    We need to contend for the faith because false teachers and non-Christians will try to wear us down so that we give up the faith fight!

    The Horizontal Shift Series

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Sep 19, 2021
     | 2,056 views

    Being a disciple of Jesus Christ demands us to surrender in two directions: vertically toward God and then horizontally to serve fellow citizens of the Kingdom. We cannot choose just one.

    The Horizontal Shift (Romans 12:3-8) 1.A customer walked into my clothing shop and asked to see the pants that were advertised in the paper that day. “We don’t have an ad in the paper today,” I told her. She insisted I was wrong, so I got a copy of the paper, and we went through it, eventually ...read more

    Jesus Was Tempted!

    Contributed by David Smith on Feb 20, 2008
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,944 views

    For Jesus, as for us, overcoming temptation was not a one-off fight. The temptation experience that we read of today was, if I might extend the boxing analogy, more like one...

    It’s the first Sunday in Lent and we’re back in the wilderness with Jesus.Every year we make this journey - 40 days and 40 nights it lasts! - and every year it continues to be a painful trek (as I think it‘s expected to be). And I’m conscious of the fact that a lot of ink (real and virtual) has ...read more

    Evil Ahab Series

     | 3,044 views

    Sometimes Ahab repented partially of his evil, only to let evil take a different direction. Evil comes back to bite you.

    Evil Ahab (1 Kings 16:29 - 22:40; 2 Chronicles 18) 1. Some people have no idea what they are saying. I was admiring my aunt’s necklace when she surprised me by announcing, “I’m leaving it to you in my will. ”I was overjoyed, perhaps too much. “Oh!” I shouted. “I’m looking forward to that!” —Mona ...read more

    The Tower Of Babel

    Contributed by Owen Bourgaize on Aug 26, 2003
    based on 84 ratings
     | 21,114 views

    The Tower of Babel is a life parable telling of the dangers of the Spirit of the Age - Poverty of Spirituality and Pride of Life - and the chaos it brings which only Christ’s redemption can right.

    The story of the Tower of Babel is a sad description of breakdown of fellowship, growing isolation and confusion. It all results from human beings’ failing to live in dependence on God, becoming proud of their achievements and determined to be the source of their own security. That was the root ...read more

    Paul's continued encouragement to the Jews in the church in Rome also serves as a reminder to the Gentile of who we are; and that our in-grafting is for the glory of God ... not for us to swell with pride.

    Romans, Part 35 Romans 11:11-24 Introduction - It is important that we not only see the encouragement to the Jews in Rome -- But, that we see our role in being part of the existing remnant - Paul discussed that seeking God through our own pride is not the way -- Those in Israel who thought ...read more

    Satan, the tempter, the accuser, the lier, a thief, For temptation, primarily, satan uses 3 areas of the flesh: 1. The lust of the flesh. 2. The lust of the eye. 3. The pride of life.

    We Win! Matthew 4:1-3 Bishop Fulton Sheen said, “Rivers follow the course of least resistance. That's why they are so crooked.” This I'm sure of, “We cannot afford to take the course of least resistance when it comes to temptation.” We have to follow the truth of scripture and our ...read more

    Humbly Heartfelt

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 24, 2025
     | 189 views

    Christ’s humility reveals heaven’s heart—God stooping in love. When His mind lives in us, pride dies, grace flows, and hearts rise.

    I. The Heartbeat of Heaven There are moments in Scripture that let us overhear the heartbeat of heaven. Philippians 2 : 5-11 is one of them. It’s as if Paul pulls back the curtain and lets us listen to how God thinks and feels. It’s not thunder or trumpet—it’s the quiet pulse of divine ...read more

    Let Your Light Shine At The Peak

    Contributed by James Dina on Oct 29, 2022
     | 2,138 views

    As of March 2022, 42 percent of pastors had considered leaving full-time ministry within the previous year (BARNA Group Survey). Also, only 30% of the leaders in the Bible finished well. This means that 70% fell short of God’s plan for their lives. Our lights must definitely shine at the peak.

    LET YOUR LIGHT SHINE AT THE PEAK "Son of man, how is the wood of the vine better than any other wood, the vine branch which is among the trees of the forest? (Ezekiel 15:2) Jesus disarmed principalities and powers. He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them in it. ...read more

    Spiritual Weapons For Obeying Christ PRO Sermon

    Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 25, 2025
    based on 3 ratings
     | 90 views

    True victory in life’s battles comes through prayer and relying on God’s spiritual weapons, surrendering every thought to Christ rather than fighting in our own strength.

    Some battles thunder. Others whisper. Some arrive like a storm front on the horizon. Others slip in through the crack beneath the door, like worry, like weariness, like the what-ifs that wake us at 2:13 a.m. You know those skirmishes, don’t you? The ones between your ears and behind your ribs. The ...read more
