     | 8,998 views

    As a new creation we are not expected to live as the people of the world does.

    As a new creation in Christ we are not supposed to be like the people that are not yet in Christ. We are called to be separate from the realm of darkness, as a new creation the bible records that we are now a partaker of the kingdom of the Lord Jesus Christ and now live in a kingdom of light not of ...read more

     | 7,862 views

    Pharaoh tried 4 compromises to keep Israel slaves of sin, but Moses said, "We won't leave one hoof behind!" We shouldn't leave one SIN unconquered, one BLESSING unclaimed, or one SOUL unsaved!

    “NOT A HOOF SHALL BE LEFT BEHIND!” Ex. 10:26 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. A family from Houston bought a ranch out in West Texas. Some friends went to see them a month later. They asked, “Have you named your ranch yet?” 2. The father said, “Well, I wanted to call it the “Flying W, but my wife ...read more

     | 2,412 views

    Paul uses the word, “paradise.” It is of Oriental or Persian origin, meaning “the upper reaches of the heavens.” Paul was taken where God and other heavenly beings’ dwell.

    WHAT IS HEAVEN LIKE? TEXT: II COR. 12:2-4 INTRODUCTION: I want to acknowledge Dr. John Barnett as an inspiration for this message, and for stimulating me to my own research on this topic.

    Proclaiming The Good News Rightly Series

    Contributed by Derek Geldart on Feb 17, 2024
     | 3,219 views

    The way one speaks the truth, by which one has been set free, truly matters! When we share the Good News, our intention isn’t to cause harm, provoke anger, instigate conflict, diminish spirits, or condemn others but to tell them that the grace God has given us is being offered to them as well!

    Proclaiming the Good News Righteously 1 Thessalonians 2:1-6 Online Sermon: http://www.mckeesfamily.com/?page_id=3567 For over 2,000 years humanity has been wrestling with how to proclaim the Good News.

    Teachings Of Titus #7

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 24, 2022
     | 2,074 views

    We all understand why Paul wrote to Titus and dealt with relationships in the church.

    This has always been a problem in the church. But when we get to the third chapter of Titus, Paul starts to talk to him about salvation, and this becomes a little confusing. WHY DID PAUL TALK TO TITUS ABOUT SALVATION? Why? Paul wanted to make sure that Titus preached sound doctrine concerning ...read more

    This message looks at how people run from God when He is only trying to rescue them. What are some of the ways in which the Lord pursues the lost? And what happens when He actually catches the person who’s running?

    This morning we are going to look at some words of revelation from the Lord spoken by the prophet Elihu to Job. In Elihu’s words of wisdom, we find a message that can be applied to those who are lost without salvation in Jesus Christ; and I wish to begin this sermon with an illustration: One ...read more

    OBEYING GOD’S WILL IN YOUR LIFE, DOES NOT GUARANTEE A STRESS-FREE, HASSLE-FREE AND TROUBLE-FREE LIFE; ON THE CONTRARY, IT CAN BE UNEASY, TURBULENT AND UNCOMFORTABLE; HOWEVER, GOD WILL NEVER LEAVE YOU NOR FORSAKE YOU.”

     | 1,829 views

    This Plague came from the land, as the two former came from the river. Aaron "smote the dust of the earth, and it became lice (“Kinnim”) in man, and in beast"(ver. 17). This was a new blow at Egyptian idolatry because the earth was worshipped as well as the river.

    The Dust is Turned to Lice (Exodus 8:16-19) Exodus 8:16-19 (NIV) Then the LORD said to Moses, “Tell Aaron, ‘Stretch out your staff and strike the dust of the ground,’ and throughout the land of Egypt, the dust will become gnats.” They did this, and when Aaron stretched out his hand with the staff ...read more

     | 1,028 views

    When the men on the ship realized that Jonah was the cause for their serious predicament they asked him, ‘Why have you done this?’ May we as children of God not do anything that will dishonor God and be a hindrance to those outside the church.

    We read in Jonah 1:10, Then the men were terrified. They knew that he was running away from the LORD, because he had told them. They asked Jonah, "Why have you done this?" (GW) The prophet Jonah who received the word of God to go to Nineveh, disobeyed God, and undertook a voyage on a ...read more
