Contributed by John Gaston on Jun 19, 2022

The Book of Revelation, chapters 4-5, have a power message: Jesus Christ is at the center of the throne of God, and of the universe, and He should be the center of our lives. He alone has triumphed. He alone is worthy. Let us join heaven in celebrating His triumph!

Jesus Or Barabbas? Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Sep 15, 2021

Good Friday: Each and every person who cried out for Barabbas to be released was as guilty as he. And we too are just as guilty, for it was on account of our sins that He was slain.

Good Friday is coming up this week; so, this morning we’re going to focus on an event surrounding Jesus’ trial and crucifixion. We will be examining the account of Jesus and Barabbas, and this is apparently a significant event because it is shared in all four of the gospels. The other locations ...read more

Running To Jesus

Contributed by Thomas Andrufski on Mar 17, 2021

When a sinner realizes that they are lost and understand the meaning of salvation, they should RUN to Jesus and not delay. There are several examples of men in the New Testament who actually ran to Jesus.

Jesus Is Alive!

Contributed by Tim Melton on Mar 22, 2021

Eternal life has already begun and the Father will raise us up as He did Christ. Because of this, live for eternity. Remember the truths we know. Persevere through “Saturday” trusting God’s faithfulness. Rejoice! Jesus Christ has risen indeed!

Can you imagine what it must have been like for the followers of Jesus on Saturday, the day after Jesus had been crucified? All was lost. Jesus was dead. They had given up everything to follow Jesus.

Jesus On Trial

Contributed by Gordon Pike on Mar 25, 2021

Jesus stepped into a maelstrom and was brought before a court that was losing some of its power and was uncertain about its future given Rome’s growing power and the increasing fear and rising tension amongst the Jewish people.

I love the Gospel of Mark … well, I love all the gospels … but Mark reminds me of Joe Friday from the 1950s TV series “Dragnet.” Some of us older folks remember Sargent Friday’s famous signature line: “Just the facts.” Mark’s gospel is terse and to the point. He gives us “just the facts” and ...read more

Fanatic For Jesus Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 1, 2021

Paul's point is that when your life is devoted to the highest you can't lose, for even if you die it is not loss, but gain. Fanaticism for Christ is the only perfect fanaticism, for it is the only fanaticism that is a no lose situation.

In Tiger Of The Snows Tenzig Norgay is a fanatic for mountain climbing. He and a British companion were going to climb Mt. Everest. His wife did not share his enthusiasm, and she felt he was obsessed. "You are a dare devil," she said, "And you care nothing about what your death ...read more
