    Now I know they didn't have church buildings then, but as you read this chapter you can almost visualize yourself walking in through the open door of the church at Rome, wandering down the aisle and meeting the various members.

    Alba 7-31-2022 MORE THAN JUST GREETINGS Romans 16:1-16 Jeff Strite, minister with the Church of Christ at Logansport in Logansport, Indiana tells a story about how the way we greet one another makes a difference.

    August 20, 2022 Israel had been in the desert for nearly 40 years. There had been ups, but mostly there had been downs, due to the people’s persistent whining and rebellion.

    We’ve talked a great deal about stewardship, and using our gifts for God. That’s vital to understand. Your giftings are entrusted to you by God. And you must make use of them for his glory.

    "Once, a man said, "If I had some extra money, I'd give it to God, but I have just enough to support myself and my family." And the same man said, "If I had some extra time, I'd give it to God, but every minute is taken up with my job, my family, my clubs, and what have ...read more

     | 2,824 views

    The Lord Jesus Christ is The True Shepherd of the sheep. He came as The Seeking Shepherd who would die for the sins of the world. Each one He seeks and saves, He then adds that one to His sheepfold where he cares for them all and leads them in love.

    “I AM THE GOOD SHEPHERD” – HE LAID DOWN HIS LIFE - John 10 – PART 1 [A]. OPENING UP THE SUBJECT It would be a most interesting exercise to put 10 theologians together and ask them, “Which is the most important of the I AMs found in the Gospel of John?” What would your answer be? One would ...read more

    The first organization God ordained, even before the church, was that of marriage and the family. All Scripture references are from the NASB.

    Just what is it that we believe? Could you tell someone what it is you believe? In past messages we have discussed our believe in God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. We have talked about how we need salvation and cannot save ourselves and that Jesus is the only way. We believe ...read more

    Many people have tried to run from God. Even in the Bible, different folks tried to escape God's will or His presence. In this sermon, we take a look at Jonah and how he tried to escape God's will. As we learn through looking at Jonah and others, you can't run from God.

    Introduction I recently had an encounter with a man who wanted to run away from all his troubles. He was in jail for drug use and didn’t get along with his parents because of how he acted when he was intoxicated. He told me, “Jon, when I get out of jail, I’m going to go to Atlanta and get a fresh ...read more

    A mirror is a very revealing thing. It generally shows whatever is in front of it . . .freckles, wrinkles, warts, dirt and etc...

    We hear a lot of these television preachers give the impression that God comes down at least twice a day and visits and talks to them in an audible voice about the things He wants them to do.

    I find it hard to believe what many of these television preachers preach and teach most of the time. Much of it is UNSCRIPTURAL AND RIDICULOUS! They make the Lord’s work look bad! When one comes up with a new idea for making more money, the others seem to follow. I am sure there must be some good ...read more
