    In every person’s makeup there are certain ideas about God which we hold as truth unchallengeable; our beliefs, which are not up for discussion. Psalm 24 ought to be that.

    December 29, 2002 In every person’s makeup there are certain ideas about God which we hold as truth unchallengeable; our beliefs, which are not up for discussion. Psalm 24 ought to be that.

    One of the biggest differences between the Christian faith and many other religious belief systems is that it is a faith based on fact, not speculations. Things that we can know, not have to guess about.

    Introduction: One of the big things about the Christian faith that is different from all other faiths, except Judaism, is that it is a faith based on fact. It is a faith based on the evidence of real people, places and events. It is a faith based in and on history, handed down through reliable ...read more

    Jesus resurrection on that first Easter morning is the essential basis of our beliefs. Because Jesus is alive, we can have the assurance that He is able to keep His promises to us.

    1. Easter morning assures us that resurrection is possible—Fact of Jesus’ resurrection provides confidence in future resurrection (20) 2. Easter morning assures us that resurrection is necessary—Sin came in through one man—victory over sin comes through one Man (21-22) 3. Easter morning assures us ...read more

    What you pass on (Your beliefs, your convictions, your passions, your work ethic) to children, your grandchildren, your great grandchildren, hopefully they will pass on to their love ones!

    What does it mean to do the works of God? It’s not works, it’s one work... to believe in Christ. The Good News is that even belief is a gift from God!

    Doors: Open Or Closed

    Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Aug 24, 2017

     | 80,426 views

    The majority of the body of Christ believes that God opens doors (a "yes" answer to prayer) and closes doors (a "no" answer to prayer) in their lives. Does scripture support such a belief?

    The message today is one that I believe is going to challenge traditional thinking in the Body of Christ. How many of you have heard the following statements and, perhaps, even said them? ? When God opens a door no one can close it. ? When God closes a door no one can open it. ? When one door ...read more

    When we are nearing the end of our witnessing, we have to wait for signs of readiness and response. If that readiness indicates belief in the resurrection, the audience is ready to begin their new life in Christ.

    Have you ever wondered how you can share the Good News with the people you meet? If so, the story of Philip and the Ethiopian eunuch in Acts 8:26-40 is a good teaching manual.

    Problems With Oneness Theology Series

    Contributed by Jason Smith on Sep 16, 2014

     | 9,340 views

    Oneness theology denies the Trinity doctrine and claims that there is one person in the Godhead who has manifested himself in three different forms: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Is this belief true?

    OVERVIEW OF THE TRINITY The Trinity is one of the foundational doctrines of Christianity. The Trinity is the teaching that there is one God who exists in three distinct, concurrent, persons. Please note, though, this is not saying there are three competing and separate gods (polytheism). The ...read more

    Going For Life Change

    The Pharisees did not experience life change because they had a different belief. Don't replace the relationship with a religion. Don't make the outward more important than the inward.

    RECAP – John 20:24-28. We saw last week how Thomas finally saw Jesus alive and uttered the most profound statement of faith – “My Lord and My God!” (1) LET GO of our Agenda – don’t cling on to the demands we set. (2) CHOOSE to have faith - faith is a choice ...read more
