    Homosexuality is a significant issue today. After the Supreme Court struck down "DOMA" Christians will find themselves in a key position to teach truths about marriage.

    based on 1 rating
     | 9,797 views

    This message deals with the difference between “praying” verses just “saying prayers.” Faith is first and foremost a heart issue; but it is not complete until it is express in our actions.

    Mark 11:22-24 01.03.16 Intro We have been talking about prayer. To be a real New Testament church, prayer is essential and foundational. Jesus said, “My house shall be called a house of prayer….”i This is the missing element in today’s church. People interact with people; but are they genuinely ...read more

    The apostle Paul uses the issue of slavery to simply illustrate and demonstrate how sometimes people can be in bondage to sin, and then how we need to be in servitude to God.

    INTRODUCTION I would like to make a statement in light of what’s happening in our nation. I would like to request that there not be any response to what I say. I don’t want any applause, boos or hisses or whatever the case might be. After I read this statement, I want to ...read more

    There is a monumental issue at stake. The Gospel of Grace is being weighed in the balance. Donft turn Christianity into a list of rules. It takes extra work to be Spirit led.

    How would you like to walk up to the man who preached the Pentecost sermon, get up close to his face, (this man who walked on water), look him straight in the eye in front of a crowd of people and say, Peter my buddy, Cephas old pal, you are not preaching the true gospel. You better straiten up and ...read more

    It Is Written

    Christians are called to address the issues of the day with the whole counsel of God’s Word. Their listeners must understand, “It is written” means “Thus says the Lord.”

    It Is Written The Necessity of pointing to God’s Word There has been a trend in the past few years of very good speakers using their talent of communicating to win a crowd, rather than be obedient to God’s Word. They are falling to preach in a way which challenges hearers to make a decision to ...read more

    Jesus continues the teaching of the Third Commandment by demonstrating that God's name and integrity is to be upheld, and we are to take the issue of swearing and blasphemy seriously by controlling our language.

    Message Matthew 12:22-32 “Not Just Sticks and Stones” Let’s do an “Eavesdropping Accuracy Test”. I’ll tell you a phrase and you try and think what sort of person would use such a phrase. • “We may refuse or reduce a claim, or cancel this policy, or ...read more

    Kindness

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Aug 22, 2021
     | 11,379 views

    The message encourages Christians to cooperate with the Holy Spirit in the development of kindness in their character. Evidence of biblical kindness in our lives is explored as well as Issues that undermine kindness.

    Today’s message is very simply entitled “Kindness.” Are you a kind person? The Pharisees of Jesus day were very religious, but they were not kind. Their attitude toward other people was condescending, arrogant, and condemning. This attitude came out in John 7. Jesus was at the temple teaching ...read more

    These aren’t hypotheticals. Those are the people Jesus healed, the woman with the issue of blood, the woman at the well, the tax collector, the leper, and the woman caught in the act of adultery.

    Jesus Can. Hebrews 13:8TPT Do you ever feel like you’ve missed your window of opportunity? How about the woman with the issue of blood? What about the woman at the well? The tax collector? Maybe the leper? Maybe you’ve lost count of how many specialists you’ve visited, or how many ...read more

    I want to share my story of how the Lord is healing and using me for His purpose even in the midst of dealing with kidney failure and other issues.

    “ But He knows the way I take; when He has tested me, I shall come forth as gold.” (Job 23:10). It is obvious that in reading through the book of Job, suffering is the central theme.

    This sermon deals with the true meaning of Christmas as we know it and also addresses some controversial issues surrounding the connection between Christmas and pagan sun worship.

    God With Us With every passing year Christmas seems to become more and more commercialized—every year Santa Claus, Christmas decorations, social engagements, and the daunting task of finding just the right gifts for our loved ones can easily overshadow the main reason, we as Christians have come ...read more

    So the church was split. In our society, eating meat sacrificed to idols is no longer an issue. But at least three principles Paul teaches in this passage are as relevant as ever.

    Free To Choose - Suffering Over Sin

    Contributed by Alan Perkins on Oct 5, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 192 views

    How should we live in a world that is hostile to Christianity? Not by adopting the culture around us uncritically, nor by rejecting the world completely, but by engaging with the world while guarding against sin.

    This morning, we continue with our study of First Peter. As a reminder, 1 Peter is a general epistle, meaning that it was a letter written to Christians in general, rather than to a specific church body. The first verse of the letter tells us that it was written: “To God’s elect, exiles scattered ...read more
