    based on 1 rating
     | 1,062 views

    The gift of salvation is the door opened to a relationship with God for people who know they’re separated from God and don’t want to be.

    The country once called Zaire is gone. It’s hard to believe how fast it happened, isn’t it? The suffering has been terrible, but 7 months is an incredibly short time for a civil war to begin, run its course, and end, especially a country the size of Zaire. I mean, the Republic of Congo. It’s as big ...read more

    This Is, Thou Art

    There is a fundamental difference of me looking directly into my sons eyes and saying, "You are my beloved son," and if I were to put my arm around him and say to you, "this is my beloved son." One is a private declaration, one is a public demonstration.

    This is Thou Art Text: Luke 3:21,22; Matthew 17:5 Luke 3:21-22 Now when all the people were baptized, it came to pass, that Jesus also being baptized, and praying, the heaven was opened, And the Holy Ghost descended in a bodily shape like a dove upon him, and a voice came from heaven, which said, ...read more

    Individualism Series

    Contributed by Tim Smith on Jun 17, 2013
     | 5,191 views

    We have become captive to the idea that faith is a private matter. We have bought into society’s value of individualism. Individualism is leading life one’s own way with little to no regard or connection to others. But is that what God wants for us?

    Individualism Joshua 7: 2-12a Imagine somebody courteously asking, “How is your family life?” or “How is your prayer life?” or “Is your thought life pure?” or “How wisely do you use your time?” or as John Wesley would ask Methodists in his day, ...read more

    A Review Of Classroom Literature Textbooks

    Contributed by Byron Perrine on Jul 9, 2019
     | 2,294 views

    In years past, classroom literature textbooks used in American schools, both public and private, reinforced both Christian values of ethics and morality. In most public schools today, such things are no longer given to our children to read. This does not bode well for the future of democracy.

    (If you have found this sermon helpful, please visit us at www.HeritageRestorationProject.org or www.ChristianWisdom.info) After having conducted an exhaustive survey of Americans who identify themselves and Christians, George Barna reported the following results in his book, “The State of the ...read more

    Facing obstacles to sharing the gospel is common, but God will find listeners who learn to live for Jesus. When one door closes he opens another.

    Here in Acts 28:16-28 Paul explains himself, the gospel and their rejection of it. Why I’m wearing these chains. Why Jesus is the Christ. Why do your hearts reject him, and where will God go from here. Jenny and I were walking along in the neighborhood a few weeks ago when we came across ...read more

    Here in this last chapter Paul deals with some of the things a church, feeling it own pressure as well the external pressure of those outside its own doors.

    FINAL THOUGHTS FOR A PRESSURED CHURCH INTRODUCTION: For everything we read about the Corinthian Church, and everything Paul attempts to teach this same church, for the most part we are left with a church struggling to identify itself to each other and in its community.
