    Questions: Trap Of The Enemies

    Contributed by William R. Nabaza on Jul 19, 2015
     | 2,776 views

    To show that we declare GOD's WORDS even to our enemies.

    I. EXORDIUM: Did you encounter people trapping you with questions? A lot of times. I just stay away. Corruption is a process and does not happen overnight. 1 Corinthians 15:33 Do not be so deceived and misled! Evil companionships (communion, associations) corrupt and deprave good manners and ...read more

    A stark contrast between Mary and Judas sets the stage for the beginning of the of Jesus' ministry.

    THE END IS NIGH: Amid many unanswered questions, everything in this passage makes it clear that Jesus will be gone soon. - John 12:1-11. - Some of the unanswered questions: a. Why anoint six days early? b. Why did no one notice that Judas was stealing? c. How ridiculous is it to think that ...read more

    Let There Be Peace On Earth

    We are not saved by a denomination or a religion but by a Saviour who is Christ the Lord. Jesus demands all of us not part of us when we come to Him.

    Let there be Peace on Earth Many of you probably know this familiar song often heard this time of year; Let there be peace on earth And let it begin with me; Let there be peace on earth, The peace that was meant to be. With God as our Father Brothers all are we, Let me walk with my brother In ...read more

    Saved And Being Saved? Series

     | 5,039 views

    complete salvation with God is a process; justification, sanctification, and glorification!

    We have been noting over and over again even as recent as the last chapter, the disciples ignored the situation when they could not understand Jesus. Finally, in a personal private setting, the disciples asked Jesus for an explanation!! I wonder how Jesus felt here? How do we feel when someone ...read more

    Paul had a unique conversion, yet every coming-to-Christ is a miracle.

    Introduction What was the origin of Paul’s religion? Paul’s been called “that rascal who messed everything up”, the “angry theologian”, and the “inventor of Christianity”. I believe he is none of these things, and I contend that there is a harmony ...read more

    Believers should respond to opposition with love, prayer and a witness for their Savior.

    Responding to Enemy Behavior Matthew 5:43-48 INTRODUCTION A. Lifeguard rescuing a drowning person. 1. Suppose it was your best friend or just a casual acquaintance. 2. We would probably risk our life to save them. 3. But suppose the drowning person was a contemptible person, your enemy. 4. Someone ...read more

    Not unlike other churches within the first century, Thessalonica faced much adversity and opposition. They were relentlessly attacked for their faith in Christ. However, Paul encouraged them to remain steadfast in the faith, standing firmly for the Lord.

    Having Done All, Stand 1 Thessalonians 2: 14-16 It has been a few weeks since we began to study this powerful letter to the Thessalonian church. Our last encounter revealed Paul encouraging the church to be an imitator of Christ rather than a pretender of the faith. He exhorted them to a life ...read more

    This peculiar passage gives us a poignant picture of the need for tenacity and determination in the face of opposition to the message of God.

    THAT'S A SURPRISE: Sometimes God needs His people to be hardheaded. - Ezekiel 3:8-9. - This passage continues the ideas we discussed in the last sermon about God’s messengers. It had a warning from God that the Israelites claimed to be God’s people but they weren’t listening to what God had ...read more

    Second Samuel 2:1-32 shows us what happens when God establishes his kingdom.

    Scripture It has been said that “good things come to those who wait.” Well, whoever coined that saying was not thinking of toddlers! We recently visited our grandsons. Our almost three-year-old grandson wants what he wants now. He has little concept of waiting. David was just a teenager when he ...read more

    If you expect to do great things for God without opposition, you will be greatly disappointed and discouraged.

    1 Corinthians 16:9 For a great door and effectual is opened unto me, and there are many adversaries. 2017 is a great and open door for ministry, The sky is the limit. There are many needs so there is one or two somewhere you can meet whether you are 8 or 88. God is on your side for ministry, When ...read more

    On Thursday, July 8, 2021, the night’s silence was shattered by the overhead noise of at least 2 helicopters in a very quiet neighborhood. These were not police helicopters.

    This is a true story. On Thursday, July 8, 2021, the night’s silence was shattered by the overhead noise of at least 2 helicopters in a very quiet neighborhood. These were not police helicopters.

    Close The Gaps - Circle The Wagons

    Contributed by Val Black on Oct 21, 2019
     | 6,786 views

    God's work never goes forward without opposition from the enemy. In fact, opposition is almost always caused by success and not failure. In building the walls of Jerusalem, Nehemiah faced much opposition but he knew what to do and now we can know also.

    Nehemiah 4:7-23 (NLT) “But when Sanballat and Tobiah and the Arabs, Ammonites, and Ashdodites heard that the work was going ahead and that the gaps in the wall of Jerusalem were being repaired, they were furious. 8  They all made plans to come and fight against Jerusalem and throw us into ...read more

    When God wants to change a community He is more concerned about whether the hearts of His people are ready to be used then with those who don’t know Him yet.

    God’s voice do we really believe He can speak to us and that we can hear Him? It’s funny because people talk about hearing from God all the time, but do we really expect to hear from Him, audibly? Today we are going to look at a passage where the Luke says that the Apostle Paul had a vision where ...read more

    The Minister Of Mayhem Series

    Believers are aware of the adversary we face in this walk of faith. Since the fall of Adam, Satan has sought to hinder and defeat believers. He has power and influence, but like all of creation, Satan must submit to the sovereign power of God.

    The Minister of Mayhem Esther 5: 9-14 Our text today follows Esther’s entrance before the king. She was received of Ahasuerus and promised that her request would be granted. She had invited Ahasuerus and Haman to a small banquet that served as an invitation to a larger banquet the following day – ...read more
