Amarezza (Bitterness)

Contributed by James Dina on Mar 31, 2021

"L'amarezza è come bere veleno per topi e aspettare che il topo muoia." (John Ortberg Jr.). Contribuisce alla malattia fisica e non ci permette di sperimentare la pace che Dio vuole per noi. Vivi in pace con tutti. (Romani 12:18).

Sermon # 29 - The Power Of Preaching The Word Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Nov 27, 2024

Jonah preached and the people of Nineveh repented. Preaching the word of God should be taken seriously, should be based on the word of God. Here are some important aspects of preaching which when followed will certainly produce a bountiful harvest.

We read in Jonah 3:5, “The people of Nineveh believed God. They decided to stop eating for a time to think about their sins. They put on special clothes to show they were sorry. All the people in the city did this, from the most important to the least important.” (ERV) The people of Nineveh ...read more

Kapaitan

Contributed by James Dina on Jul 20, 2020

"Ang kapaitan ay tulad ng pag-inom ng lason ng daga at hinihintay na mamatay ang daga." (John Ortberg Jr.). Nag-aambag ito sa pisikal na sakit at hindi tayo pinapayagan na maranasan ang kapayapaan na nais ng Diyos para sa atin. Mamuhay nang payapa sa lahat. (Roma 12:18).

KAPAITAN "Hayaan ang lahat ng kapaitan at galit at galit at ingay at paninirang-puri, at ang lahat ng kasamaan. Maging mabait sa isa't isa, malambot, mapagpatawad sa isa't isa, na pinatawad kayo ng Diyos kay Cristo". (Efeso 4: 31-32) Ang kapaitan ...read more

The Lord Is With You

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Jul 12, 2015

In this passage, it almost seems like Peter is heavily focused on persecution of the Christians he's writing to... and then he just switches gears and talks about something totally unrelated. It seems that way, but it's not.

OPENING: When I asked you to turn to I Peter 3:13 this morning, did you realize that about 800 years ago… you couldn’t have done that? Do you know WHY you couldn’t have turned to I Peter 3 back then? Because there were no chapter divisions. That didn’t happen until 1227, ...read more

"never The Same Again" Series

Contributed by Clarence Eisberg on Aug 4, 2022

“You’ve got to be kidding me?” Have you ever heard those words? I think I would be saying when I read Acts chapter 9. Acts chapter 9 is the conversion of Saul who held the robes of the men who stoned Stephen, the first martyr in Jerusalem. You going to use this guy? And God says, “yes”.

Can A Deacon Deac? Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Sep 19, 2010

The Bible tells us very little about what Deacons were and what they did. And when these men do their jobs correctly they can become the most important leaders in the Church. What should a deacon do? And how does he become so important to God?

I Am Going Home To Be With The Lord – With Him Forever Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jul 27, 2022

I am going home to be with the Lord. Heaven is all about the Lord Jesus and to be absent from the body will be then in His presence. Are you looking forward to meeting your Saviour or do you love the earth better? Jesus waits to welcome you. Those ideas are developed.

I AM GOING HOME TO BE WITH THE LORD – WITH HIM FOREVER Currently this is just a devotion I presented to a group site. It will be developed into a full sermon in the future. Written mainly on Sunday morning at 3 AM when I woke with the ideas (given by God of course). 12 June 2022. EYES THAT ...read more

Amertume (Bitterness) ---- French

Contributed by James Dina on Sep 13, 2020

"L'amertume, c'est comme boire de la mort-aux-rats et attendre que le rat meure" (John Ortberg Jr.). Elle contribue à la maladie physique et ne nous permet pas de connaître la paix que Dieu veut pour nous. Vivez en paix avec tout le monde (Romains 12:18).

Be Still Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Feb 7, 2016

People seem to be afraid of silence. They do anything to fill their lives with noise and avoid the emptiness. But God says "Be still and know that I am God." What can that mean to us and how can we go about doing it?

It Is Well With My Soul Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Nov 8, 2020

Among all the conquering heroes of Hebrews 11, God introduces us to those who suffered, struggled and died for their faith. Why would God tell us the stories of those who didn't "succeed"?
