    Telos

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Jul 9, 2018
     | 3,290 views

    Of all the sins listed in our Gospel today, the telos in that list is extremely off-course from God.

    22B People put their entire moral analysis on intention only; e.g. If my intention is good, I can do it. But actually, “telos” is the word in the Bible that orients ourselves toward God. Telos means “purpose, intent, goal.” E.g. Bulimia is acting against the telos of eating. A couple good ...read more

    How To Be Good Without Being A Hypocrite Series

    Contributed by Art Campbell on Aug 8, 2022
     | 1,765 views

    It seems that the more strongly we hold moral views the more we insist others hold them as well, and the harder it is to live by them, and we get into this cycle of bullying, hypocrisy and moral failure. So how can we be good without being a hypocrite?

    HYPOCRISY IN THE CHURCH When I was younger, the church pretty much had the corner on hypocrisy, at least as society told the story. People didn’t want to go to church because it was full of hypocrites. To which we sometimes replied, come on in then, we’ve room for more. And that’s not an unfair ...read more

    Good morning, Church! A hearty welcome to everyone. Today, we're diving deep into the Book of Psalms, Psalm 1:1 to be exact.

    Explore and understand the themes of salvation by grace through faith, the necessity of being born again, and God's love as a relationship with us, as depicted in John 3:1-14.

    Good morning, Church! Today, we're diving deep into John 3:1-14 As C.S Lewis once said, "The Christian does not think God will love us because we are good, but that God will make us good because He loves us." Let's read together from John 3:1-14: [Read passage] Let's pray. Dear Heavenly Father, we ...read more

    Saving The Local Church And Pastor From Extinction. Series

    Contributed by Jan Oosthuizen on Aug 18, 2019
     | 2,983 views

    More and more people are leaving local institutional churches and pick and choose their spiritual diet on social media. Evangelism, and belonging to a local body of believers is on the increasing decline!

    When the smallest cell in the body is under attack, it brings the demise of the whole. For as long as I can remember, there has always been a tension between the local church pastor and the staff of parachurch organisations. Parachurch organisasions work outside and across denominations to ...read more

    Prelude As we continue our series of messages on “End Time Prophecy” we enter into the second chapter of Revelation which starts out with a letter to the seven churches in Asia Minor. Consider this that these letters can be viewed three different ways. 1. They can be viewed ...read more

     | 4,907 views

    Society today dictates that tolerance is to accept and agree with whatever someone or something believes is ok . God dictates that we love unconditionally, but uphold a standard of Holiness.

    “Are You Dressed Right” By Bishop Melvin L. Maughmer, Jr. SCRIPTURE: 1 Peter 3:12 “For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and his ears are open unto their prayers: but the face of the Lord is against them that do evil”.

    Why Sincerity and Morality are Not Sufficient – Rom. 10:2-4

    Why Sincerity and Morality are Not Sufficient – Rom. 10:2-4 There is a widespread belief in America that if people are sincere and moral that they will somehow be acceptable. We see many commendable examples of people who sincerely try to be good, but fail to realize that they are still unable ...read more

    An Accurate "I" Exam Series

    Contributed by Rob Jansons on Sep 14, 2010
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,311 views

    This is a New Year's sermon when our culture preaches "believe in yourself" and Scripture teaches us what happens when we do. It is a prelude sermon to a covert series on Calvinism.

    It is the first Sunday of the new year. In our culture this is a time of getting psyched up for a new year of doing our best, setting some ambitious goals, trying harder, putting our best foot forward. Maybe you expect a little encouragement from your church; give us some spiritual justification ...read more

    "People don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care!" A book about how to overcome feelings of fear and anger would be incomplete without a description of Paul’s teachings on love in I Corinthians 13. Perfect love is able to cast away f

    Follow And Serve The One Who Will Never Leave You

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Jun 11, 2015
     | 7,051 views

    We must use the courage that a life in faith with God gives us to live a life that is more revolutionary than our secular world or any other non-Christian faith. God will give us the courage to work like army commandos.

    If I told you that religion is not the same as Christianity, would you be surprised? Religion is man's attempt to reach God. It focuses on our deeds. It is the broken cistern referred to in Jeremiah 2:4-13. Christianity is God's attempt to reach man. We are meant to be fully in relationship with ...read more

    Core 52 Week 5 - Holiness Series

    Contributed by Lanny Smith on Mar 2, 2020
     | 1,972 views

    Some things are set apart for specific uses and specific people. We “get it” instinctively that some things are not common. They’re special because of their purpose or perhaps an emotional attachment. That uniqueness, special regard is the idea behind the biblical concept of holiness.

    God loved us so much that He gave up His only begotten Son, as the blood-price of our justification. You and I first enter that covenant when we, or our parents and godparents, make covenant promises to God at our baptism.

    Thursday of 5th Week in Lent 2014 Lumen Fidei The Gospel of John, more than the Synoptics, clearly states what the Church has always and everywhere taught–Jesus is the fleshly manifestation of the same God who made a covenant of love and fidelity with Abraham.
