    The Sin And Danger Of Backbiting

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Jul 15, 2025
     | 213 views

    Backbiting is more than idle talk — it is a dangerous sin with destructive power. It violates the law of love, damages unity, and brings divine judgment. God desires a church where people speak the truth in love, build one another up, and refuse to speak evil in secret.

    THE SIN AND DANGER OF BACKBITING By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Psalm 15:1-3 Supporting Texts: Proverbs 16:28, James 4:11, Romans 1:29-30, Leviticus 19:16 INTRODUCTION: Backbiting is one of the most subtle yet destructive sins within the body of Christ.

    Heaven Is A World Of Love Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 4, 2021
     | 3,663 views

    Whenever Christians are full of envy and strife, it obscures the evidence of heaven. The clouds of hatred darken the evidence of Heaven’s love for us.

    Let a man do whatever religious thing he wishes, it means nothing without love. Love is the greatest of God’s gifts. Love is deeper than emotions. Love is the God-given proof that you are Christ’s disciples (John 13:35). This is a message about the future but it is also a map for the present. Since ...read more

     | 7,015 views

    The unity of followers is one of the most important - and yet problematic - charisteristics of the disciples. Jesus prayed for it the last night he would be with his chosen disciples. Yet since then the church has been characterized in the eyes of the world as riddled with division and strife.
