    We receive the Holy Spirit as Christians, but how do we tap into that power to do God’s Work?

    BE FILLED Last week we talked about the Holy Spirit and how we possess the same power that the 1st apostles possessed. We discussed how in order to be the Christ’s light in the world we need to be empowered by the Holy Spirit. Today, I want to talk about how we go about tapping into that power. ...read more

    We are living epistles that others may see and glorify our Father.

    Being a Christian is not easy, and is not something that can be taken lightly.

    Where do You Eat? I am again, giving you a message that many, if not all, will find very strong. Brethren, I continue to bring you strong messages from the Lord because there exists a great complacency in the people of God. There are a large number of people in the body of Christ that ignore, or ...read more

    4th Sunday after Pentecost Luke 9: 51-62 "I will follow you, but......"   Do you know of a little word in our language which if placed after a statement, becomes the biggest negative word in our language? The word is but, as in, I will follow you, Lord, but it negates all that come before. Or, I ...read more

    Contrary to the saying, "The only things guaranteed in life are death and taxes"......

    Death and Taxes ILLUS: If you go back to 1700 and all the way up through to the year 2100, a day like today will only happen 12 times. Oh, I’m not talking about Easter. What is unusual about today is that Easter and “Tax Day” fall on the same day. On the same day we celebrate the ...read more

    God’s purpose for the church will be accomplished. But will we be part of it? That depends.

    I love this illustration from Sermon Central: A teacher was asking children in his Sunday school class, “If I sold my house and my car, had a big garage sale and gave all my money to the church, would I get to heaven?” “NO”! The children answered. “If I cleaned the church everyday, mowed the yard, ...read more

    God must do His work in you, before He can do His work through you. He needs for you to be transformed on the inside, therefore He can use you to do His work. He wants to use you as an example for those who don’t know Him. For those who have never acce

     | 6,296 views

    Until that day when we shall see Him "face to face", we can marvel at the scriptural picture of the face of our Lord Jesus recorded in the Word of God.

    THE FACE OF JESUS “Now it came to pass, when the time had come for Him to be received up, that He steadfastly set His face to go to Jerusalem, and sent messengers before His face. And as they went, they entered a village of the Samaritans, to prepare for Him. But they did not receive Him, because ...read more

    The risks and the benefits of living a transparent Christian life, as our Savior did.
