The purpose of this place you are in currently is to shape and mold you into the image and likeness of Christ so that you can fulfill your purpose in the Kingdom of God as a citizen, servant, ambassador and king to rule and reign with Christ.
The Purpose of This Place By Bishop Melvin L. Maughmer, Jr. OPENING: - The Kingdom of God is not a religious institution, a spiritual club, or even your local church or denomination. The Kingdom of God is the realm where God reigns supreme, His authority is recognized, and His will is obeyed. The ...read more

Working through the Gospel of Luke using consecutive expository preaching. No teaching sheet.
"The Parable of Two Lost Sons" Luke 15:11-32 Pastor John Bright Luke 15 11 Jesus continued: “There was a man who had two sons.” Pause right there. Those words I just read; they were “Breathed by God”! God wants you to hear His Word right now! So, what is your response? Do you ...read more

INTRODUCTION • I have always said and believed that when I get the opportunity to preach, I do not preach at people; I preach from how the Word works on my heart and life. • In other words, when I am working on each message, the Word is working on my heart also. • None are probably more accurate ...read more

The success of Jonah is hard to believe. Skeptical scholars just flatly deny it. The facts are amazing. Jonah was preaching a message he didn't want to, and so his heart really was not in it. He really hoped it would be a flop even though he obeyed the letter of God's command.
As we all know, the Bible is very brief on its account, considering all the centuries that it covers. It was not designed to tell us everything and to give an exhaustive and detailed record of God's working. It was designed to give us basic truths, principles, and examples of their operation ...read more
Scripture: Jonah 3:1-5
The glitter of the "General's" stars are blinding others from seeing their place in the kingdom.
In this generation everyone wants to be a general in God’s army. Prophecies abound that tell people they will be rich and finance the Kingdom. They will have a worldwide dynamic ministry. They will win thousands to the Lord and so on. No one seems to get a prophetic mission to be a good ...read more

May God add His blessing to the reading of His inspired and inerrant Word! I want to preach to you today about “the preaching of the cross of Jesus.”
1. PAUL’S DECLARATION He came declaring the mystery of God. The word testimony means mystery. Now, what does he mean by a mystery? We will see this word again in this letter. A mystery means “something that had not been revealed before.” The mystery of God which Paul preached was that ...read more
Scripture: 1 Corinthians 1:18, 1 Corinthians 2:1-5
Up to this point in Romans, Paul has been pretty academic and intellectual. But now, he puts skin on the truth that justification is by faith alone.
One of my favorite movies is Steven Spielberg’s Catch Me If You Can.

America has become the land of idolatry. But before I make that claim, I need to make sure that I have the right definition of idolatry.
Illus: Dr. Billy Graham says, "We usually think of an idol as a religious figure carved of wood or stone, perhaps in some primitive tribe far removed from civilization. But we have our "idols" today, because an idol is anything that you worship in place of the living God. Some ...read more
Scripture: 1 Kings 18:36-37
We live in a land of “creature worshippers”.
For example... Illus: A seventeen-year-old girl made Elvis Presley not just an entertainer, or a mortal. She made him an idol and she literally worshipped him. It is a matter of record that she has seen his movie: • “LOVE ME TENDER” 107 times. • “LOVING YOU” 110 times. • “KING CREOLE” 91 ...read more

We see many differences in God’s church today when we compare it to the New Testament church.
For example, I am sure that if the apostle Paul could come back today and see the excellent buildings we worship in, he would marvel over them and see them as a big improvement compared to what they had worshipped in. But, as big a contrast as that might be, there is a greater difference he would ...read more
