    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on May 26, 2025

    God is not just a God of addition—He is the God of increase. From the very beginning, He blessed man and commanded him to “be fruitful and multiply.” Increase is the natural outflow of God’s blessing upon a life, and it is in His nature to multiply what we commit into His hands.

Samuel Arimoro Main Text: 1 Corinthians 3:6-7 Supporting Texts: Psalm 115:14, Genesis 1:28, Deuteronomy 1:11, John 15:5, Isaiah 55:10-11 INTRODUCTION: God is not just a God of addition—He is the God of increase.

    based on 31 ratings
     | 13,135 views

    God gives every human being exactly 86,400 seconds every day. This message focuses on the importance of "Godly" as opposed to "human arithmetic" in numbering our days.

    Contributed by Eric Hanson on Aug 14, 2007
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,885 views

    The idea of Inalienable rights is rooted in Genesis and the fact that human beings are created in the image of God. Neither Secular Humanism or Islam recognize this. This message looks at this in an instructional way.

    INALIENABLE RIGHTS Pastor Eric J. Hanson November 26th 2006 A message like this one can stand alone, but I strongly suggest that each one listening to Inalienable Rights also get a CD or tape of my message from two weeks prior to this one.

    Three Of The Oldest Church Traditions Series

     | 6,008 views

    Because the disciples were very human, and because human nature hasn’t changed, they exemplified three established traditions that are every bit as common in the church today.

    Three of the Oldest Church Traditions (Mark 10:32-45) 1. We all live within the boundaries of routines and patterns; but they do not always hold true. 2.
