    Which Christ Do You Follow? Part 2

    Contributed by James Lee on Nov 10, 2014
     | 3,675 views

    A false teaching had seeped into the Colossian Church, called Gnosticism. This teaching has attacked the very person-hood of Jesus Christ and denied His deity.

    A false teaching had seeped into the Colossian Church, called Gnosticism. This teaching has attacked the very person-hood of Jesus Christ and denied His deity. Today the Gnostic belief is still alive and well, in the form of the New Age movement and other, shall we say, “Created” ...read more

     | 5,011 views

    Favoring one person over another indicates failure to follow Jesus’ example of how to treat people.

    Text: “But if you show partiality, you commit sin, and are convicted by the law as transgressors” (James 2:9). There is a wonderful old story by John Denver about a man invited to a fancy banquet.

    Various Responses To The Generous God

    Contributed by Richard Schwedes on Sep 4, 2009
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,739 views

    God is extremely generous with His word and people respond in various ways.

    How do you respond to the Bible? How do you respond to God’s Word? Our attitudes and expectations affect how we hear and receive God’s Word. They also affect how we use God’s Word for our life. For many years, I saw God’s Word as something that had to be laboured through. As something that only ...read more

    Unforgiveness is the cancer of the soul. It’s a spiritual prison, enslaving the one who refuses to let go, to leave behind, to forgive.

    Intro Unforgiveness is the cancer of the soul. It’s a spiritual prison, enslaving the one who refuses to let go, to leave behind, to forgive. We in stubborn blindness don’t see the good God is doing when He teaches us to forgive. Instead, we see ourselves as losing out in some way, ...read more

    Every Word From The Mouth Of God

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Jan 15, 2020
     | 7,415 views

    The phrase "it is written" is used seventy-two times in the Bible and even four times when Jesus is being tempted by the devil in the wilderness. (The evil one used it once, too.) Why did Jesus and the apostles lean so heavily on Scripture? Is it really so important?

    Every Word From the Mouth of God Please stand as we read our newest memory Scripture together … 1 Peter 4:10 “Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms.” And our memory refresher verse(s) for today is(are) … 2 ...read more
