    Getting Your Hands Around God’s Love Series

    Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Jul 29, 2018
    based on 2 ratings
     | 14,782 views

    Maybe the reason we love our sin more than we love our God is that we don’t really understand how much our God loves us! Paul describes God's love as wide, long, high, and deep. Each of these words will help us grasp more of God's love for us.

    Getting Your Hands Around God’s Love Ephesians 3:14-21 Ever wonder why it’s so hard to live the way you know God wants you to? You have that one little temptation that keeps getting you, no matter how hard you try? You feel like you could have written Romans 7, where Paul says, “I don’t do what I ...read more

    Refuse To Let Go... Get Off My Back?

    Contributed by Wade Martin Hughes, Sr on May 13, 2023
     | 1,508 views

    Spiritual death: A convicted murderer in Roman days had to be shackled face to face, hand to hand, feet to feet to the corpse of the person he killed. Sometimes we must shake off the poisonous viper in the fire and go forward, forgiven.

    What Do You Get When You Receive Christ?

    based on 15 ratings
     | 4,983 views

    Satan has done his best to blind the eyes of every single person who does not know Christ. Why? Because he does not want to them know what they are missing by not serving Him.

    Subject: What Do You Get When You Receive Christ? Scripture Reading: John 1:6-13 If the truth were known today, our community is filled with people who are fed up with life. For many life has become one vicious cycle. People have lost the meaning for living and are barely existing. Going ...read more

    A Horrible Thing - Getting Paid To Murder – In The Last Days Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Aug 28, 2025
     | 154 views

    It may sound incredible but in Australia a woman can terminate a pregnancy after 20 weeks and get paid over $4000 for doing so. Paid for abortion murder! We also look at the “smoking ceremony” and Moloch and the period of the 4 horses of Revelation, and the hate for Israel.

    A HORRIBLE THING - GETTING PAID TO MURDER – IN THE LAST DAYS As the world lurches off the cliff into the satanic chasm, certain things are happening that become totally offensive to Christians. Indeed they are totally offensive to any existing decency. We all live in separate nations and each ...read more

    32) Becomming A Fisher Of Men Series

    Contributed by Brandon Max on Feb 27, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,388 views

    Jesus called those who were Fishermen to become "Fishers of Men". This signified the spiritual focus they were to have in their lives as they followed Christ. Their true calling involved more than seeking to catch fish with a net, it involved catching men’s souls through the Gospel.

    32) BECOMMING A FISHER OF MEN Text: TEXT: Luke 5:1-11 INTRODUCTION As our weekly study continues concerning: “...those things most surely believed among us” (Lk 1:1), We have recently been exploring what the Scriptures teach about the true Gospel of Jesus Christ. And as we have seen together ...read more

    35) Confirming Another's Salvation In Jesus Christ Series

    Contributed by Brandon Max on Feb 27, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,512 views

    Religion often makes things confusing - but people can not afford to be confused about the Gospel. Salvation is through Jesus Christ alone. We should all learn to take the time to confirm a persons salvation in Jesus Christ before just assuming they are saved.

    35) CONFIRMING ANOTHER'S SALVATION IN JESUS CHRIST TEXT: Acts 8:30-31 30 And Philip ran thither to him, and heard him read the prophet Esaias, and said, Understandest thou what thou readest? 31 And he said, How can I, except some man should guide me?

     | 7,591 views

    Rewritten for Calverton Baptist Church, Silver Spring, MD: When terrible things happen, pray honestly, in complaint; remember what God has done in the past; and know that He may be forcing us to see how much we need Him.

    There is very little justice in the world. Many people feel that they are not being treated fairly. Just about all of us think we deserve a better deal than we are getting. We think that there is very little justice in the world. But that’s old news. We already know that. So what do you do ...read more

    New Year’s Eve has always been a time for looking back to the past, and more importantly, forward to the coming year. It’s a time to reflect on the changes we want (or need) to make and resolve to follow through on those changes.

    Judgment On Our Hearts

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Apr 17, 2004
    based on 50 ratings
     | 3,454 views

    For our Remembrance Sunday, when we recall church members deceased during the past year. Memories that are all positive or all positive leave judgment on our hearts. The gospel means that we learn and rejoice from them, but recognize that their lives we

    The way in which we remember those who have gone before us can either empower us or it can disempower us. The way in which we grieve for those we have loved and lost can either enable us to greater things, or it can disable us and hold us back. It all depends on what we do with the judgment that ...read more

    This message is about financial freedom and how you can achieve it no matter how you’ve handled your money in the past. God wants all of us to experience financial freedom from debt, where you are liberated from anxiety

    Developing a Financial Plan Luke 16:1-13 A pastor shared a letter from one that one of his parishioners sent him concerning his personal money management issues: “Of all the experiences in my life, I have yet to find one to compare to the sheer devastation of financial indebtedness.

    based on 25 ratings
     | 6,891 views

    When you feel you are the only one who's wrong in the crowd of acceptable people, see how faith teaches us to find a shred of dignity in reaching out for help, and how complete faith gives us wholeness despite our past.

    This message is dedicated to the memory of my deceased great-aunt, Adelia Miller. Aunt Dedie loved to tell how, when she was a little girl going to the Sunday School at the Cloverport Baptist Church in Breckenridge County, Kentucky, the pastor had all the children in Sunday School one day.

    The apostles of old had cause to report some people to God: They said, “O Lord, behold their threatening.” Many of us reading this message have been threatened in the past, while some are now living under the threat of their enemies. What a big insult to

    HOLY REBELLION Dr. D. K.
