    The righteous LORD draws nigh unto all that call upon Him.

     | 2,085 views

    Third in the series based on the "Fruits of the Spirit". Being Good is not the same as "goodness". Goodness is about the character trait of righteousness.

    In Jesus Holy Name October 10, 2021 Text: Galatians 5:22-23 “A Fruit Called Goodness” 3rd in the series All week I was wondering if this is a foolish topic. Every parent, every grandparent, every teacher knows what it means to be “good”. To be “good” is simply ...read more

     | 2,764 views

    "This story has resonated with countless hearts across generations, and it continues to do so because it speaks to the very essence of the human experience – our capacity for both rebellion and redemption, for wandering away and finding our way back."

    Introduction: Dear brothers and sisters, today we will study on a profound journey through the pages of Scripture—a journey that unveils the depth of God's forgiveness and exposes two critical aspects of human nature: the sin of self-dependency, as embodied by the younger son, and the sin of ...read more

    There is a war going on between our flesh and the Holy Spirit. And our behavior shows which of the two is winning.

    Passage: I Corinthians 3:1-9 Intro: It’s sad to watch someone who has deceived themselves. 1. people who talk the talk, but can’t walk the walk. 2. the Taliban and Iraqi fighters, so full of bravado one week, lining up to hand over their weapons the next. 3. some football teams, staking their ...read more

     | 5,317 views

    To understand the significance of THEREFORE in Romans 12:1, we need to connect the dots between belief and behavior.

    During the past several weeks, God has impressed upon me the wonder and the joy of Christian community. Lots of good things have been happening in the life of this congregation. I know I can’t put it all together in one complete picture, but I’d like to just remind us that God is doing a ...read more

    Obedience, with a big “O” isn’t how we behave. Behavior is like obedience with a little “o”.

    Obedience, with a big “O” isn’t how we behave. We talked about behavior a few weeks ago (Purpose Issue 16). Behavior is like obedience with a little “o”. It’s acting how we know we’re supposed to act everyday. It’s what most of us think the two greatest commandments, “Love the Lord your God with ...read more

    based on 6 ratings
     | 28,721 views

    The focus is humility in prayer out of a realization that righteousness can not be reached by means of our own efforts. Prayers are heard & answered because of God's mercy not because of our self-justifying merits.

    There Are No Advantages To Sin

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jul 27, 2021
     | 2,122 views

    The Scriptures are filled with illustrations of people who learned the hard way and oftentimes too late that sinful actions carry a high price and prove to be of no advantage to anyone. What, then, is your excuse?

    The Bible has never been shy or unapologetic when it comes to exposing the sins, deceit, and wickedness of fallen humanity and our war against the righteousness and holiness of God. The Bible is open and blunt about the penalty for sin, but has also shown that the Lord God is not willing that ...read more
