     | 11,937 views

    Paul's encounter with the Lord brought about a radical transformation in his life. He began a walk of faith with the Lord that offered hope and assurance of eternal life. Of all the walks one takes with the Lord by faith, salvation is by far the best.

    Series: Walking by Faith # 6 The Conversion of Paul Acts 9: 1-9 Over the past several weeks we have considered various accounts of those who walked by faith and received the abundance of the Lord.

     | 7,368 views

    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. While this may have been the beginning of his conclusion, he has quite a bit more to share with them. Following the ...read more

    Through the cross, Christ provided salvation for those who are lost and an example of service for those who are saved.

    As we conclude our Character Tour of the Old Testament, we're looking to the example of Jesus, who shows us what it means to serve God. This is important, because of the command Christ has given to us: "As the Father has sent me, I am sending you." - John 20:21 (NIV) As we consider the example ...read more

    The struggles we face as we journey with the Lord are varied and many. None are more difficult that the battles that rage within our minds. If we are to overcome spiritually, we must learn to win this battle from a biblical approach.

    When God Turns The Tables Around

    based on 2 ratings
     | 41,403 views

    God can step in at anytime to change times, seasons and situations; He can arise and turn the tables around to favour His children.

    Never look down on anyone. The person you look down on today may be the person you have to run to for help tomorrow. The account of Jephthah in Judges 11:1-11 beautifully illustrates this point. Jephthah was born with a stigma. His mother was a prostitute. Even though there was a shroud of ...read more

    Solomon was blessed with wisdom, riches and honour, and they are the favours of God. Let us acknowledge the favours of God in our lives. We seek God, not the gifts.

    An Easter Sermon

    Contributed by Martin Ellgar on Dec 12, 2014
     | 6,591 views

    A perspective on Easter. When one is spiritually exhausted and even physically exhausted from wrestling with God in prayer, then there is only one way to go. That is, to surrender to the will of God and say, “Not my will, but your will be done”.
