    How can we get a hearing in lost society? How can we create in environment for effective evangelism? How can we project a true image of ourselves, and, more importantly, the God we serve? How can we defuse and influence a hostile society, family member

    We all wear masks, which puts us in danger of losing our real selves. Jesus shows us how to be real as He deals with threatening people, hostile people, and those whose hearts are full of pain. Montgomery Hills Baptist Church

    When you wear a mask – not a Halloween costume mask, but a personality mask, a way-of-being mask – when you wear a mask, you not only hide from others, but you also hide from yourself. You lose your real self. And that is a huge loss. It is crucial to get real with yourself. The poet Paul ...read more

    5 – 6 The Field of Operation: we have a specific field of operation and Jesus doesn’t send us out on the big stuff until training us on the small. 7 The Message: we are to say what Jesus said: the kingdom of God is at hand.

    There is a lot of stuff out there claiming to be Christian, when it's not really Christian. It's a difficult situation for any real Christ follower. On one side you have a culture and society growing progressively more hostile toward Christian values.

    Traveling over a 1,000 miles thru hostile tribes, broad rivers, & trackless deserts, only by night, risking death or slavery, three SEEKERS risked everything to meet Jesus. The Holy Spirit led them until they came face to face with God!

    THE THREE SEEKERS Mt. 2:1-11 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR #1 1. This week I heard about a minister who delivered a sermon in twenty minutes one Sunday morning -- about half the usual length of his sermons. 2.

    God does judge nations, cities, churches, families. If we refuse to pursue His glory, there is nothing left for God but to hold us accountable.

    The news is particularly dark today—disrespect among the youth of the nation; increasing sexual assault in which even infants and toddlers are violated; violent crime increasing; external threats to national economic security; rising social unrest centring around linguistic and racial issues. ...read more

    Before Zerubbabel can lead into the future, God must rebuild his faith and confidence. Zerubbabel is leading in a hostile environment with rumors of his enemies plaguing his mind. How could a governor so limited and weak protect God’s people? God rebuild the man!

    Hag 2:18-23 “Consider from this day onward, from the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month. Since the day that the foundation of the LORD's temple was laid, consider: 19 Is the seed yet in the barn? Do the vine, the fig tree, the pomegranate, and the olive tree still yield nothing?

     | 12,100 views

    This characteristic of love appears to be rather out-of-date. I mean, we are living in a world that is torn apart by all kinds of hatreds, national conflicts, racial strife, class warfare, & even religious hostility. Yet Paul says, "Love is not rude."

    The Contention Is Over

     | 275 views

    Your season of contention is giving way to a season of fruitfulness. Like Isaac, you may have faced opposition, envy, and rejection, but keep digging. Don’t settle at Esek (strife) or Sitnah (hostility). God is leading you to Rehoboth—a place of peace, purpose, and prosperity.

    THE CONTENTION IS OVER By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Genesis 26:18-22 "And he removed from thence, and digged another well; and for that they strove not: and he called the name of it Rehoboth; and he said, For now the LORD hath made room for us, and we shall be fruitful in the ...read more
