    The Sixth Commandment: Thou Shall Not Murder! Series

    Contributed by Jeff Taylor on Nov 29, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,245 views

    The Ten Commandments tell us that we should not commit murder. There is a difference between killing and murder. We are watching the death of democracy in America. The womb of the mother should be a sanctuary of hope, not a death chamber. This is the law of God, and it does not change.

    Turn in your Bibles to Exodus 20:13, as we continue our sermon series on the Ten Commandments with this simple statement, "Thou shall do no murder". Say that with me. "Thou shall do no murder". I doubt there are any gangsters or professional hitmen reading this right now. Yet ...read more

    With the Christmas season upon us, we as the Church need to spread the word that Christmas is the time of year where we celebrate the birth of the Messiah. The Christmas story is the story of the virgin birth. It is a story of spiritual warfare. It is the story of Salvation.

    The Christmas story is one of love, grace, mercy and blessing. For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, born of a virgin, laid in a manger, wrapped in swaddling clothes, declared by angels and a new star as being born. Jesus Christ is born! The Gospel has come at last!

God has opened this door to me and has sent me here to preach His Gospel to all the world. Thank you for taking the time to ...read more
