    Water Is Thicker Than Blood

    Contributed by Michael Koplitz on Jun 2, 2021
     | 2,031 views

    Water is what brings Christians together. Our baptism by water makes us all family. The bonds of the branches to the vine should be stronger than blood bonds.

    The old saying that “blood is thicker than water” was being upended in this narrative. In this case, one can say that water is thicker than blood. Water is referring to the initiation rite of baptism. At that ceremony, the person being baptized with water becomes a member of the Christian family. ...read more

    The Truest Meaning Of Christmas

    Contributed by Jerry Stephens on Dec 3, 2014
     | 4,113 views

    At one time or another, most of us have had the experience of being on the outside looking in. More than anything else, for me Christmas is a celebration of inclusion and acceptance and restoration.

    Of all the “true meanings of Christmas,” this is perhaps the truest. When I was a boy, my relatively non-religious family had a Christmas Eve tradition. We’d have a formal, dress-up dinner, and then we’d sit together to talk, tell stories and perhaps read the Christmas ...read more

    Man can live 40 days without food.. 3Days without water.. 8 Minutes without air But we cant live without HOPE

    HOPE BETTER THAN AIR Hebrews 11:6 So, you see, it is impossible to please God without faith. Anyone who wants to come to him must believe that there is a God and that he rewards those who sincerely seek him. Hebrews 11:1 What is faith? It is the confident assurance that what we hope for is going ...read more

    Love Is Better Than Liberty Series

    based on 4 ratings
     | 14,582 views

    A tightrope is a picture of Christian liberty with legalism on one side and unrestrained license on the other. But somewhere in between the two is the beautiful tightrope of balance, and the balance bar for a Christian is love.

    INTRODUCTION I invite you to open your Bibles to Romans 14. We’re going to start reading at verse 13. You remember last week, I started the message by holding a gold earring to my ear and some of you thought, well there’s nothing wrong with a guy wearing an earring. But others of you, ...read more

    Jesus Greater Than Moses Series

    Contributed by Carl Allen on Mar 25, 2008
    based on 2 ratings
     | 3,239 views

    For the writer of Hebrews is was important to get across the point to his Jewish brethren that Jesus was greater than Moses. The people were stuck on the past and their traditions, and had missed the Messiah who was right there in their midst.

    Jesus Greater than Moses Hebrews 3:1-16 Intro Up to this point the writer of Hebrews has been doing his best to convince the non-believing in the area of the necessity of receiving Christ. The people are still stuck on their traditions and some see Jesus as equal to, or less than Moses. They ...read more

    We have witnessed devastation from flooding and erosion in our world. There is another form of erosion that is deadlier. It goes unseen until too late. It is surfacing in our society in political and cultural arenas, as morality and truth are jettison.

    The story of King Saul’s utter demise unfolds in 1 Samuel 15. The man who stood head and shoulders above all the people is imploding like a skyscraper building with the walls blown out.

    The bigger they are the harder they fall. It is dramatic to see a skyscraper building brought to the ground. Dynamite blows out the walls and the building collapses to the ground. What once filled the skyline becomes reduced to a pile of rubble. The story of King Saul’s utter demise unfolds in 1 ...read more

    The nimble adroitness needed for sword fighting seemed severely limited by the floppy handles and fat blades filled with air, but at least they were safe. High adventure with ABSOLUTELY NO DANGER.

    Part 17 - Matthew 10:34-42 - GIVE ME MORE THAN A BLOW-UP SWORD! My youngest grandson had a birthday party not too long back. It was a pirate party so all his mates came dressed in pirate gear - eye-patches, head scarves, etc. At the door we presented every pirate with a plastic blow-up sword, ...read more
