    This message talks about how all the commands and laws that God has given to us are to be understood as applications and examples of how to follow the greatest commandment: loving God and loving neighbour.

    The condition of your heart is what determines your status with God, not the rituals and traditions you follow.

    Introduction Have you ever asked someone a question and found you had touched a raw nerve? The other person swells up with emotion and then unleashes a tirade. “I’ve had enough of people asking me…” “You want to know my opinion? I’ll be glad to give you my ...read more

    What was it like on Monday for the disciples & followers of Christ after His resurrection the previous day? How about on Tuesday or Wednesday? Does your Christian life look more like the pre-Pentecost disciples or Post-Pentecost?

    This past week was a very fascinating week in the life of a church if you stop & think about it. We celebrated Easter last Sunday with special services & music. The church builds toward Easter for weeks but then as soon as Easter is over – it’s almost like back to business as usual. ...read more

    True revival comes when there is: 1. A call to prayer. 2. A reemergence of God’s Word. 3. A sense of conviction and true repentance.

    Josiah: When Reform Is Not Enough 2 Chronicles 34:16-21 The story of Josiah, King of Judah, is one of the most unusual in the Old Testament in many ways.

    Jesus and the Sabbath Matthew 12:1-21 March 26, 2006 Introduction What do you think of when you think of the word, “Sabbath?” Do you think of church? Do you think of rest? Football on TV?

    Jesus The Controversialist Series

    Contributed by David Owens on Apr 17, 2023
     | 2,126 views

    Mark portrays Jesus as strong and bold as He dealt with spiritual controversies "head on." In this section of Mark, he grouped together four incidents that showed how Jesus faced the controversies and taught the truth. We need to ask ourselves if we are more like Jesus or the Pharisees.

    A. Let me begin with a question: when you try to picture Jesus in your mind, how do you picture Him? 1. Do you picture Him being gentle, meek and loving? Certainly, He was all those things. 2. But Jesus also had other characteristics and other sides to Him. 3. When we read the Gospel accounts, ...read more

    Not everyone is called to the mud-in-the-eye ministry, but if you are then you’ll be a miserable failure trying to do anything else. John 9 offers us an opportunity to spend time with Jesus in the school of ministry.

    TITLE: With Christ In The School of Ministry TEXT: John 9 SCRIBE: Louis Bartet DATE: 6/13/04 PLACE: Point Assembly of God The disciples must have been feeling overly spiritual that day, for as they passed the blind beggar they offered Jesus an observation framed in the form of a question: ...read more

     | 8,251 views

    Important events and experiences make a lasting impression on the lives of both the individual and the family.

    Today is the first Sunday of the month, and this is the Sunday which we will observe the Lord’s Supper. We will do that at the end of the service today, so I thought it appropriate to talk about Communion so that all would understand what it is, what it means, and that we can be on the same page ...read more

    The scary truth is, there are only two spirits that controls a man – God’s Holy Spirit or Satan’s unclean spirit. Friend, which spirit is in control over you?

    Intro: One quiet Sabbath day Jesus entered the synagogue at Capernaum to declare His Father’s will. Notice that where the Lord does a good work, there is also the devil seeking to resist it. In our text, Jesus comes face to face with a man with an unclean spirit. It is a day of grace and ...read more

     | 14,430 views

    the 8 woes of sin as displayed by the Pharisees in Jesus time. They profess to be the only guide in religion, but are blind to truth and practical Christianity. They strain at gnats and swallow camels.

    Eight Woes Upon The Pharisees Marks of a Pharisee Matthew 23:1 Then spake Jesus to the multitude, and to his disciples, Matthew 23:2 Saying, The scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses’ seat: Matthew 23:2 a [Moses’ seat] Twenty-one Characteristics of Hypocrites 1.
