Slaves In Egypt Series

Contributed by Andrew Moffatt on Aug 16, 2013

Well whose to judge, to slander those lost in sin, those who don't know the Father. How do we treat the alien and the widow? Slapping them up the side of the head will not win souls for the kingdom of God.

The paradox that we are looking at this week of our OWSOMS Self Denial appeal that we are looking at is this ‘The Paradox of Belonging’. In the passage from Deuteronomy 24:17 through to verse 22 we get this command “Do not deprive the alien or the Fatherless of justice, or take ...read more

The Smartest Unlearned And Ignorant Men In Town! Series

Contributed by Chuck Sligh on Sep 21, 2014

The Obvious Truth Series

Contributed by Allan Quak on Mar 30, 2016

Just as the Lord proclaimed to Samuel the fulfillment of his prophecy concerning judgment of his leaders who were unfaithful and the establishment of faithful leaders over his house, so now He is coming to judge His church leaders.

As the first day of 2020 arrived, I found myself doing what I have always done for the last 40 years: seeking the Lord's word and focus for the coming year. This time, Jan. 1, 2020—something different happened. As I prayed and listened—"Here am I, Lord, speak"—I began to have a ...read more

Thomas - Vilified By Reputation Series

Contributed by Allan Quak on Dec 16, 2005

It is so easy to characterise ourselves and others on the basis of past actions or occasions when sin has prevailed. The way Jesus deals with Thomas reminds us that we should not be judged on the basis of our reputation, but on the basis of Christ’s grac

Message John 20:24-29 “Thomas … vilified by reputation” We like to put people into a box don’t we? To be able to look at someone and feel that we have a measure of who they are.

Confident Of His Coming

Contributed by Harold Orndorff on May 25, 2004

Though people have and continue to doubt that Jesus will return, we can be confident of His coming because God has judged the world before, because God is not bound by time, and because Christ’s coming will not be preceded by definite signs.

Confident of His Coming II Peter 3:1-13 Maranatha - - come quickly, Lord Jesus. Quickly, you say? What’s so quick about two thousand years?

The Cream Rises To The To Series

Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Apr 14, 2008

For most of us, the idea that the Messiah will judge each of us and the idea that God does not change -- and therefore we must adapt to Him and not He to us -- motivates us to surface as His followers. We recognize the wisdom of aligning ourselves to Him
