    Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on Aug 28, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,304 views

    Showing mercy means giving people what they need rather than what they deserve. This message will help you enjoy receiving God’s mercy every day and will motivate you to show mercy to others—especially in your thoughts toward people.

    James 2:8 If you really keep the royal law found in Scripture, “Love your neighbor as yourself,” you are doing right. 9 But if you show favoritism, you sin and are convicted by the law as lawbreakers. 10 For whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles at just one point is guilty of breaking all of ...read more

    The Power Activator - James 2:14-19 Series

    Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on Sep 6, 2021
     | 2,720 views

    How can you have assurance of your salvation? And how can a deceived person avoid having false assurance? James makes the answers clear by giving a clear definition of the one aspect of the gospel that is all too often left vague: exactly what you have to do to be saved.

    James 2:14 What good is it, my brothers, if a man claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save him? 15 Suppose a brother or sister is without clothes and daily food. 16 If one of you says to him, “Go, I wish you well; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about his physical ...read more

    The Friend Of God - James 2:20-24 Series

    Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on Sep 6, 2021
     | 2,010 views

    We are often told to trust God. But this passage makes trust seem more desirable by casting it in the context of friendship. This message defines friendship and explores what it means to have that with God.

    James 2:14 What good is it, my brothers, if a man claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save him? 15 Suppose a brother or sister is without clothes and daily food. 16 If one of you says to him, “Go, I wish you well; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about his physical ...read more

    The Friend Of God’s People - James 2:25-26 Series

    Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on Sep 6, 2021
     | 1,194 views

    This sermon shows how differently God sees people than we do. By our standards, Abraham and Rahab couldn’t be more different. For God, they are the same.

    James 2:20 You foolish man, do you want evidence that faith without deeds is useless? 21 Was not our ancestor Abraham considered righteous for what he did when he offered his son Isaac on the altar? 22 You see that his faith and his actions were working together, and his faith was made complete by ...read more

    God does not want us to be stagnant or ignorant about our faith. He would desire for all his people to keep moving forward toward Spiritual Maturity by growing in our faith in this world of darkness in which we live.

    The World’s Most Dangerous Profession - James 3:1-2 Series

    Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on Sep 23, 2021
     | 2,307 views

    This passage stands out because teaching is so highly valued throughout the New Testament. Why is it discouraged here? James considered himself a teacher and was teaching even as he penned these words about not many should be teachers.

    James 3:1 Not many of you should presume to be teachers, my brothers, because you know that we who teach will be judged more strictly. 2 We all stumble in many ways. If anyone is never at fault in what he says, he is a perfect man, able to keep his whole body in check. Introduction: We Talk a ...read more

     | 2,669 views

    We rarely have adequate conscious awareness of how dangerous our speech really is and the degree of damage that can be done by the forest fires our tongues can start. This message may be a hard one to listen to, but it is full of many crucial warnings. I urge you to give it a listen.

    James 3:2 We all stumble in many ways. If anyone is never at fault in what he says, he is a perfect man, able to keep his whole body in check. 3 When we put bits into the mouths of horses to make them obey us, we can turn the whole animal. 4 Or take ships as an example. Although they are so large ...read more

    Portrait Of A Peacemaker - James 3:17-18 Series

    Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on Sep 23, 2021
     | 2,864 views

    This message shows how several of the elements of human wisdom have been dressed up and have found their way into the church. We must beware of those. The message also gives insights into how to convert incidents of conflict into peace in the church and restore broken relationships.

    James 3:17 But the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure; then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere. 18 Peacemakers who sow in peace raise a harvest of righteousness. Introduction God will call us His children, if and only if… How ...read more

     | 4,456 views

    How can you be sure you're not among those who have impressive, Christ-centered ministries and yet will hear those dreadful words, "Away from me. I never knew you"?

    Matthew 7:21 "Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. 22 Many will say to me on that day, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and in your name drive out demons and perform ...read more

     | 2,531 views

    If you struggle with anger or are having conflicts with people, this is an important message for you. It shows how good desires become hostile desires and how to fix the problem.

     | 3,294 views

    What could be more important than gaining the one quality that determines whether God gives you grace or fights against you?

    James 4: 6 But he gives us more grace. That is why Scripture says: “God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.” Introduction Listen very carefully to these words I am about to read because Jesus said your eternal destiny depends on whether you understand them.

    Quick Slow Slow (James 1:19-20) Series

    Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on Jun 10, 2021
     | 3,306 views

    We all struggle with sinful anger. For some it’s violent and red-faced; for others it’s a quiet, building resentment. Whatever the form, James teaches us how to overcome it in this passage.

    James 1:19 My dear brothers, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry, 20 for man’s anger does not bring about the righteous life that God desires. 21 Therefore, get rid of all moral filth and the evil that is so prevalent and humbly accept the ...read more
