    Walking Circumspectly

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Mar 21, 2017
     | 6,618 views

    When we say we walk circumspectly we are saying that whatever we choose to do today, we are aware that there will be circumstances. Whatever we do today, we do with the knowledge that there will be future consequences.

    I have been reading through our church covenant as I mentioned last Sunday evening and I came across the statement that we engage to walk circumspectly. ____________, you’re a member of the church, are you walking circumspectly?

    Victory Over Temptation

    Contributed by Bishop Prof. Julius Soyinka on Apr 19, 2017
     | 10,571 views

Never before has our adversary had such powerful technology with which to glamorize sin. - Temptation on its own is not the same as sin. Sometimes being tempted makes us ...read more

    This is the 27th sermon in a series on the Gospel of John. In this sermon we discuss Jesus healing the man who was born blind, and how that displays the glory of God. We look at some misconceptions people might have about illness, and focus on God's sovereignty and purposes in all things.

    If our faith changes or bends under any circumstance, even in the face of certain death, we have a preference and not a conviction.
