    Be Ready Part 2 Series

     | 3,878 views

    Just because you are a church member, gives no guarantee of salvation. All quote from Scripture is from the NASB

    Jesus is coming again. Each day is one day closer to that Day. Jesus give many warning about that day. Matthew 24:42 “Therefore be on the alert, for you do not know which day your Lord is coming. In His Olivet Discourse, Jesus talks about the perilous times that wait for us as the time of His ...read more

    Until Jesus comes, it does matter what we do or fail to do. All Bible quotes are from the NASB.

    The return of Jesus is perhaps one of the most talked about things by Jesus and subject of many parables, not just these in the these two chapter of Matthew 24-25. Jesus talked about the signs of His second coming in Chapter 24, which we covered over the past few weeks. The last three parables ...read more

    Regardless of what our motives might be, we should keep in mind the end result. That is what's going to show up in our record.

    The Bible contains messages for two classes of people: Salvation for the lost, a life of service for the Christian. There are many motives for serving God: 1. Fear. Genesis 22:12 2. Love; 1 John 5:3 3. Duty 4. Show of; Luke 18:9-12 Five things I want to notice about our record. I. Recorded; Job ...read more

    A template for us to see if we are being a faithful or unfaithful servant to the Master.

    Are you being faithful?

     | 5,234 views

    The phrase "Awaken Church to Your Purpose!" is a compelling call to action that confidently urges the church—believers united—to recognize, embrace, and actively engage in its divine mission to reach out and bring hope to those who are lost.

    SCRIPTURAL REFERENCES (Matthew 25:1-5) (1) "Then the kingdom of heaven, shall be likened to ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom." (2) " Now five of them were wise, and five were ...read more

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Jul 19, 2022
     | 3,362 views

    This exposition of Zechariah 8:9-13 focuses on the importance of Christians being on task and fulfilling their God-given calling in life. This remnant of Jews suffered unnecessary troubles when neglecting their God-given assignment but blessing as they obeyed.

    Intro Our text today begins in Zechariah 8:9 with the words: “Thus says the Lord of hosts: 'Let your hands be strong.’”i The word translated strong is chazaq. It means “to be strong, be courageous, be firm, be resolute.”ii God used this word three times when commissioning Joshua for the task of ...read more

    Investing Our Talents Series

     | 5,644 views

    Believers are supposed to invest their spiritual gifts, and multiply them by winning other people to faith in Christ. If we fail to labor in the kingdom, then perhaps we don’t know Christ after all, and we will be cast into outer darkness.

    This evening’s sermon is entitled, “Investing Our Talents,” and it’s taken from what is called “The Parable of the Talents.” In reference to this passage, Donald S. Whitney states, “[God] said in Matthew 25:14-30, that we are accountable for all the talents we have received and how we use them for ...read more

    Taking Care Of What God Has Given Us

     | 9,887 views

    God is not only concerned with what is created, he is concerned with how we take care of what was created. Nehemiah began moving from the building project itself, to taking the necessary steps to insure that what was built (or created) would be protected and preserved.

    When he arrived, Nehemiah inherited leadership over three distinct groups of returnees to the land: • The returnees from 536-516 BCE, who lived and worked under Zerubbabel the governor, and were chastised by Haggai the prophet to get the work finished. • The returnees from 458 BCE, who came to the ...read more

    God wants us to recognize the grace He has bestowed on us, appreciate the gift He has blessed us with, and set out to diligently and faithfully carry out the work He has entrusted into our hands.

    In Matthew 25: 14-30, Jesus told a parable of a man who gave talents to three of his servants. The first received 5 talents, the second servant 2 talents and the third was given 1 talent. The talents were not shared arbitrarily; haphazardly, blindly, aimlessly, by chance, by coincidence or ...read more
