    Store up riches towards God because you never know when He will demand your soul

    Luke 12.13-21 The Rich Fool Did you know you can purchase almost anything on eBay these days? Just this past week an Australian man has sold his complete life – his home, his possessions, his job and his friends – the bidding had gotten to £400,000. Not so long ago a 20 year old student in the ...read more

    Thanksgiving Message

    Thanksgiving or Thankskeeping Gratefulness and thanksgiving stem from a clear focus on the goodness of God. Without a fundamental focus on the goodness of God, there can be no consistent meaningful gratitude in the heart of man or thankfulness from the mouth of man. The appreciation ...read more

    Soul For Sale

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Jun 3, 2009
    based on 10 ratings
     | 9,588 views

    In America, you can metaphorically and literally sell your soul and be rewarded for it. One wonders how the purchaser intended to collect. We can’t literally sell our soul, but we can lose our soul to gain something else. We need to ponder Jesus’ question

    Opening illustration: One would think that selling one’s soul, as Faust offered his to the devil in Goethe’s Dr. Faustus, is only a figment of literary fiction. Medieval as it seems, however, several cases of soul-selling have occurred. Wired magazine reported that a 29-year-old university ...read more

    The Lord works sovereignly over the world & individuals because He created both the world & its people. It is His right as Creator & Sustainer. What God does He does in righteousness in order to bring forth righteousness.

    ISAIAH 45: 8-13 RAISED UP FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS The Lord works sovereignly over the world and individuals because He created both the world and its people. It is His right as Creator and Sustainer. Those created have no right to rebelliously question the Creator’s ways. What ...read more

    Stones And Glass Houses

    based on 1 rating
     | 8,977 views

    If you are the Victim of an unwarranted attack that seems to come out of the clear blue sky you need to realize that God may just be using you for an object lesson to others while at the same time correcting what may be a proud or haughty spirit.

    Stones and Glass Houses Most of us are familiar with the old adage: People who live in glass houses shouldnt throw stones. This is actually a warning against hypocrisy. Before you go accusing someone of some wrong doing, make sure that you too are not guilty of wrong doing because your ...read more

    What my human nature really looks like – Oh yes, and so does yours too.

    We Christians have two natures one utterly corrupt the other totally divine Eph 4:22-24 (Written to Christians) That you put off, concerning your former conduct, the old man (human nature) which grows corrupt according to the deceitful lusts… and that you put on the new man (divine nature) ...read more

    What did King James say about smoking?

    Not far from the North Dakota farm where I grew up was a barely-there town: a couple of grain elevators, a post office, a bar, and a general store. The store was a brick box, containing creaky floors, old and poorly stocked shelves, a few spotty fruits and vegetables, and a single dairy case. ...read more

    A Good Kind Of Debt

    Paul, like Jesus, tells us to love everyone, even those who irritate us. We should practice love in action because 1) God tells us to do so, and 2) Jesus is coming soon.

    Romans 13:8-14 A Good Kind of Debt Tomorrow is Patriot’s Day, the 16th anniversary of the deadliest single attack on U.S. soil, even eclipsing Pearl Harbor in casualties. Thousands of courageous people risked their lives to save others. Firefighters rushed against the crowds to enter the doomed ...read more

    Christians are sinners saved by grace.

    Many have a hard time imagining a God who wants to be close to us. They think that maybe God insists we clean ourselves up first. But God says don’t bother to get cleaned up. Just come as you are. Come with all your defects, faults and flaws. Come with your guilt and bad habits. Come as you are and ...read more

     | 2,739 views

    We need to be made ready, by the power of the holy spirit, to suffer persecution with grace and humility. Jesus is, and will always be, the greatest example in history of denying his own rights and giving up his own power.

     | 4,825 views

    #5 out of 2 Peter. In 2 Peter 2:1-22, Peter describes the false teachers who were leading the believers astray. He uses 4 Old Testament examples to validate New Testament beliefs and behaviors.

    WHEN IT’S OKAY BE A DUMB DONKEY! “But these, like unreasoning animals, born as creatures of instinct to be captured and killed, reviling where they have no knowledge, will in the destruction of those creatures also be destroyed, suffering wrong as the wages of doing wrong. They count it a pleasure ...read more

     | 241 views

    Our Lord calls us to examine the difference between a belief that agrees with God in the mind, and a faith that trusts God with the whole life. A faith that sits in the wheelbarrow. A faith that works.

    Go! And… Live a Faith That Works There is a story told of a tightrope walker who stretched a rope across Niagara Falls. Crowds gathered as he walked across with incredible skill. Then he took a wheelbarrow and pushed it across. The people cheered. He asked them, “Do you believe I can do it again ...read more

    God's Love Gift (Advent Season)

     | 4,330 views

    Advent/Christmas Sermon, specifically on the subject of God's love.

    John 3:16, Romans 5:8 As we are in the final Advent Sunday before Christmas, it makes sense the topic is love. The gospel is rooted in love (John 3:16). In fact the whole Bible is; that's really all the Bible is, it's a love-letter from God. Tragically, some abuse it, weaponize it to ...read more

    The sermon discusses John the Baptist's role as a witness to Christ's light, emphasizing our similar calling to point others to Jesus, with the advantage of a fuller understanding of His divine nature.

    Hello Church! Today our passage comes from the Gospel of John. Now, there are two different “John’s” we’re going to discuss today. The first one is John the Baptist. Some of us are familiar with this guy. He was the forerunner of Jesus who baptized people in the wilderness for forgiveness of their ...read more

    Jesus gave up His Divinity, voluntarily and willingly, in order to become a man. The divine glory was exchanged for human lowliness. He emptied Himself of His DEITY to take upon Himself His HUMANITY. He stripped himself of the insignia of majesty. What wa
