Ready Or Not He Will Come

Contributed by J Jeffrey Smead on Nov 29, 2011

As a child I really enjoyed playing hide and go seek. Little did I realize as a child how much this game of hide and seek paralleled the Return - The Second Coming of Jesus Christ.

As a child I really enjoyed playing... hide and go seek. I loved it ...no matter if ...I was the one hiding ... trying not to get caught, ... or if I was the one seeking; ......who was trying to catch those hiding... unexpectedly.

Palm Sunday: Celebrate The King

Contributed by Dan Cormie on Mar 23, 2013

The crowd announces in their cries that Jesus is the awaited king and they offer shouts of praise. When the Pharisees tell Jesus to rebuke them - he rather confirms what they are saying.

The Greenhouse Of The Mind Series

Contributed by Christian Cheong on Oct 30, 2010

Cultivate purity in our thoughts. You need conviction and commitment, confession and cleansing, you need to forsake and flee, and to renew our mind and revive your spirit.

We need to protect our mind, because we are what we think. • It will be garbage in, garbage out. The more trash we put in, the more trash we would see in words and deeds. You reap what you plant. • We need to set up this “greenhouse” of the mind - to make sure that no virus or pests enter. 2 ...read more

Keeping People From God Series

Contributed by Ken Henson on Oct 15, 2012

Could it be that it is us who keep people from coming to Jesus? Just like the crowd obstructed the blind beggars from coming to Jesus, or the disciples from letting the children come to Jesus, we as Christians tend to pose obstacles to come to Jesus!

The blind men want to see Jesus. We know from Mark that one of those blind men were named Bartimaeus, and he had been blind all his life. First thing you see when you open your eyes is Jesus. I think that would be a wonderful thing! But we see that the crowd rebukes them. This is like the people ...read more

If Only I Had It To Do All Over Again Series

Contributed by Scott Chambers on Oct 3, 2008

The message examines Solomon as he reflects upon his life toward the end of his days.

In preparation for this message I decided to Google the phrase, “If only I had it all to do over again” and needless to say, I was amazed by the results. The search yielded 47 million results in a fraction of a second, 0.12 to be exact. After some moments of reflection the amazement started to wear ...read more

Christ's Desire

Contributed by Jerry Flury on Apr 18, 2011

Which Virgin Are You?

Contributed by Boniface Simiyu on Feb 4, 2022

Jesus gave us a clear description of the characteristics of two distinct types of Christians. By the characteristics mentioned which one are you?

1 Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom. 2 And five of them were wise, and five were foolish. Christians are so used to not reading their bibles that they quickly fill up their heads with many versions of this ...read more

A King? On A Donkey?

Contributed by Clarence Eisberg on Apr 2, 2020

Why does the story of Palm Sunday begin with Jesus on a donkey? Prophecy fulfilled. A living parable. Corrie Ten Boom said: Eveyone one singing. Waving palm branches... do you think for a moment the donkey thought it was for him? Let me be the donkey on which Jesus rides in His glory.
