    What Is A Real Christian?

    With cultural Christianity being the norm in America, nominal faith is what people see most often, and it’s what comes to mind when we tell people we’re a Christian. So, what is a "real" Christian? This message points out five traits.

    I wish to begin our message this morning by sharing a story by Franklin Graham. He tells us, “Some years ago, I was in a cab when I asked the driver about his faith. He replied that he was a Christian, and I asked him how he became one. I’ll never forget his reply: ‘Oh, I was born a Christian’.” ...read more

    Many times you think you know people until you deal with them concerning money.

    The Church Of Casual Christianity

    Flies don’t land on a hot stove. A cold church is a dead church, but a hot church is alive.

    What does it mean to be a Church of Casual Christianity? How does a church become casual? Is it speaking of the church building or the church body? Or does it refer to the church members, the individual Christians? Look at the churches depicted in Revelation 2 & 3. • Ephesus – Revelation ...read more

    The first chapter of Second Peter provides guidance for Christian growth. The first half of the chapter discusses character qualities for Christians to develop in life.

    First Peter was written to comfort and support believers amidst misery and mistreatment, which was an outer attack. This epistle was composed to caution against an inside assault, lack of concern and sin. Here Peter gives the antitoxin for dormancy and foolishness in the Christian life. These two ...read more

    Legal Counsel For Christians Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Aug 4, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,044 views

    Jesus provides counsel on domestic disputes, sex crimes, adultery and divorce; and He even says something that can be applied to swearing on the Bible in a court of law. Jesus, being part of the court of heaven, knows about legal matters!

    I have entitled our message for this morning, “Legal Counsel for Christians.” You may not realize it, but the Bible is full of courtroom imagery. The most noteworthy example is the great white throne of judgement seen in the book of Revelation (20:11-15). Did you know that Jesus will be there ...read more
