    Ever since the brightness of heaven flooded the hills of Bethlehem; and the far off twinkling star guided Eastern wise-men to the new born King…Christ has been the Light of the world, and we have celebrated Christmas with colorful lights.

    Even in the toughest of times, God has NOT forgotten about Naomi, and, He most certainly has not forgotten about you, either! Even in our despair, God STILL provides comfort for each of us and Ruth is an incredible story about this.

    ASTROLOGERS?! REALLY?: God doesn’t care how little you know about Him. - Matthew 2:1-2 – “Magi” - The Christmas story and its details are so familiar to us that we fail to see the uncomfortable details that should shock us. - One such detail: Magi come to bow down to ...read more

    Signs From The Bible

    Contributed by Dennis King on Mar 3, 2022
     | 2,011 views

    Are today's experiences representative signs of the Last Days? Signs are found throughout the Bible? God gives us repeated evidence, through signs and miracles, that He is there with us, with His people. And occasionally, He chooses to reveal what will happen in the future.

    Signs From the Bible Have you ever considered that what we are experiencing nowadays is representative of the signs of the Last Days? There is rampant anger expressed everywhere, and people are quickly infuriated. Have you noticed the fiercely destructive forms of lawlessness raising their ugly ...read more

    The Life And Death Struggles Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Dec 11, 2021
     | 1,779 views

    Today we are in a struggle like that between Moses and Balak, or between Jesus and the religious authorities, a battle to the death between God’s people and a pagan secular culture.

    Homily for Monday in 3rd Week of Advent Balaam was a prophet for hire. He was a wealthy and respected prophet of Yahweh, but he was not an Israelite. Balak, a king who was in the way of Israel as they moved toward the Promised Land, was nervous about all these people moving across his territory. ...read more

    What does it mean to be light?

    Jesus Christ who we celebrate during Christmas stated in John 8:12, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life." What did Jesus mean that He is the Light of the world? Jesus of course was giving a word picture, a metaphor; ...read more

    Jesus is the Light of the world. Light replaces the darkness, therefore, Jesus is that Light which shines in the hearts of the Saints. Have you seen the Light?

    Have you ever pondered how powerful light is? When one is in the dark, they are desperately seeking for any light for guidance to safety. Children sometimes need a night light for comfort, or direction to the bathroom at night. Light has reference also to understanding. For instance, when someone ...read more

     | 3,294 views

    This sermon is to check our Christmas spirit against the spirit of the angelic host as they introduced God Almighty to the world!

    Christmas Spirit: The Angelic Host Luke 2:8-20 (key – 14) The angels of heaven gave us the first taste of what the Christmas season should be like. What a sight, what sound, what a celebration! I am tremendously jealous of these shepherds, especially being a musician. I don’t know if they sang or ...read more

    The Significance Of The Place Of Jesus’ Birth Series

    Contributed by Charl Swart on Dec 20, 2015
     | 15,141 views

    What is the significance with regards to the place, Bethlehem and the manger, where Jesus was born. Can we find any significance in it. Does it have any meaning for us today. After all, God did choose where Jesus should be born. The question is why there?

    INTRODUCTION I want to start off with a couple of related questions this morning: • Why are you here in this place, in this church, this morning? • Why are you in South Africa and not in America or Europe or Asia? • Why are you at the work you are at? • Why are you in the ...read more

    "The Inn Hospitality"

    Contributed by Bruce Lee on Nov 30, 2014
    based on 9 ratings
     | 15,248 views

    This is a deeper look at the translation "no room for them in the inn." It is not about there not being enough "space for lodging' but turns to become more about there not being enough "hospitality" for Joseph, Mary, and Jesus.

    “the inn hospitality” “And she brought forth her firstborn Son, and wrapped Him in swaddling cloths, and laid Him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.” Luke 2:7 (NKJV) Intro: There has been much deliberation and speculation over the whereabouts ...read more

    It was prophesied that Jesus would be born in Bethlehem which means the House of Bread. Then He goes on to claim to be the Bread of Life. Micah 5:2 also reveals that the One to come is from eternity past! What an awesome God we serve! PTL!!

    Last week we took a look at the 2nd chapter of Daniel and saw that: - the “stone cut out from the mountain without human hands” was a prophecy about the virgin birth of Jesus - the “kingdom that will never be destroyed or conquered, that will crush all these kingdoms into ...read more
