    None of us should become so familiar with God’s grace that we stop searching for it or appreciating it. ­

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Feb 5, 2024
     | 2,011 views

    If you do allow the Holy Spirit to lead your life, then you naturally won’t want to gratify the desires of the flesh. But, if you allow the flesh to lead your life, then you will naturally begin to gratify the desires of the flesh. Live by the Spirit's leading!

    I recall an episode of Star Trek Voyager that always hit me very hard. It was called Timeless. The Voyager was a spaceship that had ended up far, far from home, and it was slowly making it’s way back through unknown territory. It reminds me of us, as Christians, lost in the wilds of this fallen ...read more

    Gimme That Old Time Religion”

     | 4,900 views

    Years ago churches across the nation used to sing that old familiar song, “Gimme that old time religion.”

    Illus: Some of the words that the congregation sang were, “Gimme that Old Time Religion” because they said: • It will do when I am dying, it will do when I am dying. It will do when I am dying, it’s good enough for me. • It will make us read our Bibles, It will make us read our Bibles, It will ...read more

    Many believers come to a point of frustration in their service for the Lord simply because they fail to realise the need to be filled with the Spirit if they are to work and act in God’s power. Just as we cannot save ourselves apart from the work of the H

    based on 4 ratings
     | 12,248 views

    At Pentecost, God enabled Jesus' disciples to do what they could not do on their own. God fulfilled Jesus' promise to spread the gospel to all lands, as the pilgrims heard the good news in thier own language. God calls us, too, to be his witnesses.

    Acts 2:1-21 Drawing on the Power of God A few days after the Thanksgiving holiday of 2016, Eric Heffelmire was working on his GMC truck at his family home in Vienna, Virginia. As he recalls, “I was on my back, face up, and I was trying to get some corroded brake lines when apparently the jack ...read more

    We need to acknowledge the presence of the Holy Spirit and appropriate His power. He is the source of an overflowing life in Christ.

    How The Holy Spirit Can Guide Your New Year

     | 1,592 views

    We are on the cusp of a new year - 2024 - and with that new year comes a multitude of unknowns. Rather than tiptoe into the new year in fear, however, we should stride in with confidence because of the Holy Spirit who walks with us into unknown territory.

    Introduction In our studies we have visited the idea that the Holy Spirit is the answer of the promises of God made throughout the Old Testament, culminating at Pentecost. The Holy Spirit is a divine person. The Holy Spirit is the source of enormous blessings in our life, and we walk daily with ...read more

    Just as Jesus breathed His last, the Bible tells us that curtain of the Temple was torn in two. Witnesses to the Temple tell us that this curtain was as thick as your hand. So the tearing of something so thick and so large was supernatural.

     | 6,386 views

    The identity of the Holy Spirit can be misunderstood at times. This sermon deals with the Holy Spirit identifying himself.

    There seems to be a lot of misunderstanding about the Holy Spirit, who He is, and what his role is. We have a rather clear understanding of God, the Heavenly Father and Jesus, our Savoir. However the Holy Spirit can become controversial in his role. First of all the Holy Spirit is a real person. ...read more
