Sermon # 11 - Our God Given Authority Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Apr 2, 2024

There is an authority that God has bestowed on us as His children which many of us are not aware of. If we can understand who we are in Christ, our lives will change and so will the situations around us.

We read in Numbers 23:24, “The nation of Israel is like a mighty lion: It doesn't rest until it has torn and devoured, until it has drunk the blood of those it has killed.” (GNB) Though this verse seems strange these are the words that were spoken by the Prophet Balaam about the people of ...read more

The Fulfillment Of The Promise To David Series

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Dec 19, 2022

David feels pretty embarrassed that he and his family are living in a cedar-paneled palace, while the sanctuary of the Lord is, well, just an elaborate tent.

Christmas Novena December 24 There is no special “O” antiphon today, because this evening the Church kind of stops its Advent preparation and sings “when the sun rises” we will see the Lord coming forth like a bridegroom from His chamber. So we heard the ancient tale from the days of the flawed ...read more

Celebrating A Timeless Jesus At Christmas Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Apr 7, 2024

Christmas was just the beginning of a round-trip that Jesus took from heaven to earth and back to heaven. Jesus went from sitting on a throne, to laying in a manger, to hanging on a tree. He went from being a king with a crown, to a baby with diapers, to a criminal on the cross

Today we have the privilege of working through Ephesians 2:11-22. Let's turn there, and read just the first word. "Therefore." What "therefore" signals, is that Paul is going to draw some conclusions, and an application, from everything he's just said. But it's ...read more

Worthy Is The Lamb! (Revelation 5)

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Feb 8, 2024

The Lord Jesus Christ has all things and events under His Divine and Sovereign control. He has the final word on how everything will conclude. No amount of evil on the world's part will stop Him from His mission to "make all things new".

I sometimes think that when we study the book of Revelation, we tend to focus upon the impending judgments of the wicked and the horrendous consequences that follow. While God's wrath is certainly a major theme of the book, we must remember that the book of Revelation is also a book of ...read more

What Was The Real Reason For Palm Sunday? And The Donkey’s Special Part! A Palm Sunday Message Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Mar 7, 2024

How does the donkey feature in the Palm Sunday account? Its story is interesting. We look at the prophetic Psalm 118; the entry Jesus made into Jerusalem; Isaac; and how that connects with His yet future Jerusalem entry at the Second Coming when He rides on the white horse not a donkey.

Jesus, Our Healer

Contributed by Hans Krause on Oct 19, 2018

Jesus has the power to heal us from every physical and mental disease. But he doesn't always use that power. Often, what we need more is to be healed from our spiritual blindness.

Speaking With Authority

The King ... Or Just A Fancy Look-A-Like?

Contributed by Allan Quak on Dec 7, 2005

When Jesus came into Jerusalem riding on a donkey the whole town presumed that He would take up the throne of the Messiah in Jerusalem – instead He went to the temple and cleared it out. Is this really the King that the Scriptures tell us about?
