Forgive & Set Yourself Free

Contributed by Robbie Bankens on Apr 27, 2006

The ultimate proof of total forgiveness takes place when you and I sincerely petition God to let those who have hurt us off the hook, NO MATTER WHAT THEY’VE DONE!

Whenever I preached here a couple of months ago, I shared some of my testimony and I briefly touched on the subject of forgiveness and the powerful affect that it had on me. I know that the Lord dealt with some of you in that service and about some issues in your own life. Pastor Hanchey asked me ...read more

It Does Make A Difference What You Believe!

Contributed by Kenneth Trent on Nov 23, 2002

Those who say: "it doesn’t matter what you believe so long as you are sincere" are espousing a very dangerous and false doctrine. It really does matter what you believe.

IT DOES MAKE A DIFFERENCE WHAT YOU BELIEVE “Now the just shall live by faith; but if anyone draws back, My soul has no pleasure in him. But we are not of those who draw back to perdition, but of those who believe to the saving of the soul.” Hebrews 10:38-39 The statement "It ...read more

Sharing What We Have Series

Contributed by Christian Cheong on May 15, 2009

The early church was exemplary. They relied upon the power and grace of the Lord Jesus, and in concerted prayer experience victory in a harsh environment. They expressed their love for God by a sincere love for people, in meeting everyone’s needs.

Part 3 Of 5: How Can I Get Along With People At Church? Series

Contributed by Jerry Blaxton on Aug 27, 2009

The reason why church people must get along is so that when we proclaim the gospel to the lost, they will see sincerity and love and will hear the message, and new believers will hear the teaching of the Scripture and will be strengthened in their faith.

Sown Among Rocks

Contributed by Shawn Miller on Oct 2, 2015

By pointing out the dangers of the rocky soil in Mark 4, there is an appeal to be humble, earnest and sincere in our walk with the Lord. The Rocky soil convert receives the gospel gladly, progresses in it rapidly, but then falls away quickly

Sown among Rocks Introduction: During our Wednesday night service, Pedro had a great point about our church during our testimony service and it spurred a thought, that I want to expound upon today about the true gospel church and about the true gospel convert. We often see somethings blow up like ...read more

We Have Found The Messiah

Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Jan 17, 2017

We have found the Messiah John 1:29-42 Today we come together to worship in our church because we are people who have found the Messiah. While this may seem like an obvious statement, there is much more to it. Looking to today’s scripture passage we discover some very interesting things. Andrew ...read more

I Love The Lord Because...

Contributed by Melvin Newland on Mar 5, 2018

Christianity is not a “What’s in it for me?” religion. The Bible views thanks-giving as the sincere overflow of gratitude for all that God has given to us. Thanks-giving is not self-centered; it’s God-centered.

Joshua A Successful Leader Series

Contributed by Rev. Dr. Andrew B Natarajan on Feb 25, 2022

Many spiritual programs, activities, and events are not fruitful, not successful, and never yield the targeted result, not because of lack of money and personnel but lack of sincere prayer warriors. We get people to stand on the frontline but not on the kneeling.

Theme: You will be Successful Text: Joshua 1:1-9 Greetings: The Lord is good and His love endures forever. Introduction: Joshua was known as the soldier of the Lord and a successor of Moses.

Bad News, Good News

Contributed by Melvin Newland on May 25, 2023

I'm convinced that whenever an innocent, sincere individual is taken advantage of, or has his faith ruined because of our greed or by our example, that God takes that very seriously, too.

It Is Time

Contributed by Jerry Flury on Jan 5, 2010

Hosea tells Israel it is time for them to seek Jehovah that He might hear their prayer and see the evidence of their sincerity and rain His righteous blessing upon them rather than judgment. Like Israel I believe God is telling us today that “It is Time.”

It is Time Hosea 10:12 “Sow for yourselves righteousness; Reap in mercy; Break up your fallow ground, For it is time to seek the Lord, Till He comes and rains righteousness on you.” After the death of Solomon, In 922 BCE, the Kingdom of Israel was divided.

Are You A Closet Pharisee? Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Sep 21, 2006

Jesus has some tough things to say the Scribes and Pharisees, but these two groups started out as well meaning, sincere people about their relationship to God. What happened to them can happen to us as well.

Most Christians are sincere and well meaning in their walk with Christ. That goes for average garden variety Christians, so called "lay" people, and professionals - pastors and the like who make their living off of the gospel. What may be surprising is that even well meaning Christians can fall ...read more
