    Christ’s birth is an example of sacrifice that is lived out in the lives of those who follow Him.

    *1 John 4:10-12* “In this is love, not that we have loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins. Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. No one has ever seen God; if we love one another, God abides in us and his love is perfected ...read more

     | 4,290 views

    Love is all that because all that matters is love.

    Love him who tells you your faults in private. It is easier to guard a sack full of fleas than a girl in love. Love does not pay attention to dignity. - (Jewish Proverbs) Gen_29:20 And Jacob served seven years for Rachel; and they seemed unto him but a few days, for the love he had to her. ...read more

     | 3,533 views

    This message is about the power of love and that Scripture proves that it is greater than faith. Faith is activated and sustained by love.

    Love Is Greater Than Faith Scripture: Matthew 24:12; First Corinthians 13; Hebrews 11:6 I had a conversation with someone several weeks ago about the things happening in the world. We discussed the attitudes that are prevalent in the United States; attitudes of hate by those who truly believe ...read more

    A God Who Gives

     | 3,226 views

    God loves and He gave. When He gave, He gave sacrificially and willingly. We are to love those whom God loves. Let us learn to give sacrificially and willingly.

    God is a giver. • “For God so loved the world that He gives His only Son Jesus…” GOD LOVES AND HE GAVE God gives because He first loves. It is out of love for you that He gives. • We can’t see love, but when God gives, we see it. • You are loved, whether you know it or not. You are important to ...read more

    Praying For Those In Authority Series

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Feb 19, 2025
     | 305 views

    As believers, we are instructed by Scripture to pray for those in authority. This includes government leaders, rulers, and anyone who holds a position of influence. Our prayers are not only for their guidance and well-being but also for the peace, stability, and righteousness of the nation.

    PRAYING FOR THOSE IN AUTHORITY By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: 1 Timothy 2:1-2 "I urge, then, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercession, and thanksgiving be made for all people— for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and ...read more

    The Wrath Of A Loving God Series

    Contributed by Jason Smith on Sep 12, 2013
    based on 3 ratings
     | 9,212 views

    Many people do not think of God in the way that He reveals Himself, as a God who is not only loving, but also angry at sin. He hates the sinner and the sin.

    The topic I would like to deal with this afternoon is one that is rarely preached on, and this is very surprising because this aspect of God’s character is mentioned hundreds of times in both the Old and New Testaments. This subject is so important to study so we can have a correct ...read more

    There are two types of people in the world today those who say "Who Cares!" and those "Who Cares?" and we are one of the two.

    "Who Cares! "and "Who Cares?" Thesis: There are two types of people in the world today those who say "Who Cares!" and those "Who Cares?" and we are one of the two.

    Compassion is an essential element for a Christian. No compassion is equal to hate, which might be equal to murder.

    Compassion: Without it you are Guilty of Hate Kelly Durant I Jn 3:14-18 Compassion is sympathy for the suffering and a desire to help! Do something! They say that giving a beggar a piece of bread is a civil duty, but to give him a bread with butter on it, now that is compassion! Compassion is a ...read more

     | 9,183 views

    Love is free to those who receive it, but it can cost the giver a great deal.

    Acts 7:55-60 “The Cost of Love” INTRODUCTION There’s an old saying, “One person’s trash is another’s treasure.” How true this is. This fact of life is what fuels garage sales, thrift stores, and institutions like Goodwill and St Vincent de Paul. Most ...read more

     | 3,824 views

    Knowing about God and Knowing Him personally is not the same. Let’s see how this distinction applies when considering some of God’s attributes.

    WHAT LOVING GOD WILL DO Romans 13:8-10 “Owe no man anything, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law. 9 For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there be ...read more

    let’s pray for the conversion and healing of all those who hate us, even those who are killing our loved ones in the Middle East and Africa and elsewhere.

    Under the Old Covenant, or Old Testament, established by God with Moses and the people in the desert, there were a series of rituals focused on forgiveness and purification. The Letter to the Hebrews follows the tradition that these rituals have been perfected in Our Lord’s perfect sacrifice, which ...read more

    There are many things that can enter our lives to distract us from fulfilling the will of God. What are the "little foxes" in your life?

    Stopping Those Little Foxes By Rev. James May The Book of Song of Solomon contains the greatest love story that’s ever been told. Because of the style of writing and the tendency for people to focus on the fleshly nature of a relationship between a man and a woman in love, you seldom hear ...read more

    Beloved, apart from your life, the most priced gift that you have is your salvation.

    I SHALL NOT GIVE MY ENEMIES THE INHERITANCE Dr. D. K.

    Destroying Your Enemy

    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,714 views

    Obeying Jesus’ command to love our enemies doesn’t come naturally, however. Often our first response is to retaliate. The best way - the Christ-like way - to destroy an enemy is to make him your friend! To melt an enemy, try the warmth of love.

    Opening illustration: There is a story told of two shopkeepers. Their stores were across the street from each other, and the two had a bitter rivalry. One day an angel came to one of the shopkeepers and said, “The Lord has sent me to tell you that you may have one wish. Whatever you ask for, ...read more
