    Every Christian possesses the fruit of the Holy Spirit; we have to nourish them so they grow. These fruits are positive characteristics; gifts; we cannot manufacture them, and certainly cannot witness without displaying them.

    Today, we will explore the topic of the fruit of the Holy Spirit. As Christians, we are all blessed with these fruit, but it is our responsibility to nurture and develop them. These fruit are positive characteristics and gifts that we cannot manufacture on our own. They are essential for us to ...read more

    Side effects of Being a Christian

    The Side of Effects of the Holy Spirit When I was younger there was a TV commercial that had a dramatization of an elderly woman on it who had apparently taken either the wrong medication or even just a bad side effect of a right medication.

    Proverbial wisdom. 1- Companionship 2- Temper

    INTRO.- Quips, quotes and notes - It was not the apple on the tree but the pair on the ground that caused the trouble in the garden. That’s like a gun. There is nothing wrong with a gun. It’s what people do with the gun that makes it bad. The problem was the disobedience of Adam and Eve. ...read more

    We need to see the real person of Christ , not a stained-glass window version, for he was the Eternal Son becoming the Emptied Servant and is now the Exalted Lord.

    THE ADVENT HYMN TO CHRIST The Advent season has come around again. What does it all mean? To the world in general and to us?

  • Christmas Freedom Series

     | 7,450 views

    By God’s grace Christmas came to set you free from sin. Christmas came to set you free from the penalty of sin, from the power of sin, and from the presence of sin.

    We should have a pretty good idea of what happened on that first Christmas morning. We know that Mary conceived of the Holy Spirit. We know that Jesus was born of a virgin, in a stable in Bethlehem. We’ve heard and read Matthew 1 and Luke 2 enough to know what happened that night. We know what ...read more

    A verse by verse message on Hebrews 11:20-29 teaching people to live an "I CAN" life through faith.

I can’t face this. She would respond with this saying. She wanted me to live in the land of FAITH, the ...read more

  • The Brand Of The Cross Series

    Contributed by A. B. Simpson on Oct 8, 2009
    based on 8 ratings
     | 8,742 views

    It is the cross of Christ which is the object at once of His shame and His glory. This classic sermon by A. B. Simpson looks first at the marks of the Lord Jesus, and then at their reproduction in His followers.

    "From henceforth let no man trouble me: for I bear in my body the marks of the Lord Jesus" (Gal. 6:17). The word marks in this text is translated by Rotherham, "brand marks." The world describes a mark that has been branded into the flesh, and suggests the idea of the cruel practice of certain ...read more

     | 5,876 views

    God glorifies the Messiah through death both to give life to his people and to honor those that die.

    Scripture Introduction John’s way of telling the story of Messiah has provided many opportunities to focus on him both as prophet (the very Word of God in human flesh) and as priest (the sacrifice for the sins of the people). In today’s text, Christ as King is the focus. 500 years ...read more
