    Contributed by Daniel Habben on Jan 29, 2017
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,309 views

    It's not our wisdom, power, or riches that we should boast about, but the fact that God has given us faith in Jesus.

    I want to begin by testing your celebrity savvy this morning. Who said the following? “Let me tell you, I’m a really smart guy.” “I’m also honored to have the greatest temperament that anybody has.” “I think I am, actually humble. I think I’m much ...read more

     | 12,262 views

    Workers hired at different times of day. Represent? 1. Time they were saved? 2. Amount of 'heat' they took? 3. Proportion of Loss? 4. Amount of Work they did? We complain God isn't being fair. God responds that He knows what's best!

     | 6,768 views

    We have looked at how we are all affected by the trials and temptations of life. Now we look at preparing ourselves to be able to withstand those tribulations.

    For the past few Sundays we have admitted that we all have trials and tribulations and temptations in our lives. We have seen how the trials strengthen us and make us more like Jesus. But James doesn’t just give explanations and facts about all these mishaps in our lives, he ends chapter one with ...read more

     | 6,013 views

    Do you want to live forever, there is a way!

    God had a problem. This may seem improbable for a Being who’s capable of speaking galaxies into existence, but the fact was that two of His latest creations had just made the decision to reject His authority and go their own way. And the penalty for that was death. So God did what any ...read more

    Who Was Cain's Wife?

    Contributed by Scott Coltrain on Sep 6, 2015
     | 7,689 views

    Some have adopted the viewpoint that Cain's wife belonged to a separate group of people with little or no connection with Adam and Eve. However, the Gospel message requires that all have descended from Adam and Eve..

    Why is it important? Many skeptics have claimed that, for Cain to find a wife, there must have been other ‘races’ of people on the Earth who were not descendants of Adam and Eve. To many people, this question is a stumbling block to accepting the creation account in Genesis and its ...read more

    What we believe about God affects our attitude and behaviour towards Him. Do we see the love of God? Do we see the greatness of God?

    This is the last book of the OT and also the last prophetic word that God gave to His people prior to the coming of Jesus. • After Malachi, there is silence for about 400 years when God did not speak again through any prophet. • Malachi came about 80 years after Haggai and Zechariah.

    Nailprints Don’t Lie!

    Contributed by John Gaston on Apr 6, 2020
    based on 2 ratings
     | 5,429 views

    The Lord Jesus intentionally chose a skeptic as one of the 12. Jesus proved beyond any shadow of doubt to the rationalist, Thomas, that He was resurrected from the dead. Thomas died preaching Him in India, because he knew that, "Nailprints don't lie!"

    NAILPRINTS DON’T LIE! John 20:1-8, 24-31 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: Gentle Persuasion 1.

    Living On A Fault Line

    Contributed by John Gaston on Apr 21, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,144 views

    We’re talking about living on the edge, about taking chances we know we shouldn’t, of ignoring God’s boundaries and violating God’s best will for our lives. Our whole nation is living on the fault line of God's Judgment!

    LIVING ON A FAULT LINE Heb. 12:25-29 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1.
