    The sedate, stately ritual of the evening sacrifice was now suddenly shattered by his loud cries of joy and praise. And you can’t rightly blame them. It is God’s desire that all His children experience this joy.

    The Resurrection - The Devoted Women At The Tomb – Resurrection Message For Easter – Part 2 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Mar 29, 2023
     | 1,645 views

    How could the disciples be so thick that they would not believe the resurrection? Disbelief translated all the truth of the women’s testimony and joy to nonsense. As the fact of the resurrection spread, joy and excitement replaced the sorrow and defeatism they all had.

    THE RESURRECTION - THE DEVOTED WOMEN AT THE TOMB – RESURRECTION MESSAGE FOR EASTER – PART 2 We continue to examine this loyal group of women who went to the tomb early on Sunday morning carrying their prepared spices but when they arrived, the tomb was open and the body of Jesus was missing.

    A sinner can’t find help in the city where man lives? They can’t survive by sitting at the gate. Their only choice in to go to the camp of God, their enemy, to find deliverance.

    based on 34 ratings
     | 28,382 views

    It doesn’t take much to twist genuine faith into something sick and destructive. There is a fine line between an unshakeable faith in a God who will never let His holy city.

    I’ve been to Jerusalem. It was nearly three years ago now, and my memory has faded somewhat, but I’ve got some slides I can show you! No, don’t panic! I haven’t got them with me! In fact, I didn’t take any slides while I was there. I took some video, but I don’t have that with me either. At any ...read more

    Message "based" on John 4:35 - using the concept of the harvest. Warning!! This is not how I would normally use this passage! It is used in relation to a celebration coming to our city this year.

    Open Your Eyes! John 4:35 January 8, 2006 Introduction This is not going to be your typical Sunday message from me. Rather than the type of message where I take a passage of Scripture and walk us through it to find principles to apply, I want this to be a kind of "where do we go from here" ...read more

    Jesus enters Jerusalem on the colt to the praises of a throng of followers and under the scrutiny of the religious leaders, but His mind is focused on the souls of the city of Jerusalem, which represented God's chosen nation.

    The story of Rahab teaches us something about the faithfulness and grace of God. Rahab stays in the city, trusting that God will keep his promise and she’s kept safe.

    Joshua 2 - Rahab Joshua has received the call of God. If he’s to be a good leader he needs to show courage. But he also needs to show wisdom. They’re still on the east side of the Jordan, not yet in the Promised land and he’s working out what to do first. So before embarking on a ...read more

    Pergamos was a prominent city, but there was much idolatry and immorality there. Some of the believers had remained faithful, but others had compromised their stand for the Lord. Jesus admonished them to abide faithful.

    Pergamos: A Compromising Commitment Revelation 2: 12-17 Pergamos was a beautifully situated city with an air of royalty about it. It sat on top of a huge mountain, arising ever so steeply and majestically out of a beautiful valley. The city's citizens could see the Mediterranean Sea some ...read more
