The Pair Are Tempted Into Sin Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Jul 6, 2018

Up to this point, God’s voice is the only one we have heard; creating and commanding. Now another “voice” is heard, the voice of Satan, the deceiver. Eve was deceived when she ate, but Adam was not; he sinned with his eyes wide open.

Simon Peter: From Fisherman To Follower

Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Jan 21, 2020

The 11 disciples had already gone to Galilee as Jesus had commanded (see Matthew 28:10). Some of the disciples decided to follow Simon Peter and once again begin fishing. But they saw Jesus another time and that changed everything, at least for one disciple!

Chief

Contributed by Rev. Timothy Porter on Dec 11, 2020

Names! We all have them.They are important to our knowing one another and to others knowing us. Most of our names are unimportant, that is, we could have any other name on earth and still be the same person we already are.

Relying On God's Love Series

Contributed by Terry Denis on Feb 26, 2019

Apostle John reiterates his call for Christians to love one another. Somehow, this is difficult to do but John reminded us to rely on God's love and not our selfish love. Our selfish love discriminates and is subjective but the love of God is pure and unconditional.

Relying on God’s Love 1 John 4:13-21 Introduction Apostle John is often called the “apostle of love” because he spoke about the subject on love more than the other New Testament writers. The manner of John’s discourse seems to tell us that the believers did not understand the true message of ...read more

Mind Your Own Business!

Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Oct 11, 2020

If we decide to get involved in another person's business, chances are we will be told to mind our own business. In some cases we should do that but there are other situations when it's appropriate to not mind our own business.

"MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS!" A few weeks ago, I did a sermon on opinions. My first point was about people who are opinionated. I talked about those who interject themselves into conversations they weren't invited in to offer their unsolicited opinion. When we do things like that, people ...read more

Passing Through

Contributed by Larry Grant on Jun 5, 2022

Today we look at another Deacon who never identifies himself as a Deacon; We must consider this Evangelist who never identifies himself as a Preacher; the bible says of him only that he was filled with the Holy Ghost and today that he is just passing through!

Acts 8:35-40 (NKJV) “Passing Through” June 5, 2022 This is not our home, we are just passing through! In John 15, Jesus said that “we are not of the world,” because He chose us out of the world! Peter said we are “strangers and pilgrims!” in this world (1 Peter 2:11). Paul said in ...read more

Alternate Theory Of Creation No. 4 -Progressive Creationism

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on May 25, 2023

This is the last of four messages on the alternatives of creation often presented to skeptics and the scientific community apart from what is described in Genesis 1. This final message deals with "progressive creationism", another example of the futility of man's "wisdom".

We have looked at four alternative theories that some Christians use to either defend or explain to a skeptical world how everything came into being instead of what is clearly presented in Genesis 1. The world system took advantage of our withdrawal from the scientific community soon after the ...read more

Return To The Gold Standard

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jun 6, 2023

"Doing to others as you would have them do to you" is another way of saying "Love your neighbor as yourself," which isn't easy. Love seeks their long term good, not their short term happiness.

About 50 years before Jesus’ time, two famous rabbis were competing for the future of Judaism. One, Rabbi Shammai, was an engineer known for the strictness of his views. The Talmud - that is, the authoritative commentary on the Hebrew scriptures - tells that a gentile came to Shammai and told him ...read more
