    We have been waiting and watching through November and December. Simeon and Anna, too, were waiting, and now, like these senior saints, our wait is over. Lord, now let Your servants depart in peace; according to Your Word.

    Grace and peace to you from God our Father and from our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Amen. Waiting. It seems that for the past couple of months that’s what we have been talking about. During the month of November we spoke of waiting and watching for the final coming of our Lord. We heard ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 2,589 views

    A sermon dealing with the attempt of the pharisees to trap Jesus by asking his opinion about divorce.

    Is it okay for a Christian to divorce? Is divorce a sin? If I get divorced, can I remarry? Just what are the rules about divorce? That’s what they asked Jesus. If this was a timely topic in Jesus’ day, it is at least as much now. I went to Google and typed in “divorce laws.” Google found ...read more

    John Cameron who made the Oscar winning movie about the Titanic has now partnered to make a new film. The new film takes a true story and distorts the truth. His new film is called "Jesus Family Tomb". But are these Jesus bones as his film suggests?

    A Body of Evidence I would however like to share a story that has a connection to Ireland. I want to talk about the Titanic. It took three years to build the great ship at a cost of over $7,500,000.00 in 1912 dollars and was the pride of the White Star fleet. To build it today would cost over ...read more

    With the greatest message in the world to give, why are Christians treated with hostility?

    One of the things that confuses many Christians is the attitude of non-Christians toward them. Most of us think that since we go to the world with the greatest and most important message in all of history that the world would applaud and cheer. For the most part, people are not waiting for that ...read more

    Jesus came to overcome those who are opposed to God. So we can have confidence, not in our own ability to overcome those who oppose the gospel, but in the God who sent his only Son as both a sign of his love for us and as the means by which that love coul

    There are times when we find it hard to trust God to look after us. There are times when we think our situation is so bad there’s no way out.

    There’s No Such Thing as a "Blue Christmas" Now how many of you here tonight think that you pretty much know all the classic Christmas hymns and secular songs that were ever sang?
