We Are Not Ignorant Of Satan’s Devices Or Schemes – Part 8 Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Dec 8, 2023

Satan’s wicked schemes – what are they? On this occasion we consider the satanic reaping of children’s impressionable minds; the increase in the occult in various forms; and the murder of the unborn in abortion. We ought to know Satan’s schemes because 2Corinthians 2:11 says we do know them.

WE ARE NOT IGNORANT OF SATAN’S DEVICES OR SCHEMES – PART 8 [26]. SATAN CLAIMS THE IMPRESSIONABLE MIND WHICH HE CHAINS FOR LIFE Children tend to be trusting before they have learned that their peers and adults can not be trusted. Trust is a great Christian word and carries confidence and ...read more

Male And Female - Mark 10:1-12 Series

Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on Jan 8, 2024

When asked about divorce, Jesus’ first response was to point out maleness and femaleness. This message will help you see how the characteristics of the sexes combine to create a whole greater than the sum of the parts.

Mark 10:1 Jesus then left that place and went into the region of Judea and across the Jordan. Again crowds of people came to him, and as was his custom, he taught them. 2 Some Pharisees came and tested him by asking, "Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife?" 3 "What did Moses ...read more

Mark 10:13 People were bringing little children to Jesus to have him touch them, but the disciples rebuked them. 14 When Jesus saw this, he was indignant.

Three Ways We Sin

Contributed by Jenny Franklin on May 28, 2022

I was going door-to-door. I met a woman who said, “I have never sinned.” I knew this wasn’t true. It couldn’t be true; the Bible tells me this is not true.

None does good, no not one. Romans 3:12, Psalm 14:3 All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. Romans 3:23 We are all like sheep; we’ve gone astray: everyone has turned to his own way. Isaiah 53:6 I’m reminded of the story of “The Rich Young Ruler,” recorded in Matthew 19:16-26, Mark ...read more

A Warning That Bears Repeating

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jun 10, 2022

As the days draw nearer for the Lord's promised return, more people are choosing the wealth of the world rather than taking care of the most precious commodity they have, and that is their soul. Nothing of this world is worth the loss of eternal life with Christ.

Some time ago, I watched a series of programs that the BBC (British Broadcasting Company) had produced which centered on a variety of individuals who had encountered the Lord Jesus Christ at some point in their lives yet walked away with nothing more than faint curiosity, some conversation, or ...read more

Understanding Servant Leadership

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 29, 2022

Some people have never heard of servant leadership. This message discusses the wrong attitude for leadership. It then looks at three points defining servant leadership, and it concludes with the six primary characteristics.

Dwight L. Moody once said, “The measure of a man is not how many servants he has, but how many men he serves.”(1) This evening’s message will discuss something called servant leadership; and servant leadership is when a leader humbles him or herself to the level as those who are served.

Everything But The Main Thing

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 29, 2022

Have you ever met and talked with a rich man? Warren Buffett is one of the richest men in the world today.

Over the years, many believe that Warren Buffett has emerged as the greatest investor in American history. For example, if you had invested $10,000 in “Berkshire Hathaway” when he took control in 1965, your holdings would be worth more than $50 million today. However, being the second-richest ...read more

Receiving Treasure In Heaven

Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Apr 5, 2022

Our treasure on earth eclipses our desire for "treasure in heaven." Only God can give us a desire for "treasure in heaven." Therefore, we must forsake our treasure on earth and follow Jesus to receive "treasure in heaven."

You will notice how this passage begins. We are told that Jesus ‘was setting out on his journey’ (v. 17). And we know where that journey will lead. It will take Jesus to Jerusalem, where a cross awaits Him. He has already foretold His death twice in recent days, and He will speak of it again—in ...read more
