Freedom And Fruit Series

Contributed by Kevin Ruffcorn on Jul 13, 2013

Christians are free, but we are not freed for self-indulgence, but for service.

Galatians 5:1, 13-26 Freedom and Fruit INTRODUCTION There are specific times in our lives when we experience an expansive sense of freedom. One of the times that I specifically remember is when I received my drivers license. Suddenly I was free. I was no longer limited to walking or riding ...read more

Are You Involved In Making Disciples? Series

Contributed by Dean Courtier on Feb 9, 2016

Being a disciple of Jesus requires more from us than just turning up for a church service, God is meant to have the central place in our daily lives. Are you willing to move to a different level of commitment in your Christian life?

Our theme for 2016 is Dynamic Disciples. In the New Testament the word Disciple is used to describe the people who are committed to following Jesus Christ. Being a disciple of Jesus requires more from us than just turning up for a church service, God is meant to have the central place in our ...read more

Comparing Genius With Revelations!

Contributed by Tony Abram on Apr 2, 2021

In Genesis the Curse came upon everything. In Revelations the Curse is gone, Jesus paid the price to destroy it. Jesus became a curse for us that we could be free of the curse of sin. He took our place on the cross.

Where Does Christmas Come From? Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 8, 2021

This is not a mere seasonal question. It is a supreme question for all time-where does Christmas come from? The answer can guide us through confusion and uncertainty back to home base, in the very heart of God.

An aviator trainer told of how he would take students up in plane, and deliberately fly in all directions to confuse them. Then he would turn the controls over to the student and say, "Now take us home." It was the job of the student to learn how to find the radar beam, and stay one it ...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

Nine Tests Of Prophecy Series

Contributed by Richard Tow on Apr 26, 2021

Gullible believers can be misled by false prophecies. We are told in Scripture to judge all prophecy. This message equips Christians with nine tests to determine whether a prophecy, dream, vision, etc. is from God.

During the last two messages, we have addressed the need to judge prophetic ministry. Last week we learned from the story in 1 Kings 13 where the failure to judge a prophecy cost a man his life. It led him astray, and he was killed by a lion. Jesus warned about the increase in deception that ...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

Killing "the God Of Me"

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Apr 29, 2021

There is only one throne in a person's heart; it either belongs to you or to the Lord God Almighty. Jesus won't share it with you and you cannot expect Him to do so. There is only one remedy, to kill "the god of Me" and enthrone the True and Living God there!

Killing "The god of Me” Please stand with me as we go over our current memory Scripture: Matthew 5:6-8 “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be filled. Blessed are the merciful, for they shall be shown mercy. Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall ...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

Belong (Part 2 Of 4) Series

Contributed by Tim Melton on Mar 1, 2021

In Christ, we find the place of belonging that we all long for, the place of perfect truth, endless grace, and unconditional love. In the body of Christ, we find the human belonging that we need. It is in the context of belonging that we grow in our faith and are made like Christ.

Take a moment and think of where you have felt the strongest sense of belonging? Was it because of the location. . . or the people. . . or about the memories. . . or maybe it was the safety. . . or the familiarity? Maybe it is at home in your country, with your people and your culture. Maybe it is ...read more

Freedom And The Fruits Of The Spirit (June 30, 2019)

Contributed by John Williams Iii on Mar 2, 2021

Paul preached about God’s grace whereas his opponents preached contrary to Paul’s message arguing that the law required circumcision. Why would a prisoner who has been granted freedom want to return to prison?

FREEDOM AND THE FRUITS OF THE SPIRIT Text: Galatians 5:1, 13-26 Galatians 5:1, 13-16:  For freedom Christ has set us free; stand firm therefore, and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery.  …  (13)  For you were called to freedom, brothers. Only do not use your freedom as ...read more
