This passage tells us we are in a battle against dark, demonic forces all around us. We are living in a time when evil is being glorified as good, and ...read more

    Ninth Sunday After Pentecost

    Contributed by Michael Tkachuk on Aug 10, 2014

     | 4,491 views

    While Jesus was praying on the mountain, the disciples were in a boat trying to cross the sea. Jesus approaches the boat walking on water. They thought it was a ghost and it frightened them until Jesus spoke up.

    Ninth Sunday after Pentecost Our Gospel reading this morning talks about the apostles’ struggle with fear as a raging storm tosses their boat like a cork on the churning sea. Now fear could be a good thing or it can be a bad thing. It can cripple us or it can be a lifesaver. Someone once ...read more

     | 861 views

    Are we really seeking God's truth or defending our theologies and traditions?

    The irony is that the most avid defenders of His sovereignty deny Him the right to create a plan of salvation that allows man free will to accept or reject His plan thus opposing His sovereignty. The most avid defenders of free will deny God the right to keep that which He saved until the end ...read more

    The Christian's Relationship With Worldly Society

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Jul 12, 2025
     | 154 views

    The Christian's relationship with worldly society is one of separation without isolation. We are to be different in mindset, lifestyle, and values while remaining actively involved in influencing the world for Christ.

    God “desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth” (1 Timothy 2:4).

    1. Christians believe salvation is by faith alone and apart from works. Good works without faith in God will not save (Eph. 2:8-9). 2. Christians also believe faith that fails to produce good works is dead. Faith in God without good works will not save (James 2:14-26). 3. Paul, the great champion ...read more
