    The Sin That Wants God

    Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 10, 2025
     | 103 views

    Cain sought God’s favor without surrender, but Christ’s blood still speaks—calling every heart from self-made worship to obedient, Spirit-filled revival.

    The Conflict at the Altar Every human being builds an altar. Some offer obedience; some offer opinion. Every life lifts something before God—work, worship, wealth, reputation—and waits for fire to fall. That is where the story of Cain and Abel begins: two brothers, two altars, two hearts, one ...read more

    How to Fight Temptation James 1:12-18 Mark Anthony was known as the silver-throated orator of Rome. He was a brilliant man, strong leader, and a courageous soldier.

    The Apostle Peter will show us that there are five things that keep us lion alert.

    How Can I Live a “Lion Alert” Life? 1 Peter 5: 5-14 Introduction “In the jungle, the mighty jungle the lion sleeps tonight.” Do you recognize that once popular song? While it is true that most lions sleep from time to time, in our sermon text the Apostle Peter speaks of a lion that never snoozes. ...read more

    Where is God in change?

    “Generations come and go but it makes no difference. The sun rises and sets and hurries around to rise again. The wind blows south and north, here and there, twisting back and forth, getting nowhere. The rivers run into the sea but the sea is never full, and the water returns again to the ...read more

    Seven Deadly Sins

    With the announcement of the Vatican that they were adding to the Seven Deadly Sins I thought it would be a good time to look at sin.

    Has anyone been following the series in the Chronicle on the “Seven Deadly Sins?” It started last Saturday along with a report that the Catholic Church had modified the original list and added 7 more. Not sure that I necessarily agree with their selection of new “Sins” or even in their decision ...read more

    Give Sin No Quarter

     | 1,127 views

    We fight sin in our lives and in the life of the nation.

    Perry’s Scope 9 Give Sin No Quarter For years I have heard Christians are to draw a parallel to heaven with the Hebrews’ entrance into Canaan. Songs like “On Jordan’s Stormy Banks I Stand” reinforce this idea. The first stanza of the song reads: On Jordan's stormy banks I stand, and cast a ...read more

    Your Enemy The devil Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Feb 24, 2022
     | 4,607 views

    We are not fighting in spiritual warfare so that Christ may ultimately win. Christ already won. The victory came on resurrection morning. You can triumph over your enemy the devil because Jesus triumphed.

    When I was a senior in high school I played on an undefeated football team. Our first three games we outscored our opponents 130-0. But we had to be careful. When the game went on to the fourth quarter the other team knew they could not win. That’s when cheap shots were common. The losing team was ...read more

     | 1,787 views

    Paul and the other apostles refused to obey commands from people in authority to stop preaching the gospel, for instance (Acts 5:27–29). They did, however, submit to those in authority in all matters that were not in contradiction to the will of God.

    The call to living a holy lifestyle as a Christian Non-Conformist

    1And so, dear brothers and sisters, I plead with you to give your bodies to God because of all he has done for you. Let them be a living and holy sacrifice—the kind he will find acceptable.

    A LION WANTS TO EAT YOU

    The Nature of Our Enemy One of the foremost rules of warfare is: know your enemy.

    Breaking The Cycle Of Sin Series

    Contributed by Manny Salva Cruz on Feb 1, 2016
     | 11,950 views

    We have the tendency to commit sin, then repent, then give our devotion to God, then when all is well, we sin again and we fall into bondage. This is the experience of Israel in the Book of Judges. Only Jesus can break this bondage of sin.

    Judges 2:18-19 (NIV) " 18 Whenever the Lord raised up a judge for them, he was with the judge and saved them out of the hands of their enemies as long as the judge lived; for the Lord relented because of their groaning under those who oppressed and afflicted them. 19 But when the judge died, the ...read more
