John Eats A Scroll Series

Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Oct 29, 2022

God's purposes in Revelation are reaching a climax as the seventh trumpet is about to be sounded. A mighty angel declares, 'There will be no more delay.' And then, he gives John a scroll to eat and tells him he must prophesy. Why?

N.B. This is the fourth of a series of talks on Revelation. The first three talks are titled: In God’s Throne Room The Great Tribulation Environmental Devastation in End Times INTRODUCTION Today we’re continuing in our series on Revelation. I’ve called the series ‘Revelation: The Hard Parts.’ ...read more

Jesus, The Bread Of Life Series

Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Aug 31, 2024

Jesus is the bread of life. He is our daily sustenance and this bread gives eternal life. And although his claim sounds unbelievable, too good to be true, we have reason to believe it. Jesus had just fed 5,000 people.

INTRODUCTION We’re doing a series on ‘Titles of Jesus.’ We’ve done two so far. My first talk was on Jesus the Good Shepherd. Then, last week, we looked at Jesus the Rock. It’s wonderful to know that Jesus is our Good Shepherd and our rock. Both of those descriptions of Jesus have their roots in ...read more

Am I Ready To Do What God Called Me To Do? Series

Contributed by Andrew Chan on Mar 10, 2009

If I had planned it, I would have sent Jet Li who at least knows kung-fu or perhaps someone like Obama with great speech making ability to rally the people, or maybe some freak of nature like the Incredible Hulk, so why weak old burnt-out Moses

Am I ready to do what God called me to do? Ex. 2:1-4:31 Are you ready for God to use you? What me? You are kidding? Yeah you! God wants to bless the world, not damn the world, and he wants you to be part of that blessing and through you to make it so. You may say, look, I am really nothing to ...read more

Being Renewed In The Spirit Of Your Mind

Contributed by Mark Roper on Feb 21, 2009

People who live long lives together eventually begin to sound alike, to talk alike, and even to think alike. As we walk with God, we take on his thoughts, his principles, and his attitudes. We take on his heart, mind, and personality.

Being Renewed in the Spirit of Your Mind Eph 4:17-24 NKJV As we walk as Christians, were in a battle for our minds. What does this mean? You will either be a person who controls your mind or you will be a person who is controlled by your mind. 1. Your mind is the doorway into who we ...read more

Rise Up Its Time To Move

Contributed by Ian Johnson on Aug 3, 2006

God has been moving his bride forward since the day of Pentecost; there have been times of rest and times of moving forward. I believe that the trumpet has sounded! The time for camping has ended, its time to rise up and move forward.

Numbers 10:5 “When you sound the trumpet to move on, the tribes on the east side of the Tabernacle will break camp and move forward. 6 When you sound the trumpet a second time, the tribes on the south will follow. You must sound short blasts to signal moving on. I believe that the trumpet has ...read more

When The Cheers Turned Sour

Contributed by Jerry Flury on Apr 21, 2013

Christ rode into Jerusalem as the crowds gathered and cheered. But the sweet sounds of cheers turned sour and faded over the next few days as they gave way to shouts of “Crucify Him!” To understand this we must first understand why the crowds followed Chr

The Hero's Authority Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Dec 19, 2011

Wanting to do something and actually being able to do it are two entirely different things. Jesus may have been introduced as the ultimate action hero but without action it's just a good sound bite. In this study the hero demonstrates His authority and ab

It is one thing to claim you can do something and it’s quite another to actually accomplish it. When I was four years old, like a lot of kids my age, I was enamored with Mighty Mouse.

The Journey

Contributed by Howard Strickland on May 16, 2011

“Life is not a journey to the grave with intentions of arriving safely in a pretty well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out and loudly proclaiming ... WOW! What a ride!” Just the word “Journey” sounds

Part 2 - Genesis 12:1-9 - When God Hijacks Your Life? Series

Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Mar 10, 2010

I can't imagine packing the removal truck and saying to the driver to pull out without knowing what town you wanted him to go to. "DON'T ASK QUESTIONS! JUST DRIVE!" Sounds like a terrorist trying to hijack a vehicle.

Part 2 - Genesis 12:1-9 - DON'T ASK QUESTIONS, JUST DRIVE! When God hijacks your life! If you have kids, you know the routine. Five minutes into the trip they are asking "WHERE ARE WE GOING?

Buying Your Own Ticket To Hell

Contributed by John Gaston on Jan 15, 2020

Nobody really wants to go to Hell. Its very name conveys the ideas of “dread” and “punishment.” As strange as it sounds, one man in Scripture did buy his own ticket to Hell. Possibly some of you are in the process of buying your own ticket there.
