    Cohabitation Series

    Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Mar 1, 2021
     | 3,210 views

    This is the second message in the series that looks at what Christians say about issues and then compares them to what God says about them in scripture.

    Would you please open your bibles to John 5:30? Jesus says “I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge, and my judgment is just because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me.” Now turn to Ephesians 5:1. Paul writes “Be ye therefore followers of God, as ...read more

    What Do You Do When The Lord Makes You Uncomfortable?

    Contributed by Jessie Manuel on Aug 14, 2025
     | 556 views

    Jesus is going to show us in Luke 12:49-56 that this divine discomfort is not a bug in the system of faith—it's a feature. It's not something to avoid—it's something to embrace.

    There's a question that every serious believer must eventually face: What do you do when the Lord makes you uncomfortable? I'm not talking about the discomfort of difficult circumstances or trials that come from living in a fallen world. I'm talking about that deep, internal stirring ...read more

    Whatever the answer, it’s fine. Sometimes we peek through the keyhole and if we don’t like what we see we don’t open the door.

    The Power Of Obedience Series

    Contributed by Apostle Dr. Belinda V. Broadnax on Oct 24, 2024
     | 2,377 views

    This sermon highlights the transformative power of obedience to God's voice. It explores how obedience deepens our relationship with God, brings blessings, and unlocks the fullness of His purpose in our lives.

    There’s a significant difference between hearing God's voice and obeying it. Many believers listen to God’s voice, but far fewer follow through with obedience. James 1:22 offers us a stark reminder: "But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves." The ...read more

    Sermon # 29 - The Power Of Corporate Prayer Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Jun 20, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 744 views

    Something happens when people gather together to pray. The early church experienced this in a mighty way and they witnessed astounding miracles because they prayed together. Only when families and churches pray together will we be able to see a revival in these last days.

    For our meditation I have chosen Act 4:31,“And when they had prayed, the place in which they were assembled was shaken; and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and they spoke the Word of God with boldness.” (AFV) It is a fact that whenever we as a church gather and pray together, there will ...read more

    God's Tender Mercies

    Contributed by Michael Stark on May 29, 2008
     | 5,897 views

    God does discipline His children who approach the Lord’s Table with unholy attitudes. This is does as an act of love. If we were properly evaluating ourselves, we would not be judged.

    1 CORINTHIANS 11:31, 32 GOD’S TENDER MERCIES “If we judged ourselves truly, we would not be judged. When we are judged by the Lord, we are disciplined so that we may not be condemned along with the world.” No doubt the title of the message appears strange to some people. How can discipline be ...read more

    Can A Christian Divorce?

    Contributed by Michael Stark on May 23, 2010
    based on 5 ratings
     | 6,488 views

    Christians are taught of the necessity of honouring marriage. However, much of contemporary practise among churches reflects more of the world than of the will of Christ.

    MATTHEW 19:3-12 CAN A CHRISTIAN DIVORCE? “Pharisees came up to him and tested him by asking, ‘Is it lawful to divorce one’s wife for any cause?’ He answered, ‘Have you not read that he who created them from the beginning made them male and female, and said, “Therefore a man shall leave his ...read more

    God holds Christians responsible to ensure that they are prepared to worship before they approach His Table. We prepare through sharing our lives with our fellow believers.

    1 CORINTHIANS 11:27 WHATEVER WERE YOU THINKING? “Whoever, therefore, eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty concerning the body and blood of the Lord.” “Whatever was he thinking?” That is the question on the minds of many people who read of the fall of ...read more

    An examination of what the Lord’s Prayer is and three invitations we find from the Lord’s prayer.

    The Protestant Reformer Martin Luther once said, “Just as the business of the tailor is making clothes and the business of the cobbler is making shoes, so the business of the Christian is praying.” If that’s true, I have a question for us this morning: How’s business?
