Balaam

Contributed by Lee Henry on Jul 14, 2006

Forgive Others As We Have Been Forgiven

God has forgiven us. The blood of Jesus washes us clean. God does not hold our sins against us, so we should be like Jesus and forgive those who sin against us. Such is our duty and such is our witness.

MATTHEW’s GOSPEL chap 18 verses 21-35 and LUKE 17: 3b-5 Sermon: Forgive as we have been forgiven. Q.1 How many times have WE sinned? Answer 1 something like countless times. Q.2 How many times has God forgiven US? Answer 2 probably also – countless times, but once for every time we ...read more

Extraordinary Vitality Series

Contributed by Brad Bailey on Jul 21, 2009

Paul was able to really assess all he had put confidence in… concludes that knowing Christ who holds the power of eternal risen life… and even to share in his sufferings as part of knowing him… was the greatest purpose and pleasure life offered.

What is at the center of your life? Hard question to answer… some of us may be honestly divided … some of us may know what we believe should be… but the longer we reflect on the question…. The more we realize that we may not be as centered as we’d like to believe. Show me a centered life… and ...read more

The Next Five Minutes

Contributed by Grant Van Boeschoten on Jan 3, 2012

If you were offered 5 million dollars for the next 5 minutes of your life, with no holds barred, would you make the deal? How much more should we live in the light of Eternity when our life on earth is but the blink of an eye.

We are going to set up the title of this message by going through a scenario. Imagine with me that there is a knock at the door, we go over to it, open it up, and in walks a man with a beautiful Armani suit, a fedora hat, and big smile on. “I have great news for you,” he says. ...read more

Go The First Ten Feet

Contributed by Thomas Clawser on Apr 8, 2017

Self-denial is to be lifted with Jesus—and the first ten feet of his ascent is on the Cross. You cannot reach for Jesus without letting go of the things you’re holding onto. Make it your passion to go the first ten feet with Jesus.

"When I am lifted-up," Jesus said, "I will draw all people to myself." And just in case you are tempted to interpret this up-lifted status to mean something glitzy, John sticks in a little commentary in verse 33 to make clear that the "lifting up" Jesus had in mind was the cross. Ultimately Jesus ...read more

The Gospel. Part 4: What Happens If We Reject Jesus?

Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Nov 24, 2020

Without Jesus in our lives, sin takes hold; weeds start to grow up in the garden of our lives. But the consequences for eternity are much more serious. However, does scripture really lead us to expect the 'pains of hell for ever'?

Please note. The passage for this talk is Matthew 25:31-46, however the main focus of the talk is v.46. Part 4: What happens if we reject Jesus? Today we have the fourth and last talk in my series on the gospel. We’re thinking about the question, ‘What happens if we reject Jesus?’ Quite a ...read more

When There Is Persecution Series

Contributed by Allan Quak on May 22, 2020

Persecution, and the emotions which come when we think about persecution, do not naturally cause us to feel blessed. Yet, when we stand firm in Jesus, we can hold on in strength to Jesus who is sovereign when we are persecuted.

Secret Of Joy Series

Contributed by Pastor Renji George on May 30, 2024

How helpless is man though he holds position, power, wealth and fame! Not knowing what is lying ahead, all he has are a loan from his creator God- leaving everything here on this side of the eternity when he departs this world.

Live today! Never miss today’s blessings. God is a God of present tense. He calls Himself “ I am that I am”.
