    Our nation’s only hope is Divine intervention! Scripture says that the heart of the king is in the hand of the Lord. The Lord Jesus Christ is King of kings and Lord of Lords.

    An Ascension Gift Basket For You!

    Contributed by Michael Otterstatter on May 22, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 20,241 views

    Although the Bible doesn’t call it a “gift basket” it does use the word “gifts” in connection with our Savior’s ascension into heaven. Because of Jesus' ascension we receive many gifts. In Luke's account of the ascension we notice three.

    We call them “gift baskets.” They might be for holidays like Christmas or Easter. Or they may be given for someone’s birthday, or perhaps an anniversary. Now as you think of gift baskets what makes them different from other gifts? Although perhaps you can think of many more things that make ...read more

    This is a great children's story. But as adults, it prompts some difficult questions. Is it even true? How could God destroy an entire city? It's also a wonderful example of God's people overcoming a seemingly-insurmountable obstacle through faith and obedience.

    JOSHUA AND THE WALLS OF JERICHO INTRODUCTION We’re moving from our series on prayer to a new series called ‘Bible Stories for Grown-Ups.’ There are some famous stories in the Old Testament which we may have heard as children, perhaps at home or at Sunday School. In this series the idea is to ...read more

    A Second Chance For The Human Race

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jan 22, 2016
    based on 5 ratings
     | 5,036 views

    Adam, son of God, failed in the Garden. Israel, son of God, rebelled in the wilderness. Jesus the Son of God, on behalf of us all, won the battle against temptation in the wilderness. Believers in Jesus are also called sons of God, so how must we live?

    A SECOND CHANCE FOR THE HUMAN RACE. Luke 4:1-13. Man was always going to get a second chance after the Fall of Adam. God made a promise concerning the seed of the woman (Genesis 3:15), and ‘that seed was Christ’ (cf. Galatians 3:16; Galatians 3:29). We see in the temptation of Jesus a new Adam ...read more

    Does The Virgin Birth Matter?

    Contributed by David Owens on Dec 18, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,762 views

    (I borrowed a lot of this sermon from a sermon written by Tommy South) Skeptics make fun of the virgin birth and some believers are embarrassed by it and think it should be dropped. I believe that the virgin birth matters a great deal and we must believe it and proclaim it.

    Introduction: A. Once there was a Sunday school teacher who asked her class of kindergarteners to draw a picture of the manger scene when Jesus was born in Bethlehem. 1. All the children went to work immediately on their pictures. 2. As the teacher moved from student to student looking at their ...read more
