    Sermon on the Mount - Matthew 5

    Matthew 5:13-14 (Jesus Teaches about Salt and Light) If a seasoning has no flavor, it has no value. If Christians make no effort to affect the world around them, they are of little value to God. If we are too much like the world, we are worthless. Christians should not blend in with everyone ...read more

    I read again this week the wonderful story about Ed Kimball, a Sunday school teacher.

    He won a young fellow to the Lord who became the well-known D. L. Moody. After evangelizing America, D. L. Moody started to evangelize England. There in England Frederick B. Meyer heard his message. One of the illustrations that Moody used did not at first stir Brother Meyer. Then one of his ...read more

    There are many misconceptions in life.

    Illus: A magician was performing on a cruise ship. Each night while performing, he would wave his magic stick and “pouf,” something would disappear. However, his parrot kept telling on him saying, • “It's up his sleeve!” • “It's in his pocket!” • “It's in his shoe!” • “It's in ...read more

    Word was brought to Abraham that Lot was being carried away into captivity. Abraham immediately armed about 318 men out of his own household. Each man that he could arm must have had at least one woman and a child. Therefore, Abraham must have had about a thousand people.

     | 1,792 views

    If you hear of sin and do nothing, you are sinning yourself.

    For though we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world does. The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they (our weapons) have divine power to demolish strongholds. We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of ...read more

    Deborah — Judge-Prophetess-Warrior

     | 11,404 views

    The biblical Deborah could have rightly called herself—judge, prophetess, warrior, minstrel, or faithful follower of God—she chose to call herself a mother.

    The Biblical Deborah Deborah's biblical story is one of the few which featured female abilities and leadership. It is a wonderful example of how God can use any person who wants to be His servant. In fact, He even used people like Jonah who resist God at every turn, and John who argued with the ...read more

    Every person in Jesus’ family tree has a story and actually their story plays a part in the first Christmas celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ, God incarnate.

    Matthew 1:1 - 17 (NLT) This is a record of the ancestors of Jesus the Messiah, a descendant of David and of Abraham: Abraham was the father of Isaac. Isaac was the father of Jacob.

    Peace Work Series

     | 1,420 views

    God’s peace is not the same as the world’s peace - even though people filled with God’s peace DO bring peace to the world.

    We human beings are not naturally peacemakers. On the contrary: we’re naturally trouble-makers. A few years ago a group of people tried walking across America on a mission of peace. They couldn't get along and divided into two groups by the time they were half way across. According to the ...read more

    Since we live in a world with constant trouble, we can easily get quite discouraged. We groan under the load of problems and concerns. Yet we hope for something better. Romans 8:18-25 leads us through the journey from groans to glory.

    Alba 2-6-2022 FROM GROANS TO GLORY Romans 8:18-25 We live in a world with constant trouble, yet the apostle Paul writes in Romans 8:18, “For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.” Think about it this ...read more
