All Prepared

Contributed by Paul Davidson on Jan 26, 2021

Jesus warns us to assess the genuineness of our faith and be prepared for His return. Do we look like the Church, but are devoid of the Holy Spirit? Instead of lives transformed by the power of Christ, are our lives more like performance art? Jesus is coming at any moment! Are you prepared?

INTRODUCTION Do you agree that in God’s master plan, there is no such thing as “coincidence”? A few weeks ago, your pastor asked if I would be willing to preach today. Not only did I tell him “Yes!” on the spot, but I also told him that I knew exactly what I wanted to preach. You see, God had ...read more

The Cheerleaders At Life's Finish Line

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Feb 17, 2021

This world is coming to an end. Our journey with the Lord Jesus is coming to a conclusion and reward. The Scriptures show us that those who have gone on before us are waiting at the Finish Line to welcome us home, where we can all share our stories of how Jesus used us for His glory.

As I write this, two well-known personalities in the area of music and opinion have passed away within the span of a couple of hours. The Christian singer Carman, who was popular in the 1980's through the early 2000's , was known for songs such as "Addicted to Jesus", "The ...read more

Put Thou My Tears Into Thy Bottle

Contributed by Thomas Andrufski on Feb 20, 2021

This sermon shows us the deep and meticulous way God sees us. He knows and is concerned with His people in every way. (Make this sermon yours by putting in your own stories of how you have been comforted by God)

Psalms 56:8 (KJV) Thou tellest my wanderings: put thou my tears into thy bottle: are they not in thy book? This scripture shows us the tender heart of our heavenly Father. He has a tear bottle —in fact, perhaps a tear bottle for each of His wandering children. Ancient “tear bottles” have ...read more

The Heart Of A Servant Series

Contributed by Christian Cheong on Feb 22, 2021

In the midst of a rumour accusing Paul falsely, we see him doing what he can to preserve the unity of the church and mission of the church. This is the heart of a servant of God.

Read Acts 21:15-26. LET US PRAY: Thank you for your written Word. May the truth of your Word inspires us again, to know you and trust you, and to be faithful followers of Christ. May the life and ministry of Paul be an encouragement for all of us who are serving you today. Bless us with your ...read more

Freedom In Christ

Contributed by Anthony Zibolski on Feb 23, 2021

Our identity is in Christ. Christianity is a lifestyle not a plaque we put on the wall. there are alot of people who claim they are Christians but their lives are not bearing fruit of it.

Freedom in Christ Galatians 3:1-29 Prayer- Introduction- Where’s your identity? That is the question that I asked a group that got together recently. Is your identity a passport? Where someone looks at you and your passport to make sure that you are the same person? A doctor matching DNA? ...read more

Setting Our Minds

Contributed by Charles Mallory on Feb 27, 2021

Peter has good intentions, but they are not in agreement with God's ultimate plan. We must covenant to deny ourselves and align ourselves to God's will and ways.

WE MAY HAVE HEARD THIS FAMILIAR SAYING: “THE ROAD TO HELL IS PAVED WITH GOOD INTENTIONS.” AN INTENTION IS SIMPLY A PLAN OR GOAL WE HOPE TO ACCOMPLISH. IRONICALLY, INTENTIONS DON’T ACHIEVE ANYTHING. THEY ARE MERELY IDEAS AND DREAMS OF SPECIFIC THINGS THAT WE’D LIKE TO SEE DONE IN THE ...read more

Proving Jesus Arose From The Dead

Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Mar 20, 2021

Christianity is based and grounded in the Resurrection of Jesus, the promised Messiah of Israel. Every Born-Again Christian should be able to defend this foundational truth.

Christianity proclaims that Jesus rose from the dead and hangs its entire existence on that fact. Yet, there is no practical certainty of it because actual eyewitnesses cannot be questioned due to them being dead! However, a logical case can be made on the certainty of historical evidence. The ...read more

Take Up Your Cross

Contributed by Dr. Fred W. Penney on Mar 22, 2021

This expository message from Mark 8:31-38 is about Jesus' call to discipleship - to take up our cross and follow him.

Title: Take up Your Cross Text: Mark 8:31-38 Subject; How does Jesus define discipleship? Complement; Jesus says it means that you too take up your cross. Big idea: “True disciples don’t just wear a cross around their necks - they put it on their shoulders.” Introduction – we are moving toward ...read more

What A Deal! Series

Contributed by James Wallace on Mar 22, 2021

The New Covenant is an incredible deal available to us from the Lord. It has made the Old Covenant obsolete, and when we consider it, it is a deal we cannot afford to pass up!

My wife Jeanie is a shopper par excellence! She loves to shop. But what she loves to shop for is the great deal—she loves finding and getting something of great value for pennies on the dollar. So she’s an expert garage saler. She’s always checking out the sale racks at the back of stores. ...read more

Revelation From Heaven Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 23, 2021

Paul must establish that God has selected him just as He did the prophets of the Old Testament. He was to bring a new message to God's people. It was not a message he learned in school, but a message he received direct from God.

The third president of the United States, Thomas Jefferson, is most famous for being the author of the Declaration of Independence. Many have pronounced it a document inspired from heaven, and there is much reason to believe that it has the providence of God behind it. Jefferson, however, took ...read more

From The Worst To The Best Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 23, 2021

Paul tells us in verses 13 and 14 that he was always a very religious man, and he was zealous in his commitment to Judaism. Paul becomes a great example of both the danger and value of being religious.

Mary Marrow had just arrived in China as a missionary when the Boxer Rebellion broke out in 1900. The leaders of China blamed the missionaries for the problems of the land, and mobs began to violently persecute the Christians. They were dragged from their homes and forced to stomp on a cross or ...read more

I Met Him And He Gave Me A New Heart Series

Contributed by Gordon Pike on Apr 11, 2021

Saul’s conversion into Paul is an example of the fact that no one is too far from God or too far beyond God’s reach or God’s power to save, to transform a person, and give them a new heart … a heart for Him alone.

Today, doctors can literally give you a new heart … well, new to you at least. It once belonged to someone else. Someday medical science may be able to give us a mechanical heart … but I truly believe that only God can give you a change of heart. When I say that, I’m not talking about this ...read more

Screen Life: An Ancient Wall & A Call To Arms

Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Apr 28, 2021

The lights shine brightly. I can hardly see in fact. The window is in front of me, pouring light. But I can't see. My mind is infatuated, obsessed. A kind of dementia overcomes me. I can't help but look.

A Biblical Answer To The Pandemic Of Racism - Our New Identity In Christ

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Apr 29, 2021

We need a biblical vaccine! Somehow in the body of Christ, there seems to be little difference between our attitude towards race as those who do not yet know the Lord. Have ever took a close look at how race relations were dealt with in the Scriptures?

Ga 2:11 But when Peter was come to Antioch, I withstood him to the face, because he was to be blamed. 12 For before that certain came from James, he did eat with the Gentiles: but when they were come, he withdrew and separated himself, fearing them which were of the circumcision. 13 And the other ...read more
