    Easter is all about "accounting". When most people think about going to heaven, they count their good deeds... but God doesn't do it that way. How do we prepare ourselves for standing before the one to Whom we must give an accounting?

    OPEN: There’s been a story in the news recently about the US Dept. of Housing and Urban Development, otherwise known as HUD. Apparently HUD has had a problem balancing their books. It seems their books were off about (PAUSE) $516 BILLION dollars. Now that’s not an error of a few 100,000 dollars… or ...read more

    All of us may experience people who we love and count on, walking away for any number of reasons. The Lord will not abandon us. Let us examine the life of Demas and see what lessons we can learn from his departure.

    Sermon – Lessons from Demas Scripture Lesson - 2 Timothy 4:9-18 “Timothy, please come as soon as you can.

    God blesses when we get behind the vision He ordains. Division threatens to side track the church from His vision. This sermon looks at the importance of seeking unity, but not at the cost of the vision God calls us to follow.

    Blessing, Division, and Vision Genesis 13: 1 Then Abram went up from Egypt, he and his wife and all that he had, and Lot with him, to the South. 2 Abram was very rich in livestock, in silver, and in gold. 3 And he went on his journey from the South as far as Bethel, to the place where his tent had ...read more

    When a running horse gets to the edge of a cliff, it’s way too late to say "Whoa." Sin is that way too. One flirting moment will cost a life time of heartache. Let’s examine the subject together!

And of course I was curious and ask her to share it with me. She said, "I dreamed I was in Heaven and I saw this huge chalk board. God said ...read more

    Sin will take you farther than you planned on going. Sin will cost you more than you intended on paying. Sin will keep you longer than you planed on staying. Sin leaves terrible scars.

    WHY SODOM? WHY US? By Wade Martin Hughes, Sr. Kyfingers@aol.com TEXT: Ezekiel 16:49 and Genesis 18 and 19 Sin is a lot like the icing Mom used to make. I would sneak a lick out of the icing bowl, and it tasted so good, I would just have to get another lick. Then mom would catch me and I ...read more

    Queen Vashti was expected to behave in a way contrary to conscience and she refused the king's command. Her refusal was the right decision to make, but it cost her dearly. Living upright will not always gain one the favor of the world.

    The Defiance of the Queen Esther 1: 10-22 As we consider our text today, we must do so in light of the preceding verses. King Ahasuerus had thrown a six month long party, culminating with a seven day finale. He had provided an elaborate escapade for all the princes and servants within the ...read more

    In this message we discover that Jesus is not against us having money; but when money has us it's a whole different issue. Greed costs us more than we'll ever get from being greedy.

    Intro: The African hunters have an interesting strategy when it comes to catching monkeys. The hunter will take a hollow gourd, cut a hole in it just large enough for the monkey to fit its hand through, but too small for the monkey to pull its closed fist out, bait the trap with peanuts, rice, or ...read more

    Our high privileged position is to be lifted from sin and made the adopted sons of God. That makes us heirs, and this time we are opening up what THE INHERITANCE is that God has reserved for us in heaven. It is so wonderful. The inheritance was purchased at greatest cost. Praise God!
