    Contributed by Dustin Boden on Aug 17, 2024
     | 1,089 views

    The Beatitudes teach us how to embody the qualities that Jesus values, such as humility, mercy, and purity of heart.

    “Blessed are the Peacemakers” “Becoming a Peacemaker: Reflecting the Son of God” Matthew 5:1–9 ESV 1 Seeing the crowds, he went up on the mountain, and when he sat down, his disciples came to him. 2 And he opened his mouth and taught them, saying: 3 “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for ...read more

    Christian employees are to respect and obey their employers. The apostle issued his command as both 1) a mandate and 2) a motive for submission.

    A report released by UNICEF entitled The State of the World’s Children says millions of children every year end up disappearing. Many, it says, end up forced into work domestic labour. "A vast but unknown number of children are exploited as domestic servants in private homes." The births of many of ...read more

    When adversity strikes in our lives we usually have two questions: "why is this happening to me" and "why don’t the unsaved seem to have any problems"?

    TWO PERPLEXING QUESTIONS TEXT: Job 1:6-22, 2:1-10 & Psalm 73:1-28 PROPOSITION: We need to trust the Lord in all of life’s circumstances.

    Will Christians Go Through The Tribulation Period? (Ix) Series

    Matthew's prediction of the Abomination of Desolation is compared to Luke's account of the destruction of the temple in 70 AD. Rightly diving this portion of the Olivet Discourse is crucial to understanding end-time prophecy. The focus of this message is Matthew 24:15-31.

    Last week we examined the first part of Jesus’s Olivet Discourse in Matthew 24:1-14. In that portion of the prophecy Jesus told us the conditions that would exist during this current age: deception, wars, pestilence, earthquakes, persecution, etc. In verse 8 He uses the metaphor of labor pains ...read more

    What Is Your True Destiny

    There is a great deal of talk about destiny, yet you may miss your true destiny by failing to be content and seeking for a great position when God wants to make you great in your current position.

    Micah 6:8 He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the LORD require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God? James 1:27 Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to ...read more

    Let’s fast forward in time around 550 years from Daniel’s day. As we leave our time machine, we have left the ancient land of modern-day Iraq because we now find ourselves in Jerusalem. We arrive at the Mount of Olives at night, just outside the skirts of ancient Jerusalem.

    Daniel’s story is in your Bible so you’ll always know hope. Hope in the Christian sense is the confident and certain expectation of future blessings and the confidence that the best is yet to come. We need a hope that a virus cannot touch. We need a hope that a divorce cannot destroy. We need a ...read more

    Endurance is required if we will be courageous in the face of opposition and if we will fulfil the duties Christ assigns.

    “Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness. And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing. “If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask ...read more

    Living In A Very Serious Way -- Holiness Before God

     | 6,106 views

    We have been redeemed in a very serious way -- through the Blood of Jesus -- and thus, out of love for Him, we need to live in a very serious way before Him -- in holiness before God.

    Zechariah 9:9 predicts the First Advent of Christ and specifically his Triumphant Entry on the first Palm Sunday. Message expounds this promise and its fulfillment in the New Testament.

    Intro Our previous study concluded in Zechariah 9:8 with God supernaturally protecting Jerusalem from a brutal attack by Alexander the Great. Now in verse 9 Zechariah declares the coming of Messiah and the manner in which he will come. His manner contrasts dramatically with that of Alexander. Like ...read more

    Sermon # 5 - How Can We Be Saved? Series

     | 1,800 views

    Do you want to be saved and be sure that eternal life is yours? As we look at the Parable of the Good Samaritan in different light, we will receive an answer to that question.

    We read in Acts 2:47, “every day the Lord was adding to their number those being saved.” (TLV) As we study the latter part of Acts 2:47 we take special note of the fact “that every day the Lord was adding to their numbers those being saved.” Firstly it was the Lord Himself who adding the people ...read more

    Sermon # 31 - The Purpose Of The Church Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Jun 26, 2025
     | 668 views

    The Parable of the Good Samaritan is familiar to all of us. However, if we study this from a deeper spiritual angle, we will understand God’s greater plan for us as individuals who believe in Him and His purpose for the church at large.

    As we continue our study on the church, for today’s meditation we will study this portion of scripture found in the Gospel of Luke chapter 10. We read in Luke 10:30-35, “To answer this question, Jesus said, “A man was going down the road from Jerusalem to Jericho. Some robbers surrounded him, tore ...read more

     | 1,273 views

    Paul exposes the guilty hypocrite, examines the kindness of God, then speaks of the wrath of God against sin stored up on account. In these last days, men’s hearts are like concrete reinforced with tungsten steel. They do not want to repent.

    Sermon # 38 - The Grace And Justice Of God Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Jan 3, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 464 views

    Jonah desired that God should punish the people of Nineveh and was angry when God relented. There are two sides of God, His grace and His justice that go hand in hand. A proper understanding will help us set aside our sinful ways and to stay in the will of God.

    For today’s meditation we will look at Jonah 4:2, “And he prayed to the LORD and said, “O LORD, is not this what I said when I was yet in my country? That is why I made haste to flee to Tarshish; for I knew that you are a gracious God and merciful, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love, and ...read more

    As believers, our physical bodies are not merely vessels for worldly activities, but temples of the Holy Spirit. The way we treat our bodies reflects our reverence for God, who created them.
