    The Marks Of Maturity

    Contributed by Nigel Heath on Mar 4, 2016
     | 6,981 views

    INTRO Away back in the 1980’s when I began ministry at Abbeyhill Baptist Church a fellow Minister in the City was faced with a problem.

    Contributed by T.j. Conwell on Aug 7, 2022
     | 1,527 views

    So many today are living for themselves and for their honor and glory. Paul teaches, “For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain". We need to understand that life is never about us, but about Jesus!

    “Being a prisoner of the Gospel” Philippians Sermon Series, Part 2 Philippians 1:12-26 Introduction - Reminder about our level-set from last week: 1. Christians must reflect the joy of Christ in everything we do 2. This means you and I are to make the Gospel personal, because it is! ...read more

    The Hidden Power Of Prayer

    Contributed by John Gaston on Nov 28, 2025
     | 323 views

    In the story of Cornelius is hidden a great truth about prayer: repeated prayers gain a weight of prayer which increase their potency. Persistent prayer becomes very visible before God, hastening His action.

    The game of baseball has many jargons that go along with the sport. I have found three that I believe we can take in and gain a lesson from that will inspire us to “Keep in the Game.”

     | 3,033 views

    Jesus shared every bit of the future happenings with His disciples, because He was thrilled by the fact that His disciples have gained knowledge and they knew who He was. KNOWLEDGE OF OUR GOD IS MOST IMPORTANT!

    From that time…… Mathew 16:21 ‘From that time Jesus began to show to His disciples that He must go to Jerusalem, and suffer many things from the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised the third day.’ The above scripture starts with the words, ...read more

    The Scriptures teach us that God’s people are in a spiritual warfare, and as in any warfare there is need for a plan of battle so we can effectively fight against our enemy (Satan) and gain the victory over him.

    Giant - Killers Scripture Reading: 1 Samuel 17 Scripture Text: Romans 8:35-37 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?

    When you think of Jesus, what mental image or picture comes to mind?

     | 4,373 views

    We become part of God's family through baptism and the spiritual cleansing it gives us. Through the spiritual cleansing, we gain a new, child-like nature that allows us to be hopelessly dependent on Christ for salvation.
