    If you are saved and choose to ignore your family/friends, you will still go to heaven but if they die in their sins they will spend eternity in hell remembering that you refused every opportunity you had to tell them how to be saved.

    “Almost but lost” Acts 26:28-29 Lori was 14 years old when she was baptized at Blue Springs Community Church, a one-room country church only a few miles from her house.

    Jesus promised the world would hate us. The reason is beacause we are holy. How can we achieve the holiness the world hates?

    Last week our topic was on the Jesus Joy. We discovered that on the last night before his arrest Jesus prayed for us. John 17:20 “I am praying not only for these disciples but also for all who will ever believe in me through their message.” He prayed that we would be filled with his ...read more

    On Memorial day, we remember and honor those who have stood in the gap between freedom and tyranny. We also are reminded that we are called to stand in the gap for our faith in God.

    based on 3 ratings
     | 35,729 views

    The Gerasene demoniac is a true story and not a parable with much to encourage us; there are even some funny features within, somewhere between a political cartoon and a graphic novel. Read on … and you will see the bizarre from beginning to end.

    1 Kings 19:1-4, (5-7), 8-15a Psalm 42 and 43 Galatians 3:23-29 Luke 8:26-39 Summary: The Gerasene demoniac is a true story and not a parable with much to encourage us; there are even some funny features within, somewhere between a political cartoon and a graphic novel. Read on ...read more

    This is a deeper study going along with the Sermon Defusing Anger - it is looking at practical ways to deal with anger. This is to be used in a small group. I want to thank Dr. Stanley and Joyce Meyer along with others for the background of this message.

    Definition of Anger: It is a strong feeling of intense displeasure, hostility or indignation as a result of a real or imagined threat, insult, frustration or injustice done towards yourself or others important to you. (From Dr. Charles Stanley) Anger is a normal emotion with a wide range of ...read more

    Having established our position in Christ and the glorious gifts of HIs presence, we are challenged to live in a manner worthy of our gift.

    Live It! Ephesians 4:1-5 One of the themes in Ephesians is that Christ in a life in this wicked world must make a difference.

    Jesus Heals An Evil Spirit In The Church

    Contributed by Bruce Lee on Oct 5, 2014
    based on 8 ratings
     | 17,125 views

    It is naïve to think that an evil spirit can’t come into a church. Or invade your home, or think that you are immune to the devils attacks. This is the first example of Jesus' power to heal the spiritual afflictions that possessed the human soul.

    Jesus Heals an Evil Spirit in the Church “In the synagogue there was a man possessed by a demon, an impure spirit.” Luke 4:31-37 Intro: The city of Capernaum was on the northwest shore of the Sea of Galilee. It was a fishing village and along the major route about 200 miles from ...read more
