The Right Way To Fast Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Oct 2, 2023

This message looks at what Jesus has to say about our physical appearance when fasting. The way we present ourselves physically can speak volumes about the inner man. Who are we trying to impress when we fast? Jesus or the people around us?

I have entitled our message this morning, “The Right Way to Fast.” Jesus both practiced fasting and taught about it; and yet, fasting is something that is often feared and misunderstood. In many Christian circles, you rarely even hear about fasting; and yet, the Scripture mentions it more times ...read more

No Longer Slaves But Sons

Contributed by Owen Bourgaize on Apr 20, 2001

Paul’s converts in Galatia were compromising the purity of the Gospel and their liberty in Christ so he tells them What we were under the Law, What God did in Jesus, What God has made us as sons and What we now should be.

Many of the letters written by Paul, the Apostle, were the results of controversy. His letter to the church at Galatia is no exception. The local believers were on the verge of being sidetracked from the truth of the Gospel. Paul had to do something about it. "Stay on course", he urged them. ...read more

More Precious Than Gold

Contributed by Antonius Fu on May 8, 2023

By God's grace, we receive the faith to believe in Him. And by His protection, when our faith is tested, it produces the purity of life. A life with a new quality, a life into a living hope and an inheritance kept for us in Heaven, this is a new life that is more precious than gold.

Today we are going to meditate on God's word taken from I Peter 1:3-9. with the topic More precious than gold.

He Loves Me, He Loves Me Not

Contributed by Dale Pilgrim on Mar 2, 2008

The cry of the inner child remains the same. We desperately want someone to love us. Love me for me. Charles Spurgeon (English preacher of the 19th century) said, “God chose me before I was born; for he never would have chosen me afterwards!”

The childish art of love – pulling the petals from a flower and reciting, “(s)he loves me, (s)he loves me not” – left love to chance. Even rigged it because if you start a certain way you end up where you want to – “(s)he love me!” Prance off feeling hopeful that love has a chance! The cry of the ...read more
