    Drawn By Beauty

    Contributed by Brian Williams on Sep 27, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,862 views

    Where does beauty come from and why are we attracted to it? Why do we as human beings desire to make beautiful creations? The existence of objective beauty points to a God of beauty who loves His creation and desires to give us joy and pleasure.

    Today I will be speaking about how objective beauty points us to the Creator God. We’ll be looking at Psalm 27:4 and Psalm 96:6. One thing I have asked from the LORD, that I shall seek: That I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, To behold the beauty of the LORD and to ...read more

    The Retribution Of God And Combatting Injustice – The Delicate Balance Of Judgment And Mercy – Part 3 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Oct 11, 2023
     | 1,247 views

    For human beings the delicate balance between judgement AND mercy is very hard to maintain and we err one way or the other. God has it absolutely correct. Part 3 looks at that problem, as well as the vengeance and retribution of God. We cover various aspects. “Vengeance is Mine.”

    THE RETRIBUTION OF GOD AND COMBATTING INJUSTICE – THE DELICATE BALANCE OF JUDGMENT AND MERCY – PART 3 THE DELICATE BALANCE OF JUDGMENT AND MERCY – CAN HUMAN BEINGS HANDLE IT? One of the mysteries we only partly understand as Christians is what I might call the balancing of the judgment of God ...read more

    We Are Not Ignorant Of Satan’s Devices Or Schemes – Part 9 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Dec 8, 2023
     | 1,247 views

    Three schemes are examined to see Satan’s division and hurt in the human race. The wide net of PLEASURE is first; followed by the corruption of CHRISTMAS and EASTER; followed by what FEMINISM is doing to our world. These might be hot issues but Satan has created the trouble to damn people

    WE ARE NOT IGNORANT OF SATAN’S DEVICES OR SCHEMES – PART 9 We continue researching the various schemes Satan uses to ensnare, deceive and ruin humanity. The bible says we are not ignorant of Satan’s schemes (devices). We need to recognise them in order to combat them. I have attempted to ...read more

    Sermon # 48 - Words Of Authority Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Aug 29, 2025
     | 85 views

    God has bestowed authority to human beings whom He has created in His own image. This authority was exercised by many men of God all through the bible. However, Jesus was the perfect one whose authority astounded everyone who met or heard Him.

    Today’s meditation is based on Numbers 22:6, “They outnumber us, so please come and put a curse on them for me. Then perhaps we will be able to defeat them and drive them out of the land. I know that when you pronounce a blessing, people are blessed, and when you pronounce a curse, they are placed ...read more

    Haughtiness is a deceptive sin. It's the type of sin that often traps religious people. Do you know how to recognize this sin in your life... and how to protect yourself against it?

    POEM: A lion met a tiger as they drew beside a pool. Said the tiger, "Tell me why you're roaring like a fool" "That's not foolish," said the lion with a twinkle in his eyes. "They call me king of all the beasts because I advertise." A rabbit heard the talking and ran home like a ...read more

    Jesus: How To Be A Follower In Times Of Despair Series

    based on 79 ratings
     | 6,179 views

    Fourth in the series "Meet the Cast." As you study Jesus’ life you realize that even though He did not lay aside his deity, He did humble himself as a man, to serve all humanity. So Jesus understands what we are facing in our lives.

    I love the way “The Passion of The Christ” movie begins, with the reminder that 400 years before Jesus was born his sacrifice was foretold in a vivid way. Isaiah 53:5 (LB) But he was wounded and bruised for our sins. He was beaten that we might have peace; he was lashed--and we were healed! ...read more

    When it comes to studying about love, it is easy to feel under the pile because no human can measure up to the standard of love in 1 Corinthians 13 - and that's because it is God's standard. Thanks be to God that he makes us able, as we give our lives, ho

    How can Christians be united when there are so many things we can’t agree on? That is the wrong question. The real question is, how can we imagine that any of these human differences can break the unity among us that God has already created?

    Do you know what the Zen Buddhist said to the hot dog vendor? "Make me one with everything." English is a remarkably flexible language. You can play wonderful games with it.
