    As people respond to Mel Gibson’s film, there is one truth that must be made clear: Neither the Jews nor the Romans had power to put Christ to death apart from His voluntary act. "No man takes my life from Me. I have power to lay it down and to take it ag

    Inner Nature

    Contributed by Dr. Abraham Obadare on Oct 7, 2025

     | 256 views

    The inner man or inner nature has so much power to destroy people and take away the kingdom of God from them. It can cause one to fall on his or her way from this earth to heaven. All of you who have the opportunity to read this write-up should set aside time to fast and pray concerning this matter.

    God created us perfectly, in His own image. He created us to be godly, and 1 Tim 6:6 says godliness with contentment is great gain. God created us to be like Him, but the enemy came and messed us up. Jesus described Satan as a liar and chief of liars (a great deceiver), John 8:44 This murderer and ...read more

    Walking In The Light

    Contributed by Jerry Flury on Aug 20, 2012
    based on 17 ratings
     | 49,625 views

    Walking in the light is conditioned on following Christ. John 8:12 “I am the light of the world: he that follows me shall not walk in darkness but shall have the light of life.” The Epistle of 1 John lays out several conditions for walking in the light.

    Walking in the Light 1 John 1:5-10 Before a person comes to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ the Bible says that that person is in total spiritual darkness. When one comes to Jesus that person no longer needs to be in darkness but in following Christ they have the light of life. As such they are ...read more

    Mary loved Jesus and was willing to pour herself out for Him. She was willing to pour the most valuable possession she had and poured it out on Jesus. Worship is pouring yourself out. It is laying down your life in honor of One who is greater than you.

    Why I Don't Have A "Vision" Or "5 Year Plan" For Our Church

     | 4,780 views

    This is an abbreviated sermon used after my annual pastor's report to the congregation explaining why we do not have a written "business plan" for church growth. Instead it lays out the 3 foundational steps the Lord has put in my heart as I serve here.

    If you would, please stand as we say together our memory Scripture for this quarter: Romans 12:4-5 “Just as each of us has one body with many members, and these members do not all have the same function, so in Christ we who are many form one body, and each member belongs to all the others.” ...read more

    Joseph forgave his jealous brothers when he had a chance to hurt the ones who hurt him. However, forgiveness is me not hurting you, for hurting me. Can you find the unforgiveness of your heart and lay it down? It is a cancer that will kill your soul.

    Gethsemane Series

    Contributed by Roshelle Brenneise on Sep 1, 2023
     | 1,306 views

    The cross wasn’t a tragic mistake. It didn’t “happen” to Jesus. He wasn’t a victim of circumstance. Jesus died because He deliberately chose to lay down His life – and he made that choice at Gethsemane. The war was not over, but the battle was won at Gethsemane.

    September 02, 2023 Today we are going to conclude the Gospels section of our series with Gethsemane. The Passover meal was over. Judas had left the group to make arrangements for the betrayal of Jesus. Now as the little party made their way to the Mount of Olives, Jesus made a startling ...read more

    Mary is despondent when she goes to the tomb the second time not knowing where the body of Jesus lay and she is confronted by the angels and then by Jesus. Her sorrow turns into joy and then she is given a command to go and share the good news of Jesus' resurrection from the dead.

    Jesus calls us to an extreme love, to even love our enemies. He calls us to lay down our rights for revenge, and shows us that God has already given us that kind of love, while we were God's enemy.

    Luke 6:27-36 Extreme Love [Please contact me at kerry.n.haynes@gmail.com for sermon outline in Word.] Today’s passage is a tough one; that’s why I chose it, so I could better understand it myself.
