The Trial Of Jesus Series

Contributed by Ken Henson on Oct 31, 2012

Jesus could have said, “I AM” and you are not. And the whole crowd that came to arrest Him would have disappeared! He spoke the universe into existence, He could have spoken these soldiers out of existence. For Jesus being arrested is something that He di

When People Say We Don’t Need God

Contributed by Paul Barreca on Nov 27, 2011

The TOWER of BABEL represents man’s effort without God. The Builders of Shinar failed in their attempt tried to reach heaven through human effort. We too will fail if we believe that spiritual enlightenment comes through human effort. The only way to k

The battle for our worship is a battle that draws our flesh and its desire to exert itself over God. The flesh demands that it be stroked, satisfied and honored.

What It Means To Have Faith (1)

Contributed by Christian Cheong on Nov 2, 2011

Biblical faith is real, practical and experiential. Faith is dependency on God. Practical faith is (1) believing when you don’t see it, and (2) obeying when you don’t understand it.

Turn with me to Hebrews 11. Look through and you’ll see these words: BY FAITH… • We have here a list of men (and woman) in history that have exercised faith in God and saw the acts of God in their lives. • Biblical faith is not an emotion or a feeling. It is not abstract or intangible. It is ...read more

Sin No More

Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Jun 28, 2012

Worldwide Judgment In The Days Of Noah Series

Contributed by Mark Opseth on Apr 13, 2011

In Noah's day, God destroyed the earth with a flood. In the last day, God will destroy the earth with a fire.

Sermon - The Believers Perspective - Take The Long View

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Jan 29, 2025

All He Does Is Win! Series

Contributed by Ken Mckinley on Feb 12, 2025

Jesus never fails. A persons faith is only as good as the object they place it in. We must make sure that our faith in Jesus as He is revealed in Scripture. Not a "Jesus" of our own imagination.
