    Who will train up our next generation of godly Mothers? All Scripture references are from the NASB

    You have heard it said, “We are but one generation away from a being a pagan people.” This is so true. I praise God for my godly parents for the way they raised me. If it were not for them I believe I could have very well been swept up and out with the ways of the world. I know for many ...read more

    Law keeping begins with a head issue, and following Christ begins with a heart issue.

    A. SAUL’S LAW KEEPING WAS IMPERFECT 1. He was a flawed law keeper (Philippians 3:4-6). 2. He hated Christ and persecuted Christians. “Saul was consenting to his (Stephen) death … great persecution against the church … went from house to house … throwing them into prison” (Acts ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,229 views

    Apparently they were many Cretins who contradicted the sound teaching of the faithful Word so here Paul gives God's wisdom for dealing with those who refuse to submit to the sound teaching of the Word of God.

    TITUS 1: 10-16 DEALING WITH REBELLIOUS TEACHERS Paul has just told Titus to hold, against all attacks, the faithful Word and to use its teaching to grow others in sound doctrine and in refuting those who contradict (v. 9). Apparently they were many Cretins who contradicted the sound teaching ...read more

    John's gospel ends, leaving us reassured in our faith, so we can pray for leaders at all levels in church – that they humbly serve their flocks, and we can all re-fix our eyes on Jesus in love, and follow him, relieved of distracting comparisons.

    Sermon by Rev Ruth Newmarch You know how in some movies, the music tells you the end has come, but sometimes the ending has been so dramatic, that you are still taking it in...the implications and emotions are swirling around the audience. Then credits start to roll, but the director has added in ...read more

    "I Am The Good Shepherd” – He Laid Down His Life - John 10 – Part 2 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Sep 2, 2022
     | 3,252 views

    Part 2 of "I am the Good Shepherd" looks at what the good shepherd does and then Jesus as the Good Shepherd. Then we examine Jesus as The Sacrificial Shepherd who gave His life to save the sheep. To close, Jesus is the Chief Shepherd.

    “I AM THE GOOD SHEPHERD” – HE LAID DOWN HIS LIFE - John 10 – PART 2 The study of the great “I AMs” of John’s Gospel is so lovely as we look at the Person and Ministry of our Lord Jesus. In all His offices He is serving His Church and all the individuals in the Church. Those are termed sheep, and ...read more

    Since Paul was in prison awaiting trial, he had to face the fact that it was quite uncertain whether he would live or die; and to him it made no difference.

    Date: 6/2/18 Lesson # 6 Title: Whether He Lives Or Dies, It Will Be A Blessing Scripture: (Philippians 1:21-23, NIV) 21 For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain. 22 If I am to go on living in the body, this will mean fruitful labor for me.

    Identity Theft

    Contributed by Phillip Smith on Nov 11, 2023
     | 1,467 views

    An unstable person who feels inadequate in their identity might steal another’s because it might bring them personal gain. Others who have turned to evil find pleasure in stealing from a person more wealthy than they.

    Knowing mankind has to have individual identifiers for every person, place and thing, he has instinctively created an almost impossibility to recognize things of a spiritual nature. Man cannot readily recognize things of a spiritual nature because he does not see, hear, touch, nor smell or taste a ...read more

    Proverbs 20:30"Lashes and wounds purge away evil, and beatings cleanse the innermost parts."

     | 26,545 views

    The hierarchicalism of lofty and honorific titles, self-exaltation in ministry office and the high crass greed of prosperity is widespread in many congregations and those are dagons that must fall by preaching truth again.

    DAGON MUST FALL 1st Samuel 5:2 –4 As I begin my sermon this evening I want you to know that real revival won’t happen - except there is a paradigm shift back to the fundamental and orthodox principles of the Bible. - And if we’re to see the Lord high and lifted up as Isaiah did, ...read more
