    Jude’s Warning (Part 1) Series

    Contributed by T.j. Conwell on Jan 21, 2016
     | 7,193 views

    Jude's first desire was to write a friendly letter to encourage the church, but instead God pressed on Him to write one of conviction and dire warning to all. As Christians, we must be willing to use this example to share God's word truthfully as well!

    Jude’s Warning (Part 1) Jude 1-7 Introduction - Tonight we will begin to examine the book of Jude - Show of hands … be honest, who has ever read this book before? - It is unknown who this letter is written to --Probably written around 70 to 80 AD, to an early church for sure -- ...read more

    Living In God's Abundance Or Walking Dead?

    Contributed by Daniel Chapman on Feb 2, 2016
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,712 views

    Romans 8:11 Offers us more than the image of A spirit living in us. We see that God through His resurrection power desires to place His life-giving Spirit, that raised Christ from the dead in us!

    THE FULLNESS OF LIFE (OR THE WALKING DEAD)? Point 1A Romans 8:11 (KJV) 11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you. Today I offer you a choice. Do you ...read more

    Meanwhile, Behind The Walls … Series

    Contributed by T.j. Conwell on Mar 1, 2016
     | 8,387 views

    Many of us are challenged with resolving conflicts and still honoring God. In his life, even as the governor of Jerusalem charged with helping the people, Nehemiah still ONLY wanted God’s approval … is that what we desire also?

    Meanwhile, behind the walls … Nehemiah 5:1-19 Introduction - Nehemiah is a great study of leadership, but also shows obedience to God - Last week we saw Nehemiah establishing a watch while they worked -- This put the people on guard to protect them from the enemy -- But also let the ...read more

    Father Why Am I Not Receiving From You The Things You Promised?

    Contributed by Gordon Mcculloch on Feb 4, 2014
     | 3,909 views

    If we desired the things of God, then we would not need to ask him for them for them. He would give them to us automatically, and we would not need to ask Him for the grace to receive them. Confused, read on and enjoy …

    Word Count: 1976 Deuteronomy 26:1-11 Psalm 91:1-2, 9-16 Romans 10:8b-13 Luke 4:1-13 Summary: If we desired the things of God, then we would not need to ask him for them for them.

    Learning From Our Conflicts Series

    Contributed by Manny Salva Cruz on Nov 16, 2015
     | 6,166 views

    In this message, we will learn that the heart is the source of all evil desires, conflicts, rivalries, and all selfish ambitions. When we resolve the root cause of the conflict, we can solve the problem. Only Christ can transform our hearts.

    Wars and conflicts are everywhere especially clearer when you read the online newspapers. There is conflict among nations, among races, among politicians, even among religious beliefs. Those conflicts are rooted to so much hatred, antagonism, bitterness and hostilities. In addition, hot tempered ...read more

    "Stephen: A Heart Of Commitment" Series

    Contributed by David Henderson on Dec 22, 2015
     | 8,394 views

    One of the things that are clear as you look at the gospels is that popularity can be costly. Most of us if we would admit it, certainly desire to have it. But we sometimes don’t realize what it can cost us.

    HEARTBEATS “Stephen: A heart of Commitment” Acts 6:8-15 and 8:54-60 One of the things that are clear as you look at the gospels is that popularity can be costly. Most of us if we would admit it, certainly desire to have it. But we sometimes don’t realize what it can cost us. ...read more

    God has good news for us. He has given us the greatest gift that can be given. He has called us to the greatest life that can be lived. He has supplied us with the greatest hope that can be desired.

    12/21/2014 Reading: Isaiah 11:1-9 Text: Luke 2:8-20 Don't you love a good story? If there ever was a story that has been embellished with traditions and celebrations this one takes the cake. The story of Jesus birth. Last week we looked at Isaiah 9 where the prophet ...read more

    Enduring Temptation And Overcoming Sin

    Contributed by Bishop Prof. Julius Soyinka on May 18, 2018
    based on 1 rating
     | 16,508 views

    Temptation is the enticement of our natural, God-given desires to go beyond God-given bounds. We can blame our failure to resist temptation on others, Satan, or God Himself, but in reality, we are the ones who choose to indulge.

    ENDURING TEMPTATION AND OVERCOMING SIN Study Text: James 1: 12 – 16 Introduction: - One of the greatest challenges of living the Christian life is dealing with temptations. This is especially true for new Christians: For it can be frustrating to know that your sins have been forgiven, only to ...read more

    Opening Our Eyes To God’s Glory

     | 16,549 views

    The transfiguration reveals that Jesus is powerful (he is God!), primary (he must come first), personable (he cares about us), and passionate (he desires all to be saved). God wants us, like the disciples present, to "listen to him!"

    Matthew 17:1-9 Opening Our Eyes to God’s Glory Do you ever get the sense that you take God for granted? Some of us grew up in homes where going to Sunday worship was expected of us. We grew up always knowing the love of God from an early age. And perhaps we’re spoiled a little. We don’t remember ...read more

    Contributed by T.j. Conwell on Nov 28, 2017
     | 9,673 views

    Do we delight in what God offers; in what living for Him does for us? David knew that God provided everything … are we committed like this as well? Do we desire to see Him in every facet of our life?

    A Study of Psalm 26 and 27 Psalm 26 and 27 Introduction - Psalms broken into 5 books, covered an extensive time period - Gathered together as songs of praise & words of encouragement/warning - We are studying book 1, Psalm 1-41 … Info: we’ll take break for Advent - The Psalms have already given ...read more

    The Hope Of Christmas

    Contributed by David Radcliff on Nov 30, 2017
    based on 4 ratings
     | 22,379 views

    Man’s hope is usually built on what we expect, want, or desire to happen. But the Bible never allows the Child of God to build our hope on the likes of Man, but we are allowed to build our hope on the immutability of God Himself.

    THE HOPE OF CHRISTMAS Isaiah 9:6, 7 Isaiah 9:6,7 is a prophecy of the coming Messiah, Jesus Christ. At the time Isaiah prophesied these words only darkness, gloom, and despair appeared to lay in store for the Nation of Israel. Darkness as black as night prevailed upon the land through the sin of ...read more

    The Church Of The New Testament - Part 5 Series

    Contributed by Sam Mccormick on Feb 13, 2018
     | 27,871 views

    It is vitally important in those matters on which God directs the actions of man, to know, upon what authority anyone presumes to know God’s desires and commandments, and to express them to others. What authority did the earliest Christians recognize?

    This 13-part series of classes has been many years in the making. About 25 years ago I began in earnest to examine the features, character and characteristics of the church as it existed in its earliest years. As I sometimes do, I kept my notes all along the way, and this series of classes is to a ...read more

     | 10,370 views

    To be new in Christ means to "Quit" being "of the world." What are you "quitting" today? Those who take this message to heart and begin enacting some of these principles, will begin see the breakthrough they’ve been needing, wanting, and desiring.

    While I was preparing to write the message for today, the Holy Spirit asked me, “Where are my people getting their milk from?” As I began writing the first words, the Holy Spirit asked me again, “Where are my people getting their milk from?” With each word I wrote, the question became more ...read more

    You Ask A Hard Thing?

    Contributed by Wade Martin Hughes, Sr on Jun 12, 2019
     | 7,621 views

    Do we seek the DOUBLE PORTION of God's Spirit? What does the double portion cost? We must consider the lesson of settling for less than the best? Temporal or Eternal? Do we desire the MANTLE OF GOD?

    YOU ASK A HARD THING! THE MANTLE!

    Lesson #19 [id3b] The Encouragement Toward Maturity Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Oct 21, 2020
     | 2,713 views

    No one can escape coming into the world as a baby because that is the only way to get here! But it is tragic when a baby fails to mature. No matter how much parents and grandparents love to cuddle and hold a baby, it is their greater desire that the baby matures.

    2/1/20 Tom Lowe Lesson #19 [ID3b] The Encouragement toward Maturity (Hebrews 6:1-3) Scripture: Hebrews 6:1-3 (NIV) 1. Therefore let us move beyond the elementary teachings about Christ and be taken forward to maturity, not laying again the foundation of repentance from acts that lead to death ...read more
