Waiting On God

Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 14, 2010

Waiting on God is one of the most difficult things to do. Apparently the whole life secret lies in it. What does waiting on the Lord include? Let me put it in three brief exhortations. Keep near Him; keep still; expect.

Illustration: Themistocles, who led the Greeks in the famous naval battle of Salamis, for some reason unknown to his troops, delayed the engagement. It was expected that he would avail himself of the early morning hours; and when what seemed the golden opportunity had gone in inactivity, there were ...read more

Success In Singleness Series

Contributed by Todd Leupold on Apr 28, 2010

Success and Singleness are not two words most people easily put together. For most, the state of singleness is only ever supposed to be a temporary, necessary stage of life. Some might even go as far as to see as a 'necessary evil.' Too frequently to b

Marijuana Use: Willingly Walking Into Bondage

Contributed by Terry Frazier on Feb 1, 2014

What's really behind the movement in America to legalize marijuana? Why do we want to sanction people being put into bondage to a substance and in a broader sense sin? This is very troubling as Christians seem to be having a hard time standing against sin

A couple of weeks ago I preached a message on the Christian views on legalizing marijuana in America. If you’ll recall, I wasn’t very supportive of the idea. The notion that we can legalize sin and somehow make state sanctioning of sin a good thing despite the fact that legalizing ...read more

Genuine Burial Shroud Of Jesus Found

Contributed by John Gaston on Jan 26, 2018

The Shroud of Turin,the burial shroud of Jesus, contains a photographic negative of the Crucified Savior. A faulty study in 1988 said it was of medieval date. It has been overturned. A new study says that a light source brighter than any put it on there.

Genuine Burial Shroud of Jesus Found When you see the Shroud of Turin, you are seeing a kind of supernatural photograph of Jesus, taken by God 2,000 years ago, as he lay in the tomb after his death by crucifixion. It undoubtedly happened at the moment of His resurrection. 1. THE IMAGE IS OF A ...read more

We are all trying to navigate through life putting God first. God encourages us to embrace a curriculum of wisdom. Wisdom will guide us through the complexities of uncertainty about what to do and the clarity to do what we should do.

Good Vibrations - Part 2 Series

Contributed by Antonio Silveira on Mar 19, 2012

In order to understand the Spiritual World we need to become like children. Start learning again; overcome offence; and above all things we need the presence of God. We need to put God First and be filled with the Holy Ghost and FIRE!

I started this message by teaching on how we can "feel" the presence of God. This is something that happens when we receive His Holy Spirit. Being filled or baptized in the Spirit means that we opened ourselves to His presence and when we have full conscience of God's presence we can suddenly ...read more

Growing In The Lord Committed To Serve

Contributed by Kelvin Mckisic on Jun 25, 2023

We need to understand that when we are committed to serve we are put in the position of a servant. Some of us may find that hard to do or be, but if we want to grow in the Lord we have to be: 1) a servant, 2) committed to that service.

The Free Gift Of Grace Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Jan 7, 2022

People like presents, especially good ones that are useful, and that reveal how the giver put forth some thought into the purchase. In the Bible we are told of the best gift of all! “The gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

Everyone likes to receive presents; however, there are some we could probably live without. Christmas time is when the majority of gifts are given, and it seems to be the occasion when some of the worst ones are purchased during those last minute shopping trips. A survey was conducted in which ...read more
