    After Camping, We Should Shut Up About The Rapture, Right?

    Contributed by Jim Bennett on May 22, 2011
    based on 3 ratings
     | 3,437 views

    A May 22, 2011 response to the false teachings of Harold Camping with regard to May 21, 2011 explaining that Christians need to declare the truths of Christ's return more enthusiastically than ever.

    Because of the intense scrutiny brought upon the person and people of Jesus Christ by a false prophecy, I believe the Spirit of God has led me to give address the truth of Jesus Christ’s promised return for His bride. Jesus Christ didn’t return yesterday. There was no rapture. Jesus ...read more

    Using Judah in the Old Testament as an example, this message explains how God's people are to live as "aliens" in this world while we await the return of Christ and eternity in our true, eternal kingdom.

    Parable Of The Unjust Steward

    Contributed by Curtis E. Nester on Sep 19, 2016
     | 7,198 views

    A puzzling parable which is actually explains itself when we read it carefully. The contrast between the children of the world and Christians in the way they manage what is entrusted to them. Our accountability to God.

He said to his wife, "You know, dear, I think we ought to give one of these calves to the Lord. We will raise one for ourselves and give one to the Lord who has ...read more

    Contributed by Patrick Usifo on Sep 7, 2017
     | 9,642 views

    No man has the capacity to choose God. And none can explain why God makes choices in the first place. It follows that He must choose those that will show His praise and glory.

    Chosen of God Text: Ephesian 1:1-4 Who can explain Christianity? Any man that claims to have the answer is grossly mistaken. Christianity that can be explained is not real but lacking the substance of truth. Christianity has a depth and height that no man can fathom. Moreover, today’s sermon is ...read more

    What Is A Christian?

     | 5,723 views

    I remember hearing a story of a young boy asking his father what is a Christian? After the father explained, the young boy asked, “Dad have I ever seen a Christian?”

    The word Christian is a very loose term; at least we use it very loosely, and it has become, in America, a meaningless term. To some, it means anybody living in the United States, and is not Jewish. The term Christian has been so abused and diluted that it has very little meaning to most of us ...read more
