    Heaven Is A Party Series

    Contributed by Robert Leroe on Jun 24, 2013
     | 6,734 views

    Heaven is party-central, and the party starts now, but doesn't get into full gear till we get to Heaven, or when Jesus returns--whichever comes first.

    When Biblical writers speak of Heaven, they often use figurative language. I suspect the reason is that they’re trying to express heavenly realities with the limitations of human language. Trying to describe Heaven to us is like trying to describe this world to an unborn child. And so ...read more

    Putting Faith To The Test

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Jun 3, 2016
     | 9,411 views

    Are you willing to go where God sends you and speak and act in his name? It all boils down to a matter of trust.

    Have you ever had an occasion where you thought that your faith was being tested, especially in unusual circumstances? If so, you’re not alone. Sometimes God uses unusual circumstances to test a person’s faith. For example, in 1 Kings 17:8-24 he told Elijah to go to an unlikely ...read more

    The Eighth And Ninth Beatitudes Series

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Mar 26, 2022
     | 4,534 views

    Like it or not, being persecuted is in Jesus' list of the characteristics of the Christian. If we follow Jesus, it's inevitable that we'll be persecuted. But the persecution proves the genuiness of our faith. And it leads to great reward.

    Jesus starts the Sermon on the Mount with nine Beatitudes – sayings that start ‘Blessed are’. Jesus wants us to be blessed – meaning, happy or fortunate. In the Beatitudes, Jesus presents us with the key characteristics of the Christian. Some people have said they’re the blueprint of the ...read more

    We look at the horrible policies from Satan, the murderer from the beginning, in abortion, and the evil policies of Green Environmentalists. Genesis is overthrown and socialism rules. Consideration is given to the crocodile and flying fox. All of Genesis 1 is twisted and distorted.

    MAN HAS TWISTED, CONTORTED, INVERTED, AND OPPOSED ALL GOD’S CREATION – PART 4 – GENESIS CHAPTER 1 In this series we have been giving consideration to how atheists and humanists have willfully twisted all that God declared in Genesis chapter 1.

    In the family of God, love is not optional but essential, and when we genuinely love each other as Jesus commanded, we experience unparalleled joy.

    Good morning, family. As we gather here today, I'm reminded of a quote from Pope Francis, "We learn many virtues in our Christian families. Above all, we learn to love, asking nothing in return." Today, we're going to talk about God's incredible love for us and the joy that comes when we, as His ...read more

    How Good Friday Is Good For Us

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Jun 4, 2015
     | 5,427 views

    Jesus sees all our sins, but because he had made the ultimate sacrifice with his blood, we can have forgiveness. Christ is the sin eater who has taken care of all our sins, and that is another reason why Good Friday is good for us.

    What is so good about Good Friday? That is the question many of us probably ask when Good Friday comes around every year. After all, what is good about a day that commemorates Jesus' horrible torture and execution on a Roman cross? Good Friday is a dark day in some respects because it ...read more
