struggling, and we’re tired of having to rebuild. But rebuilding is necessary in order ...read more

    In a world where truth has become relative, righteousness has become offensive. This in the believer’s warfare, leaves us vulnerable and defeated.

    If there isn't a Day of Judgment, then God could not claim to be a righteous God. But God will come and judge us in righteous judgment. What can that mean to us?

    I’m going to give you a test this morning. I’m going to present facts regarding an historical figure from the back in the 1700s, and then I’m going to ask you who I have described: He was a brilliant general who won several battles for his nation, but over time, this general became angry about ...read more
