    Shadow Of Death

    Contributed by G W Bill Elliott Jr on Feb 27, 2020
     | 7,584 views

    Yea, though I walk through the valley of the ‘shadow of death’ indicates there is a massive, bright and overwhelming light of hope behind any ‘darkness’ that haunts you. Behind any/all darkness in your life is that ‘ray of hope’, which is higher, greater, and certainly brighter than any ‘doom’.

    Fear is a distressing emotion aroused by impending danger, evil, pain, etc., whether the threat is real or imagined. Often it is the feeling or condition of being afraid. Combine that with Darkness and there-in is a gripping and many times overwhelming sense of pending doom.. of certain calamity… ...read more

    The Most Hateful Character In The Christmas Story

    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Dec 13, 2022
     | 2,773 views

    The Grinch was right, Christmas is not only about presents, but also about God’s gift of His son bringing, light, life and joy into the world. Today, I want to talk about the most hateful character of the Christmas story. Let’s look at Christmas from a different viewpoint.

    Sermon: The Most Hateful Character in the Christmas Story Scripture Lesson: Matthew 2:1-12."Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea, during the reign of King Herod. About that time some wise men from eastern lands arrived in Jerusalem, asking, 2 “Where is the newborn king of the Jews? We saw his ...read more

    From Exodus 32:1-6, we will uncover invaluable lessons about the consequences of weak spiritual leadership. We will glean insights that pierce through the complexities of our present church condition and trends, shedding light on both the pitfalls we must avoid and the pathways we should pursue.

    THE COST OF WEAK SPIRITUAL LEADERSHIP EXODUS 32:1-6 Scripture reading prior to sermon Ex 33:11-16, 34:6-10 Introduction When I was young, I was taught honesty is the key character for life being a great person and we should model after young George Washington the first President of the United ...read more

    Man Has Twisted, Contorted, Inverted, And Opposed All God’s Creation – Part 2 - Genesis Chapter 1 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Sep 4, 2023
     | 951 views

    We continue the study in Genesis chapter 1 to see how sinful and deluded man has overturned all that God set in place, inverting and destroying it. We especially look at evolution and God is Light. Man’s inversion of God’s order causes chaos and growing evil.

    MAN HAS TWISTED, CONTORTED, INVERTED, AND OPPOSED ALL GOD’S CREATION – PART 2 GENESIS CHAPTER 1 In Part 1 we looked at how man has taken what belongs to God and cancelled God out of the whole matter. The self-deceived in the world dismiss God and His creation and wallow in their own intelligence ...read more

    God loves us all equally, regardless of our family background. But what does the Bible say about favoritism within families? Join us today as we explore this topic in light of Romans 2:11, which teaches us that "God does not show favoritism."

    Introduction: I. Recognizing the Chains of Favoritism Dear brothers and sisters in Christ, it is a privilege to stand before you today and delve into a topic that affects us all—family favoritism.

    We have had some Christians today raised in our churches who have said that this position is too exclusive for them because every religion has some intrinsic value! Saints, God has called you out of darkness into the light to tell others that Jesus is the only way!

    Christian Baptism – The First Step In An Obedient Walk With The Lord – A Chat On Baptism Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Mar 5, 2024
     | 1,181 views

    From my experience, those who have been baptised straight after conversion are stronger in their faith, as baptism is the first step forward in one’s walk with the Lord. We study the subject of water baptism in the light of scriptural practice. Some insights from over the years of my life.

    CHRISTIAN BAPTISM – THE FIRST STEP IN AN OBEDIENT WALK WITH THE LORD – A CHAT ON BAPTISM NOTE:- In this message I have put in writing, I am using the English spellings that I know differ from some American spellings.

    Jesus And Youth Series

    Contributed by Rev. Dr. Andrew B Natarajan on Apr 20, 2023
     | 5,786 views

    Young people slowly turn away from the Church. They loose interest in Christ. They feel boredom in the preaching of pastors, even a young man had that problem in Mark. A little further walk with Christ could have given him a great light. Where are you today, O young man?

    Lesson 15 Mark 10:17-23 Jesus and Youth in Mark “Remember your Creator in the days of your youth” (Ecclesiastes 12:1). Someone needs to remind them to remember. “How can a young man keep his way pure? By guarding it according to your word.” (Psalm 119:9). “It is good for a man that he bears the ...read more

    Man’s Reality Is Restricted To A Dot In The Universe

    Contributed by James Linders on Sep 15, 2015
     | 4,746 views

    From the beginning of time man wanted to know where he came from and WHO he was. He refused to accept God's way because HIS reality differred from his creator's. Through the ages he was like a blind man, who was struggling to find the light switch.

    Over millennium man has asked the question: “WHO am I. WHERE did I come from?” Man’s perception of reality as HE knows it, is restricted to a dotted space in the VAST universe. It starts with a beginning (The present) and has an end (The future). He is conceived as a biological ...read more

    John gives us three important lessons from his testimony: 1. We are not the focus of the witness; 2. We are not the light of the world; and, 3. We proclaim (for others) our own belief in Jesus. Before we can ever grow, we must realize these first!

    The Forerunner to the Messiah John 1:14-28 Introduction - The gospel of John screams of the faith that we should have in Christ -- It is the clearest example of living life FOR the one who redeemed you and I - If we can learn to love like Jesus’, we can bring others to Him -- Re: We ...read more

    This devotion is about Jonah's obedience to God's 2nd call to him to go and preach against the people of Ninveveh. This is the 23rd of 31 devotions on the book of Jonah, where a comparison is made between Jonah and The Church-at-large, in the light of the present global pandemic.

    Jonah 3:3-4 - 3 So Jonah arose and went to Nineveh, according to the word of the LORD. Now Nineveh was an exceedingly great city, a three-day journey in extent. 4 And Jonah began to enter the city on the first day’s walk.
