    Injustice Rendered Series

    Contributed by D Marion Clark on Dec 25, 2012
     | 4,737 views

    Injustice was rendered at Jesus’ trial, but true justice will be rendered when he returns in power as Judge.

    Introduction As much as we may uphold the judicial system, all of us have felt at times that injustice, rather than justice, was rendered in a courtroom. Perhaps it was due to incompetence by the defense or prosecution or even the judge. Perhaps the jury was deficient. Perhaps there was bribery ...read more

    We must climb higher in God to catch a true vision of what, and who, God really is. Without that proper vision we stand in danger of perishing,

    Come Up On the Mountain Wednesday, July 20, 2011 Pastor James May Why do people love to go up on the mountains? For most of us it is the experience of feeling on top of the world. It is as though you can look down on the world far below and for just a moment, catch a glimpse of how God must ...read more

    Abusing Grace

    based on 4 ratings
     | 25,740 views

    “Grace” is such an abused topic in most churches today. It is not some celestial catch-all to allow us to mess up and then say “God’s grace covers me.” Personal responsibility has a place in Christianity. God’s grace makes our spiritual growth and “perfec

    Opening illustration: After a 4-year-old got into trouble at preschool, his mom asked him what he had done wrong. He explained, “I was angry with a playmate.

    Last week I talked about how we may need a fresh start. But it's not so easy. We may have a hard time making the changes that are necessary for a fresh start. But sometimes, we may not need a total fresh start, we may just need a restart.

    A FRESH START (part two) Last week I talked about how we may need a fresh start for various reasons-relationship problems, job loss, trouble with the law, etc. So, we change locations, find a new job, start getting connected with new people, etc. Obviously the best fresh start we can make is ...read more
