Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Mar 6, 2025

The pursuit of peace, doing good and pursuing it relates to departing from evil. The Lord hears ALL the cries of His righteous ones. Wickedness will never stand before God, but the righteous, he delivers from troubles.

PSALM 34:14-17 - PART 6 - THE PURSUIT OF PEACE; THE RIGHTEOUS AND THE WICKED In our previous study of this psalm we began verse 14 but we only did the first half of the verse that spoke about departing from evil and going good. Today we continue with verse 14. Let us look at it again. ...read more

The Book Of Lamentations – Part 33 – The Most Horrible Conditions Caused Through Starvation - Chapter 4:8-11 Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Aug 7, 2025

For some they will find this section of Lamentations distasteful but it is scripture and must not be ignored. It speaks of the effects of starvation, and women boiling their children. We MUST understand what is behind all that and I address that issue. Try to read and meditate.

Sermon # 3 - Let Your Light Shine Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on May 24, 2024

As believers in the Lord Jesus we are called to keep our lamps burning bright so that those around us who are still in the darkness of sin and unbelief can come into the light. The question is, “Is are our lamps shining bright for the Lord or are we hiding our lamps?

It is recorded in Mark 4:21, Jesus said to them, "Does anyone bring a lamp into a room to put it under a basket or under a bed? Isn't it put on a lamp stand? (GW) As we meditate on the questions Jesus asked while here on earth, we realize that these questions were asked to help people ...read more

"jesus" - More Than A Name

Contributed by Derek Geldart on Oct 25, 2020

The following sermon on Colossians 1:15-20 is going to examine Apostle Paul’s response to a heresy that broke out in Colossae concerning Christ’s identity in hope that we might come to associate the name “Jesus’” as the second person of the Godhead.

When God Disrupts Our Plans And Interrupts Our Life

Contributed by Melvin Maughmer, Jr. on Oct 3, 2022

There is an old saying that goes “If you want to make God laugh then tell Him your plans”. Well let me just say God is not maliciously sitting on the throne in heaven laughing at every plan we make. The Bible says in Proverbs 16:9 “A man’s heart deviseth his way but the Lord directeth his steps”.

Consider Jesus

Contributed by John Newton on Feb 13, 2022

A look at Jesus, as High Priest, Son Of God and “Sent One”

As he drew to the conclusion of his gospel the aged apostle John reflected, “Jesus did many other things as well. If every one of them were written down, I suppose that even the whole world would not have room for the books that would be written.” It was a common characteristic of those early ...read more

Sermon # 25 - God's Wondrous Works Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Mar 2, 2023

Often our hectic schedules hinder us from spending time with God, and growing in our relationship with Him. This sermon will help us remember the wondrous works of God, and set our priorities straight.

We live in a day when everyone has such busy schedules that it has become a huge struggle for many to set aside time for things pertaining to God.

The Good Soldier-1(2025)

The Devil Is A Boring Preacher

Contributed by Michael Stark on Jun 23, 2009

The message of the preacher blessed by God will disturb the casual, even as it glorifies the Master. Contrary to every expectation, the message presented by the servants of the devil is boring, generating no excitement and no reaction.

“When they had passed through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where there was a synagogue of the Jews. And Paul went in, as was his custom, and on three Sabbath days he reasoned with them from the Scriptures, explaining and proving that it was necessary for the Christ to ...read more

The Jews, The Law And God Series

Contributed by Chris Appleby on Mar 4, 2002

Jews have an advantage in that they have God’s law in written form and were the first to receive God’s grace but it doesn’t help since they’re unable to keep the law.

There is no doubt in Paul’s mind as he writes to the Church at Rome, that the Jews are pre-eminent in God’s sight. He makes it clear in 1:16 that the gospel is the power of God for salvation to everyone who has faith, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. Mind you he uses the same hierarchy in ch ...read more
