Lies We Believe - Intro Series

Contributed by Robert Higgins on Apr 17, 2008

I have seen the difference believing a lie will make upon my life, and I have experienced first hand, the freedom the truth makes when I build my life upon the truth.

Sermon about denying our perception of sin and worldliness and start percieving things as God would percieve them

II Tim 3: 8 Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith. 9 But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all men, as theirs also was. 10 But thou hast fully known my doctrine, ...read more

The Church Of Tolerance

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Jan 9, 2006

In our society today, tolerance is considered a virtue. But our definition of it has changed - and accepting and even applauding any and every practice will weaken and pollute our lives. Learn how to safeguard your church and your life from compromise.

When I read verses 18-29 I picture a church in turmoil - a good church with good people that has been infiltrated with those who would exploit weakness and draw off believers into immorality.

Licking The Lips

Contributed by Jimmy Chapman on Jan 26, 2008
