We've Got The Power

Contributed by Pastor/Author: Terry Sisney on Apr 19, 2022

I am convinced that the devil's greatest fear is that the church will get a revelation of the power that we already have, and that we will start acting like who God says we are.

Read with me Acts 2:1-4 "And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. [2] And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting. [3] ...read more

How To Get Up When Sin Drags You Down

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Nov 11, 2021

He was a great king, very passionate, the commander-in-chief, with a heart after God, yet Satan trapped him in the net of sin. God’s king must operate by a different standard tha the world. When David’s conscience was awakened, he expresses a heartfelt desire to be right with God.

Sermon – “How to get up When Sin Drags You Down” Ps 51:1 (A Psalm of David, when Nathan the prophet came unto him, after he had gone in to Bathsheba.) “Have mercy upon me, O God, according to thy lovingkindness: according unto the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my transgressions. 2 ...read more

Fill This Temple

Contributed by Larry Grant on Nov 20, 2021

There are some in the Christian community that suggest that politics and religion should never work together. Some in the public square that suggest that religious leaders ought to stay out of politics and concern themselves with only the spiritual. But God has the final say on this matter!

In the passage today we take a second look at the people of Israel during the ministry of Haggai the prophet. As we learned last week, 70 years earlier, in the year 586 BC, the Babylonians invaded the Southern Kingdom, destroyed Solomon's beautiful temple in Jerusalem and had taken the people ...read more

Why Are Jesus' Genealogies In Matthew And Luke Different?

Contributed by Steven W. Satterfield on Mar 21, 2023

From https://zondervanacademic.com/blog/why-are-jesus-genealogies-in-matthew-and-luke-different This post is adapted from the Four Portraits, One Jesus: Jesus’ Birth, Childhood, and Early Ministry, a free online course taught by Dr. Mark Strauss. My notes will be added later.

The birth narratives in both Matthew and Luke help answer the question, “Who is Jesus and where did he come from?” One of the ways each book does this is by recounting Jesus’ genealogy. The problem is: the genealogies are different. The Old Testament predicted that the Messiah would come from the ...read more

Merciful But Tough: The Story Of The Woman Caught In Adultery Series

Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Mar 25, 2023

Jesus showed mercy to the woman caught in adultery. But he didn't water down his demands.

INTRODUCTION I imagine we really like this story of the woman caught in adultery. We especially like the fact that Jesus didn’t condemn the woman – even though the religious experts said that she should be stoned. But as we reflect on the story, we find that it gives us some quite uncomfortable ...read more

Who Am I?

Contributed by Delray Lentz on Apr 21, 2023

Don’t you just love those preachers who can take one bible verse and bring an entire message with a rich and robust meaning? Well, that ain’t me! You’re not getting that today. However, the message is built around 1 Corinthians 12:27 and we’ll get there eventually!

Did you ever have that teacher who the only reason you paid attention in class was because they might call on you to answer a question, and you didn’t want to look a fool? Just sayin’ When I first began preparing this message, I recalled a scene from the movie “Overcomer”. I have shared this with ...read more

The Peculiar People (April 30 2023)

Contributed by John Williams Iii on Apr 27, 2023

Peter is telling us is that we should not let the things of this world, nor the people of this world distract us from the business of the Gospel! Today we want to talk about provocateurs, peculiar people and our priesthood.

THE PECULIAR PEOPLE Text:1 Peter 2:9-16 1 Peter 2: 1 - 10: Rid yourselves, therefore, of all malice, and all guile, insincerity, envy, and all slander. 2 Like newborn infants, long for the pure, spiritual milk, so that by it you may grow into salvation— 3 if indeed you have tasted ...read more

About a time when the chosen people of God turn away from Him and did what was right in their own eyes. From the time the people of Israel knew and followed God until ...read more

Daniel's Prayer Of Confession, Part 1

Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Jul 1, 2020

Daniel is about to say sorry to God on behalf of his people, the Jews. In 'Part 1' I look at WHY he prayed (he understood scripture), HOW he prayed (intensely) and WHO he prayed to (his God, a covenant-keeping God, a great and awesome God). Part 2 will be WHAT he prayed.

Daniel’s prayer of confession Part 1 1. Introduction Today we are continuing our mini-series on prayer, and looking at an amazing prayer which teaches us about saying sorry. It’s a prayer which the prophet Daniel said; we find it in Daniel 9. I’m going to start to look at it this week and ...read more
