    Even in areas where we are confident, we are completely vulnerable. Our only real security comes through a relationship with God through Jesus Christ.

    Helpless With What We Do Best (Mark 4:35-41) 1. Applying for a job today is a science. Here are a few bloopers from job applications and resumes. • Application: How large was the department you worked in with your last company? “A: 3 stories.” • A resume listed a skill ...read more

    I received an anonymous note in the offering. The note questioned the vision and mission of the church. This sermon answers questions raised in the note as well as looking at God's design for the church.

    God’s Blueprint for Ministry Slide I received an anonymous note in offering. It read: Let's serve our community, not just do a food pantry. Make good decisions by voting and including members. Losing people lately, it's noticeable. The Family Fun Fest will not gain new people, it ...read more

    The Importance Of Authority

    Contributed by Revd. Martin Dale on Sep 30, 2017
    based on 1 rating
     | 7,068 views

    If we recognise Jesus's authority as divine, then we are forced to listen to Him and allow him to impact our lives. If Jesus is the Word of God and the Scriptures are also the Word of God, then we need allow Scripture to impact our lives too.

    Authority. Our passage this morning is all about authority. We live in a society in which authority is very important but which is being challenged. We see anarchy is around us too. Even law enforcers like the police need authority to enter your house. Otherwise any evidence found without the ...read more

    The Existence And Presence Of Almighty God", Part 3

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Apr 27, 2023
     | 1,184 views

    One of the major arguments (proofs) for the existence of God is based upon moral standards, defined as the concept of right and wrong, good and evil, ethics and emotions that are in our consciences and have guided civilizations throughout history.

    The job of a follower of the Lord Jesus Christ is not only share the Gospel, but also to make all non-believers uncomfortable in their assumptions. As mentioned in a previous sermon, uncomfortable atheists and skeptics use what they consider to be a sure-fire weapon guaranteed to confound and ...read more

    As citizens of the Kingdom of God our Christlike character is vital as a witness to his grace for His glory.

    Titus 3:1-11 KJV Put them in mind to be subject to principalities and powers, to obey magistrates, to be ready to every good work, 2 To speak evil of no man, to be no brawlers, but gentle, shewing all meekness unto all men. 3 For we ourselves also were sometimes foolish, disobedient, deceived, ...read more

    Private Jets

     | 541 views

    If Jesus rode in a "tube of demons" they would be cast out and people saved. You can fly economy and witness.

    The topic was should pastors have private jets? My thoughts. Brother, the average Christian is not drawing negative attention to them buying a car. All I ever heard when I first got saved was that all preachers are in it for the money. I have striven to never have that said of me. I have most ...read more

    Obedience Is Better Than Sacrifice Series

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Jul 5, 2025
     | 699 views

    Obedience is the foundation of spiritual authority and divine favour. God does not accept substitutes for obedience—sacrifice, talent, position, or charisma cannot replace a heart yielded to Him.

Samuel Arimoro Main Text: 1 Samuel 15:1-23 Supporting Texts: Deuteronomy 28:1-2, Proverbs 21:3, John 14:15, Isaiah 1:19-20, Hebrews 10:5-9 INTRODUCTION: God places a high premium on obedience.

    The shortcut many seek often ends in destruction. Therefore, every believer must understand that eternal life is accessed through the prescribed path of holiness, truth, and unwavering faith in Christ.

    We Must Not Do Evil That Good May Come

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Jul 23, 2025
     | 107 views

    Paul strongly refutes this error in Romans 3:8. The idea that one can do wrong with the hope that good will result is not only unscriptural but damnable.

    WE MUST NOT DO EVIL THAT GOOD MAY COME By Rev.
