    A Call To Stand: Voting For Righteousness And Defending Truth Series

    Contributed by Ron Auch Jr on Mar 23, 2025
     | 252 views

    We are living in a time when truth is being distorted, morality is under attack, and the very foundations of righteousness are being challenged. We are not called to sit on the sidelines. We are called to stand in the gap, to be the salt and light in a dark world, and to fight for righteousness.

    A Call to Stand: Voting for Righteousness and Defending Truth Key Texts: Proverbs 14:34, Isaiah 1:17, Psalm 82:3-4, Matthew 5:13-16 Introduction We are living in a time when truth is being distorted, morality is under attack, and the very foundations of righteousness are being challenged.

     | 1,510 views

    What is it that you and I see when we go to God? Do we see ourselves through God’s lens?

    All seems very wonderful on the surface. How wonderful it is for men to pray! How wonderful as in the days of old when we first read of how men began to call upon the name of the Lord in Genesis 4:26. So now we see in Luke 18 the telling from Jesus of two men, two prayers. The declaration being ...read more

    Fathers-Passing On The Faith

    Contributed by Doug Fannon on Jun 17, 2018
    based on 2 ratings
     | 7,974 views

    Fathers are crucial to the next generation. Not passing on the faith, not just mere beliefs, by living out the truths of God's Word, will turn us into a godless society within a generation. Look around at our country, we are almost there.

    The first place to share your faith is where you live. Remember we must back up our words with our life. Our goal in life is to live a life that reflects Jesus Christ. Fathers are to lead the way as the spiritual leader in the family. The question for fathers this morning is; What are you passing ...read more

    based on 17 ratings
     | 5,664 views

    The answer to these questions is clear. Righteousness cannot mix with lawlessness; light can have no communion with darkness; Christ and Belial cannnot be of one accord; a believer cannot have part with an infidel; and there can be no agreement of the te

    He Forgave

     | 6,028 views

    At the crucifixion of Jesus, human beings did their worst. The vileness of the human heart was displayed in all its ugliness. The creature executed the creator. At that dark moment, divine love triumphed and said, “Father, forgive them.”

    He Forgave Luke 23:34a 10/16/05 2389 words Please turn in your Bibles to the gospel of Luke, chapter 24 and follow along as I read the first part of v34. 34 Then Jesus said, "Father, forgive them; for they do not know what they are doing."

    The battle is spiritual -- it is against the devil and, his hordes of demons, the powers of darkness and sin. We will all be tested -- everyone of us marked with the sign of the cross and confessing Jesus Christ as Lord are ENEMIES of the devil.

    One of my favorite movies is “The Godfather” by Mario Puzo. This movie, about a family involved in organized crime,contains some very powerful lessons about the twisted thinking of those whose lives are controlled by Satan. One memorable scene shows a meeting called to make peace after a war ...read more

    He who is the Light of this world, and the Creator of all light, will be the lamp of the city. He is the Lamb of God that takes away the sin of the world, and thus, He becomes the Lamp of God that takes away the darkness forever.

    Resolve To Fail

    Contributed by Andy Payne on Jan 10, 2010
     | 3,204 views

    A biblical look at change for the Christian is encouraging. Scripture teaches that not only is change possible, it is fundamental to the gospel message. Christ’s ministry was a call to move us from the kingdom of darkness into the kingdom of light.

    Intro: New Year is a time of new beginnings and more often than not we use this time to make many resolutions about what we would like to change or accomplish. Goal setting has never been one of my strong points. I am a classic type B personality—just ask Bonnie—I was not born with a ...read more

    Even so, when tragedy strikes and your emotions are strongly felt, you especially need direction from the Lord. You need to know what to do in such a dark hour. You need direction.

    Moreover, the deaths occurred "at midnight," in the weirdest hour, at the quietest time, and in the deepest darkness. So it had been prophesied (Exodus 11:4), but the particular night had not been announced.
