    based on 5 ratings

    Christians can stink it up just like anyone else. And being around a Christian who is full of pride, anger, and self-righteousness has a pretty bad stink to it. But there is a way to get rid of that smell. There’s a way out of the tomb.

    August 10, 2008 – Do We Stink? The story of Lazarus. (Jesus is our Life) Smell, just one of our five senses; but a very powerful one. Smells can remind us of many things.

    Paul’s Prescription For Christian Love And Unity

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Dec 5, 2015
     | 7,777 views

    When we focus our attention on Jesus’ humble sacrifice, we see human pride and sin. It’s only when we depend on God that we receive salvation. God calls us to humility each and every day.

    Have you ever faced opposition while on your Christian walk of faith? If so, you’re not alone. Opposition to the Christian way of doing things has existed since Christianity began. In the passage from Philippians 2:1-13, Paul is trying to deal with a rift that has occurred within the church ...read more

    All of us do it. We compare ourselves to others and by doing so we expose ourselves to one of two things----pride or low self esteem. neither is healthy. Paul teaches us in this passage to keep our eyes on the prize not on other people.

    THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS “The Comparison Trap” Philippians 3:12-4:1 One of my heroes in the NT is the apostle Paul. If anyone had the right to brag, it would be him.

    Stewardship, Generosity, And Giving Are Not The Same Series

    Contributed by Doug Fannon on Sep 19, 2018
     | 8,594 views

    Stewardship is how we manage everything we keep. Stewardship is a role, giving is an act, and generosity is an attitude. Since God created and still owns all we have, stewardship is recognizing that God is the owner and we are his managers, responsible for using God’s possessions to please Him.

    New Sermon Series Begins today on Stewardship. This is not a series about giving more, but more on managing those things that belong to God. To help you understand the biblical position I will be taking on this matter of stewardship, let me ask you a simple question: If you made $1,000 last week, ...read more

    This phrase refers to the Holy Spirit, often symbolized as a dove, and the warning it carries against actions that grieve the Holy Spirit and lead to division within the church. Our unity is a powerful force that can bring about significant change in the church and in the world.

    These verses are an encouragement to see how a Church can behave together when its members are committed to one another as fellow members of the body of Christ and to be generous with our possessions. But they’re also a warning not to hold back what we’ve

    We’ve seen a fascinating thing in Australian politics in the past few weeks. John Howard has gone from being the man of steel to being more like a quick change artist.
