Entire Sanctification Defined

Contributed by Darin Gary on Jun 25, 2016

So many within the HOLINESS MOVEMENT (non-charismatic), ORTHODOX METHODISM, and WESLEYAN-ARMINIAN Churches (and, sometimes educational institutions) struggle with understanding, appropriating, and teaching BIBLICAL HOLINESS.

ENTIRE SANCTIFICATION DEFINED (Leviticus 19:1-2) “…the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, [2] Speak to all the congregation of the children of Israel, and say to them: ‘You shall be holy, for I the LORD your God am holy.’” Entire Sanctification is a term we hear; and, often ...read more

Sign, Sign, Everywhere A Sign Series

Contributed by Matthew Rogers on Feb 20, 2002

All churches have signs. Most of these are not literal signs, but rather unwritten messages that are communicated loud and clear - especially to people who don’t go to church.

The Greatest Place on Earth – Part 4 February 3, 2002 (For this message we had 6 signs made and I unveiled them one at a time. In our foyer we have permanently hung the three that communicate what churhes should. Thanks to Mike Breaux, Lexington, KY for the seed idea.) INTRODUCTION Play the ...read more

Unleavened Bread And The Passover - The Bread In The Lord’s Supper – The Meanings Of Them All Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Mar 1, 2025

The bread in the Lord’s Supper. We examine the Jewish Passover and concentrate on the unleavened bread. The Lord’s Supper came from that Passover so we see how it relates. Different denominations treat the Lord’s Supper/Communion differently. We consider the leaven as well.

UNLEAVENED BREAD AND THE PASSOVER - AND THE LORD’S SUPPER – THE MEANINGS OF THEM ALL The purpose of this article is not for dispute. It is to provide information. I suppose some will disagree with me on some point here and there, because not all things related to this message are clear cut. ...read more

Listen, have you ever read the Bible and then saw a scripture and went, "What’s up with that?" I mean, "Why did God say that? Why did God do that? That doesn’t make any sense to me."

Jesus, Our Passover Part 1: Naked...or Nekid? Series

Contributed by Pastor Jeff Hughes on Jan 23, 2014

Years ago, a major Protestant denomination removed many hymns that spoke of the blood of Jesus, citing they did not want to offend people. However, without the blood of Jesus Christ "there can be no remission of sin"...and we need to be reminded of that!

Monday Heb 9:22 And according to the law almost all things are purified with blood, and without shedding of blood there is no remission. NKJV As we approach Passion Week in the next month, we are going to focus on some of the key teachings that surround the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross. Back ...read more

"What About Judging Others?"

Contributed by Marilyn Murphree on Jul 12, 2005

Scripture has much to say about judging others. Should we refuse to decline to make any assessment of others since non of us is perfect? What does scripture say?

God: Past, Present, And Future Series

Contributed by Floyd Johnson on Dec 17, 2006

The Historical books have traditionally been included in the prophetical books because they tell the story of the lessor prophets (i.e. the non-writing prophets). They too point us toward Christ.

An Oasis In The Desert Series

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Dec 16, 2009
