Jesus Is Lord Series

Contributed by Matthew Kratz on Oct 14, 2017

The fact that Jesus is Lord is seen through: 1)The Antithesis of God’s Righteousness (Romans 10:4–5), 2) The Availability of God’s Righteousness (Romans 10:6–8), 3) The Acquisition of God’s Righteousness (Romans 10:9–10)

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Nov 1, 2017

During His first visit, the people of Decapolis desired Jesus to depart from them. When He returned, they were glad to see Him, and desired healing. They declared: He has done all things well. No doubt our Lord does all things well.

Jesus tells us that sin is universal and destructive.

There was a difference in the teaching of Jesus and that of the religious leaders.

A Life Changing Touch Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Mar 15, 2017

Leprosy was a dreaded disease, that led to a slow and painful death apart from divine healing. Jesus touched a leper, bringing healing and hope to his life. Leprosy pictures sin, and the saved have experienced such a touch from the Lord.

A Life Changing Touch Mark 1: 40-45 Today we read of one of the greatest miracles Jesus performed while here on earth. Leprosy was a dreaded disease without a known cure. Apart from a divine touch of God, those who contracted the disease faced a slow and painful death. There is only one other ...read more

Eyes Of Faith, Not Sight Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Mar 26, 2017

Elisha and his servant were surrounded by the Syrian army. The servant was fearful, seeing only the enemy. Elisha was confident, seeing the host of God about them. We tend to see only the adversity, but fail to see God. He is able to meet our needs.

Eyes of Faith, not Sight 2 Kings 6: 15-20 During this time Israel faced numerous attacks from the Syrians. Each time Syria’s king planned an attack, the Lord gave Elisha insight to their plans and he was able to warn Israel. Knowing someone was sharing their plans with the Israelites, the king ...read more

We have a choice. We can stay in our sin, or can allow Jesus to make us better!

During the three and a half years in Ministry, Jesus gave thirty parables, and He performed 33 miracles! Understand that Parables are miracles. They are miracles of wisdom. Miracles are parables of teaching! Turn with me in your bibles to John 5:1-14. This is the Word of God and what He says, ...read more

Detained, But Not Defeated Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Apr 9, 2017

With Peter in prison, the church prayed continually for his release. When God answered their prayers, they lacked faith to believe. We can overcome in Christ, but we must possess faith to believe the Lord will provide.

Detained but not Defeated Acts 12: 1-16 Our text deals with an intense time for the early church. God was clearly at work, and the church was growing. Thousands had been saved by the grace of God and the church’s influence was spreading. Such growth created much concern for the religious ...read more

God's Sovereign Choice

Contributed by Douglas Phillips on Apr 20, 2017

God's sovereign choice does not mean that some people are chosen to be saved and others not. None of us deserve Salvation but god has chosen to save.

GOD’S SOVEREIGN CHOICE ROMANS 9:5-18 PAUL IS DEALING IN THIS CHAPTER WITH THE ANXIETY THAT COMES WHEN HIS PEOPLE CHOOSE TO NOT BELIEVE THAT JESUS IS THE MESSIAH. HE ALSO HAS TO DEAL WITH THE FACT THAT GOD IN HIS SOVEREIGNTY, CAN ELECT TO SAVE SOME OF HIS PEOPLE BUT NOT ALL. WE TEND TO CONFUSE ...read more

Hated For Healing Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Apr 26, 2017

The opposition Jesus faced continued as He sought to reveal Himself as the Christ. Sadly they failed to see Him for who He really was. Many today deny and oppose the Gospel, but we must remain committed to share!

Hated for Healing Mark 3: 1-6 Our text today, once again finds Jesus in the synagogue on the Sabbath. While there He performed a great miracle. Unfortunately, this marvelous act of grace is overshadowed by the suspicion and animosity of the Pharisees. Our studies in chapter two revealed the ...read more
