     | 3,195 views

    This message raises some thought-provoking questions: What would you do if you were God and your prized creation was in rebellion? After death, do the souls of wicked people go to a place of torment called Hell to later get resurrected and stand before God in the last judgment?

    This sermon highlights the benefits of having Jesus, the Captain of our Salvation sail with us as we go through different situations and seasons of life.

    Jesus is always looking for a ‘boat’ – a heart, a life, a ministry, a business, a family, a church, a nation to enter into. When Jesus got into Peter’s boat, Peter didn’t shut or shove Jesus out of his boat, he allowed Him in. Allowing Jesus into his boat, gave Peter a life-changing encounter with ...read more

    Called Into Righteousness Series

    Contributed by Matthew Kratz on Aug 19, 2022
     | 1,510 views

    To counter false belief to show how someone is Called into Righteousness, it changes one’s understanding of their 1) Relationships (Romans 3:1-2), 2) Responsibility (Romans 3:3-4) and their 3) Righteousness (Romans 3:5-8)

    Romans 3:1–8. Then what advantage has the Jew? Or what is the value of circumcision? 2 Much in every way. To begin with, the Jews were entrusted with the oracles of God. 3 What if some were unfaithful? Does their faithlessness nullify the faithfulness of God? 4 By no means! Let God be true though ...read more

    The radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh was loved by some and hated by others. However, for years when he was alive he was the most listen to person on talk radio.

    His success in talk radio came about because many feel that he expressed on national radio what many Americans think and cannot express. That is, he gave his listeners a voice to public express what they believed. One reason many people like to read the Psalms in the Old Testament is ...read more
