    Shadow Of Death

    Contributed by G W Bill Elliott Jr on Feb 27, 2020
     | 7,703 views

    Yea, though I walk through the valley of the ‘shadow of death’ indicates there is a massive, bright and overwhelming light of hope behind any ‘darkness’ that haunts you. Behind any/all darkness in your life is that ‘ray of hope’, which is higher, greater, and certainly brighter than any ‘doom’.

    Fear is a distressing emotion aroused by impending danger, evil, pain, etc., whether the threat is real or imagined. Often it is the feeling or condition of being afraid. Combine that with Darkness and there-in is a gripping and many times overwhelming sense of pending doom.. of certain calamity… ...read more

    There are things we face in life that do not fall neatly into the right or wrong categories. There are some things we’re faced with, some areas of conduct that the Bible really doesn’t address. That’s what Paul is addressing.

    INTRODUCTION Open your Bibles, please, to Romans 14. Today I want to talk about, “Hey! A Christian Can’t Do THAT!” I heard about a guy who crossed the street in front of his house to go to the mailbox and get the mail. And after he got the mail he was walking back across the ...read more

    This sermon is about the contrast between Peter's faith when he was distracted when walking on the water. He took his eyes off Jesus. The Canaanite woman faced many distractions but refused to take her eyes off Jesus. some comments from Ray Pritchard Matthew 15

    The Black Of Sin Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Sep 6, 2025
    based on 3 ratings
     | 2,371 views

    I couldn't find a scripture that equated sin or iniquity with the color black (a color of bead used in the popular "witness bracelet"). But the Bible does talk about sin as a "deep darkness" and that description has powerful implications for Christians.

    It was a dark, dark night. A man was making his way home from working late, and as he often did, he walked home through a cemetery because it was a quicker route. However, because it was so dark, he didn’t notice a new grave had been dug in his path, and he tumbled into a 7 foot deep hole in the ...read more

    In Jesus Holy Name June 28, 2020 Text: Colossians 3:12-14 Pentecost IV - Redeemer “You Can Forgive The Past” The Declaration of Independence declares that all men are created equal. It was and remains the American dream. We all know it has been applied inconsistently, but ...read more

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Aug 4, 2022
     | 1,685 views

    Fellowship is built on fact and testimony, and has the most solid basis. It is built on the eternal life of God; on God’s forgiveness of sin through the satisfaction that the righteousness of God was satisfied at Calvary; and on the promises of God, for His promises can not be broken.

    MESSAGE - 1 JOHN VERSES 2-4: ETERNAL LIFE AND FELLOWSHIP WITH JOY COMPLETE On the previous occasion when we looked at the opening verse of this glorious first letter of John, we explored many thoughts that are contained in that marvellous verse.

    We're at war with Satan, but too often churches ignore the conflict and avoid doing what has to be done to tear down the gates of Hell. What can we do to avoid going AWOL in this great battle for the souls of the lost?

    When I went to Israel, I visited a place about 25 miles north of the Sea of Galilee called Caesarea Philippi. The area lays in the shadow of Mt. Hermon, whose ice caps (when they melt) supply clean fresh springs for the waters of the Jordan River. This abundant water supply made the area fertile ...read more
