    Why did Adam and Eve fall? Was it because they both took a bite of the forbidden fruit? Of course they did. All it took was a bite for them to lose their mostly unrestricted place in the Garden of Eden. The fruit of tree of the knowledge of good and evil was the restricted part of the garden.

    YOU CAN’T UNSCRAMBLE AN EGG Text: Genesis 2: 15 - 17 and 3: 1 - 6 Genesis 2:15-17  The LORD God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to till it and keep it.  (16)  And the LORD God commanded the man, "You may freely eat of every tree of the garden; ...read more

    The last of three parables in Matthew following Jesus’ teaching on end times. Perhaps what is most important is to realize that what we don’t do could be more important than what we do as followers of Jesus.

    The Parables of Jesus Goats and Sheep Matthew 25:31-46 September 13, 2009 This week we are going to look at the last parable of three that deals with the end times or judgment when Jesus comes again.

    While judgment, salvation, discipleship, and the kingdom are elements of this story, this parable is about wealth. Jesus is concerned with the neglect of the poor because people are selfish with their wealth.

    The Parables of Jesus The Rich Man and Lazarus Luke 16:19-31 July 12, 2009 Now we turn to the parable of the rich man and Lazarus. It is true that this is parable about discipleship as well as the future kingdom. But it is a parable specifically about money. How discipleship impacts our use of our ...read more

    There are always those who would change the gospel. This is to be expected since the gospel is a judgment against the world system which refuses to recognize God, His condemnation of sin & His redemptive purpose for all men.

    Here are some practical suggestions for becoming a saint.

    What does it mean to be a saint? And why are we celebrating each year the Solemnity of All Saints? One simple reason–God wants us to be happy. God wants us, therefore, to be saints ourselves.

    People who believe that the whole earth & every thing in it belongs to their Lord (Ps. 24:1) readily recognize that the resources of their own lives, which, no matter how hard they toiled and how judiciously they spent, were utterly dependent on God's gra

    Jesus Rejected By His Own People The Jews

    However, we must ask the question, “Why do people not believe in Jesus as the Messiah and personal Saviour” particularly when they know the facts and choose not to believe? I hope the gospel message this morning helps to answer that question.
