    Redemption comes immediately and God’s life is imparted to us the second we acknowledge Jesus as Lord.

All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. 4. In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. 5. And the light ...read more

    A look at four of the great things we can anticipate being in our future.

    The Big Idea: For the Christian, what’s ahead is better than what’s behind. - The specific context here is that things are going to be better for Israel. - In Romans 11 (see vv. 11-12, 28-29), Paul makes it clear that God is not done with Israel. - Those passages speak of how the ...read more

    For most of us, the idea that the Messiah will judge each of us and the idea that God does not change -- and therefore we must adapt to Him and not He to us -- motivates us to surface as His followers. We recognize the wisdom of aligning ourselves to Him

    The Cream Rises to the Top (Malachi 3:1-7) 1. Sometimes people say, "It doesn’t matter what we believe, as long as we all believe there is one God?" 2. We were shocked to hear about the polygamous sect in Texas this past week. 3. According to the Associated Press, "Authorities searching the ...read more

    Getting On The Left Side Of A Right-Handed God

    Contributed by Everett Mccoy on Jul 22, 2008
    based on 18 ratings
     | 11,938 views

    A unique approach to the blessing and jugdment of God. Everything God is is on his right - there is NOTHING left to be at his left.

    Originally I thought of titling my message “God is Ambidextrous”. I have often characterized the right and left hands of God as the glory and judgment of God, respectively. We’re always hearing in church about the power and the glory – but I wanted to remind everyone today that God has a left ...read more

    Stephen's message was God’s final invitation to Israel. If Israel rejected the message, God would turn elsewhere to root and ground His church. Israel DID reject the message; in fact, Israel killed Stephen and launched a savage persecution against the c

    The last time we were in our series in the Book of Acts, we saw that Stephen died as a martyr for Jesus Christ. Stephen preached a message just before he died.

    In a time of Christmas pageants and packages we are faced with the question,"Is This Really Good News For all of Us Today?" I hope after today’s message you will say, "Oh Yes, this is really good news."

    Many of us remember performing in a Christmas musicale at church or school. You may even remember the part you played or perhaps you remember that you forgot some of your lines.

    Knowing Jesus is enough to give the foundation for us to give thanks in difficult circumstances. The future will bring great difficulties for the people who experience it; knowing Jesus is their only foundation for hope.

    Introduction: We're tempted to just throw things away that don't do what we want. Luke 13:6-9 gives one of Jesus parables, about a fruitles fig tree, that was fertilized to give it another chance, its best chance for growth. If no growth was forthcoming, it then would be destroyed. The ...read more

    At the Rapture, the dead in Christ shall rise first and then those who are alive shall be instantly changed. How will New Testament believers who have slept (or physically died) be raised? What is the resurrection body like at the Rapture?

    Intro: Because Jesus rose from the dead, we shall live also (John 11:25-26). All true Christians wait for the glorious appearing of the Lord Jesus Christ (I Thess. 4:15-18).
