     | 1,181 views

    There is a war on today. It's not a war of guns or bombs, but a war of ideas. The war is about worldview. The war is about the course of human history. The war is about religion and the eviction of God from modern society.

    This sermon explores why standing up for Jesus Christ in an increasingly secular society and how we can courageously live out our faith in a God-honoring way.

    Introduction In today's world, where secularism seems to be on the rise and religious beliefs are increasingly marginalized, standing up for Jesus has never been more crucial.

    The Land Of The Midnight Sun Series

    Our culture has lived in sheer optimism, but that time is fading. We must seize the opportunity to minister while it is here; and if we do so, we will see bountiful rewards.

    My besetting sin, if you must know, is procrastination. Never do today what you can put off until tomorrow, for somehow tomorrow always seems to be even more than only a day away. It seems to be an eternity away, and so what if I do not do today what my To-Do list says I am to do? Who will know ...read more

     | 4,697 views

    CHRISTMAS has been hijacked in America. And unlike the latest Tim Allen movie, it’s not Santa who needs to be rescued. It’s the very meaning of Christmas itself.

    This week, we begin a new series titled, "Christmas Through the Ages." Beginning with the current celebration of Christmas, we will travel back in time, looking at Christmas celebrations, until we arrive at the very first Christmas. Today we begin with Christmas 2013 - A Hijacked Holiday." What ...read more

    What Manner Of Person Ought Ye To Be

     | 3,030 views

    Why did Peter say, “Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be...”

    Let me show you. These words appear in Peter’s great chapter on the second coming of Christ. Peter was telling us some of the things that would occur before Christ’s second coming. -In verses 3-4 he tells us there will be scoffers. We read, “Knowing this first, that there shall come in the ...read more

    Jesus Among Secular Gods, Part 4 - Killing The Imago Dei: Answering The Questions Of Relativism & Secular Humanism Series

    Contributed by Dr. Bradford Reaves on Nov 4, 2019
     | 2,546 views

    Part 4 based on the book by Ravi Zacharias and Vince Vitale: Secular humanism believes we can look to human advancement for justice, peace, and the end of suffering. In sharp contrast, Christianity teaches that the only way for us to truly live is to remove ourselves from the equation.

    Humanism (also known as progressivism) is based on relativism and the idea that human advancement is the solution to injustice, war, and suffering. Like most worldly reasoning or false teachings in the church, there some truth in this reasoning. The Christian and Biblical world-view that God uses ...read more

    The Christian faith holds the answers to questions people have about life's meaning. If we hold this to be the truth, then the burden is on us to understand our faith, have meaningful conversations with those who do not, and defend our faith with those who have questions.

    It’s a strange thing: the book has never been so accessible. According to Guinness Book of Records, L. Ron Hubbard’s writings of Scientology have been translated into 65 languages; the Koran is supposed to be read in Arabic, so it hasn’t been translated as much; the Book of Mormon is in about 100 ...read more

    Zechariah's prophecy points out the importance of not compartmentalizing our lives into the secular and the sacred.

    In a sense, this morning marks the end of a journey that we began last July in the book of Joel and which has made its way through Amos, Isaiah, Obadiah, Habakkuk, Zephaniah, Daniel, Ezekiel and now Zechariah. Next week, we’ll pause for a moment to reflect upon what we’ve learned on ...read more

    Progress became a secular god, a new form of hope for secular man in the 19th century, a progress that would lead to freedom. It was not to be.

    Monday of 2nd Week in Lent The call of Jesus in Matthew, which we heard at Mass on Saturday, was to “be perfect, as the heavenly Father.” In Luke’s redaction we heard today, the call is to “be merciful, as the heavenly Father.” If we understand that the root meaning of perfection is ...read more

    How should we as Christians relate to the secular powers? This is not an easy question to answer, but we must struggle to find one.

    A Christian’s Duty to Government Romans 13:1-10 Jesus was once tempted with the question whether it was lawful to pay taxes to Caesar. The Pharisees had carefully collected both Herodians who supported paying taxes to Rome and Zealots who thought that paying taxes to Caesar was treason against the ...read more
