A Claim, A Commandment, And A Promise

Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Jan 12, 2015

Casual Christianity is worthless and brings neither glory to God nor satisfaction to the soul.

I love fast food. I know I shouldn’t, but I do. Actually, I don’t really love it; I’m just comfortable with it. It’s quick. It’s easy. And it’s cheap. It’s not good for me, I know. The last time I ate a Big Mac, I checked the calorie count. If you eat just ...read more

Contributed by Charles Cunningham on Mar 11, 2020

When taking our failures to the Lord in prayer, we need to understand that God's delays in answering our prayers are not denials. God is greater than our circumstances and always answers according to what's best for us.

The Death Giving Sin Vs. The Life Giving Gift Series

Contributed by Mark Schaeufele on May 22, 2020

In our text today, Paul brings up this concept of original sin, because Adam and Eve chose to sin, all people are born in sin and have the tendency to sin. However, he also shows how Jesus sacrificial death reverses the curse of original sin.

The Death-Giving Sin Vs. The Life-Giving Gift Text: Rom. 5:12-21 Introduction 1. What is original sin? 2. Picture your ancestors as plantation farmers in the South. They have many acres of farmland and need to manage those crops. To help them accomplish this task, they go to the docks and buy a ...read more

Complete Salvation – The Secure Promise Of God

Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on May 30, 2020

What a person believes about God is the most important thing contained in their mind. It affects everything about them. Specifically, what they believe about God shapes them spiritually, emotionally, and physically.

Far too many people feel God is remote, impersonal, and unknowable. Because of that, many Born-Again Christians suffer from an inability to feel forgiven, and live with nagging doubts and fear about their relationship with God. Failure to love and trust God often comes from picturing Him as ...read more

The Truth About Moab Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jun 4, 2020

Naomi found herself in a desperate situation in Moab. Having left Bethlehem due to a famine, Moab had not brought the abundance they desired. Losing her husband and sons to death in Moab, Naomi was left there with only her daughters-in-law, but hope and grace were available in Bethlehem.

The Truth About Moab Ruth 1: 1-7 Today I want to begin our study in the wonderful book of Ruth. Within this portion of Scripture, we find one of the greatest pictures of grace presented in the Bible. This biblical account focuses on three main characters: Ruth, a pagan girl from Moab who ...read more

Freedom (Galatians)

Contributed by Laura Martin on Jun 30, 2020

A walk through the book of Galatians. Are you living free – and not as a slave to the law or to sin?

I think freedom is one of the deepest longings of the human heart. Wars have been fought, songs have been sung, philosophies developed – all for the cause of freedom. So it should not surprise us that when Jesus entered into human history — some of his earliest public words in a synagogue came from ...read more

Favor In The Field Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jul 1, 2020

As Ruth gleaned in the field of one she had yet to meet, she was unaware of the providence of God regarding her situation. The Lord had led her to a place where she would be noticed by Boaz, the man who would serve as her Kinsman Redeemer.

Favor in the Field Ruth 2: 4-7 As I pondered these verses I was reminded what a difference a day can make. It is amazing how God can take what appears to be an ordinary or even uncertain circumstance and work it out for our benefit. Ruth had made the long journey from Moab to Bethlehem ...read more

But For The Love Of God

Contributed by Rodney V Johnson on Jul 18, 2020

We often hear people says "For the love of God....." when they are expressing frustrations. In this message I hope to convince Christians that this statement should never be made in frustration, but with a sense of awe as we reflect on God's love for us.

But For The Love Of God Scriptures: John 3:16; Matthew 4:8-10; 1 Timothy 2:3-4 The last time that I spoke to you I delivered a message about knowing THE Name.

When God Says No

Contributed by Brad Stone on Sep 19, 2020

We never like to accept a "No" answer in our life, especially in prayer, but the fact is that there are times God replies to us with a firm No because He wants to reveal to us a deeper plan.

When we were children, we never liked hearing the word 'No' when we ask our parents for something. We felt as though our every wish should be granted. If you say otherwise, we can pray later. Frankly, as adults, we feel the same way. We do not like to be told no in regards to ...read more
