    Do not present any part of your body to Satan as an instrument for sin.

    Opening Prayer - Father God, we come as truth seekers. We strive to tear down the strongholds blocking Your truth from those trying to follow Your Way. Lord, continue to guide our steps as we rightly divide Your Word using a discerning heart and a right Spirit. We thank You for Your mercy, ...read more

    Was A Sacrificial Lamb Really Necessary For Humanity?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Jun 9, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 425 views

    If a sacrificial lamb was necessary for people during Biblical times, is one still necessary for people of today?

    As the Hebrews arranged for their departure from subjugation in Egypt, they were told to make bread without yeast (“unleavened bread”) on the grounds that they lacked the necessary amount of time to sit and wait for it to rise. Yeast was likewise an image of wrongdoing, so they were directed to ...read more

    For The Sake Of The Call

     | 3,367 views

    Jesus called a bunch of smelly fishermen to share in His ministry. So, when Jesus extends a call, what does it look like? What does it entail? What might He ask us to do? Or, what might we have to let go of in order to serve Him?

    I have entitled our message this morning, “For the Sake of the Call,” and we are going to look at how Jesus called a bunch of smelly fishermen to share in His ministry. Allow me to get started with a joke: “Why did Jesus call so many fishermen to become apostles? He was always looking for a ‘net ...read more

    Breaking Our Flask

     | 6,961 views

    Some people, like Judas, are ignoring God's call, as they are too busy making their life in this world secure. Like the woman who broke her alabaster flask, we must break our flesh so the good things of God can pour out of us.

    Henry Ward Beecher once said, “In this world it is not what we take up, but what we give up, that makes us rich.”(1) Our passages of Scripture for this morning speak of sacrifice. One definition of sacrifice is “to offer to God in homage or worship,” and another one is “to destroy, surrender, or ...read more

    Romans 12:1 is one of the hardest verses in the Bible.God means for us to give it all to him: your body, your mind, your service, your possssions, all to him.

    Giving God All You’ve Got Romans 12:1 This verse is undoubtedly one of the most difficult verses in the Bible. God means to give it all to him as a reasonable sacrifice: your body, your thoughts, your actions, your service, your word,all you have. Whatever you have and whatever you do,sacrifice ...read more

    What is the will of God?

    “And so, dear brothers and sisters, I plead with you to give your bodies to God because of all he has done for you. Let them be a living and holy sacrifice—the kind he will find acceptable. This is truly the way to worship him. Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God ...read more

    How Can We Stand In The Gap?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Dec 27, 2023
     | 1,803 views

    What is it to stand in the gap for someone else? Is it to stand in the place for another?

    In Chapter 22, we learn why judgment would be placed on Jerusalem (22:2-16), how it would approach them (22:17-22), and who would be affected by it (22:23-31). The Jewish leaders were particularly liable for the ethical environment of the country since God had picked them to lead. Those actions and ...read more

    Jesus Faced Judgment In Front Of Pontius Pilate Series

    Contributed by Robert Irvine on Jul 24, 2024
     | 473 views

    Jesus was judged by Pilate and was taken away and died on the cross at Golgotha. Pilate knew that Jesus was innocent yet he substituted the innocent man, Jesus, for the guilty robber and murderer, Barabbas.

    The prophet Isaiah wrote that the suffering servant would suffer judgment. In the previous sermonm, we saw how Jesus was silent when confronted by Pontius Pilate at his illegal trial. I don’t want to repeat what has been said, but suffice it to say Jesus was judged by Pilate and was taken away and ...read more

    Why She Gave Series

    Contributed by Scott Sutton on Oct 31, 2022
     | 2,078 views

    Christmas is less than 2 months away, in fact it’s only 56 days from today! I don't believe anyone would argue the fact that Christmas is the season of giving. Maybe you remember this book. It is one of the most popular fiction books ever written on the subject of giving at Christmastime.

    It is called; "A Christmas Carol” written by Charles Dickens. The publishing of his book was hugely popular; its first printing of 6,000 copies sold out in less than three days, and that was back in 1843 on December 19th just 6 days before Christmas; that was without computers, television, not ...read more

    A Great Love Story Rarely Told

    Contributed by Craig Benner on Feb 14, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,203 views

    We all know the greatest love story is found in John 3:16. There are also many others in the Bible. A few are less talked about than others. There is one that is not considered very much, and for sure, it is hardly ever imitated or emulated.

    ONE OF THE GREATEST LOVE STORIES RARELY TOLD (and more rarely lived out) No butterflies in the stomach or cupids' arrows flying here. God is still looking for someone to espouse the vow of rescuing the perishing; even those who claim that they do not want to be saved. Text to read: Hosea ...read more

    Lessons Concerning Idolatry In Specific–eating Meats Offered To Idols

    Contributed by Phillip Smith on Aug 14, 2024
     | 512 views

    Apostle Paul warns of fellowshiping with devils. Anything concerning idols and worship to idols is taking away our true worship to Almighty God. Flee from all forms of idolatry.

    “I would not that ye should have fellowship with devils:, says Apostle Paul. To what extent are we to adhere to this rule? Fellowshiping with anyone who is a habitual sinner is fellowshiping with devils. It is to devils they worship in their iniquities. The blatant sinner is mastered by devils and ...read more

    Isaiah’s prophecy is important because everything that happened to Jesus was a part of God’s plan. A plan for all people!

    INTRODUCTION - Last week, when we started this series, I said that the entire Bible was about Jesus. Sometimes, He sits under the surface of the page; other times, He is hidden between the lines, but this week, we will see Jesus jumping out of the page of the text. - Our text today will illuminate ...read more

    One Cross [symbol Of Our Sin]; One Man [god’s Sacrifice] And A World That Was Changed Forever

    Christ did His part by taking up His cross and shedding His blood for the entire world so that we are redeemed and have eternity with Christ alone. How will you respond to Him today?

    1. ONE CROSS [symbol of our sin]: 1 Corinthians 1:18 “For the message of the CROSS is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.” • Growing up I saw different perspectives of the cross of Christ. • For certain denominations it was a kind of ...read more

    Out-Of-The-Box-Worship

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 24, 2024
     | 1,168 views

    Worship doesn’t involve behaving as if nothing is wrong; it’s making sure everything is right—right with God and with one another. When our greatest fear is letting down our hair, perhaps our greatest sin is keeping it up.

    Opening illustration: Some of us may feel pressured to be perfect when we go to church so that people will think well of us. Metaphorically speaking, we work hard to make sure we have every hair in place. But a healthy church is a place where we can let down our hair and not hide our flaws behind a ...read more
