     | 1,211 views

    We must build Gods way, not Mans way. God is asking His church to come back to the altar

    (1Kings 18:30 ) 31 Elijah took twelve stones, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob, to whom the word of the LORD came, saying, “Israel shall be your name”; 32 with the stones he built an altar in the name of the LORD. Then he made a trench around the altar, large enough ...read more

    The result of the Holy Spirit’s arrival as a gift to humanity is a turning point in history. It not only birthed the church, but it set the disciples on a path of dedicated witnessing for Christ.

    Greetings To The Church Series

     | 4,581 views

    Paul's welcome in Thessalonica was less than favorable. Although he had been ill-treated while there, being forced to flee for fear of harm, his commitment and love for the church never diminished.

    Greetings to the Church 1 Thessalonians 1: 1-4 In the book of Acts we discover Paul receiving the Macedonian call, Acts 16: 8-10. This led Paul initially to Philippi and then on to Thessalonica. In that day, Thessalonica was the prominent seaport and capital city of the Roman province of ...read more

    Jesus came to heal those sick with sin. That means the church is meant to be a hospital for those weighed down with guilt. But what can a church do better heal those lost in their shame?

    A Russian soldier was wounded and was ordered to go to military hospital for treatment. When he arrived he found two doors: One was marked, ‘For the slightly wounded,’ and the other, ‘For the seriously wounded’. Well, he wasn’t seriously wounded so he entered through the first door and found ...read more

    The Dead Church

     | 3,918 views

    Many churches all over the world are dead churches. Why? Because they have forsaken the Gospel of Jesus Christ. They are still living on past victories and faded glory from long past. They are not living the daily life with Christ the Lord and as such, have now grown cold to the Gospel.

    Please turn in your Bibles to Revelation Chapter 3, as today we are going to look at verses 1-6, Jesus’ warning to the church at Sardis. John MacArthur, in his exposition of these verses, used an illustration that has stuck with me. I would like to begin with it. He talked about the phenomenon ...read more

     | 1,898 views

    We have folks today who actually seem shocked that God’s church has problems.

    For example, some are shocked that the members of a church act less than perfect. Listen, I am shocked that they are shocked! Anytime you deal with humans, you have to keep in mind that the only perfect person who walked on this earth was the Lord Jesus, and imperfect people crucified Him! We ...read more

    Today I want to talk about the two most important responsibilities in the church.

    Illus: An unknown person wrote a letter to the editor of the newspaper and complained that it made no sense to go to church every Sunday. The complainer said, "I've gone for 30 years now," he wrote, "and in that time I have heard something like 3,000 sermons. But for the life of ...read more

    Mark 13:35-37 KJV "Watch ye therefore: for ye know not when the master of the house cometh, at even, or at midnight, or at the cockcrowing, or in the morning: lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping. And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch."

    i was wheeling (driving) my children to school when this call kept coming. It was John, one of my church members. I parked to answer this persistent call. John was panting, as he spoke. "John, what exactly is the problem and please calm down? He kept shouting, "it had happened, please ...read more

    Is it important for us to be discerning of false teachers and doctrine? What should we learn from the Bereans on this topic and how should we respond to those who teach false doctrine?

    Dr. Bradford Reaves Crossway Christian Fellowship Hagerstown, MD www.mycrossway.org Introduction Over the last several weeks in our study of Revelation, we have been looking at the world religious system that will be used by the Antichrist in his effort to oppose God, demand global worship, and ...read more

     | 2,312 views

    The one verse before us speaks volumes of what the church at Corinth was like. These problems spring from one common cause – a lack of love!

    THE LOVESICK CHURCH II CORINTHIANS 12:20 INTRODUCTION: Reihold Niebuhr once compared the church to Noah’s Ark. He said, “If it wasn’t for the storm on the outside one could not stand the stink on the inside.” The one verse before us speaks volumes of what the church at Corinth was like. ...read more

    The Need Of The Church Series

    Contributed by Grant Adams on Feb 8, 2020
     | 3,943 views

    If you sat down and asked what does the church need today, what would be your answer? A lot of times we think of the material things, but God is more interested in the people that make up the church. What are the needs of the people? I hope to answer that question for us all.

    The 2nd and 3rd chapters of Revelation, tell us of real churches in real places. These churches also are representative of different ages of church history. The Laodicean church is a description of this church age. The church that is neither cold nor hot. A church that was rich and said it had need ...read more
