     | 3,418 views

    The problem is, however, that too many Christians are walking around with blinders on or those rose colored glasses that cause everything to look like Christ and they refuse to look at reality.

    Repeat the sermon title. Now let’s think about this before we answer. Your answer may be simply; “There ain’t but one ya big dummy! And that’s the one I foller!” But are you sure? If you really look around, you’ll see; if you will but open your eyes you’ll ...read more

     | 5,095 views

    Does Jesus feel our heart? Does he understand the emotions of my heart? My thinker, chooser and feeler. How far does his compassion go? What can we do?

    Feel my heart Hebrews 4:14-16 14. Seeing then that we have a great High Priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession. 15. For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize (be touched by the feelings of our infirmities) with our weaknesses, ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 14,065 views

    Christ's cry, It Is Finished, was not a cry of despair but of glorious victory. Christ's sacrifice was stainless, perfect, complete. Also, Satan and the powers of evil received a death blow from which they never will recover.

    The Cry of Victory In John 19:30 we read, “When Jesus had received the drink he called out with a loud voice, it is finished!” In the original Greek language of the New Testament this phrase, it is finished, is one word of 10 ...read more

    There is a sense we are all like the Church at Pergamum living where Satan has his throne. We are all in this fallen world where Satan has his throne. You must Stand for Christ in this fallen world.

    Message to the Church in Pergamum, Revelation 2:12-17 Pergamum is the third church of the seven churches in Christ’s messages to the churches that John saw in his revelation while on the Island of Patmos.
