    Man Shall Not Live By Bread Alone Matthew 4:1-11 There is no way to overestimate the power of the Word of God. It is a blessing just to read it. In the book of Revelation we are promised a blessing just from reading the book. The most basic essential for any healthy church is a commitment to ...read more

    This sermon declares that faith is the non-negotiable requirement to please God, defining this essential faith as both believing He exists and trusting that He is a good God who rewards those who actively seek Him.

    Eternal Facts About The Christian Faith

    Scripture alone defines and sets in place the essential facts about what it means to be an authentic follower of Jesus Christ. Our opinions, preferences, and feelings have no place in what God has said in HIs Word.

    The Christian who is real builds his life on truth, not superstition or lies. It is impossible to live a life that is truly spiritual by believing lies. That’s why it is essential to get our thinking right about Jesus Christ.
