    based on 174 ratings
     | 21,023 views

    The first in a series of messages on Matthew 24 & 25, this message focuses on understanding that Matthew 24 is primarily pointing to the destruction of Jerusalem and warning us not to waste time predicting the time of Christ’s return. Rather, be prepared at all times.

    Because Jesus Is Returning . . . "Understanding Matthew 24" You can’t read the article that appeared in the Atlanta Journal, June 5, 1997 without some remorse and sympathy for Clarence Jackson. "The clock struck midnight and Clarence Jackson didn’t turn into a millionaire." Jackson, who is 24, ...read more

    Be Careful What You Pray For, You Might Get It Series

    There are only two motives for prayer: fear and hope. If you pray and live in fear, you will live a lie and deny God, and you will become destructive. But if you pray and live in fear, you will find satisfaction and will become a life-giver.

    God answers prayer. Let there be no doubt about that. God answers prayer. God responds to what His people ask. So it has often been said that you had better be careful what you pray for, because you just might get it! There is something awesome, something even dangerous about prayer. ...read more

    II. We must understand how destructive sin is. A. How are we supposed to “mourn”? 1. Like at a funeral of a lost family member? 2. Like when we did something wrong by accident or on purpose?

    Introduction: As we continue our series, let’s back up for a moment and consider what has just transpired in the life of Christ.

    While God May Be Found (July 17, 2022)

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Jul 15, 2022
     | 2,403 views

    Who would argue against the understanding that we live in a day when many take God for granted? One thing that eighth chapter of Amos makes clear is that moving away from God invites destruction. The opening image of ripe fruit cuts to the chase as a metaphor for God’s judgement.

    WHILE GOD MAY BE FOUND Texts: Isaiah 55:6, Amos 8:1- 2, 8:11- 12 Isaiah 55:6 Seek the Lord while He may be found; call upon Hime while He is near Amo 8:1 This is what the Lord GOD showed me: behold, a basket of summer fruit. 2 And he said, “Amos, what do you see?” And I said, “A basket of ...read more

    As a parent, you are the spiritual “umbrella” over your children. If you allow failure in your moral life, you will open a leak in your protection through which Satan can bring destructive temptations to your children.

    Nehemiah 4:14 And I looked, and rose up, and said unto the nobles, and to the rulers, and to the rest of the people, Be not ye afraid of them: remember the Lord, which is great and terrible, and fight for your brethren, your sons, and your daughters, your wives, and your houses.
