    “jesus: A Portrait Of Servanthood” Series

    Contributed by Dave Mcfadden on Nov 21, 2016
     | 9,909 views

    Through the cross, Christ provided salvation for those who are lost and an example of service for those who are saved.

    As we conclude our Character Tour of the Old Testament, we're looking to the example of Jesus, who shows us what it means to serve God. This is important, because of the command Christ has given to us: "As the Father has sent me, I am sending you." - John 20:21 (NIV) As we consider the example ...read more

    Message four in this exposition of First Timothy describes the gnostic error in the early church that was distorting the New Testament faith. Preaching against them our purposes are to purify the faith and to lead false teachers to Christ

    Message 4 THE BATTLES CHOSEN B. The Faith Protected “Command certain men not to teach false doctrines any longer.” (1:3) “Fight the good fight, holding on to faith”(18,19). Paul uses strong words. He doesn’t tell Timothy to suggest that false teachers stop, ...read more

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jan 26, 2020
     | 4,648 views

    Although situated within the smallest of the seven cities, the church in Thyatira received the longest letter. They were faithful in their labor, but had compromised with false doctrine. Jesus challenged them regarding the toleration of false teaching.

    Thyatira: Corrupted by Compromise Revelation 2: 18-29 Our text deals with the fourth church that Christ addressed in Revelation. While the church in Thyatira was situated within the smallest of the cities the Lord would address, it is interesting that they received the largest letter. The name ...read more

    A Bibilical Deacon

    Contributed by Dwight Kennedy on Feb 22, 2018

     | 10,497 views

    I want us to look at what the BIBLE gives as qualifications of a deacon. Also, the question sometimes comes up, "Do we really need deacons now?" I believe that stems from a misunderstanding of what a deacon should actually be.

    The church has many positions that are filled with Godly men and Godly woman, but the Bible only teaches of two offices: 1) Bishop, Elder, Overseer, or Pastor, and 2) Deacon. Churches today are filled with men who may hold the TITLE of deacon, but their lives disqualify them from actually being a ...read more
