    The Shrinking Power Of Binary Thinking

    Contributed by Mark Foreman on Jul 23, 2009
    based on 3 ratings
     | 3,792 views

    This message explains why "either/or" thinking doesn’t work in the Kingdom of God, and we should expand our perspective to include "both/and" thinking.

    We are discovering the ways we shrink Jesus in our own minds, from the robust love and nature that is truly His. ? The great "I Am" is calling you and is with you to transform you and this world. ? Either/or thinking often shrinks Jesus in our minds and in our lives. * Trip to the ...read more

    Nobody will get through this life without taking a few hits. The Bible says that a just man falleth 7 times, but he riseth again. Somebody is making a come-back today.

    Acts 14:19-21 ¶ And there came thither certain Jews from Antioch and Iconium, who persuaded the people, and, having stoned Paul, drew him out of the city, supposing he had been dead. 20 Howbeit, as the disciples stood round about him, he rose up, and came into the city: and the next day he ...read more

    Everyone’s Not Going To Heaven

    Contributed by Gregory Thomas on Apr 26, 2001
    based on 124 ratings
     | 7,234 views

    THIS IS A THEOLOGICAL APPROACH TO A FACTUAL PROBLEM. EVERYONE THAT SAYS LORD, LORD SHALL NOT ENTER THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN. THIS COMBATS THE MYTH THAT EVERY PROFESSING CHRISTIAN SHALL MAKE THE MARK.

    EVERYONE’S NOT COMING HOME MATTHEW 7: 21 - 22 21) NOT EVERYONE WHO SAYS TO ME, LORD, LORD, SHALL ENTER THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN, BUT HE WHO DOES THE WILL OF MY FATHER IN HEAVEN. 22) MANY WILL SAY TO ME IN THAT DAY, LORD, LORD, HAVE WE NOT PROPHESIED IN YOUR NAME, CAST OUT DEMONS IN ...read more

     | 1,372 views

    This sermon focuses on Jesus calling the first disciples which served as an invitation to living life in the Kingdom of God, and how that invitation is still available for believers today.

    If you have your Bibles and want to follow along, we will be looking at the gospel of Mark 1:14. If you have been here for a while, you know we are going through a series called The Story. When we talk about the story, we are talking about God’s story as told through the people, places, and ...read more

    based on 7 ratings
     | 10,120 views

    Jesus gives us four basic types of response to the message of God’s kingdom. Which type of ground most resembles your spiritual walk?

    Parables of Jesus Fertile Ground Matthew 13:3-9; 18-23 May 17, 2009 As I mentioned a couple of weeks ago, this parable is the parable of parables.

     | 10,571 views

    IN A WORLD OF SELF-INDULGENCE, SELF-GRATIFICATION, SELF-ACTUALIZATION, WE VALUE LIFE STYLES REFLECTING WHOLE LIFE STEWARDSHIP ACTIVELY ADVANCING THE KINGDOM OF GOD.

    Whole Life Stewardship 2/12/17 Colossians 3:17 INTRODUCTION Many of us, when we hear the word stewardship, instantly become uncomfortable. We hide that discomfort behind joke and cartoons.

    Living Water Series

     | 2,629 views

    God’s will for you every day is to drink of His Spirit, worship in spirit and truth, and tell others about His Son. If you pursue just these three desires of God every day, you’ll live a full life without all the hassle and hurry.

    Alan Fadling, in his book An Unhurried Life, tells a parable of a king who had two servants. One of the servants, for fear of not pleasing his master, rose early each day to hurry along to do all the things that he believed the king wanted done. He didn't want to bother the king with ...read more

    Today Is A Good Day To Die

    Contributed by Ken Henson on Apr 21, 2019
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,655 views

    Almost every time the Bible refers to the Resurrection of Jesus, it refers to our call to follow Him to the cross. Without death there is no resurrection. Jesus bids us "come, and die".

    Today is a good day to die. Warning (Spoiler?). Today’s message is going to be morbid-focused on death. I’ll confess, I’m a Star Trek fan, And there is a species in the series that is very focused on warrior virtues. Any episode where there is a battle, and there seems to be a likelihood of ...read more

    In Matthew 5:13-16, Jesus uses 2 metaphors to underscore the influence and the impact that those who live in His Kingdom will have on the world around them.

    A City On A Hill Matthew 5:13-16 OKAY – so we are in this message series, a chapter by chapter, verse by verse… in depth study, of the Gospel of Matthew. TODAY – is week 16.

    This sermon will admonish people to examine themselves; if we won’t give up our love for this world, we will give up our future in the kingdom.

    1 John 2:15-17 15 Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. 17 And ...read more

    As fathers part of role is to leave an eternal legacy, Joseph understood just that. What is it we are going to leave, are we decided to leave a kingdom legacy?

    The Divine Son of God, the Lord Jesus, stepped into this world and was born of the Virgin Mary. The only way that we can enter His Kingdom is to be "born of God".

    "Born of God" John 1:12-13 So many people today who experience difficulties in family, work, and many social relationships tend to blame their troubles on their background, birth or their parents, and regardless of how those factors may or may not have influenced the present, there is always the ...read more

    The opening line of Psalm 127 emphasizes a theme that runs through both Psalm 127 and 128 – without God’s direct and crucial involvement in its building and protection, no house, city, or family will survive.
