     | 6,108 views

     | 4,192 views

    Acts 5 gives us two cases where the church faced hardship. One was internal and the other was external. Both were used by God for the good of the church. How can that happen for us today?

Acts 5 gives us two stories about threats to the church, one from the inside and the other from the outside. First. The threat from the inside produced two deaths and great fear upon the whole ...read more

    Contributed by Lynn Malone on Apr 6, 2018
     | 7,993 views

    A message delivered on Confirmation Sunday dealing with the challenge of our commitment, the cost of our commitment and the constancy of our commitment.

    Confirmation Sunday. We do it every year around this time of year. One would think as often as we do it we would have a better understanding of what it is, but as a pastor, I often get the question, “What is confirmation?” The word confirmation literally means “with firm-ness.” Confirmation means ...read more

  • What Would You Have Me To Do?

    Contributed by Charlie Roberts on Apr 6, 2018
    based on 3 ratings
     | 10,085 views

    Pick your battles wisely...make the right choice. That was some good advice, because the only thing more scandalous than believing God can do everything, is fighting against God when He is doing what He said He would do!

    What would you have me to do? Mark 4:35-41 MSG 35-38. Late that day he said to them, “Let’s go across to the other side.” They took him in the boat as he was. Other boats came along. A huge storm came up. Waves poured into the boat, threatening to sink it. And Jesus was in the stern, head on a ...read more

    We often change the way we use words over time. One such word is freedom. Today we see what it means to really be free. Sermon originally presented on Independence Day.

    Our language is constantly changing, words take on new meanings, while a word may mean one thing to this person over here, it might mean something completely different. Sometimes that word takes on different connotation because of something that has happened in our lives. Irene Hannon wrote a ...read more

  • Witness Of Forgiveness

    based on 49 ratings
     | 16,951 views

    Sometimes even the best of Christians may be faced with a particular circumstance, and they will decide (for themselves) what is right and what is wrong. Actually, without even talking to God about it.

    WITNESSES OF FORGIVENESS This morning I want to talk about obedience in being a Christian. Sometimes even the best of Christians may be faced with a particular circumstance, and they will decide (for themselves) what is right and what is wrong.

    There are two different topics to explore in this message: The reasons to stay faithful to God during a persecution, and, the role of deacons (or elders or servants) in the church. All of these come as a result of the faithfulness of the early believers, and should be an encouragement for us.

  • Have We Lost Our Churches To Worldliness? Series

    Contributed by Eric Agyei Febiri on May 18, 2023
     | 1,848 views

    Churches are expected to guide and form the conscience of society and people by pointing out the truth without fear or favour. Some of our churches today however, have lost their moral authority to the world because of power, fame, and money by their leaders.

    Morality is now measured by the votes of the Senate and the Parliament, and not the individual conscience. Civil authorities and those in power now vote to decide what is sin and what is not sin, what is lawful and what is unlawful. And this has now crept into our Churches, but Church leaders ...read more

  • An Outline Of Acts 5:17-42

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on May 6, 2021
     | 3,076 views

    The apostles were taken into custody another time and stood trial the next day. Compare what Peter said, and what Gamaliel said, as responses to the charges! This outline is revised from one I used in preaching a miniseries on Acts several years ago.

    Introduction: the apostles were healing people, through the power of God, so much that even people from outside Jerusalem were bringing their sick folks there for healing. Verses 12-16 give a brief summary of these activities. All of this no doubt led to the high priest and others taking action to ...read more
