    The Gospel Of Might Series

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on May 4, 2022
     | 1,638 views

    The arrest of Jesus puts a spotlight on the "Gospel of Might" versus the "Gospel of Jesus." What are the differences? And how does the backward stumbling that's described there sum it all up?

    THE GOSPEL OF MIGHT: By all outward indications, Jesus is in a losing situation. - John 18:1-11. - Pieces of this outward situation: a. Jesus has a betrayer with inside information. - John 18:2. b. Jesus is in an enclosed area. - John 18:1. - It’s an olive grove and they went “into it,” so ...read more

    In this final dialogue in the Upper Room, Jesus tells the disciples something of what His kingship is about. The passage before us describes the rivalry between the disciples & the contrasting servant role of Jesus.

    The purposes of church government are to organize the ministries of the church, maintain doctrinal purity, and to promote the mission of the Church

    The First Deacons are Appointed Acts 6:1-7 Before we look into how we should understand this text, it is helpful to review the challenges to the unity of the church we have already uncovered.

    The Reason We Submit To Authority Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Dec 15, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,917 views

    Obedience that originates from this kind of fear of penalty is not true obedience. That is the reason why the apostle Paul exhorts us in Romans 13:5, that our obedience must stem from our conscience and not because we fear the consequences of disobedience.

    The Reason We Submit to Authority In Romans 13:5 we read, “We must obey therefore, not only in order to escape punishment, but also for conscience' sake.” (WNT) All of us are familiar with the principle that if we don’t obey rules and submit to those in authority, we will get punished, and ...read more

    We have all done our share of boasting. We generally start this bad habit of boasting when we are a child.

    Illus: Three boys are in the school yard bragging of how great their fathers are. • The first one says: "My father runs the fastest. He can fire an arrow and start to run, and he gets to the target before the arrow." • The second one says: "Ha! You think that's fast! My father ...read more

    Why Being Good Matters Series

     | 2,676 views

    We must be vigilant and fight against gratifying ourselves in opposition to the will of God.

    Today, I want to talk about “Why Being Good Matters.” And I want to express it in such a way that rebels who repent of their sins have hope. We want to examine our purpose in living against the backdrop of life itself. Not a sanitized view of life that we find in an ivory tower, stained glass ...read more

    Faith In Your Relationships

    I think that the problem is not with what people believe; the problem is that too many of us don't live what we claim to believe.

    Belief in God is pretty strong among Americans. A survey shows that 53% say that they know God exists and they have no doubts. 18% say that they believe in God but they still have some doubts. And 4% believe in God just sometimes. Another poll found that more than 68% of Americans identify as ...read more

    Contributed by John Gaston on Feb 19, 2025
     | 1,069 views

    We can settle for survival, sufficiency, or super-abundance. Which would you rather have from God? Are we making our plans only considering what WE can do, or are we making plans considering what GOD can do?

    SURVIVAL, SUFFICIENCY, OR SUPER-ABUNDANCE? John 6:5-13 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. A man died and went to heaven. Peter brought him in and guided him down a hallway with 1,000s of clocks on the wall. The hands of the different clocks were moving at different speeds. 2. Peter explained that ...read more

    What Really Matters!

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 25, 2024

    Considering eternity, what one believes is far more important than what one achieves. At the same time, are we also thinking about our neighbors and reaching out to them?
