    Exercising A Dynamic Faith Series

    Contributed by Perry Greene on Jun 4, 2012
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,128 views

    We have observed dead faith and demonic faith, both of which are useless to us. This lesson focuses in on dynamic faith which is essential. The lesson holds up Abraham and Rahab, two people at opposite ends of the spectrum as examples of proper faith.

    1. Some apparent dilemmas: • “Look before you leap” vs. “He who hesitates is lost.” • Proverbs 26.4-5: 4 Answer not a fool according to his folly, lest you be like him yourself. 5 Answer a fool according to his folly, lest he be wise in his own ...read more

    We can learn some great life lessons from Jonah, this is the first of 4 messages I first preached in 1999. I do not remember who my sources for help were so I cannot give proper credit.

    INTRODUCTION  Over the next four weeks I would like us to take some time to look at the Old Testament book of Jonah.  The Book of Jonah is one of the most ridiculed book by the liberal ‘scholars”.  The story of a fish swallowing a man sounds like a whopper of a fish ...read more

    James gives us the proper perspective for life. 1- Don’t be quick to make plans in life 2- Recognize how quickly life disappears 3- Seek the Lord’s will in all things 4- Acknowledge the sin of doing nothing

    INTRO.- Today or tomorrow. Well, what about today and tomorrow? What are you going to do today? And tomorrow?

    Ordinary Proper 23: A sermon looking at three erroneous ways we often attempt to inherit eternal life: religion; good works; riches. Set in the context of a fair that has many things from which we can pick and choose.

    If you all didn’t make it to the Pan American Fair, you missed a good time! You could buy yourself a bunch of tickets and take them from place to place and play a game or buy a drink or get yourself some good food. Let me tell you a bit of what I tried yesterday: I started off by eating a couple ...read more

    A Summary Of The Law, And A Question Of Identity

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Sep 6, 2014
    based on 7 ratings
     | 8,710 views

    Often men are more interested in proving the prowess of their own religious party, rather than listening to Jesus. There are times when we need to stop speaking, stop questioning, and start listening to what God is saying in His Word.

    A SUMMARY OF THE LAW, AND A QUESTION OF IDENTITY. Matthew 22:34-46. This section begins with the Pharisees gathered together with just one malicious desire. They had heard Jesus “putting the Sadducees to silence” (Matthew 22:34), and yet they still imagined that they could outwit Him with ...read more

    The Lord Is With Us Series

    Contributed by Troy Borst on Apr 23, 2020
     | 5,269 views

    We should not be asking whose side God is on, but rather if we are on God’s side. God is the Almighty. God is the Creator. Jesus Christ is the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords… the proper question is “am I on God’s side?”

    The Danger Of Neglect

     | 7,270 views

    Salvation means more than we are saved, we shall go to heaven when we die. Salvation provides complete restoration, pulling us out of the muck and mire of sin and bringing us back into a proper relationship with God.

    The Danger of Neglect By Bishop Melvin L. Maughmer, Jr. SCRIPTURE: - Hebrews 2:1-4 “Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should let them slip.

    Our Response To Disaster: Where Is God? Series

    Contributed by Mark Jones on Dec 17, 2002
    based on 64 ratings
     | 6,206 views

    Where are you GOD…MY GOD why? This was written and delivered to a Bible Study on the Wednesday evening following 9/11/2001. It’s a look at the proper response to disaster and tragedy-how Jesus responded to terrorism and disaster in His day.

    Our Response To Disaster: Where Is God? Luke 13 1Now there were some present at that time who told Jesus about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mixed with their sacrifices. 2Jesus answered, “Do you think that these Galileans were worse sinners than all the other Galileans because they suffered ...read more

    The Awesomeness And Nearness Of God

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 7, 2013
    based on 6 ratings
     | 8,017 views

    The holy God reveals Himself first to Zion, and to the ends of the earth.

    THE AWESOMENESS AND NEARNESS OF GOD. Psalm 99:1-9. The kingship of the LORD is awesome: it makes the people (or peoples) to “tremble” at His presence (Psalm 99:1). He is totally ‘other’ - dwelling between the cherubim, enthroned in heaven. He created all things, and even the earth “shakes” at ...read more

     | 6,598 views

    As with us, so first with Him: no cross, no crown.

    THE KING UPON THE CROSS. Luke 23:33-43. 1. Amongst the Jewish people, the prevalent understanding of the coming of Messiah was coloured by their relatively recent historical experience under the Maccabbees. Surely the expected deliverer would come to break the yoke of Rome, just as Judas of old ...read more

    The restoration of Job.

    A NEW VISION OF GOD. Job 42:1-6. The prose narrative bookends of the epic poem which is the Book of Job provide us at either end with the same judgment of Job’s character. Twice in the first two chapters the LORD taunts Satan with the integrity of Job (Job 1:8; Job 2:3). Twice Satan questions ...read more

     | 5,614 views

    In an argument from the lesser to the greater, this chapter commences with a demonstration of the limitations of the access to God allowed in the annual Day of Atonement. All this anticipates the comparison: But Christ…

    AN INFINITELY SUPERIOR HIGH PRIEST. Hebrews 9:11-14. This short passage is the high point of the writer’s comparison between the old covenant and the new.

    The Christian God Is A Bit Unusual, Isn't He? Series

    based on 5 ratings
     | 897 views

    Crossing yourself may seem a bit weird to Christians who don't do it- a strange ancient (perhaps slightly superstitious) ritual. But at the heart of it are two great biblical truths - perhaps the two greatest truthes of all.
