    Gambling Series

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Oct 23, 2012
     | 6,293 views

    Is the prohibition of gambling in the Covenant of Christian Conduct just a legalistic rule or a natural outflow of loving God completely and love others as ourselves?

    A year or so ago we took several months to review the sixteen Articles of Faith found in the Manual of the Church of The Nazarene. These subjects included what we believe about the Triune God, Jesus, the Holy Spirit, the Holy Scriptures, Sin, Atonement, Salvation, the Church, the Sacraments, the ...read more

    The Bible says that our love for our enemies is proof that we are believers in Christ.

    One of the more famous stories in all of literature comes from the earliest parts of our Bible. Cain and Abel, the children of Adam and Eve, are in conflict Cain actually murders Abel. God quickly confronts Cain with these words: “Where is Abel your brother?” He said, “I do not know; am I my ...read more

    Walk By Faith By Pastor John Mateos Ong

    Contributed by John Ong on Dec 5, 2017
     | 4,953 views

    As the Bible said in Deuteronomy 7:9, He keeps His covenant of love to thousands of generation for those who love and keep his commandments. So if we strive to keep our faith to Him, if we walk by faith with Him, we will be more like Him each day.

    Take a moment to imagine if God was like some of the world’s worst leaders, those who killed someone that doesn’t obey them or their program. Can we just imagine if God was like Hitler who killed almost all of the Jews, or like Mao Tse Tung who does not only manipulated and tricked his people just ...read more

    Grace Transforms 4 Series

    Contributed by Dan Cormie on Oct 1, 2011
     | 3,244 views

    I know I need to change, I am painfully aware of the chasm between what I am in Christ and how I appear to be but all of my diligent effort actually takes me in the opposite direction. Rules do not produce obedient hearts; rules breed rebellion.

    Dakota Community Church October 2, 2011 Grace Transforms 4 Ephesians 2:8 For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God not by works, so that no one can boast. 1. What is biblical grace? 2. Where does grace originate? 3. Grace ...read more

    The Proper Place Of Tradition

     | 699 views

    Jesus teaches that traditional rules and Laws can't provide salvation and can be dangerous because they can lead to hypocrisy.

    We all know the comfort that tradition can bring us. Family traditions over the holidays, birthdays Church traditions - singing hymns, Candlelight Christmas eve services, The way we have always done it.

    Dealing with the healing of a blind man Jesus confronts the bad theology of the Pharisees. Jesus speaks of love and healing in the face of legalism and rules.

    God promises and provides great encouragements to keep hope in times of trouble.

    Scripture Introduction Charles Wesley’s hymn, Hark! The Herald-Angels Sing is a favorite Christmas song, though it required some tinkering to get there.

    God doesn't want us to walk in fear, but to trust Jesus and let the peace of God rule in our hearts.

    FROM FEAR TO FAITH A. The Nature of fear 1. Fear is the emotion brought on by a perceived danger or threat, real or perceived. 2. Fear is a good emotion to warn us, but on the negative side can also be debilitating, paralyzing, controlling and can bind us up. 3. There is also a spiritual ...read more

    Leaving Heaven

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 25, 2024
     | 677 views

    To think of Jesus in such a light seems almost irreverent. There’s something about keeping Him divine that keeps Him distant and predictable.

    Summary: God in all of His wisdom hid the real date of His Son’s birthday and even His physical attributes ... “She will bring a Son to birth, and when she does, you, Joseph, will name Him Jesus--'God saves'--because He will save His people from their sins." (Msg.) v.22-23 “All of ...read more

    Hebrews 13 contains several life lessons we should have learned a long time ago, but need reminders on from time to time. From friends to marriage partners, Hebrews shows us what is really important.

    Hebrews 13:1-8 Things I Should Have Learned in Kindergarten Robert Fulghum wrote a popular book a while back entitled, “All I Really Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten.” I thought of that title when I read today’s scripture. It seems like a list of very important but mostly common sense ...read more
