    Who Do You Follow? Series

     | 6,013 views

    The contrast of Herod killing John the Baptist to Jesus feeding 5000 in Mark 6 is very revealing of the life of sin vs. a life of service. We must be totally devoted to Christ to live for Him, and cannot live like He is a convenience.

    Who do you follow? Mark 6:14-44 Introduction - Jesus is demonstrated in this book as a “servant” -- Key verse: Mark 10:45, “For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.” - For us to ...read more

    Guilty! – But – Forgiven!

    Contributed by Bryan Beverly on Aug 5, 2014
     | 14,094 views

    This message uses the story of the woman taken in adultery to teach us that: (1) whether accuser or accused, we are all sinners, and that (2) all of us can find forgiveness in the grace of God through Jesus Christ.

    2Early in the morning He came again to the temple. All the people came to Him and He sat down and began to teach them. 3The scribes and the Pharisees brought a woman who had been caught in adultery; and making her stand before all of them, 4they said to Him, “Teacher, this woman was caught ...read more

    A scarlet thread runs through the Bible teaching this most central truth that there is power in the blood of the Lamb of God. Redemption, forgiveness, sanctification, accessibility, and victory through His blood for those who receive His sovereign grace.

    The Power of the Blood 1 Peter 1:18-23 Many like the French philosopher Voltaire and President John Adams are critical of biblical Christianity calling it a “bloody religion” or "a religion of gore" because of its teachings and emphasis on the power of the blood of the Lord Jesus ...read more

     | 5,745 views

    Many a times we wonder if we can really be restored or is it just a great idea! Tomorrow as we delve into God's Word, we will see what God has already done to reconcile us to Him. The question remains how have we responded to His restoration for us?

     | 4,957 views

    Are we able to defend the faith taught in the Scriptures when a non-believer challenges us on the hard issues? What do we say, how do we respond when asked why the Lord allows evil and the resulting suffering?
