A Fountain Will Be Opened Series

Contributed by Chris Appleby on Oct 18, 2000

Here is a prophecy that tells us about God’s plan for salvation for his people, including the suffering and glorification of Jesus Christ who is to come.

One of the difficulties people have when they first become Christians and begin studying the Bible, is what to do with the Old Testament. In fact some people never quite work that one out. It seems so foreign doesn’t it? It’s full of stories of wars; of God’s favouritism towards the people of ...read more

Christmas Is More Than A Feeling

Contributed by Mike Hays on Oct 18, 2000

Christmas is more than tinsel and bows, it is the birth of our Savior and what He has given to us.

Christmas Is More Than A Feeling Luke 4:18-21 So much of Christmas has been hijacked by popular cultural and transformed into something it was never meant to be.

Be Faithful Series

Contributed by Scott Weber on Mar 23, 2001

Third in a series on Matthew 24 & 25, this message focuses on the mandate to be faithful with what God has entrusted to us since Jesus is coming back and we don’t know when.

Because Jesus Is Returning . . . "Be Faithful- Matthew 25:14-30" I like reading bumper stickers. Sometimes you get an unusual combination of bumper stickers on one car that give an unintended message. One such combination was funny. One read: JESUS IS COMING! and the one next to it said: ...read more

Don't Call God's Plan Unclean

Contributed by David Shipman on Dec 4, 2004

I want to read the majority of the story so please bare with me as we do then we will come back look at some important issues concerning it. Read: Acts ...read more

Cleansing The Temple

Contributed by James May on Apr 13, 2003

Why did Jesus go first to the Temple and then begin to cleanse it? What does he need to cleanse from our temples?

CLEANSING THE TEMPLE The shouts of Hosanna still rang loudly in ears of the citizens of Jerusalem on that first Palm Sunday. A large gathering of people were on hand to see Jesus as he rode into the city as the King of Peace on the back of a colt. Jesus continued down the dusty streets while ...read more

When No One Cares Series

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jan 27, 2008

What are the implications if no one cares about the dillusioned, the desperate, or those who have made poor decisions? What if no one cares for the soul, the essence, of others?

He had been running so long and so hard. Running from everything. What an irony that he of all people had had to flee for his very life! He had been on the upswing, he had been successful in everything. He had been the fair-haired lad in the eyes of those who counted, and had even married into ...read more
