    Jesus came to make salvation accessible to all. He came to remove any barriers. Here He was breaking down the barrier of sin between man and God. The water the woman had come to draw from the well could only be obtained through hard labor. There was no button to push on the fountain.

    They will tell you that if you are going to build, there are codes you must abide by. Some people have a problem because they have a hard time following instructions. The building codes are given for every builder to build by. One of the most important things in building any building is to have ...read more

    A New Year is always an exciting time for us. WHY? Because last year was not a BANNER YEAR FOR MANY!

    A New Year is also exciting because the past year brought many difficult times into people’s lives. It was a year when: • Some suffered a divorce • Some suffered a financial setback • Some suffered some serious health problems So a New Year is a time when people can put all these bad things behind ...read more

We read in verse 2, "And behold, there was a man named Zacchaeus, which was the chief among the publicans, and he ...read more

    We have seen that we need to add to our faith : • VIRTUE - We need virtue because virtue is what sets the boundaries of what WE DO and DO NOT DO! • KNOWLEDGE - We need knowledge of WHO HE IS and WHAT HE IS LIKE if we are going to become like Him. After he tells us to add virtue and knowledge, he ...read more

    On of the things that hurts the Lord’s work is that sometimes people join the church who are not sincere in their relationship with the Lord.

    These join for wrong reasons. For example, if you ask people what kind of church they are looking for, some answers will be: • “Well, I do not really like that church, but I probably will join the one down the street because it is convenient.” • “I am looking for a church with a good youth ...read more
