Exalting Man Series

Contributed by Eddie Snipes on Apr 11, 2002

Is man a god? What does the Bible mean by ’ye are gods’?

Exalting Man The exaltation of man is where the Word-Faith movement sharply deviates from the Bible and historic Christianity. The great lie of Satan has always been, ’You will be like God’ (Genesis 3:5). In the beginning, Satan’s sin was pride. In Isaiah 14:14 the Bible says that he declared ...read more

Dealing With Conflict While Walking In Love

Contributed by Chad Payne on Jan 18, 2003

When the inevitable conflict arises between believers, how can we address the issue and maintain a relationship of Godly love?

Introduction: Notice the word “brother” in verse 15. This is addressed to Christians. This is dealing with believers who are in conflict. In one Peanuts comic strip, Lucy demands that Linus change TV channels and threatens him with her fist if he doesn’t. “What makes you think you can walk right ...read more

If Only I Had It To Do All Over Again Series

Contributed by Scott Chambers on Oct 3, 2008

The message examines Solomon as he reflects upon his life toward the end of his days.

In preparation for this message I decided to Google the phrase, “If only I had it all to do over again” and needless to say, I was amazed by the results. The search yielded 47 million results in a fraction of a second, 0.12 to be exact. After some moments of reflection the amazement started to wear ...read more

Encouragement For Hurting Fathers On Father's Day

Contributed by Noel Schreuder on Jun 19, 2021

On Father's Day, fathers are honored for being great dads to their children. But what about the hurting dads, whose children broke their hearts because they lost the plot? To these hurting dads, who often suffer in silence, I want to bring a message of encouragement today.

THE HURTING FATHER WHO CONTINUES TO BELIEVE IN GOD AND FINDS REST IN HIM Having good memories of your father is a great blessing. Many times at family gatherings, the conversation with my father turned in the direction of: “Remember Dad, the time when we ...”, and then there was a good laugh about ...read more

Our Position In Christ

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Jan 10, 2022

We have communion in our church service because the Lord tells us that as OFTEN AS WE DO IT WE DO IT IN REMEMBERANCE OF HIM.

Great men and women have come and gone, and our history books are filled with reminders of what they did when they were here. For example, today many are still talking about: • Winston Churchill • Napoleon • Margaret Thatcher • Lady Diana • Abraham Lincoln • And many more…. These great men ...read more

How could David be the man after God's own heart?

The Prayer of a Man After God’s Own Heart Psalm 51:1-19 The first thing that we come across when we turn to Psalm 51 is that it is a Psalm of David.

The Debate About Divorce (Part 2) Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Feb 28, 2018

Jesus was asked of the Pharisees regarding divorce, not necessarily desiring to learn from Him. Unfortunately most approach the issue this way today. Their minds are already made up. We need a biblical perspective.

The Debate about Divorce (Part 2) Mark 10: 1-12 Today I hope to conclude the passage we began to consider in our last study. I am well aware that this is a very sensitive and somewhat contentious issue. Likely everyone here has been affected by divorce in some way or another. I too know the hurt ...read more

"A Light That Shatters The Darkness”

Contributed by Clarence Eisberg on Aug 17, 2023

I don’t think I have ever seen a stained glass window of Jesus laughing. Did He laugh when Jonah landed on the beach smelling like whale breath? When the wedding party tasted the best wine ever, did He smile? In his discussion with a Canaanite woman is He smiling through the words?
