    God's Grace And Our Faith

    Contributed by David Hersey on Mar 26, 2015
     | 5,534 views

    Grace is God's role in His plan for man. Faith is Man's responsibility. This lesson examines how each of these roles function in man's redemption, salvation and relationship with God.

    God's Grace and Our Faith As I travel across this nation working in various places, I meet a lot of people who claim Jesus Christ as their savior and when you engage them in conversation about their beliefs, they have this notion that grace and faith are the tickets to heaven and in a sense they ...read more

    Qualifying Sin

     | 3,188 views

    It is very simple, when we fail to obey everything Jesus taught we are sinning; when we continue to sin we are living a sinful lifestyle; when we live a sinful lifestyle we are lost and going to hell.

    QUALIFYING SIN Blinded By Ignorance People do not seem to enjoy hearing sermons about sin; perhaps that is why we seldom take the time to really preach on the definition of sin. We leave people with an unclear perspective on sin in their lives. As a result, people consider sinning to be ...read more

    In this lesson, we study what the Bible has to say about borrowing and saving.

    Introduction: A. Before going to Europe on business, a man drove his Rolls-Royce to a downtown NY City bank and went in to ask for an immediate loan of $5 thousand. 1. The loan officer was quite taken aback, and asked what collateral he could offer. 2. “Well, here are the keys to my ...read more

    Is Physical Healing Guaranteed/Provided For In The Atonement?

    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Nov 14, 2017
    based on 6 ratings
     | 95,071 views

    A detailed look at the Atonement in relation to physical healing.

    The Bible makes it abundantly clear that God wants to heal His people and to prosper them in health. He said, "I am the LORD, who heals you" (Exodus 15:26 KJV). He did this through the atoning sacrifice of Jesus shedding His blood on the Cross. During His ministry on earth Jesus healed ...read more

    Labeling Jesus Series

    Contributed by David Owens on May 1, 2023
     | 2,818 views

    In this section, Mark sandwiched an incident with Jesus' family and an incident with the Jewish religious leaders to show the judgments people were making about Jesus. In the end, Jesus can only be one of three possibilities: Lord, liar or lunatic.

    A. You’ve heard the old joke: “You can call me anything you want, just don’t call me late for dinner.” 1. Have you ever had someone call you a name that hurt you? We all have, right? 2. Some people call us names to deliberately hurt us, but others sometimes call us names in jest, and yet those ...read more

    When leadership hurts a congregation there has to be a way for the people of God to heal.

    Video Presentation https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OvHs2i4S92k When leadership oversteps their bounds there is a compounded effect upon the lives of the people they once served.

    Mustard Seed-Sized Faith 10/05/25 PRO Sermon

    based on 3 ratings
     | 387 views

    Trusting Jesus with even the smallest faith leads to powerful results, as God values humble obedience over impressive displays of strength or ability.

    If you’ve ever sat at a kitchen table with a bill you can’t pay, a diagnosis you can’t fix, or a relationship you can’t untangle, you’ve likely whispered the disciples’ prayer: "Lord, increase our faith." It’s a simple sentence with a grand ache. We know the feeling of being stretched thin, of ...read more

    New Testament Legalism Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 3,164 views

    Message expounds Philippians 3:1-7 explaining the problem of Legalism as defined by the New Testament. The ceremonial law in the Old Covenant was fulfilled in Christ and is not required of believers. The moral law is reiterated in the New Covenant.

    We are in a study of Philippians. Our text today is Philippians 3:1-7. Last week we talked from that text about the value of warnings. God warns us because He loves us. Like a loving parent He guides us away from danger into a meaningful life of blessings. To despise God’s warnings is one of the ...read more

    When God’s people are suffering they don’t always know how to pray. Thanks to God’s gracious promise that the Holy Spirit prays on our behalf!

    I have many fond memories of my late grandmother. One of my favorites was the way she always argued about who would pay the bill at the restaurant. It would never fail. I’d invite her out to lunch and we’d have a nice visit together until the waiter brought the bill. It was as if my grandma grew ...read more

    "Are You Dead Yet???"

    Contributed by Michael Walker on Jan 19, 2003
    based on 59 ratings
     | 18,563 views

    Jesus had to die so we could live…we have to die so He can live through us so others can have life!!! Seems painful, but it’s oh so true. The way we think, the way we think it ought to happen and what the Word of God says is completely opposite.

    "ARE YOU DEAD YET???” - John 12:24 - "Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much." I’ll make it plain…Jesus had to die so we could live…we have to die so He can live through us so others can ...read more
