The Creation Of Man And Woman - Parts 2 & 3 Series

Contributed by Dr. Bradford Reaves on Oct 6, 2021

This is a two-part sermon. God also gave man full dominion over God’s creation on earth. As the pinnacle of creations, man was appointed as managers, if you will, over God’s beautiful creation. It was man who relinquished that dominion over to Satan.

Agnostic Nazarenes - Mark 6:1-6 Series

Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on Oct 19, 2023

In his hometown, the people didn’t believe Jesus because he was a local handyman. Such an irrational conclusion is due to living by feeling instead of fact. Agnosticism is an effort to justify ignorance.

Mark 6:1 Jesus left there and went to his hometown, accompanied by his disciples. 2 When the Sabbath came, he began to teach in the synagogue, and many who heard him were amazed. “Where did this man get these things?” they asked. “What’s this wisdom that has been given him and such miraculous ...read more

I'm not talking about falling asleep when you're supposed to take out the trash, but rather not being able to find a working flashlight when you need one. This is a common problem, you know.
