    Patriot

     | 5,841 views

    We can be Patriots without offending our God! We need only to put God first!

    Who were the first Patriots? To answer the question, we must first determine what the word means. Google and Webster define it this way: a person who vigorously supports their country and is prepared to defend it against enemies or detractors. Some may ask: then what is the difference between ...read more

    Biblical Authority And Christian Experience

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jan 16, 2011
     | 3,785 views

    The basis for our faith and practise must be the authority of God’s Word, and not our own personal experience. This concept is explored through referring to the instruction Jesus provided to people who had believed Him.

    “Jesus said to the Jews who had believed in him, ‘If you abide in my word, you are truly my disciples, and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.’ They answered him, ‘We are offspring of Abraham and have never been enslaved to anyone. How is it that you say, “You will become ...read more

    When the U. S. Government tries to force religious entities to choose between our faith and their mandates, we have to choose God every time.

    Chipping Away At Our Religious Freedom Today’s message is connected to last week’s message in part only because the President and his administration, mainly Health and Human Services Secretary, Kathleen Sebelius are deeply involved in chipping away at our 1st amendment rights to freedom ...read more

    Regaining Our Purpose Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on May 5, 2021
    based on 2 ratings
     | 8,835 views

    If a church has lost its purpose, then that congregation will be deprived of direction and momentum. Understanding our purpose will enable us to stay on the right path, in order to remain faithful and fruitful in our kingdom efforts.

    I wish to begin by sharing a verse from the book of Proverbs. Proverbs 29:18 wisely cautions, “Where there is no vision, the people perish” (KJV). The American Standard Version says it like this: “Where there is no vision, the people cast off restraint.” Vision, or rather purpose, establishes ...read more
