The Importance Of Christian Unity Series

Contributed by Rich Anderson on Feb 16, 2011

All true believers have God’s glory within, no matter what they may look like on the outside. Christian unity is not based on the external, but the internal. The very Spirit of God within us.

How important is unity in our individual lives? How important is unity in our church? Jesus had a lot to say about the importance of unity. If Christians cannot be unified, then we are not approaching one another in love. And we cannot be a good witness for Christ if we are bickering with one ...read more

Myths Of Salvation

Contributed by Tim Hinrichs on Jan 31, 2013

There are many myths Christians believe about how to be saved. As we look into the Scripture we see these myths revealed as false and the only way to salvation through the cross of Christ.

What is a myth? A story about someone or something that some claim to be true but is usually a fable. In Minnesota we have the stories of Paul Bunyan and Babe the blue ox. There is the belief in Poland that if you sit on a cold stone surface you will get sick and in America, many believe that if ...read more

The Real Reason For The Season

Contributed by Carl Greene on Dec 31, 2007

Surely it is good we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. But why did God send His only Son? What was the reason? It ultimately leads to the cross and forgiveness, and our salvation.

We talked last week about “What if.” We looked at the Dickens Story “A Christmas Carol” and while acknowledging that “Christ” was not mentioned in the story, as Christians, we look for the message of Christ everywhere. And as such, we said that we might look at the “Spirits” of Christmas past, ...read more

A Perfect Saviour

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Oct 24, 2014

Whether viewed as the babe in a manger, or as the man upon the Cross; as the risen Lord, or as the King upon the throne - Jesus is well able to identify with us in the midst of our own perplexities in this life.

A PERFECT SAVIOUR. Hebrews 2:10-18. I. The Father deemed it an appropriate method to secure our salvation by sending His Son into this world to be one with us (Hebrews 2:10-11). This was determined from all eternity, and was not some kind of afterthought (John 3:16). Jesus came willingly, ...read more

Teary Eyes, Stumbling Feet, Hands Series

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Nov 19, 2000

Deepseated shame and objective guilt arise from a self-serving spirit, but the Cross delivers us from both and frees us to live out of gratitude.

Mark it down. Memorize this. Engrave it somewhere. It is an ironclad rule. This will always happen: when it is the least convenient for you to respond, someone will want you to respond. When it is nearly impossible for you to get up and do what someone wants you to do, that is the very moment ...read more

Especially Series

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Mar 21, 2004

Three times the word "especially" appears in the New Testament, prompting us to be intentional in fellowship, to emphasize family life, and never to forget the centrality of the message of the Cross.

Dealing with people is always messy. There is no way you can work with human beings and have everything neat and clean. When you deal with people, you get a mess. They misunderstand, they misinterpret, they make mistakes, they get it wrong. And that’s just on Sundays! The rest of the week is ...read more
