    In this text we are going to talk about something that most folks do not like to talk about, that is SNAKES!

    Illus: When it comes to snakes, most of us are like the fellow who said that the only kind of snakes he likes are dead snakes.

    Two Kinds Of Wildernesses

     | 6,133 views

    Do you feel like you're in the wilderness with no way out? This message looks at two possible reasons why someone might wind up there, by examining both the “sin-driven wilderness” and “Spirit-driven wilderness.”

    The wilderness is a place that captures the imagination and stirs the soul. Native Americans, for example, will journey into the wilderness on a vision quest; thrill seekers will flock to the mountains and remote places in search of adventure; those who are overworked will retreat there for peace ...read more

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Oct 25, 2025
     | 84 views

    We take up the matter of the sin nature to combat an error. How do the righteousness and justice and forgiveness of God interact? Do I actually have a sinful nature causing me to sin, or is the world responsible for sinfulness?

    THE MATTER OF YOUR SIN NATURE – REAL OR IMAGINED? [A]. PART 1. THE REASON BEHIND THIS A Christian wrote to me from the United States with a biblical question because she was confused with a posting by someone on Facebook.

    As Christians, we should choose true friends wisely, recognizing the characteristics of fake friends, and seek God's wisdom to discern the difference between the two.

    Good morning, church family! Today, we're going to talk about a topic that hits close to home for all of us – friendship. We all know the saying, "You are the company you keep," and the Bible has a lot to say about the importance of choosing our friends wisely. Our focus today will be ...read more

    Grace Versus Works - Saved By The Faith Of Jesus

    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Aug 20, 2025
    based on 4 ratings
     | 142 views

    In the Bible, Jesus is often referred to as God's "free gift" (Romans 5:15 NIV). A person is free to reject that gift just as they are free to reject the offer of friendship and love from another.

    Works-based Christianity is similar to the principle of Karma, which is the "law of the deed," a centuries-old worldwide belief that if you do good things, good will come back to you, and if you do bad things, bad will come back to you. It is believed that suffering is a result of a ...read more

    This sermon from Matthew 13 reminds us that while the Word of God and the Sower never change, the fruitfulness of our lives depends entirely on the condition of our hearts—whether they are hardened, shallow, crowded, or humble and receptive to the transforming truth of Christ.

    The Soil of the Heart Matthew 13:1-9, 18-23 To hear and truly understand the words of our Creator is no simple task. This is the One who knit us together in our mother’s womb. Who recorded every moment of our lives before one of them came to be. Who holds together the seen and unseen, past, ...read more
