    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Aug 4, 2023

     | 2,764 views

    God has called us to be His sons and daughters, but it is possible that we can live like slaves not understanding our position in Christ. May we be freed from every enslavement so we can enjoy the rights to be the true sons and daughters of God.

    We read in Romans 8:15, For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father. (KJV) There are two kinds of spirits that are mentioned in the verse above, one is the spirit that makes us a slave, and the other the ...read more

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Apr 14, 2025
     | 395 views

    Boasting is a major problem to be overcome but Paul was very clear about his position on it. Only in the cross of Jesus Christ would he boast. We open up this subject of boasting in this message with a good number of scriptures. God forbid that I should boast!

    29 THE BOOK OF GALATIANS – CHAPTER 6:14 - Message 29 – WHAT DID PAUL REALLY BOAST IN? PAUL AND BOASTING EXAMINED.

    Serving Your Way Into Destiny Connections Series

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Mar 11, 2025
     | 645 views

    Service is not a sign of weakness; it is a divine key to greatness. Many people are waiting for divine helpers to locate them, yet they are unwilling to serve. Joseph’s story teaches us that serving in every season of life—whether in the palace or in the prison—positions us for destiny connections.

    SERVING YOUR WAY INTO DESTINY CONNECTIONS By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Genesis 40:6-8 "And Joseph came in unto them in the morning, and looked upon them, and, behold, they were sad. And he asked Pharaoh’s officers that were with him in the ward of his lord’s house, saying, Wherefore ...read more

    If you find yourself thinking that "maybe" the Bible is not correct in some of the things it teaches us as Christians then you need to read this message as you might find yourself in a position where you are correcting God about something He has commanded.

    Autocorrecting God Scripture: Genesis 3:1-6; Genesis 5:1-3; Proverbs 14:12 Good morning, Strangers Rest!

     | 1,166 views

    Jesus pops up to speak in the middle of everyone on a major holiday with seemingly nowhere to go. Why would He risk His life? Why would He place Himself in such a dangerous position? Jesus risks everything to give us a gift that changes everything.

    Have you heard someone say, “I wouldn’t bet the farm on that if I were you?” There are many things in life we CANNOT count on. You CANNOT count on a politician’s promise. You CANNOT count on the weatherman’s forecast. And you cannot count on the pastor when he says, “I’ll be just one more minute.” ...read more

    It was a time that cried out for a good woman of courage, Esther. Est. 4:13-16. Her silence would have been sin – in a responsible position, in a time that needed good people – of conviction and prayer.It was true in her time. It is still true in our time

    ESTHER – “FOR SUCH A TIME AS THIS” INTRODUCTION Text: Est. 4:13-16. 1 You’ve probably heard the adage, "behind every good man is a good woman." 2 I prefer, "Behind every good man is a surprised mother-in-law." 3.

    Forsaken? Or Exalted?

    based on 76 ratings
     | 8,858 views

    When Jesus said, "My God, My God, why have you forsaken me?" was he asking a question about God’s presence? Or is it possible that he was making a proclamation? This sermon takes the position that Jesus was making a statement rather than asking a questi

    “Forsaken? Or Exalted?” Matthew 27:46 (Read Matthew 27:46) Traditional Interpretation: at the moment Christ took upon himself the sin of the world, the Father in Heaven could not look upon the Son, and so he turned away, forsaking his Son. 3 Primary reasons for this view: 1. 2 Corinthians 5:21 ...read more

    If anyone had ever had a reason to be afraid and discouraged it would have been Paul as we find him here in a Roman jail writing to one of his closest friends. How can we have a positive outlook when we are living in a negative situation?
