Dealing With The Devil

Contributed by Greg Nance on Apr 1, 2012

God's word shows us that Jesus came to destroy the works of the devil. Satan is our enemy. We know him only too well. Who we need desparately to know is Jesus, so that we can deal with the devil and have victory over him and his lies.

Many of you spoke with me last week about how important it is to know more about our enemy, the devil. There is a need to know our enemy, as Heath Smith reminded me, and it is clear from scripture as Jesus tells us, "We need to be as wise as serpents and as harmless as doves." (Matt. 10:16) Paul ...read more

Effective Christianity

Contributed by Scott Fields on Oct 9, 2013

Why is Christianity in America declining? Why are professions of faith and baptisms on the decline. Christianity is not a religion but a relationship. Church is not a place we go or something we do it is God's people doing His will.

I have a very serious question to start us off with this morning. Why is Christianity on the decline here in America? I am sure there are probably as many answers as there are people. • Could it be because Christianity is competing with so many other religions? • Could it be because ...read more

Contributed by Jerry Flury on Nov 10, 2013

Thirty-nine times John uses the word “know” in his first letter, to addresses this matter of uncertainty and to declare that you and I can have a “know so” salvation.
