     | 5,332 views

    In this message I would like to bring before my readership, one definite attribute in the Almighty, which at once evokes awe in me that is …He is a Faithful One. One may well say that His signature of faithfulness is seen vividly in all of His dealings with men beginning right with Adam.

    THE FAITHFUL ONE Know therefore that the LORD your God is God, the faithful God who keeps covenant… Deu 7:9 First things first (Let me forewarn the readership that Alphabet “F” would be used frequently in this message…sic). What is the chief and highest ...read more

    The Third Commandment reminds us to honor God in our manner of worship and living. We are to worship and live in reverence and humility, not misusing God's name, for His name means salvation to those who believe.

    “Revering God’s Name” Exodus 20:7 We have been studying some of the threads of the Gospel in the Old Testament as the Drama of God’s salvation has unfolded throughout history. We are looking at the Ten Commandments and today we examine the third commandment from Exodus ...read more

     | 10,114 views

    The gong is only mentioned once in all of scripture. Why would Paul use it to start the famous "Love Chapter" and what warning does it contain for us today? (This sermon was preached as part of the series by this name preached by Jeff Strite.)

    Dearly Beloved, we have gathered here today to celebrate the love…is often the words we hear preceding the reading of 1 Corinthians 13. It is good that we read what has come to be known as the Love Chapter at a wedding, because it reminds us as we are uniting a couple in love for the rest of their ...read more

    What Is The Church? Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Dec 25, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,910 views

    When you read the word church in your English Bible it is a translation of the Greek word ekklesia. The literal meaning is those who are called out. The general use in Greek was to express the idea of an assembly.

    You are most likely familiar with the children’s hand motion and rhyme to learn about church. Here is the church, here is the steeple, open the door and see all the people. Well, when we really understand church we say, here is the building and here is the steeple, open the door and see the ...read more

    Is The Lord Delayed In His Coming?

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Aug 6, 2018
     | 5,626 views

    There is a wrong way and a right way to look at the Lord’s apparent delay in coming again.

If 1 Peter has as its main focus a defense against threats from outside the ...read more

    Introduction: Mary Magdalene was one of the women who followed Jesus during His earthly ministry. Jesus had cast seven demons out of her at an earlier time (Luke 7-8:2) so no doubt she would be grateful for that miracle. She was there when the Lord’s body was laid in the tomb (Mark 15:40-47) and ...read more

    Each of us lives in our own Bethany in a manner of speaking. And our Bethany is determined by whether we are allowing Jesus to come in, or we have too much life to give him time to give us even more life.

    Too Much Life Sunday, March 26, 2023 Bethany was a little town just about 2 miles from the gates of Jerusalem and during his earthly ministry it became a favorite place for Jesus to stop as he traveled.
