    God accomplishes His purposes through persecution.

    Today we’ll discover how God accomplishes His purposes through persecution. When we think about persecution, we usually think of believers in closed countries or what happens to missionaries. Let me share with you a true story. In 1921, a missionary couple named David and Svea Flood went from ...read more

    I stand before you this morning a condemned man … every bit as guilty as that poor woman caught in the act of adultery. I don’t know whether or not Jesus wrote their sins in the sand but He certainly knows my many sins and I do know that my sins were swept away that day on the cross.

    [Pick up little stone.] Yeah … there’s been a lot of jokes about the risk I’m taking by handing out stones before the sermon. Look at the stone in your hand. Yeah … getting hit by a rock this size could hurt … especially if it hit me in the head or hit me in the eye or something, amen? I guess ...read more

    Worshipping The Snake

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Nov 23, 2006
    based on 14 ratings
     | 10,322 views

    Christians easily slip into venerating the "things" God gives to bless us. Hezekiah, as he ascended to the throne, destroyed the bronze serpent because the people had lapsed into idolatry without realising what they were doing.

    2 KINGS 18:1-4 WORSHIPPING THE SNAKE In the third year of Hoshea son of Elah, king of Israel, Hezekiah the son of Ahaz, king of Judah, began to reign. He was twenty-five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Abi the daughter of ...read more

Therefore whoever wishes to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.” Ouch! James is not nice! He calls fellow Christians harsh names ...read more

    The person you are today will determine the rewards you will receive tomorrow.

    INTRODUCTION: Although all Christians have been saved by faith, Christ will still judge them for the “deeds [done] in the body…whether good or bad” (II Corinthians 5:10).

    A judgemental attitude can only be described as arrogant. It is an affront to Holy God. James warns against such attitudes, calling us to holiness.

    JAMES 4:11, 12 JUDGING THE SAINTS “Do not speak evil against one another, brothers. The one who speaks against a brother or judges his brother, speaks evil against the law and judges the law.
