    The Key To Righteous Living

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jan 15, 2014
    based on 5 ratings
     | 8,526 views

    Jesus came not to destroy the law, but to keep and fulfill it. We also are required to be obedient to the law - not indeed as a means of salvation (which it could never be) - but as an expression of our love and service.

    THE KEY TO RIGHTEOUS LIVING. Matthew 5:17-20. 1. Jesus’ statement is emphatic:- “Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill” (Matthew 5:17). The righteousness of God is the Lord Jesus Christ. He is the end of the law, the one to whom ...read more

    Thank you Pastor John Hamby for the original message. Much of this has remained the same, simply because it spoke to our need so well.

    I want to begin looking at our theme for 2014, which is “Learning to be the light.” We’ll start by looking a passage in Matthew 5 and before we look at the idea of being light I believe we need to look at this concept of being salt. Since Jesus added salt to light, here, ...read more

    There’s nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We were born to manifest the glory of God that is within us . . . And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. Nelson Mandela

    Nelson Mandela once said; “Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, “Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous?” Actually, ...read more

    Lighting The Way Series

    Contributed by James Lee on Nov 10, 2014
     | 8,308 views

    We, as believers have experienced the light and know how wonderful it is to be in the light. But for many, darkness is all they have ever known.

    In the nineteenth century, lighthouses on the U.S. coasts were tended by lighthouse keepers and their families. If a man who tended the light took ill or became disabled, often the work was the picked up by his wife or children. This was the case of Hosea Lewis. In 1853, Lewis became the keeper of ...read more

    A young boy went with his parents touring around Europe one summer. Part of their tour included visits to the great old cathedrals of the past. As he visited each cathedral he was impressed by the massive stained glass portraits of the disciples and of other saints. He stood amazed, as the ...read more

    The Law Of The Lord Is Perfect

    God has given us a perfect law. It still speaks God's will and word to us and if we will hear it, we will be called to follow God's perfect Son.

    The Law of the Lord is Perfect I was thinking about our legal system in America. (slide 1) I looked up some information that I thought would set the stage for our sermon today. Here are some of the “Statutes at Large” 123 volumes, which make up all the laws passed by Congress. My ...read more

    Contributed by David Henderson on Dec 29, 2014
    based on 3 ratings
     | 16,168 views

    The Bible is a book about change. It is a book that tells us how to change so that we can become mature; complete; holy servants of Jesus Christ. Until we are completely free of all; the hurts, habits and hang-ups of this life.

    “Keep the Change” Matthew 5:9 and Romans 12:1-2 I think we call all agree today that the Bible is an amazing book. 66 books, not written by one man, but 39 written over a period of 1500 years. And there is a thread that runs through the scripture from Genesis to Revelation that ...read more

    Have We Not Rather Mourned?

    Contributed by Dale Mcanally on Dec 30, 2014
     | 3,520 views

    Mourning in it’s truest sense in the scriptures means intercession, travail, and earnest supplication. Mourning means that we are seeing or perceiving people and situations through the eyes of the Lord rather than through the judgment of the flesh.

    Jesus practiced mourning regularly. He said in Matthew 23:37, “O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would ...read more

     | 15,392 views

    When Jesus says, “You are the salt of the earth” He is speaking of our conduct and character while yet living in this sin-cursed world. He is saying we are different or we ought to be different and live different than the rest of the world.

    “You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot.” (NIV.) Introduction Salt is a very precious commodity, especially during ancient times. It was so ...read more
