First Born From The Dead Series

Contributed by Robert Higgins on Apr 15, 2008

Jesus is so much more. He is not a “copy” of God, and he is not a facsimile of God, Jesus is the exact visible image of the invisible God. And as such, He is the author of our family...the family of God.

Today, we celebrate Easter, the incredible event in which Jesus Christ, who died on our behalf, rose again from the dead. But we really aren’t celebrating an event, but rather a Person. We aren’t worshipping an event, but a Person. For us to grasp the significance of Easter, we really need to ...read more

Knowledge Puffs Up But Love Edifies

Contributed by Mitch Davis on Jun 22, 2007

We all have knowledge (or, at least we think we do) but such does not build up the body of Christ. Too many professing Christianity actually tear down the body of Christ with their knowledge instead of building it up with the love God demands.

Knowledge Puffs Up But Love Edifies Theme: Considering the conscience of your brother. 1 Corinthians 8 INTRODUCTION A. Within the body of Christ will arise issues that are deemed doctrinal by some and opinion by others. 1. Both sides believe they have the truth on the divisive subject. 2. Such was ...read more

Your Body Is Not A Rental Car (1 Corinthians 6:12-20) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Feb 10, 2022

Jesus purchased all of you-- body, soul, and spirit-- through the cross. So your body is designed for him, and not sexual immorality. Flee sexual immorality, then.

When I was at Bethel Seminary, I had to write a paper on 1 Corinthians 6:12-20. I remember thinking that it was a horrible, difficult passage. The kind of passage professors give students, in part to mess with them. I remember being really unhappy with it, and never feeling like I quite got it ...read more

Responding To The Sovereign Christ Series

Contributed by Dr. Jerry N. Watts on Jul 10, 2011

John gives us a picture of how we are to respond to the "Glorified Christ." John ’vision’ of the glorified Christ is stunning and revealing.

The Unveiling Responding To the Sovereign Christ Revelation 1:9-18 At the end of every service, we have (what we term) the invitation, the altar call, or even the time of decision. This morning I submit that every time you hear a word from HIS word, you make a decision. Believing that God speaks ...read more

Return To Sanity

Contributed by Steven Simala Grant on Jun 5, 2012

Pride is devastating to the life of God within us, primarily because it focuses us on ourselves and tricks us into believing that the good things of life are somehow produced by us or are given to us because we are so great or so worthy or so important.

Return to Sanity Dan 4 Mar 11, 2012 Intro: A young woman was seeking some help: Pastor, I have a besetting sin, and I want your help. I come to church on Sunday and can’t help thinking I’m the prettiest girl in the congregation. I know I ought not to think that, but I can’t ...read more

The Gift Of Music

Contributed by Rich Anderson on Feb 13, 2011

We are to make a joyful noise unto the Lord. When we worship we should sing praises to God, glorifying Him and honoring His Name. Music is a channel of divine blessing, comfort and strength. Even in the depths of suffering, we can turn our hearts and v

We are a church that loves to sing. I know there are those of you who have trouble participating when we sing, because you feel your voice isn’t worthy. I once read of a man who approached his Pastor and said; “you haven’t heard how poorly I sing. I know the Bible says ...read more

Lord's People & Lord's Table

Contributed by Gary Birch on Jul 14, 2006

What does it mean to be a gathering of followers of Jesus and how does that link with Communion.

A catholic priest in a large and sprawling suburban parish began his Sunday worship by saying, ‘First let’s all introduce ourselves to one another. Turn to those who are seated near you and tell them who you are and find out who they are, for it would be a great shame to gather and not meet one ...read more

Who Gets The Glory?

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Aug 31, 2016

There are great accounts of victory in the Bible. Some of the favorites are found in the opening chapters of the book of Daniel. We tend to see Daniel, Shadrach, Mechach and Abednego as heroes, but Who is the real hero in the Bible?

God IS Glorious! Just listen to these verses! Psalm 8:1 NIV “O LORD, our Lord, how majestic is Your name in all the earth! You have set Your glory in the heavens.” Psalm 108:5 NIV “Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; let Your glory be over all the earth.” 1 ...read more

Who Is Your Epaphras?

Contributed by Johnny Knight on Jan 26, 2010

I have often said the greatest gift God has given to us (second only to Jesus) is the Church. There are so many benefits to being not only a part of the body of Christ on the earth, but a part of a local body of believers. There is encouragement and help,
