Salvation And Repentance Series

Contributed by Brett Crosson on Jun 25, 2019

For a person to come to Christ they must repent of their sins. This message encourages people to repent.

WHAT IS REPENTANCE? 1. Repentance is more than ‘sorrow for sin’. If I were caught for speeding and given a heavy fine, I would be very sorry, but that would not prove my repentance. I might just be sorry I got caught! 2. Repentance, instead, would mean sorrow for a good and wise law that I had ...read more

Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Nov 7, 2017

A look at the reliability of Dreams versus the written Word of God

"It's Time To Flip The Script”

Contributed by Bryan Beverly on Feb 17, 2015

This message reminds us that Christ wants us to emphasize giving vis-a-vis taking. The Lex Talionis (Exodus 21:18-36, Leviticus 24:17-21 and Deuteronomy 19:15-21) said 'Don't take too much". But Jesus' message (Luke 6:27-29) was "Don't give too little".

38“You have heard that it was said, ‘An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.’ 39 But I say to you, Do not resist an evildoer. But if anyone strikes you on the right cheek, turn the other also; 40 and if anyone wants to sue you and take your coat, give your cloak as well; 41 and ...read more

Do We Want To Be Like Other Nations?

Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Jan 17, 2017

The Bible points us to a time when Israel wanted to be like other nations. We see in their actions ancient facts ...read more
