    Grieving The Holy Spirit Series

    Contributed by Arthur Miller on Apr 5, 2014
     | 6,153 views

    What does it mean to Grieve the Holy Spirit? How does finite man grieve infinite God? Eph. 4:30 seems strange at first glance, but we will see that this verse fits in perfectly with the rest of the passage.

    All verses from the Bible Gateway NIV and NASV. The Christian Walk 101 – Grieving the Holy Spirit Opening The next lesson in this series on Christianity 101 may seem on the surface to be out of step with what has been discussed before. Here we have the apostle Paul telling us to speak ...read more

    Finding Freedom From Sin Series

     | 13,978 views

    Because of our relationship with Christ, we are enabled to live righteously and able not to live in sin. Thanks to the grace of God we are forgiven, freed, and enabled to yield our selves to Him and His service

    ROMANS 6: 15-20 FINDING FREEDOM FROM SIN The previous verses taught that each man has one of two masters. Man will serve God, or man will serve sin. Sin is the most devastating, debilitating, degenerating power that ever entered creation. Sin is the terrible, life wrecking, soul-damning reality ...read more

    The Psalmist tells us why we give glory to God alone. 1- Because God is loving and faithful 2- Because God is the one true God 3- Because God remembers and blesses

    INTRO.- ILL. - At the conclusion of the sermon, the worshipers filed out of the sanctuary to greet the minister. As one of them left, he shook the minister's hand, thanked him for the sermon and said, "Thanks for the message, Reverend. You know, you must be smarter than Einstein." Beaming with ...read more

     | 12,983 views

    This message explores the concept of crying out to God observed in Scripture.

    “Crying Out To God” Selected Passages It seems that it normally takes a severe crisis in our life before we truly cry out to God from the depths of our heart. Our relationship with God seems to have lost a real passion. We have lost the sense of desperation regarding our own condition as well as ...read more

    Would you like to know the will of God for your life? Paul, in his letter to the Romans, tells us that we need to rewire our minds in order to enable us to better discover what that might be.

    “I appeal to you therefore, brothers and sisters, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your minds, so that you may discern what ...read more

     | 23,548 views

    What will our destiny be? It will be what God designed it to be - an eternity of joy for those who love & follow Him; & an eternity of separation for those who reject His love & turn their back to Him.

    MELVIN NEWLAND, MINISTER RIDGE CHAPEL, KANSAS, OK TEXT: Revelation 21:1-28; John 14:1-3; Matthew 25:46 ILL.

    The Limits Of Tolerance

    Contributed by Scott Maze on May 24, 2021
     | 4,074 views

    There’s been a shift in American thought over the past several decades. America historically stood for the right to express any opinion. Where we used to believe that you should tolerate my views even when they were false but now, we believe it is wrong to call anybody’s views’ false.

    Find the book of Jude with me. There are books in your Bible and there are letters in your Bible, but you could probably think of Jude more like a postcard. There’s been a shift in American thought over the past several decades. America historically stood for the right to express any opinion. ...read more

     | 5,887 views

    Peter shared the works of God in saving the Gentiles in Cornelius' house. This is the will of God. It brings challenges the church will have to grapple with, but the truth is, God will make the Jews and Gentiles one in Christ.

    Good morning. Glad to be able to meet up again and remember our Lord together as a Body of Christ. We celebrate God’s goodness and lovingkindness despite the challenges. • Let us praise God with Psalm 47 before we look into Acts 11. 1 Clap your hands, all you nations; shout to God with cries of ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,211 views

    This message looks at aspects of the wrath of God where the subject is examined. The great truth is that Christians will never enter the wrath of God because the Saviour bore that wrath for each of us.

    MESSAGE 7 - 1 THESSALONIANS CHAPTER 5 – NOW WE LOOK AT THE WRATH OF GOD AND SALVATION – PART 1 (Verse 9) DESTINED NOT FOR WRATH, BUT FOR SALVATION {{1Thessalonians 5:9 “God has not destined us for wrath, but for obtaining salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ.”}} We will consider just this ...read more

     | 4,534 views

    We see the transforming power of the Gospel when the Gentiles listened and believed in the Name of Jesus Christ. The Gospel has to do with Jesus of Nazareth.

    Good morning. Let’s commit this time to the Lord in prayer. Our gracious Father, we come to worship you, our Creator and Redeemer. Thank you for reconciling us back to You through Your Son, Jesus. Thank you for loving us and watching over us. Let us praise You as long as we live and honour ...read more

    Be Present Among The Lost Series

     | 5,196 views

    Some believers insist on keeping a safe distance from the lost, afraid of being contaminated by their behavior or being seen as guilty by association; and so they fail to share their faith with the ones who actually need their help.

    It is my desire to preach on real issues that we deal with as believers, so here’s a real observation to start off with: Some believers act like once they have received God’s forgiveness and been saved from their sins by the blood of Jesus Christ that they’re somehow better than the lost. However, ...read more
