    Contributed by J.d. Tutell on Apr 5, 2011
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,336 views

    When God says "no" it's because He wants what's best for us.

    Two weeks ago we looked at the story of Jonathan and his armor bearer charging the Philistines. It was one of those times in scripture when God said not just yes but maybe. Why did God say maybe?

If God is for us, who can be against us? 32 He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all—how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things? 33 Who will bring any ...read more

  • The Compassion Of Christ Series

    Contributed by Warren Lamb on Jul 29, 2007
    based on 14 ratings
     | 14,995 views

    Do we believe that we are the hands-feet-arms-mouth-body-wallet-ride-smile-kind word-gentle touch-shelter provider-etc.-etc of Jesus Christ now that He is in heaven? Then how should we respond when we see a need? Mull this over as we continue.

    Peter Ustinov said, “Charity is more common than compassion. Charity is tax-deductible. Compassion is time consuming.” What we are going to talk about today is compassion – godly, Christ-like compassion. Compassion in the midst of our own wants, our own needs, our own limitations. Compassion ...read more

    This message is for believers who still want to live their life according to their desires and old habits. This message helps believers understand Christian growth through eight callings toward achieving holiness through Christ.

    Many Christians ask Christ into their life, often not knowing what they just have done, or what to do afterwards, other than just “go to church”. Eventually, one will become tired of that…they want to experience the “new life” and “faith” that they hear preached about, but don’t know where to ...read more
