    Are You Called To Prosperity

    Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on Dec 7, 2019
     | 2,500 views

    Prosperity and suffering are like oil and water. They do not mix. Neither does the Prosperity Gospel mix with the Word.

    Acts 9:15 But the Lord said unto him, Go thy way: for he is a chosen vessel unto me, to bear my name before the Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel: 16 For I will shew him how great things he must suffer for my name's sake. Paul was not called to a prosperity gospel for ...read more

    A Proper Altar Call Series

    Contributed by Mark A. Barber on Dec 27, 2019
     | 3,449 views

    We argue over the best methods to win people, including whether we should have altar calls. Perhaps we should stick to the message.

    A Proper Altar Call Acts 2:37-41 The “Altar Call” plays a very important part of many Evangelical worship services. We want people to accept Christ as Savior. This is right because the Scripture states that God Himself is not willing that any perish. Considering the dread alternative of eternal ...read more

    Hear The Call: Reveille

     | 4,298 views

    We await a trumpet call: REVEILLE. Can we hear the call: WAKE UP? BE READY? BE PREPARED? Spiritual sleep is hindering the work of the church. Let us arise out of SPIRITUAL SLEEP and answer duties' call!

    THE SPIRIT’S CALL TO REVEILLE! By Wade Martin Hughes, Sr. Kyfingers@aol.com My opinion is that we are living TODAY IN A VERY PERILOUS TIME. History calls China the SLEEPING NATION. I think our enemy is using time as a LITMUS TEST to fine tune his last days procedures. This is a test, ...read more

    Contributed by Jack Perkins, D.min., Ladc, Csac, Cclc on Aug 11, 2021
     | 2,887 views

    The ascent to godliness begins in the heart of God’s love, in sovereignty of his purpose, process, and timing. He calls us to salvation in Jesus Christ. Reflecting upon God’s will and purposes for the world, we are challenged to acknowledge God’s call to discipleship, aspiring to godliness.

    We are curious people. People have a fascination about learning the “scoop” on other people. Live is approached like a virtual soap-opera. Some will intentionally go public with very private and personal areas of their life. There are a growing number of people who have given internet access to ...read more

    Micah prophesied during the reigns of four kings. He probably wondered whether any administration would last. It was to this humble prophet that God sent a prophecy of the birthplace of a Ruler whose kingdom would never fade away.

    This morning, we’re going to examine a passage from the book of Micah that relates to the Christmas season; and I’ve entitled our message, “A Ruler Called Peace.” “Micah [prophesied] during the reigns of four kings in Israel and three kings in Judah. He probably wondered, as he watched the parade ...read more

    The Personal Call Of Jesus

    Contributed by Anthony (Tony) Charles on Jul 25, 2025
     | 394 views

    The greatest miracle in the Christian life is not healing, deliverance, or provision—but the personal call of Jesus Christ. When Jesus calls your name, it’s not because you're needy—it's because you're chosen.

    THE PERSONAL CALL! THE TWELVE WHO HEARD THEIR NAMES! Listen to me today, beloved! I want to tell you about the most powerful thing in all of Scripture - more powerful than healing! More powerful than deliverance! More powerful than provision! THE PERSONAL CALL OF JESUS! Look at the original twelve ...read more

    Christians are a Royal Priesthood; what does this mean?

    We have been noting in the Book of Exodus that as the Hebrews headed to the Promised Land of Canaan, God was teaching them how to live in a loving relationship. God gave them instructions and to build things to be used for worship. This morning we will learn about priests, besides Moses. Please ...read more

    The Call To An Exemplary Life

    Contributed by Jack Perkins, D.min., Ladc, Csac, Cclc on Aug 28, 2023
     | 1,702 views

    Paul writes to an audience steeped in the Greco-Roman culture. The message is a call to transform their minds, avoid the cultural influences that pull them away from the call of Jesus. He calls them to an exemplary lifestyle.

    While in Louisiana for the memorial service for her brother, we drove by a home we built while working as an engineer on the railroad. The home was a super nice home with 3,000 sq ft. On previous trips we witnessed it was empty and deteriorating. This time we were shocked; I wish I could show you ...read more

    The kind of love which Jesus models for us takes discipline, discernment, and knowledge of both God and his Word.

    The question Jesus answered for the lawyer that day was “Who is my neighbor?” But an equally important question, and one that doesn’t get asked nearly often enough, is “What is love?” Some enchanted evening you will meet a stranger across a crowded room.
