    The Crown Of Life ... For The Humble Or The Rich? Series

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Jul 29, 2015
     | 6,063 views

    Those in humble circumstances and those who are rich undergo testing. This is a continuation of the opening themes of testing, endurance and victory in the first chapter of James.

    Today as we continue in the first chapter of the book of James we will be looking specifically at verses 9 through 12 but before we get into those verses let's read starting at verse one to refresh our minds with what the Lord is saying through James. James 1:1-12 “James, a servant of God ...read more

    Earlier in the first chapter of James much has been said about testing and trials but now James turns his attention to temptation. How are they alike and how are they different, especially since the Greek word is the same for both? Let's take a look!

    James 1:1-15 “James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes scattered among the nations: “Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. ...read more

    God's Not Dead: God's Will Series

    "Why does God allow bad things to happen to good people?" That is the question that many ask to prove that God either does not exist, or He doesn't care. It all comes down to what is and what is not God's will.

    GOD’S NOT DEAD: GOD’S WILL A. In the movie “God’s Not Dead”, the character Josh Wheaten, the Freshman defending his BELIEF in God in Professor Raddison’s philosophy class in, states “Evil is the atheists most potent weapon against ...read more

    In my sermon a couple of weeks ago about statements that we might’ve thought were biblical but aren’t. I have some more statements that we might believe are true but aren’t. Let’s take a look at the misconceptions behind these popular quotes.

    Beauty Perishes

    Contributed by Bala Samson on Dec 6, 2015
     | 3,094 views

    When we ignore God and His power and try to do things in our own power and might, we would wither away quickly! Caveat!

    Beauty perishes! James 1:11”For the sun rises with its scorching heat and withers the grass; its flower falls, and its beauty perishes. So also will the rich man fade away in the midst of his pursuits.” For many years I did not get any flowers from any students, but few students who ...read more

    Good And Perfect Gifts - James 1:16-18 Series

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Aug 12, 2015
    based on 1 rating
     | 7,778 views

    These verses follow teaching on testing and trials. Is it possible that testing and trials could be considered good and perfect gifts from the Father of the heavenly lights? It all depends if you're walking with Him or away from Him.

    (Pastor Steve starts the first section - co-preaching with Pastor Karenlee) The Scripture that we’ll be taking a look at today is … James 1:15-18 “Don’t be deceived, my dear brothers. Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the ...read more

    The Goodness Of God

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Aug 29, 2015
     | 10,095 views

    God is available at all times to hear our prayers, to listen to our concerns and to be touched by the nonverbal communication of our feelings. In return, we must be increasingly acquainted with the voice of God. We must follow God each and every day.

    In the passage from James 1:17-27, James talks about the goodness of God. God doesn’t tempt us to do evil things, but he often uses life’s challenges to strengthen and perfect us. In the process we become more like God. Instead of tempting us to do evil things, God gives us good gifts. ...read more

    The text describes to us, not to forget what manner of person we see in the mirror.

    James 1:17-27 What do I look like? One of the cool things about going to an amusement park or carnival is a visit to the "house of mirrors" or "hall of mirrors." When visitors look at themselves in these mirrors, their images are distorted! Perhaps they're very tall ...read more

    How do we deal with temptations which always creep into our lives?

    We continue our study of the Letter by James in the New Testament. Last week we noted that no matter who that James was, God spoke though him. All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness… 2 Timothy 3:16! We worship with God’s Word and ...read more

     | 6,945 views

    Suffering trials is a strange place to find anyone rejoicing, yet that is the surprising instruction of God for us in Christ.

    At the heart of the gospel is the amazing truth of how God is willing to suffer to redeem us. Jesus experienced firsthand the greatest human trial imaginable. He endured being betrayed by on of the 12 apostles, deserted by all his closest friends and followers, falsely accused, being mocked and ...read more

    Do we have a faith that can be trusted in difficult times?

    Can You Trust Your Faith? James 1:2-8 Someone once said, “A faith that can’t be tested can’t be trusted.” That is precisely what God’s Word is telling us in our text. James is encouraging us to understand that faith must be, and will be tested. But let’s think ...read more
