    Delusions That Defy Common Sense

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jun 16, 2021
     | 2,166 views

    The world system and all who live by it apart are deluded by both the devil and their own depraved minds. They believe they have everything figured out and can live without the intervention of God Almighty. Scripture proves otherwise.

    The apostle Paul told the church at Corinth that there is a time to put away childish things and assume the maturity and responsibility expected of an adult or mature young person (1 Corinthians 13:11). The time comes for everyone to grow up and realize that the world and all you know does not ...read more

    "am I Truly Jesus Focused"

    Contributed by Brad King on Dec 28, 2020

     | 2,277 views

    It is easy to assert that it is all about Jesus. Sometimes we believe that our focus is sincerely upon the person and work of Christ. But, is it? John the Baptist was Jesus focused, but when are we? Matthew 3:1-17 provides five moments when we are Jesus focused.

    1. We are focusing on Jesus when we call people to repentance. Mt. 3:1-2; Mt. 4:17 2. We are focusing on Jesus when we clarify his identity. Mt. 3:3; Is. 40:3; Mt. 16:13 3. We are focusing on Jesus when we complete our God given tasks. Mt. 3:4-6 4. We are focusing on Jesus when we ...read more

    How do we live in harmony? The secret is in the Lord’s Prayer, the beautiful prayer of the end-times that we recite in one voice every time we gather for Liturgy.

    2nd Sunday of Advent With this great reading about John the Baptist from Matthew’s Gospel, you probably expect me to sermonize on repenting of sin as a preparation for Christmas. You might anticipate an exhortation to examine your consciences, identify those actions and attitudes that estrange ...read more

    With the help of the Holy Spirit, we're going to talk about a “SOUL MAN”.

    BACK IN 1967, there was a song composed by Isaac Hayes and David Porter, called “Soul Man”. It first became successful as a number 2 hit single by Atlantic Records soul duo Sam & Dave, which consisted of Samuel “Sam” Moore and David “Dave” Prater. Over 53 years later in 2019, “Soul Man” was ...read more

    Message demonstrates the proliferation of warnings in Scripture and addresses the value of such warnings. It is tempting to avoid giving warnings. However, people can benefit from them when given in the right spirit.

    We are in a study of Philippians and our text today is found in chapter 3, verses 1-7.

     | 6,193 views

    If we want to go God's way in life, we have to: 1. Recognize the importance of repentance (vs. 1-2, 7). 2. Examine the essentials of life (vs. 2-6). 3. Focus on a fruitful life (vs. 5-9). 4. Trust Jesus to turn our lives around (vs. 10-12).

    Why leave John the Baptizer and go follow the Galillean Rabbi Jesus instead?

    Sam was confused. He had been following John for - how long had it been? Almost a year, he thought, it was just before the grape harvest and his parents had been really upset that he hadn’t stayed until the work was finished. But Sam just had to go. The Messiah was due soon, everybody knew it, and ...read more

    A Baptism By Fire

    based on 1 rating
     | 2,603 views

    Fire is a fierce, frightening force and we do not usually associate it with Jesus. However, this message shows how Jesus came bringing what John the Baptist calls an “unquenchable fire,” referring to God's judgement.

    A teenager walked into the local Catholic church and sat down in the confessional booth. He wanted to talk about how strict his mother had been with discipline, as he was seeking a sympathetic ear.

    Too Much Religion In The Wrong Place

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Sep 12, 2019
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,655 views

    Religion is the expression of one's faith put into practice. For many professed Christians, religion is all they have, because they don't have the faith of Christ the Lord. Too much religion will tend to lead us astray. Faith will lead us to Christ.

    “When [John] saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming to his baptism, he said to them, ‘You brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the wrath to come? Bear fruit in keeping with repentance. And do not presume to say to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our father,’ for I tell you, God ...read more

    As we continue to learn what kind of God the God of the Bible is we will preach about one last attribute.

    So far, we have preached about God's being holy, immutable, love, jealous, orderly, omnipotent, omniscient, and omnipresent. The Bible reveals all these attributes to us because God wants us to come to know Him. He knows we cannot WORSHIP and SERVE Him if we do not KNOW Him. Now, if I was a ...read more

    This was a video devotion that was on a web site during the first winter of COVID 19 with the United Christian Church (DoC) in mind. The phrase "mask up" near the end is in reference to wearing a mask because of COVID

    “It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas.” It was beginning to look a lot like Christmas at Home Depot before Hallowe’en.
