    The Only Thing That Matters Series

    Contributed by Robert Leroe on Jul 6, 2014
     | 5,511 views

    If we try to be justified by keeping the Law, we’ve abandoned grace as our means of salvation. And having been set free, liberated by Christ, what will we do with our freedom? Jesus grants us an opportunity to live and love like never before!

    Introduction: According to news reports, criminal gangs have tried to infiltrate the ranks of Scotland's police force, to obtain information and undermine law enforcement. You can just imagine the awful consequences. Paul was also dealing with infiltrators--in the church--people who insisted ...read more

    Over the next few days, Jesus taught in the temple daily and lodged in Bethany. The religious leaders looked for an opportunity to kill Him and tried to trap Him with questions. Jesus rebuked them publicly. He spoke parables and talking to his disciples about the end times.

    When Men Say No, God Says Yes

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on May 30, 2025
     | 927 views

    Man may shut doors, deny opportunities, or declare failure over your life. But those are not the final words. When God says yes, it means acceptance, restoration, honour, favour, and fulfilment. His yes overrides every “no” spoken over your destiny.

    WHEN MEN SAY NO, GOD SAYS YES By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Isaiah 55:8-11 Supporting Texts: Romans 8:31, Numbers 23:19, Psalm 118:6, Acts 5:29, Genesis 50:20 INTRODUCTION: Life often presents us with limitations and disappointments from people.

    Last week we presented thoughts on making the most of our opportunities, redeeming the time because it is our purpose to be imitators of God in these uncertain times. Perhaps the greatest obstacle in redeeming our time for God is found in the realm of mind control. Who controls your mind?

    As we navigate through difficult seasons, let us remember that faith is not the absence of doubt but the perseverance through it. Trust in God's goodness, rely on your community, and keep your eyes on His miracles, for in every challenge lies the opportunity for profound growth.

    Lord, Teach Us To Pray Series

     | 3,500 views

    The disciples spent an amazing amount of time with Jesus and would have had many opportunities for them to ask him to teach them something. And of all the amazing things they could have asked Jesus to teach them, only one thing is recorded: “Lord, teach us to pray” (Luke 11:1).

    Imagine with me for a moment that you’re one of Jesus’ disciples. You’ve been following him around for a little while now and you’ve seen him do some pretty incredible things…you’ve seen him heal crippled people, you’ve seen him cast out demons, you even saw him speak life into a dead guy. You’ve ...read more

    Dealing with fellow Christians who have fallen into sin is difficult. In this message we look at the aspects Paul gives us for restoration of a fallen brother. What is a spiritual man who draws alongside to help here, and why are some so judgemental? Falling into sin, caught out and overtaken.

    21. THE BOOK OF GALATIANS – CHAPTER 6:1 - MESSAGE 21 – THE RESPONSIBILITY IN YOUR HIGH CALLING: A FALLEN CHRISTIAN We begin the last chapter of Galatians and there is much in it.

    When it comes to understanding God, logic is important - but when we use human standards of logic we can miss God completely. Find out what illogical ideas people have about God. This study also explains ways to tell why you believe what you believe.
