What You Were, What You Are Series

Contributed by Nickolas Kooi on Jun 22, 2017

It is interesting to see what we once were and to compare it with what we are. Paul does that in Romans 6 as he says we once were slaves to sin, but now are slaves to righteousness.

Flipping through old photo albums, or even Facebook photos, can be a very interesting thing. It is neat to see what you were compared to what you are now. It can be interesting to see how you used to look and dress compared to how you do currently. Sometimes it can make you say, “What was I ...read more

Dead Man Walking

Contributed by J Jeffrey Smead on Jun 25, 2017

In some of the Prisons in the United States when a prisoner is taken to be executed the guard that is leading the procession continual shouts out, Dead man walking. Death came to us through sin; causing each human being to be a "Dead Man Walking"!

Breaking Free From Sin

Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Jun 25, 2017

God through the Apostle Paul gives us an outline for breaking free from sin: 1) Remember who we are (dead to sin, alive in Christ), 2) Say no to temptation, and 3) Say yes to God. Dead people don't sin! With God's help, we can obey rather than sin.

Breaking Free from Sin - Romans 6:1-13 “Dear God, you’re really going to be proud of me! I haven't gossiped, lusted, or lost my temper today. I haven't been greedy, grumpy, nasty, selfish, or overindulgent. I'm very happy about that! But in a few minutes, I'm going to get out of ...read more

You Are A Slave The Question Is To Whom

Contributed by J Jeffrey Smead on Jul 4, 2017

The Scriptures are clear: We are either a slave to sin or we are a slave to righteousness. The opposite of rejecting God is not a freedom to be in charge of your own life. If you are not a slave to Righteousness you are a slave to SIN!

Liberty And Responsibility

Contributed by Thomas Clawser on Jul 5, 2017

Jesus’ death and resurrection frees us from sin. Liberty breeds responsibility, the basis for seeking and submitting to God’s plan.

In the last days of the Civil War, the Confederate capital, Richmond, Virginia, fell to the Union army. Abraham Lincoln insisted on visiting the city. Even though no one knew he was coming, slaves recognized him immediately and thronged around him. He had liberated them by the Emancipation ...read more

Water Baptism

Contributed by Pastor Renji George on Aug 18, 2024

But the baptism in the Holy Spirit is not a substitute for Water Baptism. Neither is Water Baptism a substitute for the baptism in the Holy Spirit. They are two separate but complementary provisions of God for every person who comes to faith in Jesus Christ.

“Go ye therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit: teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world.” (Matthew 28:19-20) We learn ...read more

To walk in newness Believers are walking dead people who are alive.

THE MASTER OF MY LIFE IN CHRIST The choices we make in life define us and determine our future. At some point in our lives we who gather here to worship the Lord made the same choice Joshua made long ago, “As for me and my ...read more

Speak To Your Dry Bones

Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Oct 22, 2019

In Ezekiel 37, God shows us that what we see here in the natural has its beginnings in the realm of the spirit. And we bring those things from the spirit into the natural by the words we speak.

Turn with me to Ezekiel 37. We know that confessing the Word is what we’re supposed to do as God’s sons and daughters. As I was thinking about this, God brought to mind Genesis 1 where God speaks and in Exodus where God told Moses to tell Aaron to speak. For me there are three passages of ...read more
