How To Improve Your Serve In Church Series

Contributed by Michael Mccartney on Oct 1, 2021

The church is the vital community through which worship to God happens, it’s the place where people grow spiritually, it’s the place that fosters connection with God and others.

Series: How to improve your serve? Thesis: As Christians we are called to be servants! Yes, I said the “s” word “servants” – for many this term seems to imply to some – a slave, a person lacking self-esteem, someone of lower class, a person crushed in spirit, a person with low self-worth.

Children Of The Devil

Contributed by Paul Green on Oct 6, 2022

Our earthly heritage isn't important, but our spiritual heritage is. Just as we reflect the image of our earthly fathers – so also we reflect the image of our spiritual father. If you want to know whether you’re a child of God or a child of the devil – just take a look in the mirror.

Jesus says, ‘You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies.’ (v44) I wonder ...read more

Pentecost Power

Contributed by Brian Williams on May 31, 2023

Jesus loved us so much He came to die for us, to save us, and after His ascension, empower us as His people. Do we believe this, have we experienced this? How often we miss the mark when we attempt to do spiritual work without spiritual power.

Acts 2:1-13 NLT On the day of Pentecost all the believers were meeting together in one place. 2 Suddenly, there was a sound from heaven like the roaring of a mighty windstorm, and it filled the house where they were sitting. 3 Then, what looked like flames or tongues of fire appeared and ...read more

Burning Fever Be Gone!

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Aug 29, 2024

The Bible teaches us that sin is an infection leading to a terrible fever; an infection that must be cleansed through the washing of water by the word and by the precious blood of Jesus Christ. He heals both spiritual and physical illnesses.

“In 1818, Ignaz Phillip Semmelweis was born into a world of dying women. The finest hospitals lost one out of six young mothers to the scourge of ‘childbed fever.’ A doctor’s daily routine began in the dissecting room where he performed autopsies. From there he made his way to the hospital to ...read more

"I Will Lift My Eyes Unto The Hills…”

Contributed by John Gaston on Sep 10, 2020

Spiritual vacuum. Hunger for God. Seeking God in solitary places. Waiting on the Lord. Stillness. 3 types of silence. "Look unto Me and be saved." Fixing our eyes on Him. Admitting weakness, embracing Omnipotence.

Cycle Of Redemption Series

Contributed by Rev. Dr. Andrew B Natarajan on Nov 9, 2022

Sons, Sin, Swine, And Starving Souls

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Nov 28, 2009

World Hunger Sunday: The younger son found that physical hunger starved his soul; the elder son found that spiritual hunger hardened his heart; the Father hungers for all of his children’s needs.

When I read the Gospels, I know that Jesus must have been a Baptist, and the twelve disciples must have been the Deacons of the First Baptist Church of Galilee. Must have been! Do you know why? Because there is all this talk about eating! Everywhere you turn in the Gospels, there are stories ...read more

Judge Not, But Discern Wisely Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Dec 15, 2023

Jesus warned about the problems associated with criticizing others, and of the need to do some spiritual self-examination before passing judgement. He then said that we need to use discernment when dealing with some people.

This morning, we are going to look at the problem of judging others. The definition for the word “judge” that applies to our passage means, “to form a judgment or opinion” and to “decide upon critically.”(1) The key word here is “critically,” for when we judge others we are often being “critical” ...read more

Thy Word I Have Hidden In My Heart Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Sep 13, 2022

Psalm 119 isn’t blasé about God’s commandments. Psalm 119 isn’t neural about God’s precepts. Psalm 119 loves and adores the law of God!

Psalm 119 is the longest chapter in all of your Bibles. Now, the longest chapter in your Bible is devoted to how important the Bible is to our lives. Even though the Bible is really valuable, the words and wisdom of the Bible are objectionable to so many people. Banning the Bible The Bible is ...read more

Revelation 3__4-22 The Lukewarm Church

Contributed by Charles Scott on Aug 2, 2008

Lack of zeal for the Gospel and Christian faith is a danger for those who are possessed of wealth and feel self-sufficient. Christ calls us from the cares of the world and deceitfulness of riches to restored spiritual vision, real safety and true wealth.

Revelation 3__4-22 the Lukewarm Church "Blessed are the Lukewarm." Christians profess to follow religiously Jesus Christ. If that is so, then surely "Blessed are the Lukewarm" must have been one of his sayings for there are so many, many professing Christians who show no enthusiasm or service. ...read more

Religion And Politics: We Must Talk About Them!

Contributed by Kelly Durant on Oct 31, 2016

Jesus kingdom is not from this world but he taught us to respect the ones in power. In history God uses His people to influence and free His people. As Christians we must fight for the right by all means necessary, spiritually and politically.

Religion and Politics: We must talk about them! Kelly Durant Nov. 2016 John 18:36 Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, My servants would fight, so that I should not be delivered to the Jews; but now My kingdom is not from here.” 2. Why is ...read more

Life Or Lust Series

Contributed by Dennis Davidson on Nov 10, 2011

When we consider how adultery abounds, how heinous a sin it is, what evil consequence it brings, & how destructive it is to the spiritual life & even physical life (1 Cor. 6:15-20), it is no wonder that the warnings against it are repeated so often.
