    There are many misconceptions about the second coming. Those misconceptions are common because people fail to see the Second Coming through biblical glasses.

    Clearing the Air: Common Misconceptions About the Second Coming Introduction: I heard this one country song by this man named John Connelly. John’s big hit was a song entitled “Rose Colored Glasses.” I have never looked through rose colored glasses, but I can only imagine how they might distort ...read more

    After encountering Jesus the women were commanded to go and tell. We carry on this mission because we too have encountered Jesus.

    Mark 16:1-8 “The Encounter” INTRODUCTION Routines, even in the face of death, are a part of life. They were present during the time of Jesus just like they are present now.

    What God Hates

    based on 10 ratings
     | 9,014 views

    God hates when we misuse the body He has given us for sinful purposes. Why? Because God hates sin.

    The words hate and God do not seem to go together. Yet, the writer of Proverbs clearly declares that God hates something. What is it? Our initial instinct would be to suggest the terrible two: murder and adultery. Others would suggest drunkenness or debauchery. Not so, according to the writer of ...read more

    The reason submission is so important for a wife is because of this key: The wife who willingly submits to her husband’s leadership glorifies God.

    “Sweet Surrender” Let me sum up the perfect picture for marriage again: God wants each marriage to be a portrait of His love for His glory! Romans 11:36 “For of Him and through Him and to Him are all things, to whom be all the glory forever.” Well, I knew today’s sermon was going to the hardest ...read more

    Good News?

    John wants to know whether Jesus is the Messiah, because it doesn’t seem that the gospel he’s proclaiming is good news. But it is!

    I guess everyone has some idea what we mean when we talk about the gospel. But I wonder what your preferred translation of that word would be. Is Good News the correct translation do you think? Is the gospel necessarily good news? You may never have thought about that question, but if you do ...read more

    Many Christians are not experiencing Pentecost for a number of reasons, but perhaps the greatest reason is because they are unaware of how rich and powerful it would make their lives.

    THE POWER OF PENTECOST Last week we looked at THE PURPOSE OF PENTECOST and we found that it is much more than exciting music and a motivational message. Pentecost will certainly: • Bring to us more of God’s power to live our daily lives, • Take us to a higher place of worship, • Cause us to ...read more

    So are you fanatically devoted to Jesus because you love God? Here are two ways you can know the answer to this question.

    fanatic: "marked by excessive enthusiasm and often intense uncritical devotion" Merriam-Websters Dictionary Does this word define how you follow Jesus?
