  • Purity Of The Heart & Holiness

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Apr 26, 2021
     | 4,204 views

    Let no one despise you for your youth, but set the believers an example in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith, in purity. 1 Timothy 4:12 (ESV)

    Let no one despise you for your youth, but set the believers an example in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith, in purity. 1 Timothy 4:12 (ESV) It's amazing how God lines things up. Because I've been thinking about this topic endlessly in the past 6 months. Purity. The further and ...read more

  • Redeeming The Time Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Apr 30, 2021
    based on 3 ratings
     | 12,315 views

    New Year's: Kairos (God’s time) vs. kronos (the devil’s time). Kairos looks for what God is getting ready to do in the present moment; but kronos is a distraction that keeps people from using their lives - and time - wisely for the Lord.

    To begin our message, I want to point out a couple of concerns we often hear expressed by pastors and church leaders, which are: 1.) Christians rarely share their faith, and 2.) Christians are not going to church as often as they once did. If these concerns are legitimate – which I believe they are ...read more

  • It's For Your Own Good

    Contributed by Derrick Tuper on May 2, 2021
     | 4,397 views

    Last Sunday I used a phrase that you may have heard growing up: do as I say, not as I do. Today I have another that would be just as bothersome: this is for your own good. God will do things we won't like but will be for our own good.

    IT'S FOR YOUR OWN GOOD Last Sunday I used a phrase that you may have heard growing up: do as I say, not as I do. That's a phrase we wouldn't have wanted to hear. Today I have another one that would be equally as bothersome: this is for your own good. We didn't like to hear that ...read more

  • Striking The Shepherd

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on May 5, 2021
    based on 3 ratings
     | 4,847 views

    The devil worked through believers to see Jesus betrayed and crucified. He is working today to discredit God's shepherds. When conflict arises, people all too often deny their leader; and this is the point at which he is led away to be crucified!

    In Job 2:7, we read, “So Satan went out from the presence of the LORD, and struck Job with painful boils from the sole of his foot to the crown of his head.” I think most of us realize that Satan can attack people physically by robbing them of their health; however, the surprising revelation is ...read more

  • He That Winneth Souls Is Wise No. 2

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 31, 2022
     | 1,681 views

    The story is told of a young farmer who was drafted into the Confederate army to serve during the Civil War.

    The war was such a strain on the South that they did not have time to train the recruits. They drafted them to serve and placed them on the battle line to fight. This one young man was drafted and never had time to learn how: • To salute. • To keep in step as he marched. • Even, to know what the ...read more

  • The Book Of Mark #09

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 31, 2022
     | 1,543 views

    Many times it seems that we have GOOD NEWS or BAD NEWS brought to us. Sometimes we hear …

    • The bad news • The good news • The great news Illus: The day after a man lost his wife in a scuba diving accident, he was greeted by two grim-faced policemen at his door. "We're sorry to call on you at this hour, Mr. Wilkens, but we have some information about your wife." • ...read more

  • The Blessing

    Contributed by Je Layugan on Apr 11, 2022
     | 3,636 views

    When something good happened to us or to someone we know, we associate it to blessing, and we feel like blessing others too. So, what blessing really is? What does it mean to be blessed by God?

    #Blessed, #IAmBlessed, #GratefultobeBlessed, these are just few of the most popular hashtags on the internet related to blessing. • A guy was promoted in his job and received a bonus amid recession. He is blessed. • A lady received a gift she did not ask. She is blessed. • A family just moved into ...read more

  • One Accord

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 26, 2022
     | 5,868 views

    As a pastor I find this verse of scripture amazing. Why? Because this verse tells us two amazing things: the New Testament church was:

    • IN ONE ACCORD • IN ONE PLACE. Accomplishing either one of these would be marvelous, but to accomplish both is astounding. Illus: This couldn’t be a Baptist Church!!! Can you imagine getting everyone to attend. Illus: Occasionally, many churches have a “NO EXCUSE SUNDAY,” trying to get ...read more

  • Raising Children Of Influence Series

    Contributed by C. Philip Green on May 4, 2022
     | 3,509 views

    To raise children of influence, raise them to bless others, to believe in Jesus, and to boldly share their faith.

    The children had a special program at church and a little girl was to recite the Scripture she had memorized for the occasion. When she got in front of the crowd, the sight of hundreds of eyes peering at her caused her to forget her memory work. Every line that she had so carefully rehearsed ...read more

     | 1,629 views

    This is a very important practical message about building others up and walking correctly with the Lord. We look at the tenses of salvation in the exalted position the Lord has raised us to. Let us encourage and comfort and build up, that we might honour God and serve Him with a pure heart.

  • A New Vision For A New Year

    Contributed by Lalachan Abraham on Dec 30, 2022
     | 13,335 views

    The New Year offers us the chance to wipe the slate clean and start over once again. It is a time to set new goals and to make plans as to how you will meet those goals.

    2022 is over. 2023 is here—and the old year is behind us. It is History and cannot be altered or changed. Undoubtedly there is much in it we would like to change, some things we wish we had done differently, something left undone, some regret, and hopefully some good too. Each of us must admit that ...read more

     | 1,662 views

    In church government there are 5 words translations use for the leadership positions, looked at briefly and then we consider a verse of great practical support. It covers busybodies, disorderly people, the fainthearted, helping the weak Christians, and patience in opposition.

    MESSAGE 10 - 1 THESSALONIANS CHAPTER 5:12-14 – CHURCH LEADERSHIP POSITIONS AND PRACTICAL MATTERS FOR CHRISTIANS RESPECT YOUR SHEPHERDS We will continue with the studies in 1Thessalonians, and today we will look at the governing of a church and the shepherd role within the leadership.

  • Precious!

    Contributed by Kunnil Wilson on Jan 9, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,864 views

    We value many things in life. Our health, beauty, family, children, job, wealth, dignity, education, siblings, parents. If you look at it like that, there are many things and many reasons. Although these are all things that we need in life, each of them will leave us in different situations.

  • Beware The Wolves Series

    Contributed by Terry Hovey on Jan 30, 2023
     | 2,829 views

    We still have false teachers and phony prophets who are infiltrating the Church.

    A few weeks ago, a UPS driver came up to my door to drop off a package. As usual, my dog Napoleon started barking and going nuts. (He’s my mailman alarm system) So, when he started barking, I went into the front room and opened the door just enough to let myself out to receive the package, when ...read more
