    Contributed by Terry Hovey on Feb 21, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 765 views

    To the world that nailed Him to a cross, He will return as the King of Kings and Lord of Lords. He came once as a Lamb, but He will return as a Lion. Once as a Savior, He will come again as the Judge who will sit on His throne to judge the nations.

    Goats to the Left of Me and Sheep to the Right Matthew 25:31-46 Matthew chapters 24 and 25, otherwise known as the Olivet Discourse, contain the most detailed description of events that are to occur in the future among the Lord’s recorded teachings.

    The Question Evil Can’t Answer

    Contributed by David Dunn on Dec 29, 2025
     | 155 views

    Evil remains a mystery, but the cross reveals God’s character. He enters human suffering, bears its weight, and assures us that love—not evil—has the final word.

    There are certain questions that do not arise from curiosity, but from collision. They are not born in classrooms or debates, but in moments when life presses hard against the soul and refuses to explain itself. These questions surface when loss interrupts routine, when suffering enters without ...read more

    Sin With The Tongue – Part 2

    Contributed by Kunnil Wilson on Nov 15, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 608 views

    The tongue also is a fire, a world of evil among the parts of the body. It corrupts the whole body, sets the whole course of one’s life on fire, and is itself set on fire by hell

    Continued from Part 1 What are the words that cause sin? Second. Proverbs 15:1-2 A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger. 2 The tongue of the wise adorns knowledge, but the mouth of the fool gushes folly.

    God chastens us for our own good. However, usually, when we are going through His chastening we resist the Lord with all of our might. But this passage shows how it would be beneficial to receive the Lord’s chastening.

    I have entitled our message this evening, “Receiving the Lord’s Chastening,” and I wish to begin by sharing an illustration entitled, “God’s Loving Kick”: A Norfolk-Southern train was rolling down the rails of Indiana at 24 miles per hour. Suddenly the conductor, Robert Mohr, spotted an object ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 3,272 views

    Before they speak, believers should asked themselves: Is what I’m about to say Good? Is it kind? Is it necessary? Believers should not speak until their words pass the test of those three questions. Handle your words with care!

    Sermon – Taking Authority Over Your Words Scripture: Ephesians 4:29-32 “Don’t use foul or abusive language. Let everything you say be good and helpful, so that your words will be an encouragement to those who hear them. And do not bring sorrow to God’s Holy Spirit by the way you live.

    based on 1 rating
     | 3,218 views

    Perhaps the toughest person to forgive is the unrepentant? More than that, why does God ask us to forgive the unrepentant when He doesn't? The Apostle Paul explains to us how we deal with such people in II Timothy 4:14-18 and Romans 12:17-21.
