  • Communion - Open, Closed, Or Cracked? Series

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Nov 7, 2020
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,139 views

    Is the Communion Meal Open to all who profess Christ? Or is it overseen by the congregation hosting the meal and thus restricted to those who are in open fellowship with the assembly? The message is a study of this controversial question.

    “In the following instructions I do not commend you, because when you come together it is not for the better but for the worse. For, in the first place, when you come together as a church, I hear that there are divisions among you. And I believe it in part, for there must be factions among you in ...read more

  • When You Look At God, Who Do You See?

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jun 13, 2020
     | 8,011 views

    Our view of God depends upon our perspective. Sinners see God as vengeful; saints see God as a refuge. Thus, our relationship to God determines how we view Him.

    “The LORD is a jealous and avenging God; the LORD is avenging and wrathful; the LORD takes vengeance on his adversaries and keeps wrath for his enemies. The LORD is slow to anger and great in power, and the LORD will by no means clear the guilty. His way is in whirlwind and storm, and the ...read more

    THE GLORIES OF CHRIST Message 3: The Holy Trinity A. What is the Trinity? What do we mean by the ‘Holy Trinity’? The adjective ‘triune’ literally means ‘three in one’.

  • Unchained Melody Series

     | 2,969 views

    The Miktams comprise Psalms written by David during a time of distress. Where shall the Christian turn when life appears to be crashing in? The Psalmist instinctively turns to God, just as the wise Christian turns to God.

    A MIKTAM OF DAVID. “Preserve me, O God, for in you I take refuge. I say to the LORD, ‘You are my Lord; I have no good apart from you.’ “As for the saints in the land, they are the excellent ones, in whom is all my delight. “The sorrows of those who run after another god shall multiply; ...read more

    Ignorant people attempt to mask their lack of knowledge through arrogance. Jesus pierced the facade of the Sadducees by pointing to what was written in the Word of the Living God.

    “Sadducees came to [Jesus], who say that there is no resurrection. And they asked him a question, saying, ‘Teacher, Moses wrote for us that if a man’s brother dies and leaves a wife, but leaves no child, the man must take the widow and raise up offspring for his brother. There were seven ...read more

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Mar 18, 2022
     | 2,665 views

    In worship, God is more concerned that we focus on Him than than we should be overly concerned about the mechanics of what we are doing.

    “After this the Moabites and Ammonites, and with them some of the Meunites, came against Jehoshaphat for battle. Some men came and told Jehoshaphat, ‘A great multitude is coming against you from Edom, from beyond the sea; and behold, they are in Hazazon-tamar’ (that is, Engedi). Then Jehoshaphat ...read more

     | 2,357 views

    Complaints against the Lord contaminate the entire assembly, necessitating God's discipline if we fail to practise self-discipline.

    God repeatedly warns inhabitants of this dying world to look to Him or receive His judgement. The message looks at the Second Psalm in light of current world conditions.

    “Why do the nations rage and the peoples plot in vain?

     | 2,241 views

    We must realise that we are susceptible to transforming the Faith through the introduction of our best efforts to make the Faith more meaningful.

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Nov 4, 2022
     | 3,051 views
