    This exposition of Psalm 84 examines the psalmist's passion for the presence of God, the strength that God supplies to those who rely on him, and the abundant provision for those who serve him with consecration and sincerity.

    Intro This message will illustrate the harmony of Jesus’s Beatitudes with other beatitudes in Scripture. While expounding Psalm 84, we will identify consistencies in the beatitudes declared by the psalmist with some of the beatitudes pronounced by Jesus in Matthew 5.

    One of the reasons that it is a sin for Christians to take drugs or drink alcoholic beverages is because these are substances that control our behavior.

    These are things that will ruin our lives and cause us to make fools out of ourselves. There is no way that a Christian can be controlled by the Holy Spirit if they are controlled by these substances. But these are not the only things that control Christians. For example, there are many ...read more

    No wonder Paul had such joy. Through his circumstances, Christ was known, preached, and magnified. Joy in perspective. It doesn’t matter if I get my way. It doesn’t matter if my personal ambition is met. What matters is that Christ is magnified

    This sermon continues to focus on Solomon's melancholy view of life and his conclusion to: "Remember God in the days of your youth" because there will come a point where you will no longer remember or enjoy very little.

    The passage we will be looking at today is kind of a lengthy one. It is Ecclesiastes 11:7 going all the way down to Ecclesiastes 12:8. This particular chunk of passage is actually considered probably the last words that Solomon wrote at least in this book. Even though there are words that ...read more

    Paul in this passage gives one of the most profound counter cultural statements ever said, "to live is Christ, and to die is gain!" In this sermon we are going to examine what Paul meant by those words and how putting Christ first is the key to joy and rejoicing in Lord's presence!

    I believe we are living in the last days because every day since Jesus ascended into Heaven after His resurrection is one of the last days – we just don’t know how many days, months or years there will be till He returns.

    Proper preparation for the second coming of Christ For a few weeks, God has kept leading me back to a specific passage in 1 Thessalonians chapter 5 which I believe He wants me to share with you today.

    Many people are afraid to die, but Paul said he strongly desired to depart, because he knew it was far better, and would be a gain for him. Relationship with Christ and faith in the Word of God should give us confidence to face death. To die is Gain!
