     | 2,415 views

    God's Word is absolute. The Word of God is final. And His Word is binding, and it is truth! There is a reckoning at hand. It's the reckoning of God. And it is a reckoning of the sinful ways of this world and how we have literally pushed God out of our lives and our countries.

    God's Word is absolute. The Word of God is final. And His Word is binding, and it is truth! Malachi 3:6 says, "For I am the Lord, I change not;" Hebrews 13:8, "Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever." John 14:9, "...he that hath seen me hath ...read more

    What God Values Most Part 1 Series

    Contributed by Rodney V Johnson on Dec 2, 2022
     | 5,453 views

    This message is about value. Many believe that they are worthless and have no value at all based on life's circumstances but that is simply not true. God values each of us and has said so in His Word.

    What God Values Most Scripture: Luke 12:6-7, Proverbs 27:21; Romans 8:2 In the twelfth chapter of the book of Luke, Jesus discussed with His disciples the depth of God’s knowledge of us and why we should not fear men or worry about the things of this life.

    This is the third sermon I preached in this series. We find a challenge issued by the Holy Spirit through the Apostle John which helps us see how to fulfill the Great Commandments “Love God and Love Others” and the Great Commission.

    Text: 1 John 4:1-11 (1) Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.

    While the Philippians wanted to know how Paul was doing so that they might further provide aid to help reduce his suffering, Paul wanted his “partner” to know that while he was in chains, the word of God certainly was not being restricted!

     | 2,683 views

    This sermon deals with Peter’s three denials of Jesus and how easy it can become for us to deny Christ by wanting to fit in with the crowd around us. More than ever believers need to refuse to compromise their faith.
