    We enter the Kingdom through trials. This is pictured in the Gates of Pearl of New Jerusalem. Pearls are the result of irritation and the secreting of a grace-like substance that transforms the irritation into a pearl. Paradise is entered by trials!

    Out Of The Depths I Cried

     | 11,154 views

    Discouragement is part of life. Discouragement comes most often when you do right things but experience poor results. You work hard, but you don't make progress. You have expectations and goals and they don’t come to pass. You seek change and yet nothing changes.

    “Out of the Depths I cried” By Bishop Melvin L. Maughmer, Jr. When we think of Depth we think of the distance from the top or surface to the bottom of something. It is used to specify the distance below the top or surface of something to which someone or something percolates or at which ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 2,279 views

    Demetrius “Smith” represents someone whose judgement is clouded by selfish desires. Alexander "Smith" represents someone who doesn't want to be alone in his sin; who makes it a point to cause other Christians to stumble.

    I’ve entitled our message for this evening, “The Smiths.” Have you heard about the Smiths? Take for instance Zipporah Smith. “Who’s that?” you may say. Well, her husband, Moses, was used by God to deliver the Israelites from their bondage in Egypt. You see, Zipporah was a Kenite, and the word ...read more

     | 1,600 views

    In the first message, I preached on having a Happy Church. We saw that the first thing we have to do is recognize the purpose of the church.

    WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF THE CHURCH? Many folks have many different ideas about what the purpose of the church is. For example: (1) Some seem to think the purpose of the church is for us to come together and see if we can build a more beautiful church building than the church down the ...read more

     | 2,483 views

    Experiencing rejection is a normal part of life. It happens to all of us. How could a single Palm Sunday Celebration cause the religious leaders to be jealous, and envious of Jesus? What causes men to reject him?

    Sermon: Rejecting Jesus Instead of Handling Him with Care Scripture: Luke 20:9-20 “Now Jesus turned to the people again and told them this story: “A man planted a vineyard, leased it to tenant farmers, and moved to another country to live for several years. 10 At the time of the grape harvest, he ...read more

    Sixth Commandment (6 Of 12)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 14, 2022
     | 1,334 views

    This is the shortest of all of the commandments and so simple that even a small child could understand it. However, in our society today this simple commandment is misunderstood by some.

    For example, some carry this so far as to apply "Thou shalt not kill” to the killing of insects. Illus: Let me ask you something, if I see a fly on the table and I walk into the other room, get the fly swat, and carefully walk back to where the fly is, raise the fly swat in such a way as ...read more

    Isaiah 66:13 parallels the kind of help that God gives to the consolation and comfort that a mother gives to her children. ...... God provides for us beyond what we are able to fully comprehend! Comfort involves compassion, encouragement and sympathy.

     | 4,804 views

    If we want to possess new territory for the Lord and win the land for Christ, and also leave behind an ever-increasing legacy of faith, then we must bless those whom we are leading so they can go and claim the Promised Land.

    In an earlier message, when I spoke about the importance of casting a vision, I briefly touched on the topic of blessing. When we begin claiming new territory for the Lord, and as we invite others to join us to do the same, blessing is a vital component in keeping people motivated to continue ...read more
