    Have We Lost Our Churches To Worldliness? Series

    Contributed by Eric Agyei Febiri on May 18, 2023
     | 1,599 views

    Churches are expected to guide and form the conscience of society and people by pointing out the truth without fear or favour. Some of our churches today however, have lost their moral authority to the world because of power, fame, and money by their leaders.

    Morality is now measured by the votes of the Senate and the Parliament, and not the individual conscience. Civil authorities and those in power now vote to decide what is sin and what is not sin, what is lawful and what is unlawful. And this has now crept into our Churches, but Church leaders ...read more

    God is not a big muscle-guy waiting to pounce on us if we do something morally wrong.

    Trinity Sunday 2023 If you walked in a little late for our service today, you may have arrived after all the Scripture was proclaimed. Except for the psalm, we are given only eleven verses in the OT and NT to consider. But they are very dense in meaning. God is not a big muscle-guy waiting to ...read more

    Develop Healthy Partnerships Series

    Contributed by Curry Pikkaart on Jul 24, 2012
     | 5,262 views

    Since the Church has too long tolerated the teaching of our culture on sexuality and sexuaol relationships, it's time to speak up about building quality relationships.

    “Building Quality Relationships: With Jesus – Develop Healthy Partners” Eph. 5:3-8; 1 Cor. 6:9-20 Sometimes the words of Scripture hit me in the gut. In preparation for today’s message I was directed to such words, from Jesus Himself. In Rev. 2:19 Jesus commends the Church ...read more

    As a Christian travels the path of life, God encourages us to be careful.

    FOCUS: 33 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. QTR 1: 18 Fix these words of mine in your hearts and minds; tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads. Ephesians 5:15-20: 15 Be very careful, then, how you live ...read more

    Daniel was a man sold out to the Holy Spirit and as a result it influenced his life situation, rather than letting his life situations influence him. Our commitments in life reveal what our hearts treasure.

     | 4,114 views

    In this message the need for the Word of God as the moral and spiritual foundation of of our Christian life and hope is related to the story of Ezra reading the Law to the exiles who had returned to rebuild Jerusalem.

    …Before the Water Gate Nehemiah 8: 1-12 A sermon preached by Charles J. Tomlin, DMin All the people gathered together into the square before the Water Gate. They told the scribe Ezra to bring the book of the law of Moses, which the LORD had given to Israel. 2 Accordingly, the priest Ezra ...read more

    It’s a constant battle to make prayer not just external, but an action of listening to God that can change our hearts and behaviors.

    Tuesday of 21st week in Course Today we have one of the great analogies of Biblical literature–only St. Matthew has it–you strain out the gnat and swallow the camel. Jesus says “Oy! You nitpick the little stuff and neglect the critical duties.” The people described by the Hebrew word ...read more

    When The Veil Is Lifted

    Moses was overwhelmed by the immorality and religious practices from Egypt brought from Egypt. He had met God who gave him the Ten Commandments to implement within the new culture. He had a Shekinah Glory experience--God on earth. The Light of God radiated in his face.

    This past Sunday our pastor was recovering from the flu. When I asked him how he was doing, he said he was about 70% recovered. He then shared this with the church. As he began to preach there appeared to be a sincere heartfelt message flowing from deep within. A middle-aged man always makes a ...read more

    How do you boil a society? How do you boil a whole nation? Paul knew the recipe or formula two thousand years ago and he spelled it out very clearly in his letter to the Christian community in Rome.

    We live in an amazing time, don’t we?

    • Belief is both subjective and objective. It’s subjective when you believe it. It’s objective when someone else doesn’t, and . . .their objective is your silence.

    Let’s imagine dialogue between Abraham and God. “Abraham, this is God speaking. I want you to leave everything and go to the land I will show you.” “Where’s that?” “If I told you, you wouldn’t believe me.” “Try me.” “It’s 1500 miles from here in a place called Canaan.” “Never heard of it.” “I know, ...read more
