    This sermon examines the profound topic of The Meaning of Life from a wordly and then Godly perspective to bring the listener to a point of clarity in their life's meaning and purpose.

    The Meaning of Life To begin our discussion of the meaning of life, we began with life's end, death. Bill Moyers, the famous commentator who spoke at SMU during the week, quoted on death: "Each night when we pitch our tent, we are one day's walk closer to our final destination."

    Jesus Came to Jericho and left Jericho (This is an illustration of what I said this morning, that if we do not prepare ourselves for his presence, He will come and go, and We will not receive anything.

    How can we follow the actions of faith of the Old Testament heroes?

    Let us continue our worship of God by learning again from Hebrews 11…. v1-3…… faith is somewhat defined v4-38: God lists people who put their faith into action! Putting all of this together, we can better define biblical faith = being certain of what God said and take action on it! God does not ...read more

    Offering - What Offering?

    Contributed by Aham Igbokwe on May 31, 2015
     | 8,825 views

    Dynamics and Dimensions of Offering in New Testament context. For majority of Christians, the word 'offering' quickly invokes thoughts of money... but offering in true scriptural perspective is hardly ever about funds colection on a Sinday church service.

    Majority of Christians have been wrongly churched to be just about as materialistic as the unbelievers however this sermon isn't about money but rather targeted at attacking money-centric error with the subject matter of 'offering' and to dismantle those, in Jesus’ name. To diismantle is to ...read more
