    Contributed by Guy Glass on May 5, 2004
    based on 29 ratings
     | 3,708 views

    The body of Christ is linked together by the proclamation of truth, and only as strong as the weakest declaration of truth. The body of Christ faces the same barriers, and struggles, regardless of location, the big difference is not God, it is not the ba

    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,365 views

    We’re told to love our enemies, yet the "Imprecatory Psalms" seem to curse them. How are we to understand what appears to be some troubling, problematic prayers?

    “Psalms of Hate?” Psalm 69:22-28 Pastor Bob Leroe, Cliftondale Congregational Church, Saugus, Massachusetts “Let the bountiful table set before them become a snare and their prosperity become a trap. Let their eyes go blind so they cannot see, and make their bodies shake continually. Pour out ...read more

    The fourth message from the series on Malachi

    “A Clear Call to Faithfulness” Malachi 2:10-16 In our passage today Malachi turns to dealing with the subject of the people’s indifference to the Lord’s will.

    We live in a world that promises if you get a good job in a good company and make good money and get a good house and a good car you’ll be happy. The Bible teaches if you have a good relationship with God you have none of those things and be truly happy.

On day after she did her shopping she returned to the car where she found four white males seated inside. She dropped her shopping ...read more

    Beginning To Sink

    Contributed by Clay Gentry on Aug 19, 2013
     | 7,479 views

    The story of Peter walking on the water and beginning to sink provides excellent lessons for us to prevent us from beginning to sink in the trouble waters of life.

    There are two sights in human life which fill the heart with profound sorrow. The first sight is that of a person who has sunk amid the troubled waters of life. It is the one whose once youthful face is no more because of rough, hard living. It is the person who had a good raising, who wore good ...read more

    The message looks at the Christians need for Generosity.

    The test for many Christians becomes evident in the reaction they display when the topic turns from being Christ-like with our morals to being Christ-like with our money.
