    Overcoming Unbelief

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Aug 22, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,961 views

    We see that God speaks highly of a man named Caleb that he would be the only one to enter into the Promised Land which God promised he would give to him and his descendants. Not only did Caleb receive commendation from God, there was a promise of God’s blessing on his descendants too.

    For today’s meditation we will look at Deuteronomy 1:36, “Only Caleb son of Jephunneh will enter it. He has remained faithful to me, and I will give him and his descendants the land that he has explored.'” (GNB) A background about Caleb We see that God speaks highly of a man named Caleb that ...read more

    When we are baptized with the water we are also baptized with the Holy Spirit and, as a result, receive a full measure of the same grace and love Jesus received when He showed us the way with His baptism.

    Watergrave Do any of you remember your baptism? I remember mine. You see, I can remember mine because I was 17 at the time. I was baptized and brought into membership in a Baptist church. Now, it wasn’t because I was a Baptist that I was older when I had this experience of ...read more

    Bust-A-Move

    This sermon looks at our need to allow the Holy Spirit to move into our lives and into the church so we can move up into the gifts and talents given to us by the Holy Spirit so that we can move out as a church into our community and the world.

    Bust-A-Move Years ago there was a phrase called, “Bust-A Move.” It is a dancing term, more along the lines of break dancing. But it also means to get moving, which is what we need to be doing as believers and as a church, because time is short. And so today I’d like to look at how we are to ...read more

    We Walk By Faith, Not By Sight (A Long Walk On A Short Pier)

    Contributed by Barry Edmondson on Aug 10, 2008
    based on 1 rating
     | 9,324 views

    Your intellect and your five senses are hollering “No! It won’t work. I’ll make a fool of myself.” But God’s Word and His Spirit say “Yes!” We are faced daily with challenges to walk by faith, not by sight.

    •• Philip took the proverbial “long walk on a short pier”. He had been having an immensely successful revival in the city of Samaria, with many conversions and healings, signs, and wonders manifested (Acts 8:5-8). Philip immediately left all that to follow the instructions from “an angel of ...read more

    The message takes a look at the work of Holy Spirit in relation to John 14:6 where Jesus describes himself as, the Way, Truth, and Life

    The Spirit is given so we might live and act as Jesus. One of my favorite passages is John 14:6 where Jesus describes himself in His own words. Yes, Christianity is narrow and exclusive in the path to heaven but notice the three descriptors, the way, truth, and life. Jesus answered, “I am the ...read more
