    The Lord deals with OUR FEARS by offering us HIS FAVORS for A FORMIDABLE FUTURE! Every verse highlights OUR FEARS and stresses HIS FAVORS as it relates to the FUTURE.

    I once read the account of a minister who described the most disconcerting experience of his ministry. He told how, that as he began his sermon an elderly woman, seated near the front, opened a little box, took out an elaborate hearing aid, arranged its parts, screwed them together, and adjusted ...read more

    God is restoring a remnant through Jesus.

    A faithful minority. Rom. 11:1 -- 10. 08/24/03 I looked up the word faithful in the dictionary. The dictionary reported the meaning of faithful as true and trustworthy in the performance of duty. That is sort of what we expected isn’t it? When Hudson Taylor went to China, he made the voyage on ...read more

    We can anticipate knowing people who once claimed to follow Jesus but then later decided to disavow Him. How do we account for this?

    History Repeats Itself (Hebrews 6:4-12 with Numbers 13-14) 1. Many people today are walking away from the Lord. How do we account for this? Many compliant but unconverted. Some may come to Christ later. 2. Many of those are not denying that Jesus is the Son of God; they just don’t care. 3. Some ...read more

    This a sermon given to a group of mainly over 60’s, challenging us to think about Stephen. In particular the way he copied Jesus by praying for his persecutors.

They loved their Bible (our Old Testament) and they were very vocal in their defence of the faith which had ...read more

    This message examines the indictment Paul brings against the human race. This is is his first round of evidence to support the indictment.

Unfortunately, these same attitudes have been carried over into the church. The list of subjects we ...read more

    Helping Children To Know God

    Contributed by Robert Leroe on May 10, 2015
     | 5,795 views

    Children need to know God's Truth; they can't simply take on their parent's beliefs, but need to understand and receive the truth of God on their own. Parents have a responsibility to guide children in the way they're to go.

    Being a parent is an enormous responsibility. I can’t think of anything in life that’s more challenging. I’ve been to war, and I’ve had kids; war was easier. Proverbs 22:6 tells parents to “Train up children in the way they should go, and when they are old, they ...read more
