    Both God and men cover sin. The choice is not whether to deal with sins or not, but to deal with them either wisely or foolishly. Let's learn what action we are taking to deal with our sin along with its corresponding result.

    PROVERBS 28: 13 SINS COVERED VERSES SINS CONFESSED [Job 31: 33-34, Psalm 51:1-12] "He who conceals his sins does not prosper, but whoever confesses and forsakes them finds mercy." This verse is distinctly divided. Two different types of persons are introduced. Two opposite courses of ...read more

    Repentance is more than just a prayer -it's a process.

    Repentance: Not Just a Prayer (Luke 5:27-33) What does it mean to “repent”? Merriam-Webster’s online dictionary offered the following definitions: 1) to turn from sin and dedicate oneself to the amendment of one’s life. 2a) to feel regret or contrition b) to change ...read more

    We are looking at what Jesus "really meant" and in doing so I hope that at this point you have come to at least consider that what you were taught about Christ Jesus, His claims, attitudes, actions warrant a reasoned second look.

    Part 15 It’s All about "religion" I was walking across a bridge one day, and I saw a man standing on the edge, about to jump off. So I ran over and said 'Stop! don't do it!' 'Why shouldn't I?' he said. I said, 'Well, there's so much to live for!' He said, 'Like what?' I said, 'Well...are ...read more

    Acting Good Or Good Actions?

    True religion is not acting good but doing good.

    ACTING GOOD …OR GOOD ACTIONS? Our passage in Isaiah seems contradictory at first… the prophet is told to tell the people they are in rebellion and sin even though it says “day after day they seek God out and seem eager to know his ways”! But God says they are a nation who ...read more

    There is no peace without Jesus.

    Text: “These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace” (John 16:33). These words that Jesus spoke seem to be very clear to me. I don’t know how one could misinterpret what He said. Man has been looking for peace since the beginning of time. Why has he not found it? Is it so ...read more

    All vain-glory, ambition, ignorance, and pride, would be done away by one view of Christ in his glory. This awful vision of the Divine Majesty overwhelmed the prophet with a sense of his own vileness. We are undone if there is not a Mediator between us an

    Opening illustration: Story of a passionate British underground evangelist in Salalah, Oman.

    The legacy of a Christ centered family. There are a lot of Scriptures used in this sermon.

    One little boy was asked to define Father’s Day, he said, “Father’s Day is just like Mother’s Day only you don’t have to spend as much on the present.” The point is there are different approaches to both days but they do hold one thing in common and that is ...read more

    One of the sad truths is that we Christians will sin. No matter how diligently we devote ourselves to practicing righteousness, we are going to miss the mark and sin. When we realize that we have disobeyed God, in some fashion, what should be our response

    True Confessions Proverbs 28:13 The Apostle John proclaims an unfortunate truth, in 1 John 1:8, 10, when he says, “If we say that we have no sin, we are deceiving ourselves, and the truth is not in us…If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar, and His word is not in us.” One of the ...read more
