Focused On The Faith Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Nov 16, 2016

Paul exhorted the church to rejoice in the Lord, even though they faced adversity, and avoid false teaching. He also emphasized that works were not enough to secure salvation. If they remained focused on the faith, they could overcome in Christ.

Focused on the Faith Philippians 3: 1-6 As we begin to discuss the third chapter of Philippians, it appears that Paul is seeking to begin concluding his thoughts to the church.

Unbelief And Faith

Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Apr 8, 2017

What does unanswered prayer say about our level of faith? Many of us believe we're walking in more faith than we really are.

A couple of years ago I came face to face with a very sobering and heart-wrenching revelation: my faith was not where I thought it was. But I didn’t know that until “I didn’t see” the faith results I was seeking. I had convinced myself that my faith was at a place where it was not. A very dear ...read more

A Sturdy Faith?

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jun 12, 2018

We put too much faith in our ability to ‘get up enough faith’ (whatever that may mean), rather than placing our trust in the Lord. Do you see the difference? One focuses on US, the other on HIM.

A STURDY FAITH? Psalm 125.

Or, ‘she trusts so entirely upon the LORD’. But Jesus, whilst He gently rebukes His ...read more

It is easy to walk by faith when all is well, but it is an entirely different situation when we face adversity and an ...read more
