    Contributed by Rodney V Johnson on Oct 15, 2011
     | 6,437 views

    These message discusses how our mentality as it relates to faith can be like the old ice box versus the modern day refrigerator.

    We Walk By Faith Part 7 The Ice Box and The Refrigerator Mentality Scriptures: Deuteronomy 11:31-32; Jeremiah 31:33-34; Hebrews 10:14-25 Introduction In my last message I shared with you that we are empowered by the Holy Spirit and therefore our faith lies within our understanding of how the ...read more

    Pelagianism – Works Versus The Gospel Of Grace

    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Oct 29, 2019
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,186 views

    There are many within Christianity who may unknowingly deny God’s free and eternal gift of salvation by requiring a well-meaning, but a misdirected emphasis on adhering to the Law.

    There is a belief, known as Pelagianism, that has lingered in the church for over 1600 years, which does not accept that the sinful condition of humankind was inherited from Adam and Eve in the Fall (Genesis 3). It is the belief that motivated the ministry of Charles Finney, who is known as the ...read more

    To add anything whether it is baptism or good works or whatever it may be as a requirement for salvation is to diminish grace.

     | 6,017 views

    The message deals with the difference between spiritual moments and consistent daily lives led by the Holy Spirit.

    Romans 8:1-17 Introduction: The thrilling spiritual moments may be genuine responses to God, or they may be the desire of the flesh in just one more moment of exhilaration. I.

    "Online Versus In-Person Service”

    Contributed by Benjamin Utomo on Oct 12, 2020
     | 5,087 views

    After more than six months, our congregation enjoys the convenience of online services, would that create a new habit that will continue even after the pandemic ends? Can on-line replace in-person Sunday service?

    “Online Versus In-Person Service” Opening: A 2019 survey published by Erin Duffin on Jan 17, 2020, showed 23 percent of Americans attend a church or synagogue every week, 10% almost every week, and 12% at least once a month. So, 45% ...read more

    Fresh Revelation? Rhema Versus Logos

    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Nov 7, 2017
    based on 6 ratings
     | 19,065 views

    This message explores what the Bible says about new/fresh/special revelations and the perceived differences between 'Rhema' and 'Logos'

    I often hear people say one of two things about the revelation of the Bible: that God speaks to them, or they wish God would speak to them. Those who say God speaks to them often pull the 'god card' to validate and justify something they have done, a message they have given, or the way ...read more

    What are some reasons that many fail to stand firm?

    HoHum: Archibald Naismith says that at the Battle of Waterloo, when the fight became its worst, an officer galloped up to the Commander, the Duke of Wellington and said, "My Captain says we are being destroyed, we need reinforcements quickly." The Duke said simply, "Tell him to stand." The officer ...read more

    Reasons To Fight The Good Fight

    Contributed by Paul Fritz on Oct 18, 2000
    based on 24 ratings
     | 12,492 views

    Many people do not enjoy arguing, fighting or quarreling. Yet, you can tell what a person considers vital by what they are willing to fight for. The apostles found it necessary to fight the good fight of faith against "false brethren" who wanted to restri

    Quotation: Paul wrote, "Fight the good fight of faith." Many people are fighting battles that are not really worth fighting. Illustration: When I hear my friends say they hope their children don’t have to experience the hardships they went through--I don’t agree. Those hardships made us what we ...read more

    Contributed by Anthony Zibolski on Oct 10, 2013
     | 7,214 views

    Faith and reasoning can work together but reasoning alone can be a faith destroyer. Faith must be stretched and exercised and be put into action. Anything less is dead faith.

    Sowing Seeds; Life, Faith, and Service Sermon #4 Building and maintaining faith Introduction- We are still in the sermon series Sowing Seeds; Life, Faith, and Service. Last week we began to look at faith. We saw that the faith of a mustard seed can be enough to move a mountain. We saw that ...read more

    The greatest message that can prove that Jesus is real, that can draw others to the Lord, and bring about church enlargement is simply a body of believers working together in love and unity; a church that manifests and demonstrates TEAMWORK

    During Jesus’ earthly ministry He gave us a model on how to do ministry work. Jesus approach to ministry was to select a team of people to work closely together to achieve a common goal. Though Jesus was God in human form, though He had all wisdom, knowledge and understanding, He didn’t ...read more

    God's Will Versus Our Will

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Jan 25, 2021
     | 5,455 views

    Do we have ANY choice or is every aspect of our lives already been predetermined by God? Does God choose us even if we don’t want Him to? Does God choose some people but not others? How can you know what God’s will and purposes are?

    Today I want to talk about God’s Will vs. Our Will. We are taught from the Bible that God gives us a free will. It is ours to choose. Sometimes what we choose is good and in the will of God, and other times what we choose is dead wrong. Maybe this message will answer a few of your questions. ...read more

    Most Christians believe because their parents did and they have since birth. But what reason can we give to those who are not already convinced?

    Why We Believe What evidence can you present for your faith that Jesus Christ is son of God, lived on earth, died on cross, resurrected, saved us from sin, etc? 1. Eyewitnesses 2 Peter 1:16 1 John 1:1 2. Preaching to eyewitnesses would be silly, if they knew better. Acts 2:22 2:41 3. ...read more

    The Load-Bearing Wall

    Contributed by David Dunn on Jan 19, 2026
     | 156 views

    As intelligence expands through AI and knowledge explodes, reason gives way to cynicism, revealing confusion about meaning, limits, and where trust belongs.

    We live in an age that is quietly intoxicated with intelligence. Not wisdom—intelligence. We live with the assumption, often unspoken but deeply embedded, that if a problem can be solved, it will be solved by someone smarter than us… or by a system smarter than them. We trust models. We trust data. ...read more

    The two sides of God.

    INTRO.- Judgment versus kindness? Whether we like to admit it or not, it appears there are two sides to God. He has times when He becomes angry at mankind and times when He demonstrates extreme kindness. Genesis 6:5-8 5 The Lord saw how great man’s wickedness on the earth had become, and ...read more
