Beyond The Numbers: Understanding God's Economy

Go! And Live What Jesus Expected - Revelation 3:15-16 Series

Contributed by Dean Courtier on May 5, 2025

Biblical obedience. Daily surrender. Sacrificial love. Passionate evangelism. Unashamed holiness. These are not lofty, elite-level Christian goals—they are the standard Jesus set. The normal Christian life, in Jesus’ eyes, is anything but lukewarm.

Go! And Live What Jesus Expected Revelation 3:15-16 (NLT): "I know all the things you do, that you are neither hot nor cold. I wish that you were one or the other! But since you are like lukewarm water, neither hot nor cold, I will spit you out of my mouth!" Introduction: Setting the ...read more

Are You Good Enough?

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on May 19, 2025

Jesus met a young man who thought he kept the entire Law. Most people believe they are going to heaven when they die, and they base their conclusion on being a morally good person. But, is anyone really good enough to go to heaven?

I have entitled our message this morning “Are You Good Enough?” And the question for us to consider today is this: “Is anyone good enough to go to heaven?” An article from the Los Angeles Times says, “An overwhelming majority of Americans continue to believe that there is life after death and ...read more

Is Baptism Necessary For Salvation?

Contributed by Colin Mcgeer on Jul 21, 2023

Baptism to be fully immersed in water. As the Israelites escaped Egypt through the Red Sea, our old man dies, and we are raised into newness of Life in Christ Jesus. Our old man is buried, and we live in resurrection life.

How many of us remember when we were Baptized, fully emersed in water? I remember the day I was baptized. At that time in my life, I had grown up in a church that christened Children. My parents had me christened as a child. Our church practiced infant baptism called Christening due to their ...read more

The Great Apostasy Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Aug 8, 2023

Study #2: When we look around us, it seems that more and more people are leaving the church. Why? This passage of Scripture explains the reason why, and alerts us to a trend that will occur just before the Rapture.

NOTE: This Bible study on the end times comes from the perspective of a pre-tribulation Rapture. Before we talk about the Rapture, we need to look at something called “The Great Apostacy.” In Hebrews 10:23-25, we read, “Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who ...read more

Sermon # 31 - Worship God Alone & Honor Your Parents Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Aug 16, 2023

We are commanded to worship God alone giving Him the top priority in our lives, and also to honor our parents, if we want God’s blessings to be showered on us. Let’s choose to obey God’s word so we don’t miss out on His blessings

We are studying in detail about blessings and curses to fathom all that the word of God has to convey about this. There are so many who are held down by several curses that overrule their lives thereby not being able to experience the true blessings that God has envisioned for them. As we delve ...read more
