  • God’s Grace Will Overcome

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 6, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,337 views

    Grace can assist us in overcoming life’s problems by helping when all else fails. When we’re at the end of our rope, from struggling and trying everything humanly possible and exhausting our own resources, then grace steps in.

    Every time I became frustrated it was because I was trying to do something myself . . . instead of putting my faith in God and receiving His grace. - Joyce Meyer(1) In our message this morning we’re going to look at grace to overcome life’s daily challenges. Grace is simply defined as, “The ...read more

  • The Depths Of Despair

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 6, 2022

    This message looks at some Bible passages on the cave of despair. How do people tend to act when they find themselves in such a dark place? What do we need to do, in order for God to deliver us into a place of hope and life?

    I want to get us started with our message this morning by sharing an illustration that I’ve used on numerous occasions: Back when I was in college, I used to go cave exploring with a friend as often as possible. Sometimes we went about twice a week. Well, one evening we followed a lead for a new ...read more

    Have you ever questioned your salvation? As long as we keep our trust totally in Christ, we stand assured of God’s promise of eternal life. But as soon as we rest any weight on the thin ice of our own efforts, we topple into insecurity.

    Have you ever wondered about your salvation; about whether or not you are going to heaven when you die? Some questions we might have are, “What am I supposed to do in order to gain God’s acceptance and love?” “Do I have to read the Bible all the way through?” “Do I have to knock on a million ...read more

  • God Is A God Of Wrath Attributes Of God (10 Od 10 Sermons)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 9, 2022
     | 1,290 views

    As we continue to learn what kind of God the God of the Bible is we will preach about one last attribute.

    So far, we have preached about God's being holy, immutable, love, jealous, orderly, omnipotent, omniscient, and omnipresent. The Bible reveals all these attributes to us because God wants us to come to know Him. He knows we cannot WORSHIP and SERVE Him if we do not KNOW Him. Now, if I was a ...read more

  • The Refiner’s Fire

    In this passage, Ezekiel described the Babylonian exile as being the crucible in which Israel was melted down, and the godly (the silver) were separated from the unrighteous (the dross). The purpose of the refiner's fire is spiritual purification.

    I wish to begin our message with an illustration: There was a dedicated Christian woman who once visited a tourist attraction, which happened to be a working replica of a pioneer village; and one of the manned displays she observed was a silversmith shop. The woman watched the silversmith as he ...read more

    How many of you wear glasses? I’ve worn mine since I was seven years old. I was able to wear contact lenses for about 20 years but after about 40 they don’t work so well.

    When you read the word church in your English Bible it is a translation of the Greek word ekklesia. The literal meaning is those who are called out. The general use in Greek was to express the idea of an assembly.

    You are most likely familiar with the children’s hand motion and rhyme to learn about church. Here is the church, here is the steeple, open the door and see all the people. Well, when we really understand church we say, here is the building and here is the steeple, open the door and see the ...read more

    We make disciples by telling others about our Jesus. But how do we do that, and what does it look like when we do?

One year they invited a liberal scholar to come speak and he spoke for 2 ½ hours telling the ...read more
