    By Grace Unto Works

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on May 7, 2017
     | 4,264 views

    A debate has raged for centuries regarding salvation. Is salvation an act of grace, obtained through works, or the result of a combination of grace and works? The Bible is clear regarding this question.

    By Grace unto Works Ephesians 2: 8-10 Our text today deals with doctrine that has been debated for centuries. This debate was central to Martin Luther’s Ninety-Five Theses being nailed to the chapel door in Wittenberg, Germany, sparking the Reformation. Men and scholars have long debated the means ...read more

    Whenever you see a pageant and you hear the question, ‘what is the most important thing society needs’, the contestant will typically answer, ‘world peace’. Everybody wants peace but there seems to be so little of it. Why? I believe Jesus has the answer.

    The Conditioning In Discipleship Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jun 15, 2016
     | 9,546 views

    Many believers suffer "burn-out" or from lack of preparation. Like any other pursuit, if we are to be effective in service, we must make the proper preparations and condition ourselves spiritually.

    The Conditioning in Discipleship 1 Corinthians 9: 24-27 Over the past several weeks we have been discussing discipleship and what the Scripture reveals about being a disciple of Christ. I am convinced the Lord desires every believer to be a disciple, but discipleship is not immediate following ...read more

    The Command In Discipleship Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jun 15, 2016
     | 8,864 views

    I fear many fail to consider the seriousness of Jesus' command to make disciples. As followers of Christ, we are all commanded to make other disciples. Thankfully, our Lord provided insight to His great command.

    The Command in Discipleship Matthew 28:19-20; Acts 1:8 After several weeks of discussion and consideration, I hope to conclude our series on discipleship. Hopefully we have been enlightened regarding discipleship, having a greater knowledge of what is expected, and how to be better equipped as ...read more

    Gal 5:1-15 FREED TO BE LIKE CHRIST Paul concluded chapter 4 emphasizing the truth that we, as Christians, are no longer living under the slavery to the law. • We are children of the promise, living in the freedom that Christ has obtained for us through the cross. • He uses the ...read more

    1. Have you ever stopped to consider the many perils of not being a Christian? Paul did in this passage.

    1. Have you ever stopped to consider the many perils of not being a Christian? Paul did in this passage. In these verses Paul writes, "Therefore, God gave them up to their uncleanness." It is a terrible thing to be given over to one’s sinful nature. The degradation of self-destructive sinful ...read more

    1. What does God want? -- My whole life. 2. What does it take? -- Discipline 3. Why should I do it? -- The Cross!

    (The outline of this sermon and some of the content has been adapted from Rick Warren’s Forty Days of Purpose material). I recently read this scripture from Isaiah and was struck at how this passage contained the entire message of the Bible in just a few words. More than that, it is the whole ...read more

    An Eggsample Of Folly

     | 2,137 views

    We are often like the character Humpty Dumpty. Peter was too.

    Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall, Humpty Dumpty had a great fall, all the King’s horses and all the King’s men could not put Humpty Dumpty together again! There is more than a nursery rhyme there. It is a parable of life, its injuries and the failure of human effort alone. This is an EGGsample of ...read more

    Know your mother and throw out the other. Stop trying to earn your way, and start enjoying your way to heaven.

    Mary Hickey talks about the time when she was expecting her first baby. Then, a six-year-old neighbor girl was particularly curious.

    While Jonah the prophet of God thought of no one but himself, the mariners who were unbelievers were so concerned about him. The church needs to be filled with those who have compassion for the lost, who depend on entirely on the Lord and lead many into His Kingdom.

    We read in Jonah 1:11-14, The storm was getting worse all the time, so the sailors asked him, “What should we do to you to stop the storm?” Jonah answered, “Throw me into the sea, and it will calm down. I know it is my fault that you are caught in this violent storm.” Instead, the sailors tried to ...read more
