    As the years roll by we all tend to increasingly have questions about life. As Christians we know the general answers to the age-old questions, “Who am I?’ Where did I come from?” “Why am I here?” “Where am I going?”

    The Christian Life James 4:13-15 “Go to now, ye that say, To day or to morrow we will go into such a city, and continue there a year, and buy and sell, and get gain: Whereas ye know not what [shall be] on the morrow.

    God Sees You, Not Only As What You Are, But As What You Are Becoming

    When Jesus met Simon, he named him "Peter", or "Rock", even though Peter's character at that time was decidedly un-rocklike. But Jesus saw what he would become, just as he sees as, not only as we are but as what we will become in Him.

    The first thing we notice in these seven verses is the number of references to stones. Living stones. Precious stones. Corner stones. Stones that are chosen by God but rejected by men. A stone that causes people to stumble and fall. Now, think about that for a moment. Why would that be? Why would ...read more

     | 1,452 views

    Even with a strong knowledge of the Word and a close relationship with the Father, you and I are still susceptible to being tempted by and succumbing to the allures of the world and its lust of the flesh, lust of the eyes, and the boastful pride of life.

    I am talking about the FALSE, FAKE, FIBBING preachers who are not feeding the flock of God but are fleecing the flock of God!!!

    In order to recognize these FALSE, FAKE, FIBBING preachers I want to preach about the gift of DISCERNMENT. The gift of Discernment is one of the nine gifts that that we find in the Bible.

    God wants us to recognize the grace He has bestowed on us, appreciate the gift He has blessed us with, and set out to diligently and faithfully carry out the work He has entrusted into our hands.

    In Matthew 25: 14-30, Jesus told a parable of a man who gave talents to three of his servants. The first received 5 talents, the second servant 2 talents and the third was given 1 talent.

    We live in a world that has no idea what mercy really is or any desire to show it. Jesus has a much better way for those in His Kingdom, 'Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy."

    What Is Really True In The World? Hell, Faith, And Heaven

    Today, though, the Lord gave me a three-fold message that he wants me to share. First of all, we're going to talk about hell, then we're going to talk about Jesus Christ and the gospel, then we're going to talk about heaven.

    If I go to my bank account and say, "well, I don't know what's true" that's not going to work. There will be an amount listed. It's either correct or it isn't. That's how it is with history. That's how it is with science. That's how it is with archaeology. ...read more

    In this exposition of Jesus's 8th Beatitude ("Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake"), we explore biblical revelation as to why persecution is a blessing, more specifically, what are the benefits of persecution for God's people.

We see it in the first family; it runs all through the Old and New Testaments; and in the ...read more
