Contributed by Tony Abram on Aug 11, 2019

There is a teaching that the Blood of Jesus is limited in it's power to forgive sins and the power of the devil and past. That we must confess again what God has forgotten. Let me say, when we come to Him, never to remember them again.

Love Without Limits

Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Feb 19, 2017

Jesus challenges the common wisdom of his day, stating God doesn't want us to "love our neighbor and hate our enemy" but to love everyone, including our enemies. This is impossible without the love of God flowing through us.

Matthew 5:43-48 Love without Limits Did you know your body is not designed to carry anger for very long? Now don’t get me wrong: anger is a helpful emotion. It tells you something is terribly wrong. But God designed your body to resolve anger as quickly as possible and to move on. Resentment and ...read more

“when Should We Approach Someone Who Has Offended Us?” Series

Contributed by Dave Mcfadden on Jul 30, 2014

Though we can forgive without ever speaking to the offender about their offense, sometimes, God might lead us to do so.

Reconciliation results with the offended person forgives and the offending person repents. Forgiveness + Repentance = ...read more

Contributed by Robert Sickler on Mar 11, 2013

Hate is a mental condition that harms the mind, body and spirit, which if allowed to remain will also destroy our relationship with God.

Why Are There So Many Hypocrites In Church? Series

Contributed by David Owens on Feb 19, 2013

Many skeptics use Christian hypocrites as an excuse for rejecting Christ. In this sermon, we make the distinction between sinners and hypocrites. Everyone in church is a sinner, but not everyone is a hypocrite.

Contributed by Tony Abram on May 30, 2021

Without the shedding of the blood of Jesus we could not be saved. His blood and His love is the means we can be forgiven and saved. While the liberal church does not want the blood of Jesus spoken and even never sing such as there is power in the Blood of Jesus

The Glory Of Marriage Series

Contributed by David Scudder on Dec 13, 2010
