    The Parable Of The Lost Sheep

    Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Jul 13, 2012
     | 8,004 views

    That one single lost sheep is as worthy and as loved as a flock of 99 safe sheep or saved sheep. And that heaven rejoices more over the one lost soul that repents than it does over a whole church who already believes.

    The Parable of the Lost Sheep 15:4-7pp -- Mt 18:12-14 1 Now the tax collectors and "sinners" were all gathering around to hear him. 2 But the Pharisees and the teachers of the law muttered, "This man welcomes sinners and eats with them." 3 Then Jesus told them this parable: 4 "Suppose one of you ...read more

    Nothing But The Blood

    Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Feb 13, 2023
     | 2,814 views

    You could give all your blood to Red Cross, you could give all your possessions to the poor, you could give your life to save the life of someone else… and you still couldn’t pay off the sins of your past. There’s only one thing that can cover our sins, and that’s the blood of Jesus.

    Alba 2-12-2023 NOTHING BUT THE BLOOD Ephesians 2:11-13 Tuesday is Valentine’s Day. At this time you see a lot of hearts because the heart, in our culture, represents love. But the heart also has a very important responsibility. It pumps the blood that we need to keep us alive. A Reader’s ...read more

    How Can I Enter The Kingdom Of Heaven?

    based on 1 rating
     | 2,909 views

    We cannot enter the kingdom of heaven through religious observance, but we can through knowing Christ!

    Jesus’ view of scripture: Jesus was often accused of breaking the Sabbath day (Mt 12:1-2). Jesus’ disciples were accused of not following tradition (Mt 15:2), and Jesus himself was accused of blasphemy. Much more than just eyebrows were raised when Jesus entered the temple at Jerusalem, as he drove ...read more

    What would happen if we took all of the Religious elements out of Christmas?

    Have you noticed that every year people seem more intent on secularizing Christmas? They wish you a “Happy Holiday” or “Seasons Greetings” then have presentations at school that make no mention of the Manger or the Wise Men let alone the Christ Child. Now I may be a little overly sensitive but ...read more

    We, as Christians, need to stop being "religious" and humbly start living for Christ.

    Two Men and God Luke 18:9-14 Are you as good as other men or as good as God? It seems that every time you talk to a “Christian” about something that is wrong in their life, the very first thing to come out of their mouth is “Well I am doing better than ole so-and-so”. Paul wrote, “There is no one ...read more

    Even people like Nicodemus (religious, powerful, intelligent) need to be born again.

    Today we are beginning a new three-part series on John 3 called Eternal Life: The Live Jesus Gives.

    Jesus says that it is not our "religious activity" that produces fruit, but our relationship with Him.

    I THINK MOST OF US WOULD AGREE THAT MINISTRY IS A VERY REWARDING PART OF OUR LIVES. ALL OF US “ADD TO” AND “ASSIST WITH” THE CHAPEL’S MINISTRY IN SOME FORM OR FASHION. HOWEVER, WHERE WE DIFFER IN OUR INVOLVEMENT RELATES TO WHY WE CHOOSE TO DO ALL THESE THINGS. FOR MOST, WE DO IT TO FURTHER THE ...read more
