    Suffering For Righteousness

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Feb 26, 2020
    based on 1 rating
     | 9,136 views

    Dealing with trials and adversity are a part of everyone's life - some more than others. We don't enjoy suffering, and yet the Word of God teaches us that we are to rejoice in them and even be happy as we suffer reproach. Peter explains this difficult doctrine in our text.

    Suffering for Righteousness 1 Peter 4: 12-16 Peter had spent considerable time in the preceding verses dealing with Christian character and conduct in the midst of a fallen world. He was well aware of the struggles and persecution many within the church faced. Although they were forced to deal ...read more

    Stewardship (3 Of 4)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 11, 2022
     | 1,301 views

    Again we would like to turn our attention to those passages in the Bible that deal with our being stewards of the money God has blessed us with.

    I would like to remind you that stewardship is taught in both the OLD and the NEW TESTAMENTS. In Matthew 23, Jesus rebuked the scribes and Pharisees for what they were NOT DOING, while recognizing what THEY WERE DOING. He noted that they were careful to tithe of every plant that produced ...read more

    "Our Identity In Christ (I): We Are Humans, Created In God’s Image”

    Contributed by Benjamin Utomo on Jun 2, 2021
     | 11,754 views

    Knowing who we are in Christ is vital. Without it, we can be confused, lost, and have no meaning and purpose in our lives, and therefore, fail to accomplish God's plans for us. This is the first sermon series on "Our Identity in Christ."

    Last week we learned from Romans 12:3 the importance of having a correct understanding of ourselves. Otherwise, we can become arrogant, feel that we are great, smart, strong, and right, when in fact it is not. Or conversely, we can become inferior, not realizing the gifts and abilities that God has ...read more

    We begin our study of The Judgement Seat of Christ, a wonderful event, but at the same time, a daunting one. I want to open up this three Part study to look at as many aspects I feel are relevant. The Bema is for rewards, not condemnation. Please be about the Master’s service!

    THE CHRISTIAN - THE JUDGEMENT SEAT OF CHRIST – PART 1 OF 3 [A].

    God is working to build character in our lives by changing our hearts.

    Last week we started a sermon series on how our character is under construction. Last week, we talked about that there is a battlefield that is happening in our mind. We were challenged to change the way that we think. That it is important to think positively, and in a biblical way. This type of ...read more

    Sermon on the Mount #2

    What we find recorded in verses 3-12 are commonly referred to as "The Beatitudes." Each of the nine "Beatitudes" begin with the word "blessed." The basic meaning of "blessed" is happy. However, happiness in a Biblical sense has a much deeper meaning than what we tend to give the word in our ...read more
