    Jesus bore the curse of the law so we wouldn’t have to.

    I want to make a point as we begin today – and that is that there is often more than one way to do some things. The following test is used by Anderson consulting to see if people are qualified to be a “professional.” There are only 4 questions. See how you do… 1. How do ...read more

    We can either trust in the Lord to give us the clean, fresh robes of righteousness, or we can put our selves through the wringer, in attempt to create our own self-righteousness and still be clothed in filthy rags.

    ONCE MORE THROUGH THE WRINGER I can still remember a little the old wringer type washing machine that my mother used to have when I was a child. I know, most of you would wonder how anyone could remember that far back. Wasn’t that before the days of radio? No, it wasn’t that far back, but it ...read more

    This is a description of the fall and redemption; of God’s answer to win back our trust after we’ve learned to despise Him.

    I was up in my bedroom one evening with the new knife that my parents had entrusted with, and I was cutting a cardboard box. All of a sudden the knife slipped, and I stabbed myself in the leg. Oh no! I’m cut I thought to myself, and our family was just getting ready to leave the house for a ...read more

    Incapable, Yet Faithful Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jun 28, 2017
     | 13,209 views

    When it comes to reaping a harvest, we are very limited in what we have control over. All we can do is plant the seed, share the Gospel, but the harvest rests in the Lord's hands. We are not called to produce life, but sow the seed that leads to life.

    Incapable, yet Faithful Mark 4: 26-29 Our text today once again deals with sowing and harvest. While the sower must put forth sufficient effort in preparing the soil and sowing the seed, he has no control over the harvest. He can faithfully cultivate the ground, keeping the field free of weeds ...read more

    The Guaranteed Return

     | 2,650 views

    Some investments give good returns. Others completely fail. Is there any investment which gives a guaranteed return? Yes, there is.

    I expect some of us invest money, maybe in property or in shares in companies. Perhaps some of us ‘invest’ in other ways. We invest in our future by studying and passing exams. We invest time in people. When we invest, we hope for a return. What do you suppose is the best investment of all? ...read more

    An indepth look at what it means to be the body of Christ. If He is the head of the body, the foundation of the kingdom, then we are simply body parts, cells, bricks. What does it mean to be an armpit?
