    Advent is the time of preparation for the coming of our heavenly King. How do we receive him in our Christian community and in our personal lives? Are the gates wide open, or does he need to knock at our door, locked from the inside?

  • Dough And Bucks

    Contributed by Terry Melton on Aug 4, 2019
     | 3,417 views

    Looking at “dough” and “bucks.” I am not referring to the kind of “deer” that God created, but rather the "dough" and "bucks" that man created, and hold too "dear" to our hearts, for the love of money is the root to all kinds of evil.

    When my daughter was little, we were driving along a country road, and she spotted a deer. She asked, “Does the deer have any doe?” I said, “Ya. Two bucks.” Today, we will have a look at “dough” and “bucks.” I am not referring to the kind of “deer” that God created, but rather when we hold the ...read more

     | 11,976 views

    Maybe the most unusual healing in the N.T., Jesus removes many pounds/ gallons of fluid from a man's body in a few seconds. The Greek indicates He may have squeezed the man as part of the healing. Wow!

There is the advantage of having been personally SELECTED by their parents. Illus: Have you ever seen anyone go to a dog pound and adopt a little puppy? Once that little ...read more

  • Saved Through Persistence Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 3,166 views

    Jesus loves us so much that He pursues us, and pleads with us to enter the kingdom and seek salvation. He knocks on the door to our heart. Jesus may knock on our heart’s door, but we need to be knocking on heaven’s gates!

    This evening’s message is taken from what is commonly called “A Friend Comes at Midnight.” In this particular passage, Jesus used a parable to relate a certain message about our need to continue knocking on the door. In Revelation 3:20, Jesus declared, “Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If ...read more

  • The Book Of Mark #60

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 30, 2022
     | 1,178 views

    In the four Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, there are over 60 references to the scribes, and over 80 references to the Pharisees.

    Most of these references were made by Jesus, Himself. No doubt these people were awkward for Jesus to have to deal with. Jesus had a desire for all souls to be saved from their sins. Nevertheless, Jesus did find Himself having to rebuke the Scribes and Pharisees for the way they lived their ...read more

  • Putting It All Together Series

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Apr 5, 2022
     | 2,340 views

    It's nonsense to build our lives on a lie, but people do it. God calls us to build on a foundation of truth.

    There is nothing quite so destructive as a lie. No one wants to be lied to. It is nothing short of betrayal. And no one wants to be lied about. It is an ugly and contemptuous act. The Bible traces our worst problems back to a lie. The serpent, remember, asked the woman whether it was true what he ...read more

  • Dos And Don'ts Of Salvation

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Mar 22, 2021
     | 3,096 views

    A defibrillator can’t save someone while it’s in its cabinet. It has to be taken down and operated. In the same way, Jesus’ death and resurrection don’t save a person unless a person makes use of them. A person has to respond to them. There are some 'dos' and 'don'ts'.

    In recent years something new has appeared on many high streets: defibrillators. Defibrillators can be life-savers if someone suffers a heart attack. They aren’t only on high streets, of course. I like to do ‘Park Run’ (when it’s happening!) and lots of Park Runs have defibrillators. You often ...read more
