    Romans 3:9-15 9 What then? Are we better than they? Not at all.

    One of the greatest truths of Christianity is God's promise to always be with the Born-Again Christian in every situation and circumstance of life. This is one truth that is known, yet somehow is hard to truly believe!

    "Surely God is my salvation; I will trust and not be afraid. The LORD, the LORD, is my strength and my song; he has become my salvation." (Isaiah 12:2 NIV) A Harris Poll taken for the American Psychiatric Association (Stress in America Survey 1/2012) discovered that 81% of women say ...read more

    The Superhumans

    Contributed by John Gaston on Aug 9, 2020
     | 2,247 views

    In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus tells us that not only are we capable of living more powerful lives than other humans, but that He expects us too! We're eagles living in a chicken's world!

    THE SUPERHUMANS Mt. 5:46-47 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: CHEERFUL GIVER 1. Hoping to develop his son’s character, a father gave his son a $20 bill and a $1 bill as he was dropping him off for children’s church. 2.

    This sermon is about honesty and oaths. (from May 5, 2013).

    SO HELP ME GOD Text: Matthew 5:33 – 37 I once heard a comedian tell a joke that had a rhetorical question. If you were a lawyer, his joke may or may not have been funny depending on whether or not the given lawyer or lawyers had a sense of humor. His joke went like this: “How can you tell ...read more

    A look into relationships - what hinders them, why we must work at them while we have the opportunity

    The item I want to encourage you to add to your bucket list this morning can be a real tough one for people. In fact, I’ll bet there are some here today who would rather include bungee jumping, sky diving, and swimming with sharks and alligators on their list ahead of this item.

    Playing No Favorites--Like God Does Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Feb 28, 2023
     | 1,217 views

    Jesus tells us today not just to forgive our enemies, something we heard earlier in the Gospel, but to wish them well, to do good to them, and, yes, to love them.

    Saturday of the First Week of Lent 2023 One of the worst heresies of the past two thousand years, an opinion that keeps coming back with almost predictable regularity, is the error first heard in early times from Marcion. The idea is that the God of the OT was a harsh, vindictive judge, almost ...read more

    The Book Of Galatians – Chapter 3:1-9 - Message 6 – Paul Chastises The Galatians With Questions; And Righteous Abraham Justified By Faith Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Mar 2, 2023
     | 1,885 views

    It is as if a spell had been cast on the Galatians to cause them to turn to the Law to keep it. Faith preceded the Law and faith supersedes the Law. Paul asked a series of questions to confront them. Abraham, the believer, is given as the great example without the Law but by faith.

    The Cross Has Enemies Series

     | 1,244 views

    Sergio’s enemy of the priest that turned him away became his inspiration to help others. Even the ones we see as representing Jesus can (at times) be an enemy. And today, our lesson is that The Cross Has Enemies.

    WELCOME & INTRODUCTION FIGHTING THE GOOD FIGHT Sergio Gutierrez Benitez was a kid growing up in a tough neighborhood of Mexico City in the 1950s. By age ten he’d already joined a gang, committed petty crimes, and started using drugs—marijuana at first, then harder drugs. Finally, after years ...read more

    How do we posture ourselves for Revival? This message draws upon the Beatitudes for answers to that question.

    I want to share with you eight keys attitudes for revival. I confess up front that this list is not original with me. I got it from the greatest revivalist who ever lived. He shared these insights at the beginning of his Sermon on the Mount. We often refer to these eight attitudes of heart as the ...read more

    "crumbs"

    Contributed by Gordon Pike on Mar 6, 2023
     | 2,013 views

    As we come to this table and feast on this bread and wine, I am so grateful that God is the One who made up the guest list and not one of us and you should also be grateful that I am not the one who determines who may or may not sit at the table, amen?

    [This sermon was part of a Communion Service.] Welcome to the Lord’s Table. Today we ‘feast’ on … [hold up a piece of bread and a communion cup]. To the naked eye, this doesn’t seem to be much of a “feast,” does it? A typical ‘royal’ feast in Jesus’ day would start out with an appetizer to whet ...read more

    A Word Concerning Confrontation Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Dec 1, 2021
     | 2,728 views

    Most of us have, at some point, desired to get even with those who have wronged us. There is something within our human nature that desires to “return the favor.” These attitudes are contrary to God's will for our lives.

    A Word Concerning Confrontation Matthew 5: 38-42 As we continue our study in the Sermon on the Mount, we come to a passage that we all have heard a portion of quoted many times in our lives: An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth. This is often quoted in anger, or in a desire to repay a wrong ...read more

    Love Beyond Limits Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Dec 8, 2021
     | 4,259 views

    Just as it was in Jesus’ day, many have a perception of love, but it is not love as God commands. Much of what we see today described as love does not fit the biblical model for love.

    Love beyond Limits Matthew 5: 43-48 As we close out the fifth chapter of Matthew, we are getting close to the midway point of the great sermon Jesus preached. For the past several weeks we have considered various contrasts Jesus made regarding time honored traditions and the reality of what God ...read more

     | 2,303 views

    In this message we examine what Jesus taught about the sixth commandment. While the commandment says we should not kill, Jesus explains the true intent of the commandment - unjust anger.
