Knowing Who You Are Series

Contributed by Christian Cheong on Mar 7, 2022

In his opening, Paul directed the Corinthians' attention to WHO they are and WHAT they have received in Christ.

Dn Michael gave us the backdrop and overview of 1 Corinthians last Sunday. • Corinth was a prosperous and bustling city because of its strategic location as a seaport situated at the crossroads of commerce and trade. • It was a melting pot of many different cultures and the city then was known for ...read more

Having Confidence When We Are Fearful

Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Mar 7, 2022

What do we do when the ugly little head of fear begins to creep into our lives? What is it that causes you fear? An example of Abram's life shows us what we should do and what we shouldn't do.

Fear. Whether we want to admit it or not, fear is something that we have to wrestle with. The fear of standing on the ladder that's two stories high. Fear of a spider crawling on your skin. The fear of snakes. The fear of standing on a stage with the spotlight beaming on you. The fear of ...read more

Love Without Limits (January 30, 2022)

Contributed by John Williams Iii on Mar 11, 2022

Now if love is supposed to be the greatest, and it is, then why did Jesus’s preaching about love in Luke 4:21 -30 provoke those in the congregation so badly? It provoked them so badly, that they wanted to throw Him off a cliff!

LOVE WITHOUT LIMITS Text: I Corinthians 13:1- 13 1 Corinthians 13:1-13  If I speak in the tongues of mortals and of angels, but do not have love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.  (2)  And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I ...read more

Shields Of Brass Or Gold?

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 12, 2022

Here, the Scripture portrays an Israelite king substituting true godliness with a cheap imitation in an attempt to fool the people of Israel into believing that the nation still had favor with God. But in reality, Israel was falling apart.

Some of the insights contained in this evening’s message were inspired by O. S. Hawkins’ book Shields of Brass or Shields of Gold? One day while Mr. Jones was chatting with Mr. Smith about yard work, Mr. Jones happened to mention that he had only cut the grass in his front yard that week because ...read more

Confidence During Uncertainty

Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Mar 21, 2022

Just like Abram, all we need to do is simply believe and trust in God. Yes, we can be confident in the times of uncertainty.

We have been talking about having confidence during certain times in our lives--confidence when fear surrounds us, and confidence during conflicting times. Today I want to look at being confident in times of uncertainty. If anyone knows about uncertainty, it's our world today. You all know ...read more

The Lord’s Vineyard Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 26, 2022

The vineyard is symbolic of God’s kingdom on earth, and believers are responsible for tending the vineyard until Christ returns. Those who reject the vineyard owner's Son (Jesus) will be driven out of the vineyard and have no place in it.

This evening we are going to look at what is called the “Parable of the Wicked Vinedressers.” Our main text will be taken from Mark chapter twelve; however, before we look at Mark, let’s turn to Isaiah chapter five. In Isaiah we find a parable called the “Parable of the Vineyard,” which is ...read more

Stewardship #1 Of 4

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 11, 2022

Generally, when a preacher preaches on stewardship the congregation immediately thinks of at least THREE things. These are...

(1) THE PASTOR IS GOING TO PREACH ON MONEY. Pastors who love the people of the congregation will preach about money. Why? Because God has promised a blessings to all who tithe. Illus: It is estimated that if the widow’s mite had been deposited at the “First National Bank of Jerusalem,” ...read more

The Antidote To Progressive Revisionism In The Church

Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Apr 12, 2022

God gave laws known as the Ten Commandments for every human being to adhere to.

Religious leaders are always very good at legalism so they added 603 moral and legal codes (365 thou shalt not's and 248 thou shalt). Jesus accentuated the 10 Commandments because they are the key to knowledge about salvation (see Isaiah 42:21; Luke 11:52). The Bible says that "Only in ...read more

The Parables Of Jesus: The Lost Sheep & The Lost Coin Series

Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Apr 15, 2022

Time and again in the New Testament we see Jesus sharing parables and stories related to shepherds and sheep. It’s very very common. From psalm 23, talking about the rod and staff of the shepherd, to Jesus calling himself “the gate for the sheep” it’s throughout the scriptures.

“Dr. Andrew Bonar told me how, in the Highlands of Scotland, a sheep would often wander off into the rocks and get into places that they couldn't get out of. The grass on these mountains is very sweet and the sheep like it, and they will jump down ten or twelve feet, and then they can't ...read more

Excuses, Excuses

Contributed by Stephen Aram on Apr 19, 2022

If you had the chance to go back to the time of Jesus and follow him as a disciple, would you take it? Jesus pointed out that there were people who saw his ministry and saw John the Baptist's ministry, but made excuses rather than commitment, so they missed out.

I love preaching through the life of Jesus. There is something about his teachings and the things that he did that just stretches me again and again. Any time I start to think I have it all figured out, I just need to take another look at Jesus, and I know there are more wonders still ahead for ...read more

For example, in Romans 1:3-4, concerning His Son Jesus Christ our Lord, who was born of the seed of David according to the flesh, 4 and declared to be the Son of God with power according to the Spirit of ...read more
