The Whole Armor Of God: An Exposition Of Ephesians 6:10-20

Contributed by Mark A. Barber on Aug 17, 2021

We need to fight the Christian warfare with the armaments God has provided us, to use these skillfully, and to use these as a unit.

The Whole Armor of God: An Exposition of Ephesians 6:10-20 This morning’s passage has been the source of many a commentary, some of which are very detailed. It has also been part of many Vacation Bible Schools. I can think of children donning plastic suits of armor or coloring the Christian ...read more

The Salt Of The Earth Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Sep 2, 2021

Jesus addressed the need for all believers to serve as the salt of the earth and light to this dark world. We will discover as we move through these verses both are necessary and much needed in our day. Each of these elements has a distinct and profound effect on their surroundings.

The Salt of the Earth Matthew 5: 13 We have spent a considerable amount of time dealing with the portion of the Sermon on the Mount known as the Beatitudes. I think you would agree those verses were a challenging and insightful study. As our Lord concluded His thoughts concerning the beatitudes, ...read more

The Unstoppable Move Of God Series

Contributed by Christian Cheong on May 16, 2021

Although Paul was bound under house arrest, the Gospel wasn't. God used Paul's situation in Rome to reach out to the Jewish leaders, the guards, and the believers in Rome and other places through his writings over the two years. God's work cannot be bound.

The Peril Of False Prophets (Part 1) Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Apr 13, 2022

Satan doesn’t mind the church gathering together as long as we don’t share the truth of the gospel. He doesn’t mind preaching as long as it doesn’t reveal the depravity of humanity and the salvation available through Christ our Lord.

The Peril of False Prophets (Part 1) Matthew 7: 15-20 As I studied this passage, I was reminded of the relevance of Scripture for every generation. 2 Tim.3:16 – All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in ...read more

Content And Container Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 26, 2022

This message looks at the cup (container) and the wine (content). The wine is still wine, no matter what container it’s in. Today's culture has a new cup; yet the content (gospel message) in the container can still be the same.

How many of you have a favorite glass that you prefer to drink out of? I do. For example, when I drink coffee I like to have a really big cup. My wife, on the other hand, likes to have a little dainty china cup, with a handle just big enough to fit her finger through. Ask either one of us to ...read more

The Lord Is Good

Contributed by Mark Armstrong on Jan 6, 2019

A short sermon for a funeral service. I wrote this talk for the funeral of a Christian person.

In Nahum 1.7—a book in the Bible not often heard—the prophet Nahum says, “The LORD is good, a refuge in times of trouble. He cares for those who trust in him” (Nahum 1:7). It may seem counter-intuitive to consider this verse at a funeral when death is clearly on our minds. How can we say that the ...read more
