    Message regarding how to have spiritual independence. Given on the Sunday before Independence Day 2006.

    Real Independence John 8:31-36 July 2, 2006 Introduction Well, in case you’re not aware of it, the 4th of July, Independence Day is on Tuesday.

    Like father, like son. Yes it is true; however, we know that God supplies grace to break generational curses. Jesus desires us to be God’s children.

    Who’s Your Daddy? Three of every 10 births in the U. S. were to unwed mothers, according to a new report to Congress commissioned by the Department of Health and Human Services. Out-of-wedlock childbearing is on the rise for adults as well as teenagers, and for women of all races. One social ...read more

    Whose child are you?

    I certainly do not want to imply any disrespect for one of the greatest hymn writers of the church; Charles Wesley, who gave us, among many others, such grand tributes to the majesty of God as “And Can it Be”, and “Christ the Lord is Risen Today” and “O, For a Thousand Tongues to Sing”.

    How do you decide when is the right time to tell the truth and when is the right time to keep silent?

    I sometimes wonder whether God has structured these ten commandments with the most obvious sins first and the least obvious or most subtle at the end. Or is it just that our age has become blind to the last couple of commandments? Truth is a difficult concept in this day and age isn’t it? ...read more

    This was an Independence Day message. A nation is only as free as its citizens, and if they are in bondage to sin so is the nation. This message is intended to stress the necissity to be set free from sin. Only then shall we be free indeed.

    THE DECLARATION OF ETERNAL INDEPENDENCE John 8:31-36 INTRODUCTION: A. The Pledge of Allegiance B. Many came to the Americas to find freedom but after many years of injustice and indignities brought about by King George the III the colonists had had enough. 1. The citizens of the ...read more

    We say we believe, but are those just empty words? It seems the Jewish believers Jesus is addressing in this Scripture believe with their lips but not their heart.

    A group hunters from the lower 48 hire a float plane and fly out into the Alaska bush to go caribou hunting, just as they did the year before. During their hunt, they are successful, and take 6 large caribou. As the pilot returns to pick them up, he tells the men that only 4 caribou can come on the ...read more

    Jesus said that Satan is the "father of lies." This sermon focuses on one of Satan’s biggest lies.

    Misconceptions about Satan: • He does not have horns. • He does not carry a pitchfork. • He does not wear a red suit. In popular culture, the devil is often presented as a humorous character (example: Capital One commercial). • He has never been in hell. “...the eternal fire prepared for the devil ...read more

    If the Son sets you free, you are free indeed. Yet, there is a reason for our freedom.

    To the Jews who had believed him, Jesus said, “If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples. Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” They answered him, “We are Abraham’s descendants and have never been slaves of anyone. How can you say that we shall be set ...read more
