  • The Written Word Of God Versus Fresh Revelation

    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Aug 16, 2019
    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,099 views

    There are those who believe that the 66 books of the Bible are not enough, so they continuously look for fresh revelation through private prophetic words, dreams, or visions for a more meaningful personal experiential relationship with God.

    I consistently hear from those who want to justify that experiential special/fresh revelation supersedes what is written in the Bible because the “books” of the New Testament were not compiled until after 324 AD. Therefore, because the Disciples in the first century had to rely on hearing the ...read more

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Feb 5, 2018
    based on 1 rating
     | 16,235 views

    Luke's gospel tells us that Mary and Joseph offered the poor person's sacrifice when taking Jesus to the Temple. Why would God have chosen for His Son to be born into a poor family?

    TWO YOUNG PIGEONS: Jesus’ family gave the poor offering. - Luke 2:24. - Leviticus 12:8. - Unless you know the Old Testament background, the mention of dove/pigeon offering is one that we would pass right over. We have no frame of reference on what it means. - When we look back in Leviticus, ...read more

  • Address Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Mar 3, 2018
     | 4,636 views

    Paul's call to the office of an Apostle had nothing to do with personal merit; he says instead that he is "an apostle by the will of God," and this is what constitutes the ground of the authority he claims in the Corinthian Church.

    Lesson 1.1: Address Scripture 1 Corinthians 1.1-1.3 1 Cor 1:1-3 (KJV) 1 Paul, called to be an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Sosthenes our brother, 2 Unto the church of God which is at Corinth, to them that are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all ...read more

    This message discusses the change that takes place in a Christian's life once they accept Christ as their personal Savior. We transition from being a part of this world to be living here but not belonging here.

    Changed Scriptures: John 3:3; 18:36; Romans 6:1-11; Colossians 3:1-4 The title of my message this morning is “Changed.” The word change is defined as “to become or make different.” When used in the past tense it means to “have become or been made different.” Before I get into the heart of this ...read more

    In the right set of hands, one kernel of corn could be a fortune for one person and just a small snack for another. Whenever you take a seed and plant it, given the correct conditions it will grow.

    Recently, I knew a Local man who just up and packed up and moved 1800 miles across the country, because he was tired of the location and didn't like it any longer. Only to discover, that when he had reached his new location he liked it even less than the location that he left and then decided ...read more

     | 8,152 views

    Knowing the Bible for oneself is the only sure way to have confidence in our salvation. The Christian faith is an individual and personal faith. But many trust their faith to the study of others, and in turn are led astray by lies.

    “No Lie is of the Truth” John 8:42-44 Introduction: There are lies being told in our world today. I’ve been lied to, I’m sure you’ve been lied to. Lies aren’t always told by people with evil desires, sometimes they just don’t know the truth, and they say ...read more

    There are two main climates I want to preach on today, the first an atmosphere in our church that is conducive for a move of the Spirit of God, and the second is an atmosphere in our church and our personal lives that is attractive to the lost.

Our message today is about improving the spiritual climate in our lives. There are things that we can do that effect our spiritual climate personally, in ...read more

  • A Kind Of Love Nobody Should Desire Series

     | 5,663 views

    The Bible is replete with warnings concerning greed, covetousness, and materialism. Money itself is not evil, but when a love for money is born in a person’s heart, there is no limit to how low a man can plunge.
