    Architecture Of The Church

    Contributed by Charles Mallory on Aug 24, 2023
     | 1,554 views

    Jesus establishes Peter as the first building block of the Church upon his confession that Jesus is the Son of God. We, too, have that same opportunity to become a building stone in the Church.

    CHURCH! THAT WORD, ALONE, BRINGS ABOUT MANY DIFFERENT IDEAS AND UNDERSTANDINGS. I HAVE HEARD IT DESCRIBED AS JUST A BUILDING OR AS A PLACE CHRISTIANS GO ON SUNDAY. PERHAPS, THOSE DEEPER IN FAITH WOULD CALL IT A GROUP OF BELIEVERS. WE ALL HAVE DIFFERENT CONCEPTS OF WHAT “CHURCH” MEANS TO US. IF WE ...read more

    We do not have to fight the spiritual battles of this life alone. Jesus gave us the church and we have one another as the earthly body of Christ and we have Jesus as our head.

    This country is in a civil war. It’s not the north and south like the conflict that was fought 160 years ago. This civil war is for the hearts, minds, and for the very soul of America. And it would appear that America is losing its heart, mind, and soul to the dark forces of the world. The ...read more

    God created each of us for a purpose. God endowed us with certain gifts, unique to us alone. We can use these gifts for the building up of the Body of Christ or use them for selfish ends.

I Peter 4:10 - “Each one should use whatever gift he has received to serve others, faithfully administering God’s grace in its various forms.” I Corinthians 3:9 “We work together as partners who belong to ...read more

    Liberal Theology In The Churches – Address Number 3 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Oct 20, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,386 views

    Liberalism hits the wall when it dismisses Adam and Eve as historical fact. This message here examines why our faith would be null and void if Adam did not exist. We look at arguments from the Lord and Paul. The matter is conclusive.

    LIBERAL THEOLOGY IN THE CHURCHES – ADDRESS NUMBER 3 Liberal theology is a mixture of intellectualism, unbelief, and demonic attack. {{1Timothy 4:1-2 “the spirit explicitly says that in later times some will fall away from the faith, paying attention to deceitful spirits and doctrines of demons, ...read more

    A look at some of the building blocks necessary for effective leadership.

    It has been said that, “A church wrapped up in itself makes a small package—too small, in fact.” Christ has commissioned His church to win the lost for Him.

    Partnering with Christian Schools in the education of our children leads to a "Win, Win, Win" situation.

    If you think that this article is about sports and winning then you should stop reading now! We have too much of that in our society already.

    As Jesus enters the temple he is alarmed and begins to throw out, over turn, and displeased with the church of that day.
