    This world has always been a dangerous place for Christians. In John 15 Jesus said the world would hate His followers

    TRAVELING THROUGH THIS WORLD OF SORROW TEXT: PSALM 20:1-2; 7 INTRODUCTION: The song, “I Want to Know More About My Lord,” was written by Lee Roy Abernathy.

    A deeper look into 1 John 4:17-18, exploring the concept of God's love and how it helps us overcome fear.

The Bible has a lot to say about fear. We are told to fear the Lord, but not to fear anything else. In 1 John 4:18, John tells us ...read more

    When you consider our topic, it is a prayer and not an instruction or a commandment. it reveals the critical need element in all of us and the desperate state of human depravity without the Savior and without divine help because we all need help.

    I first preached this message in 2006, five unique variations in five different services. And with each one, I was profoundly blessed by the inexhaustible dimensions through which the same Scripture revealed Christ. One text. One Christ. Multiple perspectives. This particular message is the ...read more

    No one seems to be excited about the topic of Hell. Even God's not keen on it. But it's crucial to our message of hope for the lost. What is it about Hell we need to know and that we need to tell others?

    Does anyone know what the worst fire in American History was? Most people would say it was the great Chicago Fire in 1871.

    It is increasingly apparent that we are living in the end times. The return of our Lord is drawing closer with each passing day. As we move through these last days, it is good to have biblical instruction regarding them. John provides needed insight.

    This sermon discusses the unity Jesus prayed for his people in John 17. It is the kind of koininia exemplified in the Trinity. This unity occurs because of change of heart rather than a change of organizational structure.

    What Jesus Desires John 17:10-11,20-23 2-20-02 This morning we want to talk about - What Jesus Desires as Reflected in John 17. We are prone to focus is on what we desire and how we can receive what we want and need from the Lord. That’s not wrong. God tells us to delight ourselves in Him and ...read more

    Jesus' Divinity was shown in the healing of a man on the Sabbath Day (John 5:16) and declaring Himself equal with God (John 5:17-18). The religious authorities sought to kill Him yet should have honored Him. Their failure to do so condemned them. Don't make that mistake.

    The Scriptures tell of the authority and power the Lord Jesus has over His creation and the affairs of humanity. The four gospels present what Jesus said and did to demonstrate to those who were willing to truly hear and see that He was the fulfillment of prophecy and the One who was the ...read more
