     | 45,509 views

    14th in a series from Ephesians. Those who have been created as new creations by God are His masterpieces.

    Although most artists create many different works, it seems that for most of them, they come to be identified primarily with one particular work. Let’s see if you can identify the artists who created each of these works that I’ll display on the screen. Since, as you know, I’m not very cultured, ...read more

    Be Imitators Of God

    Contributed by Clay Gentry on Aug 5, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,565 views

    To call for Christians to imitate, or live like, their God is just as needed now as it was 2,000 years ago.

    Ephesians 5:1 is rather plain, “Be imitators of God.” As God’s children, we have no higher calling or purpose in life than to be like of heavenly Father. The Way of Christ is designed to reproduce godliness in our lives and therefore mold us and shape us into the image of God. ...read more

    How The Church Must Live According To The Gospel Series

    Contributed by Chris Appleby on Aug 7, 2008
    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,786 views

    We’re to please God, not ourselves and we’re to love one another; to seek their welfare above our own. The Christian life is always one of growth, of ongoing training, as we press on towards the goal of eternal life.

    I think Christians often struggle with knowing how to respond to the pressures we feel to lower our standards of behaviour. And there are two extremes that we come across among Christians. One extreme thinks we should forget those old fashioned mores and get with the times: after all, this is a new ...read more

    The church must have one main focus and that is the saving of lost souls. We don't need more entertainment and more pats on the back for our own salvation and faithfulness. God give us a burden for the lost!

    The Cry of a Christian Heart Sunday, January 06, 2019 – 6 pm By Rev. James May The most prolific writer of the New Testament was the Apostle Paul as he wrote many letters to the church of his day. How much he thought of the church that would be around in 2019 I don’t know, but the words he was ...read more

    Belonging In The Will Of God Series

    Contributed by Paul Robinson on Sep 15, 2022
     | 2,762 views

    One of the most sought-after things in the Christian life is the will of God. What is God’s will for my life? How do I know that I’m in the will of God? What if God’s will for me is something I really don’t like? These are common questions, and maybe you have asked them yourself.

    WHAT GOD'S WILL IS NOT 1. God’s will is not something that you find For some reason we tend to have this idea that we must discover God’s will for our lives. That’s not how it works. God is the one who finds YOU. Abraham did not choose God; God chose Abraham. David did not choose to become ...read more
