    Whereas traditional Atheism denies the existence of God, Christian Atheism accepts that there is a God but rejects the supernatural claims of Jesus. Navigating this reality takes wisdom, patience, and a commitment to clarifying the truth.

    William Barclay wrote, “There is no escape from a personal decision in regard to Jesus; we must ourselves decide what we will do with him, accept him or reject him.”

    What Will You Do With Jesus? Will You Dethrone Him?

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Mar 21, 2025
     | 293 views

    Joseph’s life is a testimony of how God turns adversity into advancement. From rejection to rulership, his story proves that divine purpose cannot be stopped by man’s plans.

    CHARACTER STUDY OF JOSEPH – SOLD INTO SLAVERY, BECAME RULER IN EGYPT By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Genesis 37:5-7 – “And Joseph dreamed a dream, and he told it his brethren: and they hated him yet the more.

    based on 1 rating
     | 348 views

    Hagar’s story is a powerful reminder of God’s compassion for the rejected and the outcast. Her life teaches us to trust in God’s plans, even when circumstances seem unfair. No matter our situation, God sees, hears, and provides for His children.

    CHARACTER STUDY OF HAGAR – SARAH’S MAID, MOTHER OF ISHMAEL By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Genesis 16:1-16 "Then she called the name of the Lord who spoke to her, ‘You are the God who sees’; for she said, ‘Have I also here seen Him who sees me?’" (Genesis 16:13) Supporting Texts: ...read more

    Paul gives another secret of real joy -- how to get right with God. Paul examines several ways he COULD try, and rejects each of them in favor of real FAITH.

    Sermon #3: Get Right Before God 4 ¶ Though I might also have confidence in the flesh.

    What Crime Did Jesus Commit? Series

    Contributed by Rick Duncan on Mar 9, 2004
    based on 54 ratings
     | 10,857 views

    We see the context that sets up the reason Jesus was rejected by the Jews. He called for integrity, challenged their authority, claimed to be deity. We then move from the reasons to the purpose - our justification.

    Almost 2000 years ago, Jesus asked His followers a question: “Who do you say I am?” It’s still the fundamental question of life. And the answer creates controversy. It’s one reason why Mel Gibson’s film, The Passion of the Christ, is so controversial. This is a film that has had the audacity ...read more

    Bringing In The Net Series

     | 2,993 views

    Although the people had rejected their Messiah, a path back was possible. They had to change their attitude, become followers of Jesus, and enjoy the blessings of salvation if they were to align themselves to God’s will for them.

    Bringing in the Net (Acts 2:37-40) 1. I have been a juror a number of times. Although I do not look forward to the time commitment, I have found my experiences interesting. 2.

    Pentecost 14(B) - Faith believes the "hard teachings" of Scripture. Many decide to reject Christ and his word. God’s Spirit gives life through Christ’s words.

    FAITH BELIEVES THE “HARD TEACHINGS” (Outline) August 17 2008 -- PENTECOST 14 -- John 6:60-69 INTRO: One basic meaning for the word faith = trust. Everyone has faith in regards to the word trust.

    Using the time when God’s people rejected Samuel as their leader and demanded a king to lead them as an example of how our nation is ever turning away from Godly principles.

    Scripture: 1 Samuel 8:1-22 Title: “When A Nation Divorces God” Introduction: Here in 1 Sam. 8 we see a great change taking place. Because of the aging of Samuel and the failure of Samuel’s sons in their positions of leadership the leaders of the people request a king, not a judge, to rule over ...read more

     | 3,892 views

    This short talk given at a Communion service during Holy Week asks three questions: What must we reject, how must we run and where must we look?

    The New Testament scholar Raymond Brown wrote this: “Using vivid athletic imagery the author [of Hebrews] tells his readers what they must reject, how they must run and where they must look.” 1: What we must reject: “Let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles” ...read more

    Psalm Of The Forsaken Series

     | 5,435 views

    This series looked at the cross from the OT point of view. Psalm 22 is a perfect prophecy of what would happen to Jesus on the cross. His forsakeness is our assurance we will never be rejected.

    PSALM OF THE FORSAKEN Anyone who reads Psalm 22 can easily see Jesus written all over it and in it. This Psalm is often called the Psalm of Jesus or even the fifth Gospel. It is probably the most amazing of all the Psalms in that we have such a clear picture of the crucifixion of Jesus. And David ...read more
