A Reckless Path Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on Apr 8, 2022

In Revelation 2:14 Balaam is a warning to the church. An insider causing the destruction. Beware of someone on the reckless path causing the church to compromise from within. It is the ultimate sell-out.

The story of Balaam is a fascinating one. What you might think of first with Balaam is that he was the prophet whose donkey spoke to him. It was incredible and there is nothing else quite like it in the Bible. Balaam is significant in Old Testament history and for the New Testament church. There ...read more

Contributed by James Wallace on Dec 28, 2020

How will you respond when living the Christian life becomes especially difficult--when compromise is clearly required in order to just get by in life? Take some cues from Daniel!

Once again, what a year 2020 has turned out to be. Evidence of that is obvious this morning. Who among us could have possibly predicted that a Sunday morning service at Risen King Community Church in 2020 would look like this? If we had taken a photo of today’s service in the future, I suspect ...read more

This is the season of Peace. Peace on earth, good will toward men. Peace is the most sought-after ‘commodity’ in our hectic lives. Mankind will go to great lengths to compromise for the sake of peace.

The Root Of Immorality

Contributed by Michael Stark on Mar 29, 2020

Have the professed people of God permitted themselves to be compromised by the world to such an extend that they are powerless against wickedness? Though the thought is frightful, Christians need to assess our relationship with the Living God.

The more they increased, the more they sinned against me; I will change their glory into shame. They feed on the sin of my people; they are greedy for their iniquity. And it shall be like people, like priest; I will punish them for their ways and repay them for their deeds. They shall eat, ...read more

"Had Been With Jesus”

Contributed by Bubot Parago on Nov 10, 2018

I believe that the propensity of our faith in the Gospel is to move us to boldly speak without compromise and obey to do what we have seen and heard so that we might speak.

I. had been with Jesus, GIVES US BOLDNESS: “They saw the boldness of Peter and John…” (v13) Free From Fear This is true courage which comes by faith. Yes; it is this boldness which comes by faith which makes men like Peter and John’s “...I will not fear,” just like David, “though the earth be ...read more

The Broken Church In This Broken World Series

Contributed by Allan Quak on Apr 28, 2012

Like the seven churches in Revelation the church today is broken - compromise, spiritually dead, lukewarm, loveless. The only way the church can have an impact is to hold onto the truth that Jesus is among us.

The last days will be marked by deception, compromise, and persecution of those who uphold the truth. However, as believers, we are called to stand firm, discerning between truth and error, and boldly declaring God’s unchanging Word.

Make up your mind to stand firm on what is right and resist the pressures to be popular or to conform. Pray and draw strength from God to resist pressure to compromise God’s truth.

When You Run God's Red Light… Series

Contributed by Rick Duncan on Jun 29, 2005

In the pages of the Old Testament in the book of Joshua we find a story – a rather frightening story – about how worldliness and compromise really hurt the people of God and brought on God’s judgement.

Which of God’s red lights are you most likely to run? Certainly, His top ten red lights are found in the Old Testament book of Exodus, chapter 20 – the Ten Commandments. “You shall have no other gods before Me.” When you consider not just the surface understanding of the command but the richer ...read more

What The Bible Says About Homosexuality

Contributed by John Gaston on Jun 29, 2015

We must decide whether we will have the courage to stand by what the Bible says or to abandon it completely and live like the world. To compromise the Word is not an option. It either IS or IS NOT GOD"S WORD!

WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS ABOUT HOMOSEXUALITY I. THE CLEAR BIBLICAL PATTERN FOR SEXUALITY Homosexuality is being here addressed because it is the subject of a lot of false teaching and mistruth about what the Bible has to say.
