    What Is It Going To Be - Abiding Or Blacksliding? 1 John 2 V 28-29 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Aug 5, 2022
     | 1,747 views

    It’s sad Christians live deficient lives when God has supplied all that's needed. Some say they have no direction; don't feel like partaking of spiritual things; careless about their walk. The problem often is the neglect of Godly resources - the word of God, prayer, and fellowship.

    MESSAGE – WHAT IS IT GOING TO BE - ABIDING OR BLACKSLIDING? 1 John 2 v 28-29 1John 2 v 28 Now, little children, abide in Him so that when He appears, we may have confidence and not shrink away from Him in shame at His coming. 1John 2 v 29 If you know that He is righteous, you know that everyone ...read more

    It may seem impossible to please a perfect, all-knowing, holy God but there is a way, & that way is faith. The actions of these OT saints shows that faith pleases God & that He rewards all those who seek & follow Him by faith.

    HEBREWS 11:4-7 FAITH THAT PLEASES GOD [LEAVING A LEGACY SERIES] [Genesis 4:3-7; 6:13-20; Genesis 5:21–24] The author now encourages his readers further by reminding them of examples of faith in earlier days. In O.T. times, he points out, there were many men and women who had nothing but the ...read more

     | 2,500 views

    The intensity of God’s love is immense, that love which GAVE heaven’s glorious Son. Then that love provided the means where sinners can be MADE into the children of God. Are you prepared for rejection for Christ, for the world hates Christ’s own?

    THE GREATNESS OF GOD’S LOVE GAVE AND MADE - 1John 3:1-3 1John 3 v 1 See how great a love the Father has bestowed upon us that we should be called children of God, and such we are. For this reason the world does not know us because it did not know Him. 1John 3:2 Beloved, now we are children of ...read more

    If there is no resurrection, then the crucifixion of Christ didn’t achieve anything for us, and we are still in our sins but there is a resurrection, not only for Christ but also for us as well.

    Genesis 1:1. It is said that if you can get through the first verse of the Bible, you can read and believe the rest. Do you believe in God? If so, why? How do I know God exists?

    One of the simplest stories in the Bible seems to be one of the hardest stories for some to believe. One of the famous men that doubted the Biblical creation story was a man named Charles Darwin, who died in April of 1882. Through Darwin’s studies he determined that man was not created by God, as ...read more

    We have access to resources far more powerful than the internet. Yet, we choose instead to trust our wisdom and our ability.

    Technology can be an amazing instrument when we need help. I needed to install a new cabin filter in my car and I wanted to make sure I did it correctly. So, I searched YouTube and it gave me step by step instructions of how to do it. Through the internet, we have pretty much a direct line to ...read more

    We need to be aware of the spiritual battle that takes place every time we pray.

    In January 1944, the US army created the ghost army. Their purpose was to trick the forces of Nazi Germany about the size and location of the allied forces. The ghost army would inflate rubber tanks, jeeps, trucks, and all other kinds of armaments and camouflage them so well that Nazi air patrols ...read more

    Do you ever get tired? Weary? Ready for life to slow down? Perhaps you need peace inside. Hebrews 4 is written to some people who were tired. They were ready to give up on Jesus, and perhaps life all together. Where do we find rest?

    Christmas is coming! Did you know that its only 57 days away? Any of you have your Christmas tree up yet? I wondered when the earliest day it is appropriate to put up your Christmas tree.
