    Remember Jesus words to us: Unless you become as a child again, you will not inherit the kingdom of heaven! Our Lord does not mean there is anything wrong with maturing in growing up. There is a big difference between being child-like and childish.

    based on 5 ratings
     | 14,532 views

    This is an important sermon, where we will learn the correlation between God’s provision, and his requirement for us to follow his instructions.

    Sole Provider The incentive to trust in God’s provision today, may be more necessary than it has been in a very long time. We are living in difficult days, but if those days cause us to turn more to God, then such difficulties may not be a bad thing, depending of course on the severity of those ...read more

    If God Is With Me, Why Can't I Hear Him? Series

    Contributed by David Henderson on Aug 12, 2012
     | 6,105 views

    I have come to this conclusion. Finding God is only difficult because of us. Not because of Him. God doesn’t want us to be in the dark. God doesn’t want us to wonder what He wants us to do. Think about it this way: if there was something you wanted y

You see it, in the Word of God, you see it in history, and you see it in the stories of your own life. In prayer this week the phrase “the difference was made when…”echoed ...read more

    Is The Bible Reliable?

    Contributed by Jonathan Mcleod on Aug 26, 2008
     | 3,576 views

    Is the Bible reliable, or is it full of errors, contradictions, and myths?

    The Bible is not just one book—it is a collection of dozens of books. Yet all these writings taken together speak with unity and proclaim unmistakably: “People matter to God!” • It was written over 1400 years. • It was written over 40 generations. • It was written by over 40 authors from all walks ...read more

    God’s choice is not unfair because He owes nothing to sinful man. (God still gives insight, concepts and ideas to mankind) God is free from obligation or constraint in bestowing mercy on people. God loves every person on the face of the earth, and He’s wa

    Control Belongs to God Text: Romans 9:14-33 14 Are we saying, then, that God was unfair? Of course not! 15 For God said to Moses, “I will show mercy to anyone I choose, and I will show compassion to anyone I choose.”16 So it is God who decides to show mercy. We can neither choose it ...read more

    So many times, we look at the end result of our purpose rather than the journey we must travel to accomplish that purpose. We must constantly give God our best so that He can use that best for His Plan, Purpose and Promise.

    INTRODUCTION A. GOD’S ENVISIONED VISION FOR NHBC! As I strive to become who God desires me to be, I learn more of what Paul meant when he said, “we live by faith and not by sight”.
