    To Fulfill The Law Series

    Contributed by Mike Lewis on Mar 26, 2024
     | 1,485 views

    Every bit of Jesus’ previous statements in the Sermon on the Mount have been about the life and attitudes of his followers. How a disciple might act. What a believer seeks in his or her life. Today, Jesus makes some statements about himself and his purpose here on earth.

    WELCOME & INTRODUCTION THE WEIRDEST LAWS IN EVERY STATE The United States is a large, vibrant and diverse country in which states and even cities have the power to pass their own laws.

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Jan 12, 2022
     | 2,580 views

    I want to spend some time in the next few weeks talking about the surety of things. Can we really be sure of anything? We do have assurance. God wants every believer to have assurance of salvation.

    I want to spend some time in the next few weeks talking about the surety of things. Can we really be sure of anything? Someone once said, “The only things we can be sure of are taxes and the rent going up.” Some philosophers will tell you that we can't be sure of anything. After Covid-19 ...read more

    Two Revealing Prayers Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 28, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 4,582 views

    This passage records two prayers, in which are shown two kinds of hearts, whose contrast is not only seen in the way they make their requests, but also in the way they approach God. Some people trust in themselves; others trust in God.

    This evening’s sermon is entitled “Two Revealing Prayers,” and it’s taken from what is commonly called “The Parable of the Pharisee and the Tax Collector.” Darrell Bock, in The NIV Application Commentary, says, “This parable is really the parable of the two prayers. In those prayers appear two ...read more

    The foundation of character is a personal concern for one’s sin.

    A. INTRODUCTION: LUKE 18:9-14 Christ reproves two sins, (1) pride in one self, and (2) despising other people. He uses a negative illustration of the Pharisee who is guilty of both. He uses the Publican as a positive illustration of humility and meekness. B. SIMILARITIES OF THE PHARISEE AND ...read more

    There is a pattern established by God. That of Sin, judgement and grace. We look at how this is depicted in Genesis chapters 1-20.

    A deep dive into Sin, Judgment and Grace. We started last week's message with a review of the events from creation, up until the birth of Abram who would go onto have his name changed to Abraham, which means The Father of Many. Rochelle and I got home and discussed the message and the amount ...read more

    You may have been a high class moral wretch or a low class immoral wretch, but you were still a wretch.

    Luke 18:10 Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican. 11 The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank thee, that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican. 12 I fast twice in the week, I give ...read more

    This message is about self-righteousness and how Christians can easily fall into this attitude when we stand in judgment of others.

    Sermon # 43- No Room For Self-Righteousness Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Jan 22, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 467 views

    Self-righteous Jonah rejoiced over a plant that gave him shade, but had not compassion on the people of Nineveh who genuinely repented of their sins. There’s no room for self-righteousness, as all of us are sinners saved by God's grace alone.

    We read in Jonah 4:6, “Then the LORD God made a plant grow up over Jonah to give him some shade, so that he would be more comfortable. Jonah was extremely pleased with the plant.” (GNB) As we studied the life of Jonah there are numerous lessons that we have picked up, both for our personal lives, ...read more

     | 2,120 views

    Is it permissible for a believer to lead a dichotomous life? Here’s what the word of God teaches about hypocrisy, and the kind of life that God expects us to lead as His disciples.

    Jesus’ words to his disciples in Luke 12:1, “Meanwhile the people had come streaming towards Him by tens of thousands, so that they were trampling one another under foot. And now He proceeded to say to His disciples first, "Beware of the yeast of the Pharisees, that is to say, beware of ...read more

    God’s will for you every day is to drink of His Spirit, worship in spirit and truth, and tell others about His Son. If you pursue just these three desires of God every day, you’ll live a full life without all the hassle and hurry.

    Alan Fadling, in his book An Unhurried Life, tells a parable of a king who had two servants. One of the servants, for fear of not pleasing his master, rose early each day to hurry along to do all the things that he believed the king wanted done.

    “The Great Mercy of God” Luke 18:9-14 Have you ever driven past another person holding a sign “will work for food” and felt a bit of disgust or even contempt in your heart toward them…kind of like a feeling of “I’m better than you”?
