    Down But Not Out!

    When it comes to suffering, Paul calls us to forsake pity parties and glorify God. We can remember that Jesus shines through us, that our weaknesses glorify God, that we may be down but never out, and that our sufferings may bring eternal life to others.

    2 Corinthians 4:5-12 Down but Not Out! A Christian need never suffer. At least that’s what some preachers might tell you. However, that is not the message of scripture. Jesus said, “If they persecuted me, they will persecute you also” (John 15:20). We should expect no better treatment than that ...read more

     | 2,575 views

    The message is a study of the nature of the Lord's Supper as encouragement to worship. We who worship the Saviour are encouraged to see that He has made reservations for two--the Bridegroom and the Bride.

    “I received from the Lord what I also delivered to you, that the Lord Jesus on the night when he was betrayed took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it, and said, ‘This is my body, which is for you. Do this in remembrance of me.’ In the same way also he took the cup, after supper, ...read more

     | 3,375 views

    Christ delivered man out of death to the promise of the gift of eternal life yet man thinking he is in the perfection of God's love, sins. However, to sin is an everyday reality of truth---a reality of faith. Truly, temptations----works of the devil challenge our daily thoughts and decisions.

    ON POINT, III by Dr. Gale A. Ragan-Reid (September 25, 2015) “For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith...For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of ...read more

    Jesus' testimony before Pilate spoke of the purpose of His coming. Though we speak of joy and peace in Christ, it is essential that He came to bring salvation. This He has done through presenting His life as a sacrifice. Those who believe are ushered into His Kingdom.

    “Pilate entered his headquarters again and called Jesus and said to him, ‘Are you the King of the Jews?’ Jesus answered, ‘Do you say this of your own accord, or did others say it to you about me?’ Pilate answered, ‘Am I a Jew? Your own nation and the chief priests have delivered you over to me. ...read more

    The concept of sin and the need for redemption are central themes in Christian theology. The Apostle Paul encapsulates the human condition in Romans 3:23 (NLT): "For everyone has sinned; we all fall short of God’s glorious standard." But what does this mean, and why is it significant?
