How Bright Is Your Light?

Contributed by William Akehurst on Jul 17, 2023

Ancient Paths Are Ripped Up And Crooked Ways Prevail Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on May 13, 2024

Our nations have bulldozed out the ancient paths that were set for us by more decent legislators and leaders in the past; indeed, by God Himself. Every moral statute of God has now been trashed – marriage, creation, birth, sexuality. Judah did that and met God’s judgement.

ANCIENT PATHS ARE RIPPED UP AND CROOKED WAYS PREVAIL {{Jeremiah 6:16 Thus says the LORD, “Stand by the ways and see, AND ASK FOR THE ANCIENT PATHS WHERE THE GOOD WAY IS, AND WALK IN IT, and you shall find rest for your souls, but they said, ‘We will not walk in it.

The Freedom Of Light Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Jul 6, 2014

Conquering Inner Struggles! Series

Contributed by Dave Martin on May 21, 2001

Why do we do the things we do? What causes us to do things we really don’t want to do? Why do I struggle with not doing the things I really want to do? Conscience is our moral awareness that judges an action either right or wrong. It’s our inborn sense of right and wrong.

The Real Noah

Contributed by Chris Kelly on May 20, 2014

After the movie "Noah" with Russel Crowe, I felt that people needed to rediscover who the bible reveals Noah to be. The differences are stunning.

The “REAL” Noah Anybody here watch the recent movie “Noah” with Russel Crowe? I went last week. It was pretty good as a movies go, but as I watched it, I thought it would bring up a lot of questions for people who didn’t really know what the bible says about Noah. ...read more

How To Be A Christian Citizen Series

Contributed by David Dykes on Oct 30, 2014

God has drawn a moral standard, a line. “That’s my boundary. That’s my spiritual fault line. You better move your life to get in line with it.” And too many Americans are saying, “No, I want to move God’s line and change God’s standard to fit my life.”

INTRODUCTION Open your Bibles to Romans 13. I think sometimes our families are sent by God to keep us humble. I remember when I was pastoring a church in Alabama, and Jenni was a little girl. She saw me get up to preach and she said, “Daddy, what are you doing before you get up to ...read more

Contributed by Matthew Kratz on Jan 24, 2019

In Galatians 5:13b-15, Paul gives four purposes of God’s call to the freedom of loving Him: 1) To oppose the flesh (GALATIANS 5:13B), 2) To serve others (GALATIANS 5:13B), 3) To fulfill His moral law (GALATIANS 5:14), and 4) To avoid harming others (GALATIANS 5:15).
