All We Like Sheep Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 26, 2022

We, as Christians, can go astray like sheep. Sin keeps zapping us like an electric fence, but we eventually become numb to it and cross over to enter the dangers of the world. The Shepherd will then react. So, how will He react?

To begin this evening’s message, I would like to share a verse from the Old Testament. Isaiah 53:6 says, “All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned, every one, to his own way; and the Lord has laid on Him the iniquity of us all.” All of us have gone astray from God at some point in our ...read more

The Source Of Our Temptation Series

Contributed by Daniel Teberian on Mar 12, 2023

What causes us to be tempted? Where do we get our desire to do that which the Lord has commanded us not to do? James explains the way we are tempted, where our temptation comes from, and where our temptation leads us.

Let no one say when he is tempted, “I am being tempted by God,” for God cannot be tempted with evil, and he himself tempts no one. But each person is tempted when he is lured and enticed by his own desire. Then desire when it has conceived gives birth to sin, and sin when it is fully grown brings ...read more

Ressurection Victory

Contributed by Jeffrey Dillinger on Apr 11, 2023

Because of the resurrection of Jesus we have victory over sin and the joy of living for eternity. The resurrection is central to the Christian faith, yet, on that day the believers didn't believe and the unbelievers faced truth.

A truth that enemies feared more than followers believed. The same people that went to Pilate to seek him to put Jesus to death, ...read more
