    The Roman Catholic Church has a 3-step process to being recognized as a saint. Daniel 12 shows the Bible’s 3 steps to sainthood. Saints aren’t extraordinary Christians who do miracles. Saints realize their sins, trust their Savior, and share their Savior!

    Saints Triumphant Daniel 12:1-3 Maybe you have heard the buzz these days in the Catholic Church about saints and sainthood. As I’m sure you’ve heard, the current pope isn’t doing too well health-wise, and before he passes away, one of the things he’s determined to do is to get this woman called ...read more

    Paul could have easily boasted on how he had it all together and everything he had accomplished, but as soon as he wanted to boast, God gave him a thorn to remind him that it is wasn’t about him. What is a thorn? Thorns are any form of physical issues, hu

    This is the 31st sermon in a series on the Book of Genesis. In this sermon we examine how faith is shown by what you do rather than what you think or say.

    Obedient Faith (Genesis part 31) Text: Genesis 17:15-27 By: Ken McKinley Well we’ve been in Genesis for quite a while now. And this is our 3rd week on Genesis chapter 17. We’ve been looking at Abraham, and we’ve already seen how he had spent 86 years of his life not being a ...read more

    God has called us to be constantly fanning the spiritual flames inside us, and it is up to us to train ourselves to make the Spiritual Disciplines part of our routine, or lifestyle. This sermon is a variation on my "Pursuing Purity" teaching.

    It Never Crossed His Mind Again

    based on 1 rating
     | 1,399 views

    Although Jesus was and is fully God, He was and is fully man. He can feel what we feel because, as the Word says, He was “…in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin” (Heb. 4:15). We are going to look at how His faith was tested, but He did not sin – not even one time.

    IT NEVER CROSSED HIS MIND AGAIN TEXT: HEBREWS 12:1-3 INTRODUCTION: We are told to “consider” Jesus, Who “endured the cross” and despised “the shame.” He endured the shame because of, “the joy that was set before Him.” He is the beginner and finisher of our faith. He walked the way of faith first ...read more

    A study of the Beatitudes. Jesus begins His sermon on the mount answering the question: "What will it take to make you happy?" His answer, however, is far different from the way most people will answer. In fact, his answers appear to bring sorrow, not happiness.

    It says in verse 10, “Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power.” Verse 10 is the end goal. If we obey all the instructions in verses 11-20, we will have the solution, which is to "be strong in the Lord."
