    Are the church house doors open to all or not? Do we, as followers of Christ, welcome everyone or not? Are we going to judge those passing though our doors, especially in time of death and the sorrow that surrounds that? Christ wants us to be includers

    God lit up the night with angels to celebrate Christ’s birthday. We can light up the world when we do the same... but are we wired to do that? (Uses a famous sycronized home light display as the opening and closing of the sermon).

    An Introduction To Romans

    Contributed by Scott Spencer on Aug 22, 2013
     | 5,655 views

    When you open the Bible, do you expect God to speak to you personally? If you truly believe that the Bible is God's word then you should. You see, because God loves His people, He communicates His truth to them.

    Romans An Introduction to Romans Romans 1:7a (Romans 1:7a) It is probably safe to say that there is no consensus in our society concerning God. Ideas concerning God are probably as numerous today as in any time in history. Various theories about God have always been in vogue. There is the ...read more

    Jesus came that we may have an open door to the throne of our Father in Heaven. He is the Way, the Truth and the Life. Now we need not a temple in Jerusalem or Mt. Gerazim. We are his temple and we must worship him in Spirit and in Truth.

    The Way is Given Sunday, March 27, 2016 – Easter The Sabbath was dawning over Israel but there was a sadness that filled the hearts of many on this day. According to the Law of Moses, this was to be a day of rest from their labors and a time of being refreshed and getting prepared for the ...read more

    The Apostle John records for us this killer storm and the riders who will bring it as he witnesses Jesus opening up of the first four seals. In sermon we'll look at the 2nd through 4th seal, which are War, Famine, and Death.

    Today, it appears the Thanksgiving season is open season to make merchandise of the Gospel with the purpose of making money. To use the Thanksgiving season as an prelude to touching the Holy things of God with unholy hands is an insult to the Lord who has given us the blessings we enjoy

    The Beginning Of Wisdom Series

    Contributed by Gordon Pike on Oct 2, 2022
     | 3,620 views

    This is the opening sermon for a series based on The Book of Proverbs. I thought it would be a good idea to start a series based on the preeminent book of wisdom literature by discussing and defining what the book means by "wisdom" starting with the first chapter of The Book of Proverbs.

    [Hold up Bible.] I love this book. You’ve heard me refer to it as “The Owner’s Manual.” It contains stories, history, poetry, adventure, drama. It contains hymns. It contains theology, philosophy, and it contains wisdom. Every book in the Bible is there for a reason. Believe it or not, not ...read more

    Excel In Giving Series

    Contributed by Rev. Dr. Andrew B Natarajan on Sep 3, 2022
     | 1,717 views

    The thump rule for giving to God and to the needy is love to God. This is the secret to prosperity and success. God has left a challenge to all the Tithe payers that he would open the windows of heaven and pour out the overflowing blessings upon them if they are faithful in paying their Tithe.

    Theme: Excel in Giving Text: 2 Corinthians 8:7 Excel in Giving Naturally, we are tempted and more enthusiastic about getting, and retaining than giving.

    God's works are many in the world and of particular beauty. Yet there is also the proclivity of man toward evil. God allows for free will, which opens the doors to almost any possibility. Which explains why the world is so messed up.

    “There are only two kinds of people in the end: those who say to God, "Thy will be done," and those to whom God says, in the end, "Thy will be done." All that are in Hell, choose it. Without that self-choice there could be no Hell. No soul that seriously and constantly desires ...read more
