     | 1,079 views

    God sent His Son, Jesus Christ, to be the Suffering Servant for us. In verse 3, we find He was constantly despised, often rejected, entered into sorrow, experienced grief, and was ignored.

    We have been given authority as believers over the kingdom of darkness. This message exposes the enemy, and helps us to understand our authority.

    Declaring War On The Devil Tonight, I want to talk about the enemy. I believe that if we are to declare war on the devil, we must not only know God, but know who our enemy is. I love history, and I know from just watching many different leaders and generals, who prepare war, that when they ...read more

    Arming Our Children Properly For Life

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jan 30, 2016
     | 3,255 views

    Even the best state schools are hobbled in their abilities to prepare children for life in a world that despises the Gospel of Christ, so we must arm them with Christian values in Christian environments.

    Fourth Sunday in Course Catholic Schools Week 31 January 2016 How is it that the synagogue congregation that in one moment we hear listened to Jesus preaching and saying wonderful things about Him is just ten minutes later ready to run Him out of town and throw Him off a cliff?

    based on 2 ratings
     | 18,834 views

    A woman who was despised by the Jews and the Samaritans finds living water at the well on a hot afternoon. And she becomes an evangelist for the Lord. Intriguing and example-setting yet today for all of us.

    Today, let’s talk about another woman who was saved by the power of Jesus Christ; a woman we have all referred to as “The Woman at the Well.” We find her story in the 4th chapter of the book of JOHN. As we read the Gospels, we see that Jesus’ approach to proclaiming the Good News was decidedly ...read more

    Why would Jesus seemingly praise the Pharisees saying our righteousness should exceed theirs? Why would I need to compare my righteousness to that of men that Jesus despised?

    A man was telling about being a student at the University of Southern California, and he and his friends worked hard to earn their PhDs, because they wanted to be would allowed to hold the coveted title of “doctor”. Then, one day one of their professors told about a friend of his who’d called his ...read more

     | 2,636 views

    This message touches on a very difficult area - the consideration of Sodom and Gomorrah and the conflict between Christians and homosexuality. Placed in context, Jude raises the matter of Sodom because he is concentrating on destruction coming on these false teachers.

REVISION: Jude was in the process of writing about the Christian’s common salvation when it became urgent for him to side-track his letter to address the problem of false teachers moving into church ...read more
