    I would like to thank Pastor Jerry Shirley for sharing this series on Acts. It has been a blessing as well as a great help. I have used these for our church, as I spend my days caring for my dying father.

    The Bible is straightforward in saying that lying is a sin and is offensive to God.

    ACTS 5:1-11 SHARES THE STORY OF ANANIAS AND SAPPHIRA… But there was a certain man named Ananias who, with his wife, Sapphira, sold some property.

     | 3,910 views

    Why do christians get caught up in spiritual competition? It usually leads to hypocrisy and many times ends up even worse. Take a deeper look at this matter that is a revival stopper or a revival maker.

    The Plot that went to Rot Acts 5:1-11 1 ¶ Pero cierto hombre llamado Ananías, juntamente con Safira su mujer, vendió una posesión.

     | 10,890 views

    Many love the Lord but do not have the fear of the Lord in their heart. They take God for granted and treat Him with contempt. We need to honour Him with reverence and respect.

    The church was enjoying the presence of the Lord, since Pentecost. • Acts 4:32-35 says all the believers were one in heart and mind. They shared everything they had. Needs were met. The apostles continued to preach with great power. The church was doing well. Acts 4:36-37 Joseph, a Levite ...read more

    Having ambition is good but when you use it to stand well in the sight of others and greed is in your heart, that ambition added with greed can lead to deceit and hypocrisy.

    The Man Who Dropped Dead In Church

     | 10,786 views

    God would rather have a small church that is pure than a large church whose commitment is watered down. With electricity, the larger the connection(wire), the more power can flow through it. This is true of the purity of the church.

     | 16,498 views

    What keeps you from giving everything to God? Check out two sets of people who were following Christ and made two different decisions about their lives, causing two different outcomes.

    This morning I want us to look at two sets of people: one set held nothing back from God, and God used them to change their world and ours too. The other set, not so much. Because they kept something back from God, their lives came to a quick end. Before we look into the lives and circumstances ...read more

    Offering - What Offering?

    Dynamics and Dimensions of Offering in New Testament context. For majority of Christians, the word 'offering' quickly invokes thoughts of money... but offering in true scriptural perspective is hardly ever about funds colection on a Sinday church service.

    Majority of Christians have been wrongly churched to be just about as materialistic as the unbelievers however this sermon isn't about money but rather targeted at attacking money-centric error with the subject matter of 'offering' and to dismantle those, in Jesus’ name.
