Take Hold Of Eternal Life

Contributed by Paul Sizemore on Sep 28, 2016

Jesus has just said, "No one can serve two masters; you cannot serve God and money" (Luke 16:13). Then Jesus goes on to share his parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus (Luke 16:19-31). Paul's words to Timothy (I Timothy 6:6-19) support Jesus' claim.

“Take Hold of Eternal Life” Amos 6:1-7; I Timothy 6:6-19; Luke 16:19-31 Proper 21-C, September 25, 2016 All three of the Scripture lessons read in our worship service this morning could easily remind us of that old adage: “You can’t have your cake and eat it too!” ...read more

On The Sabbath Series

Contributed by Peter Baumgartle on Apr 5, 2022

Everybody is religious. Many make up their own rules - about worship, about money, about sex, about the environment, about politics. Jesus isn't the Messiah many want Him to be. The Pharisees plotted to kill him. People today reject Him and dismiss Him and ignore Him. Are you a Pharisee?

ON THE SABBATH MATTHEW 12:1-2 At that time Jesus went through the grainfields on the Sabbath. His disciples were hungry and began to pick some heads of grain and eat them. When the Pharisees saw this, they said to him, “Look! Your disciples are doing what is unlawful on the Sabbath.” Question: ...read more

Come Home To The Lord Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Sep 12, 2022

Again, God says, “Return to me, and I will return to you.” The Lord says, “I don’t want this distance between us, RETURN, come back home!”

Consider this: An archbishop was carrying more than $460,000 across the border from Lebanon to Israel in the past month. I think immediately, “What’s a religious priest doing with that much money! How in the world did he think he was going to bring this through customs!” As the priest attempted to ...read more

The Task Of The Servant Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Aug 13, 2012

Jesus tells of 3 servants who were given valuable "talents". Why was the Master in this parable pleased with the first two servants, but angry with the 3rd? And how did the "value" of those talents effect the decisions of each of those three men?

OPEN: Does anybody know what is the highest mountain on earth is? (Mt. Everest) This mountain is located in the Himalayas on the borders of Nepal and China.

The Rich Fool Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Nov 4, 2018

Knee Bowed And Body Bent Series

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Nov 19, 2000

Since body language communicates our real feelings, we must pay attention to how we present our bodies to God -- in the words of James Weldon Johnson, "knee-bowed", ready to submit our wills to His; and "body-bent", ready to work for things that matter.

You may not speak a great many foreign languages, but there is one language other than English at which most of us are proficient. That is body language. Whether our mouths can pronounce strange sounds or whether our eyes can make any sense out of different alphabets, we can see body language. ...read more

The Best Is Yet To Come

Contributed by Pastor/Author: Terry Sisney on Jul 24, 2020

I know it's hard to look through the storm and see the sun shining on a new day. But that's exactly what the Holy Spirit encourages us to do. No matter how bad things look or feel, "the best is yet to come."

I have a word for you today that is going to require a stretch of faith to get a hold of. In fact it is so far out there that I know that some of you won't even reach for it.

The Road To Happiness, Joy And Peace

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Mar 31, 2022

The multitude, like many today had gotten their priorities confused. So much time is spent worrying about "things" that we lose sight of what truly matters and leads to happiness. We seek gold while dismissing God. We seek health while neglecting holiness.

Sermon – The Road To Happiness Luke 6:20-26 “And he lifted up his eyes on his disciples, and said, Blessed be ye poor: for yours is the kingdom of God. 21 Blessed are ye that hunger now: for ye shall be filled.

Mind Control 6 Series

Contributed by Clyde White on Mar 7, 2006

It matters not if you are a Christian or an unsaved person, in life the “BIG ONE” WILL come sooner or later. In God’s plan, because of His grace, He allows us to have the small (variegated) trials, so we won’t be crushed when the “BIG ONE” comes a

Proper perspective brings assurance and confidence. We have been looking at the desperate need for Believers to "Earnestly contend for the Faith, once for all delivered to the Saints". The Believer is bombarded from every direction with anything but "the Faith once delivered to the ...read more

It's About Time Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Apr 7, 2024

How many times in your life do you find yourself saying, “I wish I had more time?” The ironic thing about getting older is the longer you live, the more you find yourself saying that. Remember, life is time, and time is life.

The war on terrorism. The impending attack on Iraq. An economy that can’t quite seem to get back on track. How are you handling the uncertainty of all that? Add this to the typical stresses in life.

Marriage: A Pioneering Experience Or Working On Your Marriage Series

Contributed by Herman Abrahams on Apr 23, 2004

Marriage is like the conquest and settling of a new land. A new and unexplored territory stretches out before you. No matter how many people have settled down in marriage before, it is still a new and unsettled land for each couple that enters into it.
