    Nehemiah's ultimate concern is the remnant of God. He works to rebuild the community of God in Jerusalem. We see the faithfulness of God in keeping a faithful remnant and restoring His people.

    Jerusalem was to be the city of God, where the Name of the Lord dwells. • It wasn’t the physical infrastructure that God was concerned about but the community of His people living in worship of Him and being a witness to the nations. • So the brick and mortar of the city of Jerusalem wasn’t an end ...read more

    Gratitude For The Faithful

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Apr 10, 2019
     | 4,260 views

    Writing to the "elect lady," John was aware of the delicate balance needed to show grace to those who had wronged her while refusing to compromise her convictions and faith. We must love others, but we cannot compromise our faith for the favor of men.

    Gratitude for the Faithful 2 John 1-4 Our text today comes from the second general epistle the apostle John wrote. Along with the gospel that bears his name, and Revelation, John also wrote 1, 2, and 3rd John. It is believed to have been written around AD 85-95, near the end of John’s life. ...read more

    Be Angry Like Jesus Series

    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,438 views

    The Bible does not say, "Don’t be angry." God, instead says, "Be angry and sin not." This message aims to help disciples become like Jesus in what made him angry and how he expressed his anger

    Welcome back to our new series “BE PERFECT”. Last week we look at three God-like characteristics that we are to become: truth-telling, sacrificial service, and love for enemies. They’re humanly unattainable. This is why Jesus gave this not as a rule to the world – but to people ruled by his ...read more

    Is The Church Dead? Series

    Some today proclaim that the church is an archaic thing of the past and that the church Jesus envisioned isn’t anything like church as we know it today. So let’s go back and examine what church is really supposed to be. And it’s all summed up on one word.

    Is the church a thing of the past? So much has been written lately about the demise of the church. Our post modern age seems finished with something so antiquated and old fashioned as the church. In fact, Robert H. Schuller, successor to the Crystal Cathedral said” I think we are entering an era in ...read more

    What God secures for His own eternal pleasure is the greatest answer to the cross of Christ.

    Ephesians ch.2 Paul’s letter to the church at Ephesus contains three wonderful strands of teaching; firstly God’s view of the believers’ exalted position in His presence, secondly, his divinely revealed understanding of the church as Christ’s body and thirdly, how the ...read more

    This passage pictures one of the great lessons of the gospel and that is the evidence of faith. Jesus has just challenged us to open our eyes and look because the fields are white for harvest. Of course, He was talking about witnessing, about sharing th

    Tonight’s passage is a fairly short passage and is really a very simply passage, but it pictures one of the great lessons of the gospel and that is the evidence of faith.

    A Mouth And Heart Matter

    Contributed by Jerry Flury on Nov 11, 2011
    based on 8 ratings
     | 6,249 views

    Jesus Christ taught that the path to heaven was very narrow and very few find it as many misguidedly choose to travel wrong paths. The bottom line is that salvation is a matter of the mouth and heart.

    A Mouth and Heart Matter Romans 10:1-13 The Philippian jailer asked in Acts 16, “What must I do to be saved?” Another way of asking this question is, “How do I get to go to heaven?” When people are asked this question a myriad of answers pour forth. Jesus Christ taught that ...read more
