    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Aug 27, 2023
     | 1,385 views

    Every aspect of God’s perfect creation in Genesis 1 has been inverted by man to make monstrosities out of what God created and said, “It is good.” Satan is the one who will destroy and mangle all for evil. We look at these items Satan has mangled, twisted and inverted.

    MAN HAS TWISTED, CONTORTED, INVERTED, AND OPPOSED ALL GOD’S CREATION – PART 1 – GENESIS CHAPTER 1 We are now living in a twisted, contorted and inverted world. In fact the change has not been a slow creeping of the years, but a very rapid convolution that has ascended from the pit and into the ...read more

    Contributed by James Jackson on Sep 3, 2023
     | 2,950 views

    Ezekiel 22:30 has been the theme verse for lots of men's ministries. It is definitely compelling to think we might be the man God is looking for to stand in the gap. But the truth is, we are missing the point.

    Who Stands in the Breach? Ezekiel 22: 23-31, 2 Kings 25:1-4 Good morning! Please turn in your Bibles to Ezekiel 22:23. Page 664 in the pew Bibles. On October 4, 1997, me and about a dozen men from the church I was serving at the time jumped on a bus at about 2 in the morning and drove 400 miles ...read more

    - Sermon series: “How to Disagree.” Last week we established that there are disputable matters, which is an important category to understand. There may be theological issues about which sincere believers can have honest disagreement. - Having established that, we move today onto the next logical ...read more

    Some Aspects Of The Church From Its Beginning – Types Of The Church Found In The Old Testament – Part 3 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Oct 5, 2023
     | 1,604 views

    The Church universal is a New Testament concept revealed at the appropriate time, but it is special to see some types in the Old Testament that hint at the Church to come. These make interesting studies and parallels. Types always are satisfying to study.

    SOME ASPECTS OF THE CHURCH FROM ITS BEGINNING – TYPES OF THE CHURCH FOUND IN THE OLD TESTAMENT – PART 3 OLD TESTAMENT TYPES OF THE CHURCH The Church is not mentioned in the Old Testament and was a concept fully unknown, as Israel only was the focus.

    God calls us to be holy as He is holy. Is this even possible? Consider these thoughts about how we are holy.

    From the beginning of time, God has desired to have a relationship with people. We saw it as we looked at the new creation when God placed everything under mankind’s dominion. It was evident as we looked at the new life as we saw how God provided even after people messed things up by listening to ...read more

    Ancient Paths Are Ripped Up And Crooked Ways Prevail Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on May 13, 2024
     | 938 views

    Our nations have bulldozed out the ancient paths that were set for us by more decent legislators and leaders in the past; indeed, by God Himself. Every moral statute of God has now been trashed – marriage, creation, birth, sexuality. Judah did that and met God’s judgement.

    ANCIENT PATHS ARE RIPPED UP AND CROOKED WAYS PREVAIL {{Jeremiah 6:16 Thus says the LORD, “Stand by the ways and see, AND ASK FOR THE ANCIENT PATHS WHERE THE GOOD WAY IS, AND WALK IN IT, and you shall find rest for your souls, but they said, ‘We will not walk in it.

    If I'm persecuted because of my faith, I should rejoice and be glad? How does that work?
