    A sermon examining Jesus' letter to the Church at Smyrna.

    THE LETTER TO THE CHURCH AT SMYRNA Revelation 2:8-11 Throughout my time in the ministry I have struggled when preaching on passages that speak of Christian persecution.

    It is worth it to live in Christ’s presence and live out His presence even if it means persecution.

    Scooter…Harley (both on stage). Many of us would like to believe that there is really little difference between a scooter and a Harley. Both of them are shiny, have wheels and handle bars. Both of them can be used for transportation. You can get somewhere on both of them. But let’s be honest. ...read more

    In spite of a very hostile culture and severe persecution of Christians, Jesus identified ones who overcame in the tribulation. These are found faithful despite persecution. They are called by Jesus overcomers. Who are these overcomers and what are the keys to victory?

    There is a battle going on in the world, struggle for worship, Satan’s goal to hinder love, to undermine loyalty, trust, and obedience to God’s word and will. the assignment Jesus gives to John, comes at a time when heavy persecution against faith.

     | 1,459 views

    The deepest persecution for Israel is yet to come in the time of the Tribulation. Here we look at the Gog and Magog war and the Battle of Armageddon. In the second half of the Tribulation Israel is heavily persecuted but deliverance comes from God.

    THE SONGS OF ASCENT – PART 12 – PSALM 129 – ISRAEL IS THE MOST PERSECUTED NATION IN HISTORY YET THE LORD IS RIGHTEOUS – PART TWO OF THREE The Psalms or Songs of Ascent were sung by the pilgrims going yearly to Jerusalem for three designated feasts, and as they made their way up the incline to ...read more

    Just days prior to the crucifixion, Jesus spoke to His disciples regarding the events surrounding the end times. While we cannot predict the day, nor the hour, we can see the stage being set for His return! Jesus revealed much for us in this passage.

    Signs of the End (Part 2) Matthew 24: 3-14 In our last study we began to consider what is commonly known as the Olivet Discourse. Just prior to His crucifixion, Jesus spoke at length concerning the events that will lead up to His second coming. Some who hold to an Amillennialist theology believe ...read more

    Some churches are really big on safety these days, providing a safe place for you and the whole family … not that there is really anything wrong with that… but honestly; how safe is this Christian walk?

    Dakota Community Church June 15, 2008 Unsafe for the Whole Family We live in a world that has gone to the extreme where safety is concerned. Everything is labeled for safety. As I write this I glance at my coffee cup which warns me that “the beverage I am about to enjoy is extremely hot” and in ...read more

    The Path to Jerusalem for Jesus contained His Betrayal, His Arrest and His Persecution. Our lives as Christians will also, in some form or another, contain similar Betrayals, possible confinement and most assuredly persecution. Are you up to it?

    The Way: On Trial John 14:1 "Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God ; trust also in me. 2 In my Father’s house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you. 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you ...read more

    Psalm 129 continues with this third message looking at how Israel has faced persecution. The final end for the nation is glorious as the Lord’s heritage is Israel, and Jerusalem is the city of the Great King. This Psalm is very Jewish and after the long years of persecution, blessing will come.

    THE SONGS OF ASCENT – PART 13 – PSALM 129 – ISRAEL IS THE MOST PERSECUTED NATION IN HISTORY YET THE LORD IS RIGHTEOUS – PART THREE OF THREE Psalm 129 focuses on the persecution endured by Israel and in the two previous parts we looked into some of this.

    Motive is what is dealt with, & the church today needs to examine the motive for our ministries. We know what we are doing, but do we know why we are doing it? Many a good work is ruined before God because of a bad motive.

    GALATIANS 6: 11-18 MARKED BY FREEDOM [2 Corinthians 11:18-33] The Holy Spirit inspired Paul to add these closing words to give one more contrast between the legalists & the Spirit-led Christians. The Spirit-led live for the glory of Christ, not the praise of man. Motive is what is dealt ...read more

    As Paul goes through the storm in Acts 27 he is an example of who to go through the storm properly and how to be a blessing to others during the storm.

    Illustration: Test pilots have a litmus test for evaluating problems. When something goes wrong, they ask, "Is this thing still flying?" If the answer is yes, then there’s no immediate danger, no need to overreact. When Apollo 12 took off, the spacecraft was hit by lightning. The entire ...read more

    The Marks Of Maturity

    Contributed by Nigel Heath on Mar 4, 2016

    Only when we can say, 'For me to live is Christ' can we truly say, 'to die is gain'. Spiritual maturity is the outcome of a life truly surrendered to Jesus Christ as Lord.

    INTRO Away back in the 1980’s when I began ministry at Abbeyhill Baptist Church a fellow Minister in the City was faced with a problem. A homeless person had turned up at church and the church did not know what to do with him. Rather than doing nothing this colleague who was the Pastor of ...read more
