    The Book Of Galatians – Chapter 1:10-24 - Message 3 – Paul Resorts To Personal Testimony Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Feb 3, 2023
     | 1,516 views

    Those engaged in ministry must not be men pleasers or compromise the gospel through fear or laziness. Preach the true gospel of grace as honest ministers. Doctrinal stability must be maintained. Paul had to restate the gospel to the Galatians using his own personal testimony.

    THE BOOK OF GALATIANS – CHAPTER 1:10-24 - MESSAGE 3 – PAUL RESORTS TO PERSONAL TESTIMONY We are going to continue our meditation in this first chapter of Galatians. Last time we looked at reason why Galatians was written, looked at the people, and looked at the importance of the purity of the ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 2,047 views

    Most people believe they will go to Heaven when they die. It is the great future promise of God to every human being. However, Jesus said He was the only way to get there.

    Some believe that the Earth may be the future location of Heaven (Romans 8:19-22, Matthew 5:5, Revelation 21:1; 2 Peter 3:10,13). Others believe Heaven is a planet located somewhere in the Universe or even in the Sun! In actuality, Heaven exists outside the dimensions of both space and time. What ...read more

    An Advent journey through the whole story of the bible from Genesis to Revelation - by using six trees from the Bible

    In the wilderness a voice splits open the wind, a hard cry— REPENT Even now the axe gleams, lying at the root of the trees, cold as truth, waiting for the weight of a just hand. Every tree that bears no good fruit leans already toward its ending, toward the fire that hungers for what has hollowed ...read more

    Small Things Matter PRO Sermon

    Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Sep 28, 2025
    based on 3 ratings
     | 147 views

    God values faithfulness in small, unseen acts; our ordinary, everyday obedience matters deeply and shapes us for greater purposes in His kingdom.

    If you’ve ever held a mustard seed between your fingers, you know how small it is—hardly more than a speck. Yet tucked inside that tiny shell is a towering tree in the making. In the same way, God tucks holy possibility into small places: the quiet errand, the thank-you note, the picked-up towel, ...read more

    God sees and values our hidden faithfulness, works through our weakness, and calls us to trust His authority and power through prayerful obedience.

    Some of us know the quiet corners of life—the cubicle where no one notices, the kitchen where you serve with a smile, the classroom where faith is a whisper. You wonder, Does God see me here? Does this count? Friend, the Father’s eyes are not dim. He sees the sparrow’s flight and your faithful ...read more

    Exposition of the planting of the church at Philippi and truths valuable for our infant church.

    Many of the churches we read of the Apostle Paul’s foundational work in the book of Acts. When we turn the pages of history and take glance at this church some 40 years later, the church has become complacent spiritually. Not so with the church at Philadelphia. This church is praised for their ...read more

    When we discern God’s grace, we will demonstrate gratitude to God.

    We are looking at Psalm 116 this morning. The content and relationship described in this Psalm cause one to think that the psalm writer is King David. This psalm is a personal testimony of thanksgiving to God. Over 30 times, the writer uses "I," "me," and "my." The words contrast the difficulties ...read more
