    The Church is God's amazing plan. We must not discount the importance of being called into that church through Christ.

    To be a top Soldier in the Army of the Lord, one cannot often be AWOL from formation. Excessive absenteeism from Church leads to a weak line of defense against the battles of everyday life in the ungodly environment we face in this world.

    Have you been in any battles lately? Did you win, or were you put down? Sometimes it seems that our daily walk with the Lord is definitely a form of warfare. In your biggest battle, were you about ready to surrender and give it up? Some folks do. Some give up without a fight, some give up after a ...read more

     | 11,305 views

    One of the most difficult attributes for us to understand as humans is the holiness of God. This sermon attempts to describe it, but like all others, cannot do the subject justice!

    If you want to know or learn more about God, one of the most important things you need to learn about Him is that He is Holy. His holiness is probably one of the most prominent attribute that is talked about in scripture. The word “holy” is mentioned over 600 times in the Bible. He is ...read more

    Jude speaks about the coming Judgment and how it's only by God's mercy that we are considered saints, or holy ones.

    “Oh, when the saints go marching in Oh, when the saints go marching in Lord I want to be in that number When the saints go marching in.” Do you know what that song is about? Here’s a clue: it wasn’t originally a pep song for sports teams called the “Saints.” ...read more

    Holy Armor

    This sermon (preached the Sunday after the 2009 ELCA Churchwide Assembly) illustrates the Ephesians "Armor of God" imagery with the actions of the ELCA.

    Several weeks ago, when I chose today’s Ephesians text to be my preaching text, I didn’t realize that the text corresponded with the weekend after our ChurchWide Assembly and how absolutely appropriate it would be today to talk about Holy Armor. Many of you have noticed that our ...read more

    The 4th Article of Faith for the Church of the Nazarene.

    I believe that it is important to state what we believe up front and with full disclosure. Watch out for places of worship where they are unwilling to tell you what they actually believe. If they are hiding something, they are likely a cult. Cults are religions that are at least somewhat related ...read more

    Salvation is the greatest moment in any individual's life, but we must realize that salvation is not an event at a single moment in time. Salvation is the beginning of a life-long journey with the Lord.

    The Call: Holiness

    Contributed by John Ong on Nov 22, 2017
     | 3,872 views

    Regardless of how dirty you’ve been in the past, God’s cleansing power cleanse you and makes you like new. Now that you know this, do not let the devil and his lies lead you away from the great plan that God has for you.

    These days it is rare for people to pursue Holiness. For them it is something unreachable. And as Christians, God’s call for us in 1 Peter 1:16 is to “be holy for I am holy” but right now what’s happening is the opposite. Morality is on a decline– we have accepted “complicated” as a normal status, ...read more

    1 Peter 1:13–16 One man described his observations of the concept of holiness like this: There is a simple yet profound word which occurs nine hundred times in the Bible. You see it first in Genesis, as we are told how God created heaven and earth. You see it last in the closing chapter of ...read more
