In light of everything that has happened with hurricane Katrina and other events around the world we can say beyond the shadow of a doubt that we are living in the last days. Never the less God challenges us to have a heart of compassion.

Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good. 10 Be devoted to one another in brotherly love. Honor one another above yourselves. 11 Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord. 12 Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer. 13 ...read more

The final command of Paul to the Church in expectation of the rapture, it is the command to be REAL

"BE REAL!" And now we arrive at the final command of Paul to the Church in expectation of the rapture, it is the command to be Real! Because our nature tends to slide toward unfaithfulness, as time passes. Is it ok to be faithful once, some times, most of the time; or does God really ask that ...read more

Be Real Colossians 3:1-4 PLAY GAME: Is It Real or Is It Fake? I want to talk to you this morning about being a Christian.

A study of the Beatitudes. Jesus begins His sermon on the mount answering the question: "What will it take to make you happy?" His answer, however, is far different from the way most people will answer. In fact, his answers appear to bring sorrow, not happiness.

PURSUIT OF HAPPYNESS: BE REAL A. What is the REAL YOU, like? 1. I believe there are times when we HIDE behind MASKS and FACADES and not allow our “TRUE- SELVES” to come out.

Moral Issues: Abortion Series

based on 131 ratings

When common arguments about abortion confuse us, let’s listen to what God says and let Him settle the dispute.

INTRO: Abortion is an emotionally volatile subject. Both sides are moved with passionate zeal to promote their cause. Anti-abortionists know that if abortion is sinful, they must speak out rabidly or bear the guilt of this moral crime against humanity on their own silent hands. At the same time, ...read more

Even though drinking hits home with our families and friends, we must oppose it to stop it from destroying those whom we love.

INTRO: Do I have to try to impress you with the statistics? You already know them. Even unbelievers are alarmed at the rise in alcoholism, drunk driving, and broken homes. The problem of drinking today is “staggering”. We need to be sympathetic with alcoholics who try to break their addiction, but ...read more

Moral Issues: Fornication Series

based on 294 ratings

| 26,098 views

Fornication is not just a sin against another person, it is also a sin against ourselves.

INTRO: To most people, the word “fornication” means very little. They never hear the word used unless spoken by a preacher, or they stumble across it in the Bible. Therefore, preaching about fornication sometimes does little good because people think we are talking about some other kind of deviant ...read more

When gambling thrives, someone else suffers! Lost in the glitter of the multimillion dollar winner are all the millions of losers.

INTRO: Horse racing, lottery, church bingo, casino nights, carnival games, raffles for charity—when it comes to gambling, we’ve got it all! And when it comes to determining the morality of gambling, we have more defenses that confuse the issue than we have convictions that clarify it! A simple ...read more

When the popular view conflicts with the Bible view, which view should we accept?

INTRO: Homosexuality is not a new way of living. So why has it come to the forefront of cultural issues in the past generation? Is it true that those who oppose homosexuality are prudes, homophobes, gay-bashers, and self-righteous bigots? I suppose that depends on who you ask. What would you call ...read more

God is color blind. Are you?

INTRO: Prejudice. Discrimination. Segregation. Racism. Our society cries out against such offenses—as well it should! Prejudice judges a man’s character by his outward appearance.

When sex is about intimacy in marriage it is beautiful. When it is about lust and lewdness it is tarnished.

INTRO: Many people who are unfamiliar with the Bible think that it presents sex as an ugly—although necessary—thing for the purpose of procreation. Many Christians who are unfamiliar with the Bible think the same thing. Both are wrong. And both of those misguided perspectives have caused problems ...read more

Dealing with issues? Go to the source.

Many people, even Christians have issues in their life that if left unattended will lead them to a mediocre life or to certain catastrophe.
