    Refine Or Destroy Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 6,509 views

    Jesus is quoted saying, "I came to...divide," and in another place He said, "I came to bring peace." Which is it? What would cause division in families? Division began very quickly after He physically left us. Has this division led to war?

    August 18, 2013 Refine or Destroy A bank robber in Virginia Beach got a nasty surprise when a dye pack designed to mark stolen money exploded in his Fruit-of-the-Looms. The robber apparently stuffed the loot down the front of his pants as he was running out the door. “He was seen hopping ...read more

    Scars

    Contributed by John Gaston on Jul 5, 2018
     | 10,525 views

    Often our scars serve as mile-markers in our lives. Other scars are hidden from human view. Scars from verbal or physical abuse, divorce, traumatic losses, betrayals by those you loved. They don't escape the Master's gaze. He wants to heal them.

    SCARS INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. In a lot of ways, adults are like kids; we make mistakes and sometimes get hurt. 2. A young boy, Jayden, came into the house covered with mud after finishing a rough day of play. "Mom," he shouted at the top of his voice, "if I fell out of a tree, would you ...read more

    Are you thirsty and dried out from the evil things of this world? Come to the Lord Jesus because He is our "Living Water"!!! As physical water gives us life, Jesus, the living water gives us eternal life. With Jesus you will never thirst again.

    Please everyone grab your Bibles and lets turn to and read together; Ezekiel 47:1-9 CSB -- Then he brought me back to the entrance of the temple and there was water flowing from under the threshold of the temple toward the east, for the temple faced east.

    The Fire Of The Holy Spirit Series

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on May 23, 2025
     | 505 views

    In Scripture, fire symbolises God's power to cleanse, consume, and empower. Just as physical fire burns away impurities and provides warmth and light, so also the fire of the Holy Spirit purifies our hearts, energises our spiritual lives, and sets us ablaze for service.

    THE FIRE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Matthew 3:11 Supporting Texts: Acts 2:1-4, Luke 24:32, Leviticus 6:12-13, Hebrews 12:29, 1 Kings 18:38 INTRODUCTION: The ministry of the Holy Spirit is often associated with symbols such as wind, water, oil, and fire.

    The First Hinderances For Spiritual Growth: Having Not Been Born Again (1) Series

    Contributed by Barnabas Park on Jan 17, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,006 views

    I defined spiritual growth in terms of "being conformed to the image of His Son" Christian activities or ministries wouldn't guarantee spiritual growth, unless one has the spiritual life, to begin with. One has to be born again to start and grow in spiritual life.

    The four most common hindrances for Spiritual Growth. 1. Having not been born again by Barnabas Park Romans 8:29: For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to become conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the first-born among many brethren; Beginning today, I would like to share ...read more

    Dealing With Delay

    based on 4 ratings
     | 11,409 views

    We have our Christian beliefs, yes-but that isn’t the same as believing God. Believing God is a personal response that grows out of our Christian faith and is expressed by our increasing trust in Him while waiting on Him and His promises.

    Opening illustration: In April 2010, clouds of ash spewed by a volcano in Iceland closed airports across the UK and Europe for 5 days. Nearly 100,000 flights were canceled and millions of passengers around the world found themselves in an enormous holding pattern on the ground. People missed ...read more

    No matter how weak or how strong your faith is, As long as your faith is in Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior. As you pray and study God’s Word, your faith will grow stronger AND stronger.

     | 7,899 views

    Israel called to be holy experienced many of the same obstacles that we experience as we seek to grow in Christ and to be used by Him. In Numbers we see Israel filled with discontentment, dissension, discouragement, and defiance – all deadly obstacles.

    OBSTACLES TO INDIVIDUAL AND CHURCH GROWTH – PART 3 LEVITICUS 20:22-26 Introduction: Paul told the Corinthian church that the things that happened to Israel in the wilderness were lessons to be used to help the church in its spiritual growth.

    The apostles did not fellowship with those who kept crying, "What is in it for me?" Do not spend your time associating with selfish people who are not willing to grow up in Christ. Perhaps, the biggest opponents for the advancement of the kingdom of God a

    1. Everyone wants to make a positive difference, but few seem to know how. However, many people become so indifferent that end up having more of a negative than a positive influence on those around them ö not the apostles.

     | 4,336 views

    The way to serve God in the church, is to build it up by proclaiming the gospel, by helping those who come to faith to grow, and by encouraging them to become mature believers who in turn can bring others into God’s kingdom.

    “Faith is like a muscle, the more you exercise it, the bigger and stronger it becomes.” That is why God leads us through difficult places and circumstances in life. By so doing, He is helping us grow in our faith.

    Theme: Moving Towards Maturity Text: Genesis 16: 7-23 Introduction A. Our message last Sunday was about the word of God to Abraham concerning his fear, future, and faith. God reassured Abraham of His divine protection and comfort. God told him that he should not be anxious about what his future ...read more

    Some Christians never grow up in their faith. And yet, Galatians 5 tells me that God’s Spirit can help me have more faith in my life. How does He do that?

    OPEN: When I listen to Christian radio in the evenings, I’ve often tuned in to a call-in program featuring a wise, grandfatherly gentleman who has that calm reassuring voice capable of melting fear.

    Third in revival series at Emmaus Baptist Church, Quinton, VA: Dialogical (sought testimonies from audience at selected intervals). We may feel that our investment in faith is a waste; but it will not be if we can learn to grow in relationships.

    I hate waste. I despise it when I find out I have wasted something valuable – time or money or effort. Don’t you?
