    An Outline Of Acts 20

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Dec 8, 2023
     | 2,323 views

    Acts 20 has a summary of Paul's ministry in various places after he left Ephesus. His closing message to the elders of Ephesus is a masterpiece of a charge to church leaders anywhere.

    1 Paul’s journeys from Ephesus to Troas Text, Acts 20:1-6, KJV: 1 And after the uproar was ceased, Paul called unto him the disciples, and embraced them, and departed for to go into Macedonia. 2 And when he had gone over those parts, and had given them much exhortation, he came into Greece, 3 And ...read more

    Delusion Feasts Off Lies Like Maggots Feast In Garbage Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Sep 19, 2022
     | 2,426 views

    We live in a world plagued by all manner of delusions - scams, deceptions, lying, but this is just a small light thing on the great delusion that will be on earth in the Tribulation. Two matters considered are the Indian scammers and climate change activism.

    DELUSION FEASTS OFF LIES LIKE MAGGOTS FEAST IN GARBAGE This is an article on Delusion as I read it right now. I want to revisit this important subject of delusion mainly because it grows worse, and like a vortex, is sucking more and more people into it. The end of the Church age is going to see ...read more

    The Gospel Of Might Series

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on May 4, 2022
     | 1,583 views

    The arrest of Jesus puts a spotlight on the "Gospel of Might" versus the "Gospel of Jesus." What are the differences? And how does the backward stumbling that's described there sum it all up?

    THE GOSPEL OF MIGHT: By all outward indications, Jesus is in a losing situation. - John 18:1-11. - Pieces of this outward situation: a. Jesus has a betrayer with inside information. - John 18:2. b. Jesus is in an enclosed area. - John 18:1. - It’s an olive grove and they went “into it,” so ...read more

    You Are The Salt Of The Earth Series

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on May 23, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,546 views

    Jesus calls us to be the salt - the preservative - of the earth. He warns us against losing our sense of mission. Or, considering the Greek, perhaps he is warning us against being pushed off course. But either way, his message is: stick with it.

    Today, after a bit of a break, we’re returning to Jesus’ longest recorded sermon, the Sermon on the Mount. Can you remember how Jesus starts his sermon? What was his first WORD? Jesus’ first word is ‘blessed’. ‘Blessed’ means happy or fortunate. Jesus wants us to be blessed. He is going to ...read more

    Lord Of The Storm

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Mar 11, 2023
     | 4,299 views

    Everyone experiences storms in life. Storms are miserable. They are dangerous. But Jesus wants us to be calm in them. And they provide almost unique opportunities to learn to trust Jesus.

    The story of Jesus and his disciples in a storm on the Sea of Galilee is short. But it has a huge amount to teach us. I’d like to show you a little video clip of an actual storm on Lake Galilee so you can get an idea of what that storm might have been like. [Video clip.] Jesus and his disciples ...read more

    Anger Is A Threat To Self-Control

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Dec 2, 2022
     | 1,518 views

    Anger is dangerous is because it can hinder the fruits of the Spirit (love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control (Galatians 5:22 -23) if it is left unchecked. Paul warns us not to let the sun go down our anger in Ephesians 4:26.

    ANGER IS A THREAT TO SELF-CONTROL Text: Ephesians 4:25-5:2 “A small girl was showing a friend the bathroom scale: "I don't know what it is . . . but my mom and dad use it every day. All I know is, when you stand on it, it makes you really mad!".” (Steve May. ...read more

    We may imagine that we could never resist a lion. But lions will cross our path and Peter tells us to resist them.

    [N.B. Earlier in the service we had a short presentation on Rosa Parks.] Today we’re continuing our series of ‘Great Messages of Encouragement’. We’ve had four talks so far.

     | 3,548 views

    A MISFIT is “a person who’s not like everyone else – they’re different.” We Christians are supposed to be different -- we're supposed to be like Jesus! Jesus turned the world right-side-up because it was upside down. Has He touched you yet?

    The amazing Christmas Truce on the Western Front during WW1.

    Christmas Truce in the trenches in 1914 As we celebrate Christmas, I am reminded of one of the more curious events that happened in the First World War - “The Christmas Truce of 1914”, which on the Western Front.

    The final enemy that Christ will do away with is Death.

    We live in an evil world. The time is growing closer to the time of the end. We discussed this spiritual battle that we are all in, we touched on the enemies we face: We all do battle with the devil, or Satan. The Bible calls him the accuser.

    Some People Can Be Bought

     | 6,300 views

    Sunday after Easter. After the Resurrection, now what? Is possible for someone to witness it all yet be bought off to deny it all?

    There is an unfortunate truth which abounds in our current culture, people would rather believe a lie, a boldface lie, than the truth, especially if the truth is inconvenient or the truth would cost us in any way, whether it would be money, or in our personal perception of freedoms.

    When Jesus reinstated Peter, he expected more from Peter but accepted less.

    Jesus revealed himself to seven of His disciples who were fishing in the Sea of Tiberias more commonly known as the Sea of Galilee. For most of us a remote lake with a special fishing hole is a comforting scene. The kind of place we might expect to see Jesus or feel his presence. The kind of ...read more
