    The Church Of Philadelphia (A Loving Church)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Aug 8, 2025
     | 126 views

    The church of Philadelphia and Smyrna were two churches that the Lord Jesus did not have any words of condemnation for.

    Does this mean they were perfect? Absolutely not! For example, the Bible tells us that Job was perfect and upright man. Does that mean Job was perfect and sinless? No, the only perfect sinless man to walk on this earth was the Lord Jesus. Let me explain how the word PERFECT IS USED IN THE ...read more

    Apostle Paul, Jesus and others, all had somethings to say to churches throughout the bible, be it good or bad. Revelation chapter 2, chapter 3

    IT’S GOT TO BE PERFECT…OR NOT 1 Corinthians 1:1-12 Paul, called to be an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and our brother Sosthenes, To the church of God in Corinth, to those sanctified in Christ Jesus and called to be his holy people, together with all those everywhere who call on the ...read more

    Staying with God in the Midst of Corrupt Days

    (Phil. 2:12-16) "Holding forth the Word of Life..." We are about to celebrate our 75th anniversary as a Church. That in itself is an amazing thing. I am about to celebrate my 20th year of being the Pastor of FBC. That also is an amazing thing. Our Church motto (which you will see on almost all ...read more

INTRODUCTION A month ago I preached to you that our church could change the world by greater faith and vision. Then the following week I preached a sermon on ten world- changing ways to pray.

    They exchange the glory of God for the corruption of man.

    1. Downhill. That’s the path painted by our Pastor Paul. • Man is not improving, going up toward God. • But rather doing down hill… and going FAST! • It’s NOT an evolution toward God is it? NO. • It’s a DEVOLUTION downward away from God. • And the one of the strongest evidences of this is ...read more

    Power

    Contributed by Scott Spencer on Feb 9, 2014
     | 10,542 views

    But what the world knows as power and authority is only a corruption of the true power of God. It has been said that absolute power corrupts absolutely, and that may be true. If it is, it is because of our corrupt, fallen nature.

    Mark 1:21-45 7-14-13 21 They went to Capernaum, and when the Sabbath came, Jesus went into the synagogue and began to teach. 22 The people were amazed at his teaching, because he taught them as one who had authority, not as the teachers of the law. 23 Just then a man in their synagogue ...read more

    The Letter To The Church Of Thyatira: The Church Tolerant Of Sin Series

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Feb 15, 2023
     | 1,387 views

    The Son of God, who has eyes like a flame of fire, and whose feet are like fine brass, says these things: I know your works, love, service, faith, and your patience, and that your last works are more than the first.

    I'd like to contrast two historical figures, Lot the nephew of Abraham, and Jacob the son of Isaac. One leads to disaster, one leads to overcoming. The question you should ask yourself is, which path am I on today? From James Petterson's One Year Book: "He left his city along the ...read more

    How Are You Living Your Christian Life?

     | 2,922 views

    Everything is pure to those whose hearts are pure. But nothing is pure to those who are corrupt and unbelieving, because their minds and consciences are corrupted.

    “Everything is pure to those whose hearts are pure. But nothing is pure to those who are corrupt and unbelieving, because their minds and consciences are corrupted. 16 Such people claim they know God, but they deny him by the way they live. They are detestable and disobedient, worthless for doing ...read more

    Jesus died for the church, wherein we find our greatest selves.

    Jesus and the Church For hours on a spring day, Jesus hung on the Roman cross, jeered at by those of his nation- the Jews- and Gentile Romans, alike. Those who had sought him during his ministry turned on him. He was abandoned by those too fearful to be identified with him. His closest friends ran ...read more

    Are we participants or spectators? That is a question that each believer needs to ask themselves. The church is on mission. Believers need to make a choice.

    Introduction When I was preparing this sermon I felt God ask me two questions. The first question that I felt God ask me: "What is your passion?" Music, Enviroment, Work, Politics, Technology, Cooking, Sports (Basketball, Baseball, Football, Soccer Etc.), Sports in particular provided me with a ...read more

    We have a problem today. Our body is missing parts. We have hands and feet, eyes and ears, arms and legs that are missing from this body.

    We have a problem today. Our body is missing parts. We have hands and feet, eyes and ears, arms and legs that are missing from this body.

    The Church - A Lighthouse

    Contributed by Troy Harkey on Apr 16, 2003
    based on 178 ratings
     | 32,955 views

    I have had many supporting churches, as a missionary, that the word “lighthouse” was a part of their name. The Bible makes it very clear that we as a church body are to be a lighthouse to the world.

    THE CHURCH – A LIGHTHOUSE This will be our final message in this series on the church. (Mark 16:15 NKJV) And He said to them, "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. (Mat 5:14-16 NKJV) "You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. {15} ...read more

    The Church At Ephesus Series

    based on 48 ratings
     | 12,567 views

    The Lord had three things to commend this church for, but the rebuke brought focus to the very real problem of loosing your love for Christ.

    As I believe the Lord is leading, it is imperative for us to consider exactly what type of church Jesus desires to have. While opinions and ideas could, and probably would run rampant concerning that topic, there is one place the answer may be clearly found. That is in God’s Word. While many ...read more
