    The book of Acts is one of the most exciting books of the Bible.

    For example, in Acts 16 we see Paul and Barnabas placed in prison. Notice, in verses 20b - 21, what they were charged with - "...These men, being Jews, do exceedingly trouble our city, and teach customs, which are not lawful for us to receive, neither to observe, being Romans." Paul and ...read more

    Issachar And Zebulun Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Apr 3, 2022
     | 3,846 views

    The sages read Genesis 49:13-15 very differently. They glorified Issachar while explaining away Zebulun's calm superiority in a way that does not denigrate Issachar. Zebulun was an aggressive tribe on the ascendancy, but Issachar was comparatively weak.

    Issachar and Zebulun Among Jacob's sons from Leah, Issachar was the fifth and Zebulun the sixth (Genesis 30:18-20). 18Then Leah said, "God has given me my wages because I gave my maid to my husband." So she named him Issachar. 19Leah conceived again and bore a sixth son to Jacob. ...read more

    God blesses Jacob, "Let peoples serve you, and nations bow down to you. Be Lord over your brothers and may your mother's sons bow down to you. Cursed be everyone who curses you and blessed be everyone who blesses you!"

    Jacob and Esau Later, given the name Israel, Jacob is regarded as a patriarch of the Israelites and is an important figure in Abrahamic religions, such as Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. He had 13 children, 12 boys, one girl, Dinah. The boys became the heads of the 12 tribes of Israel. Biblical ...read more

    The Reluctant Prophet 1 Of 2

    In Exodus, chapter 3, when God called Moses to do something great for Him, how did Moses respond? He was very reluctant!

    Look at Exodus 3:1-9, we read, “Now Moses kept the flock of Jethro his father in law, the priest of Midian: and he led the flock to the backside of the desert, and came to the mountain of God, even to Horeb. And the angel of the LORD appeared unto him in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bush: ...read more

    What A Friend We Have In Jesus

     | 3,245 views

    There are a number of things that a preacher might hear after he preaches a sermon. Some of these things are pleasant and some of them are not.

    Some will say: • "I am going to be late for lunch because you preached so long." • "You must not have had much time to prepare that sermon." • "My former pastor preached a much better sermon from that text." • "You acted like you weren't feeling well while you ...read more

    On Palm Sunday we are invited to echo the wonderful praises of God!

    Echoes of Praise! I. INTRODUCTION: Thinkers and philosophers have always speculated about what the world is made of. It has been the stuff of discussions since the Greeks postulated that all that we can see is made of earth, air, fire, and water, and even those things in the material world which ...read more

    I want you to pay very close attention today as we examine this scriptural passage that we will be reading from.

    We hope these exciting things we are going to be reading about will take place during our life time, but if not during our life time, we know they will take place in the life of some Believers who will be living on the earth.

    Spending time with Jesus everyday gives us the spiritual energy to face anything our day may throw at us.

    I Am Holy Series

    Contributed by Gordon Pike on Apr 18, 2021
     | 4,194 views

    In that moment, when Jesus paid the penalty for our sin, something wonderful happened. He came down from the cross, took all His holiness and wove it into a suit of clothes and gave it to you and me. We walk around today wearing the holiness of Jesus Christ.

    Pastor and author John MacArthur remembers a conversation that he once had with a well-known charismatic pastor who told MacArthur that Jesus sometimes comes into his bathroom while he’s shaving in the morning and puts his arms around him and they talk together. I love MacArthur’s incredulous ...read more

    Today we continue our account with the aftermath. How did the betrayal effect Judas? How did things turn out for him? Spoiler alert-not very well.

    JUDAS THE BETRAYER (part two) Last week we saw that Judas actually started out well. He was chosen to be an apostle, he was chosen to be the treasurer and he was sent out by Jesus with the others to heal people and drive out evil spirits. But somewhere along the way, he changed and allowed Satan ...read more

    The “tithe” is not our money; it’s God’s. When we refuse to trust the church in handling the tithe, and feel that we know the best use for it, then this is contempt for God and His Spirit, and we are treading on dangerous ground!

    I remember when my wife and I first got married that she would tell me stories about the Christian camp she attended as a child, because camp meant so much to her growing up. One of the songs they sang at camp was called, “God Loves a Cheerful Giver,” which was about Ananias and Sapphira; and I ...read more

    Jesus tells us not to judge: 1. Because of the boomerang effect (vs. 1-2). 2. Because of our spiritual blindness (vs. 3-5). 3. Because God wants us to bless other people (vs. 5-6).

    God has made us with the ability to feel the emotions of jealousy and envy to enrich our lives, but those emotions can easily lead us into sin. We can counteract jealousy and envy by cultivating gratitude.
