     | 6,817 views

    Though Joseph's brothers intended to harm him, God intended to work through their actions for good. Ultimately this truth allowed Joseph to forgive his brothers. Forgiveness may sometimes be a decision we have to make but we can do so trusting that God will work good through it.

    Peter’s words to slaves in the first century are relevant to our world in the twenty-first.

    I suspect that a number of you have heard the old story of the young man who was desperately seeking God’s guidance for some crucial issue in his life. For some reason he decided that the best way forward might be simply to allow his Bible to fall open randomly and then follow the wisdom of ...read more

    Why did God direct the children in the wilderness to wear long fringes and blue ribbons?

    INTRODUCTION The children of Israel were wandering in the wilderness because of their unbelief.

    based on 74 ratings
     | 4,022 views

    I have often been asked by christians "why if the Bible doesn’t mention smoking, how can it be wrong" I believe this message answers those questions.

    What’s Wrong With A Christian Who Smokes? Text (1Cor. 3:16-17) (A) Would Jesus Smoke? Honestly can you imagine Jesus inhaling a cigarette? Can you picture the Lord blowing smoke in your face? NO! Jesus is our example of what a Christian should be. (ILL) My great-grandmother used to say, "If God ...read more

     | 5,878 views

    The man born blind was trapped in the fog from birth. Until the light of Christ illuminates us, we too are trapped in the fog from birth.

    “Trapped in the FOG” Introduction: Today we are introduced to a man who’s name could very well be “Mr. Born Blind.” Born Blind is a strange mixture of words in the believer’s community.

    The real joy of the anointed lies in the fact that his name is written in the book of life and not in the level of the anointing or the ministerial achievements.

    Having been sent out by Jesus after giving them power, the seventy returned full of joy because they were able to perform unusual signs and wonders including casting out demons (Luke10:17). It was a fantastic ministerial feat that was worth celebrating - common men doing the ...read more

    Weeping About The Future

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Sep 2, 2015
     | 9,132 views

    Our job as Christians is to tell people about God and to try to lead them to Christ. Sometimes it means steering them to redemption. Do we actually reach out to them with this in mind? Do we seek a radical change in their hearts? Do we warn people?

    The Book of Jeremiah is a book full of dark prophecies of doom and gloom. Jeremiah is a heartbroken prophet with a heartbreaking message. The people of Israel had forgotten God and refused to listen for his voice. They were locked into their old way of doing things. We are the same. Sometimes ...read more
