The Curse Of Sin - Part 1 Series

Contributed by Dr. Bradford Reaves on Nov 17, 2021

Sin left a curse. God’s curse is the absence of His blessings and the fall of Adam and Eve is only one of two places in the Bible where God pronounces a curse (the other being on Cain). There is a greater reality we often fail to see and that is there is hope in the curse.

The Tainting Scheme Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Nov 18, 2021

Satan realizes that the Word of God is a mighty weapon in the “war against demonic terror.” Therefore, he taints the Word by adding to it, subtracting from it, or substituting his own defective formula, in order to deceive believers.

Satan is very sly. Sometimes he tries to get you to question what God has said and to twist God’s words to mean something that is not true. - Tammy Melton(1) The Word of God is a powerful weapon against the devil. Proverbs states, “Every word of God is pure; He is a shield to those who put their ...read more

Three Root Sins

Contributed by Jenny Franklin on Dec 26, 2021

Both Eve and Jesus were tempted just as we are. They were tempted by Satan, who used the three root sins.

There are many sins, but they all come from three “root sins”…three heart problems. All that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. 1John 2:16 Three Root Sins —the lust of the flesh —the lust of the ...read more

Living In The Tree Of Life (Part 1)

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Jan 28, 2022

Many believers are living in fear, guilt, shame, and condemnation. They are partaking of death instead of life; unknowingly eating from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, instead of eating from the tree of life.

This morning I want to talk about life, not the facts of life or difficulties of life, but how to have true life in the Lord. In our United States Declaration of Independence we encounter the phrase, “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness,” which is one of the most well known statements in ...read more

Living In The Tree Of Life (Part 2)

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Jan 28, 2022

The tree of the knowledge of good and evil is the formation of a value system; or rather, a "judgement" system. Living in the tree of life is making decisions from life and liberty, and what stimulates life in both you and others.

This morning’s message is a continuation of last week’s on the tree of life, and I have entitled our sermon, “Living in the Tree of Life” – Part 2. I would like to begin with some food for thought by sharing a real life illustration of a historical figure who walked in the tree of life. George ...read more
