    I don't know how to explain what happened. But remember this story, because I have another one that I want to tell you at the end of this message.

    The Danger Of A Faith That Draws Back

    Contributed by Stephen E. Trail on Mar 1, 2022
     | 3,284 views

    The danger of backsliding and the even greater risk of apostasy.

    The Danger of a Faith That Draws Back Hebrews 10:23-39 23 Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;) 24 And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works: 25 Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the ...read more

    Fear Of Almighty God

     | 2,401 views

    In this sermon, I want to talk to you about something that is missing in almost every church.

    WHAT IS THAT? I am talking about the FEAR OF GOD. We live in a world today that seems to have lost all fear of God. (1) THE SINNERS DO NOT FEAR GOD You will find among the young and the old, that sinners do not fear God. This is why: • The SCHOOLS of this nation are in the mess they are in • ...read more

    John Series Part 15 Revelation 6: Man’s Condemnation, John 3:18–21 Series

    Contributed by Rodney Fry on Mar 6, 2022
     | 2,084 views

    God sent His Son into the world to save the world, but this does not mean that everyone is automatically saved. In fact, some are condemned and doomed. Jesus reveals man’s condemnation.

    John Series PART 15 Revelation 6: Man’s Condemnation, 3:18–21 (3:18–21) Introduction: God sent His Son into the world to save the world, but this does not mean that everyone is automatically saved. In fact, some are condemned and doomed. Jesus reveals man’s condemnation. 1. Who ...read more

    In his opening, Paul directed the Corinthians' attention to WHO they are and WHAT they have received in Christ.

    Dn Michael gave us the backdrop and overview of 1 Corinthians last Sunday. • Corinth was a prosperous and bustling city because of its strategic location as a seaport situated at the crossroads of commerce and trade. • It was a melting pot of many different cultures and the city then was known for ...read more

    Having Confidence When We Are Fearful

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Mar 7, 2022
     | 1,846 views

    What do we do when the ugly little head of fear begins to creep into our lives? What is it that causes you fear? An example of Abram's life shows us what we should do and what we shouldn't do.

    Fear. Whether we want to admit it or not, fear is something that we have to wrestle with. The fear of standing on the ladder that's two stories high. Fear of a spider crawling on your skin. The fear of snakes. The fear of standing on a stage with the spotlight beaming on you. The fear of ...read more

    Grace From Galatians (12 Of 19)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 8, 2022
     | 2,033 views

    This is Paul’s fourth appeal to try to get them to come to their senses.

    As we have seen, Paul does not understand why these backsliding Galatian Christians wanted to return to the bondage of the law. In this appeal, he seems to appeal to their common sense, something that many in this country seem to have lost. Illus: I saw this sad announcement and thought about ...read more

    Mercy Instead Of Sacrifice

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 11, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 3,493 views

    The Pharisees criticized Jesus for eating with tax collectors. They thought they were better than Matthew, as they went around acting holy. Outward show doesn’t determine a person’s relationship with God. It's about the heart.

    This morning I am going to touch on the subject of “hypocrisy.” It’s difficult to preach on this subject matter because none of us are without some form of hypocrisy in our life. Jesus told us not to point out the splinter in our brother’s eye until we have removed the log in our own eye (Matthew ...read more

    Love Those Who Are Lost

    Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Mar 11, 2022
     | 1,896 views

    Romans chapter eight ends with the amazing claim that nothing can separate us from the love of Christ. But before the apostle Paul moves on with what is considered the “practical application” portion of his letter, he first needs to address his concern for those outside of Christ.

    Alba 3-6-2022 LOVE THOSE WHO ARE LOST Romans 9:1-5 Ray Stedman, who was a minister in California, once asked a congregation why they had dismissed their preacher. “Well”, they said, “he kept telling us we were all going to hell.” Steadman asked, “What does the new preacher say?” The congregation ...read more

    Looking For The Escape Clause?...the Good Samaritan

    Contributed by John Gaston on Mar 12, 2022
     | 3,100 views

    The story of the Good Samaritan was Jesus' way of blasting our excuses for trying to get out of obeying God to demonstrate compassion for the needy. An escape clause is a device in a contract to elude responsibility!

    LOOKING FOR THE ESCAPE CLAUSE?...The Good Samaritan Luke 10:25-37 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: 3 LAWYER JOKES 1. JOKE 1: A lawyer died and went to Heaven. “There must be some mistake,” the lawyer argued. “I’m too young to die. I’m only 55.” “Fifty-five?” said Saint Peter. “No, according to our ...read more

    Worship Jesus Only

    based on 1 rating
     | 3,428 views

    When the opinion of men supersedes the opinion of God, we are focusing too much on people; and there are believers who unknowingly worship people. But the only one whom we should be seeking to please and worship is Jesus.

    John once shared the account of some people who had denied Christ for fear of what the Pharisees would think. In John 12:42-43, He said, “Many believed in Him, but because of the Pharisees they did not confess Him, lest they should be put out of the synagogue; for they loved the praise of men more ...read more

    As Christians we are servants of Christ. We were saved from sin, but we are saved and given purpose. We are called to serve and are stewards with all He has entrusted to us. This message was given on Stewardship Sunday, the day we approve our budget the the following year.
