Wake Up, Church! Awaken Our Commitment Series

Contributed by Duane Wente on Aug 20, 2021

We struggle with commitment in our world today. Marriages, for example, last as long as life is convenient. Commitment to God has dwindled as well. If we are going to make a difference in the world, and set our country right, we need a solid commitment to God.

Lack of commitment is something that runs rampant in our world today. People do not truly stand for anything or are even truly committed to anything. They are blown around like fall leaves in a windstorm, swirling around, going this way and that. (Chameleon Commitment By Neal Gracey Copied from ...read more

Devoted To The Apostles' Teaching

Contributed by David Owens on Jul 10, 2023

When the church first began, those first disciples of Jesus devoted themselves to the apostles' teachings. The New Testament contains the apostles' teaching and as followers of Jesus today, we must also devote ourselves to the apostles' teaching.

A. The Bible says that the early church “devoted themselves…” to a number of things. (NIV) 1. Some of the other translations express the phrase “devoted themselves” slightly differently. a. KJV: And they continued steadfastly b. NASV: They were continually devoting themselves 2. Their ...read more

The Perversion Scheme Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Nov 18, 2021

Satan realizes that if he takes something that God created for good, and twists it until it is completely unrecognizable, and even causes it to look like something evil, that he can cheat us out of what God wanted us to have.

The devil is not a creator. He is very good at perverting things, but he never creates new material. He can only use God’s material. - Daniel Heimbach(1) I want to begin by reminding us how the Bible says that we are at war daily with Satan and his demons (Eph 6:11-12). The devil is real, his ...read more
