    The failure of our efforts and the glory of Christ's work.

    COME LET US REASON TOGETHER. Isaiah 1:10-18. Isaiah addresses his congregation as “rulers of Sodom” and “people of Gomorrah”, and begins to reason with them (Isaiah 1:10). It is all quite shocking: how dare he expose our comfortable, upright congregation to such strong language? After all, ...read more

    Jesus promises us peace, and His entrance into Jerusalem demonstrates He is the prince of peace. This explores what it means for us to have Jesus’ peace

    Could I get an indication of who here desires conflict, fighting, feeling uneasy? (What no one? I thought there would be one or two) Most people desire peace. Having God’s peace in our hearts is something God wants all of us to have. Listen to Colossians 3:15 Let the peace of Christ rule in ...read more

    You see, it isn’t by our numbers, wealth or strength that gets the job down; it is the power of the Holy Spirit alone, “Not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit,' says the LORD Almighty.”

    Judges 5:6-9 A MOTHER IN ISRAEL May 14, 2023 The book of Judges is a gritty, dirty history book. It is filled with sin, violence, and the judgment of God.

     | 5,262 views

    Here is a sad reality, any one of us, being unprepared to recognize false ideas, might entertain some belief or practice that does not coincide with Jesus teachings! I have seen us lose a few people from this Church over the years and it saddens me.
