     | 1,744 views

    Wilfulness is sin on a mission and Lot edged closer and closer. The world holds attractions for people, like the fishing spider that dangles a blob on the end of strands of web to allure its victims and pounces. Sodom was alluring Lot and about to pounce.

    Topsy-Turvy

    Contributed by Michael Bates on Jan 21, 2024
     | 1,333 views

    Our society has become very perverse and our moral values are upside down (topsy-turvy). As Christians, we are in the middle of a spiritual war zone fighting daily against evil, sin and perversion. But with God on our side we can win the war and be declared victorious over the forces of darkness.

    Our focal verse for this short sermon comes from Isaiah 5:20 CSB It says, 'woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who substitute darkness for light and light for darkness, who substitute bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter.' During the time when this Bible verse was written, the ...read more

    God’s Kindness, Our Need For Repentance Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on May 5, 2025
     | 439 views

    Romans chapter 2 is a clear warning against judgementalism. God is the true judge, and we need to prepare ourselves for the coming judgment of God and share the love of Christ to others.

    Have you ever heard a Christian describe themselves as one beggar telling the other beggars where he found bread? If you have then good for them. That attitude is so important because we are not to be judgmental, but we should humbly acknowledge we are all sinners. We were saved by grace, and we ...read more

     | 16,054 views

    Of all the things scripture expresses concern about, it is "deception" among God’s crown creation.

    Matthew, Mark and Luke record an interesting verbal interchange between Jesus and His disciples. It concerns the “end of days.” They asked Him, “tell us about the sign of the end.” Jesus’ initial response was almost ominous, “watch that no one deceive you”… Have you ever been deceived?
