     | 6,500 views

    Today as we look at Matthew 3:16-17, we will find that these verses describe Jesus Christ as a “chip off the old block” and these two small verses have much to say to us about Jesus Christ.

    A CHIP OFF THE OLD BLOCK MATTHEW 3:16-17 INTRODUCTION… 3:16s Thus Far (p) We have been on a journey since July as we have been looking at various 3:16s in the Bible: Exodus 3:13-17 shared with us the Name of God and that we can trust Him.

    We go about trying to live religious lives, but do we miss connecting with God in the process? Christianity is about relationship, not religion. And Jesus makes such a relationship possible.

    Luke 13:10-17 When Religion Blocks Relationship It was a day I will never forget. Our village had gathered at the local Synagogue to hear the word and receive teaching, to pray together, and to worship Yahweh, the one true God. On this day there was an unusual excitement in the crowd because we ...read more

    Solomon is not interested only in helping individuals construct a building to eat and sleep in, as important as that is. Instead, the word house is used to represent a happy home, a good family, a sweet life. Let's dare to build.

    Sermon - The Building Blocks of A Happy Home Scripture: Proverbs 24:3-4 “A house is built by wisdom and becomes strong through good sense. Through knowledge its rooms are filled with all sorts of precious riches and valuables.” Introduction: With so much division in the world, you may wonder, can ...read more

    This is a look at the 10 "Words" of "Commandments." This lesson is an overview of these vital words.

    1. Ted Turner has declared the Ten Commandments obsolete and stated, "We’re living with outdated rules. The rules we’re living under are the Ten Commandments, and I bet nobody here even pays much attention to them because they’re too old. When Moses went up on the mountain, there were no ...read more

    God entered into covenant 6 times and man failed every time. What makes this new covenant different and why does it matter to us?

    Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today in the sight of God to join together this man and this woman in Holy Matrimony. Marriage is a sacred and joyous covenant, which should be entered into reverently. Now, you may be thinking, “But Scott, it’s Sunday morning, we’re not here ...read more

    Jesus warns against abusing His "little ones." The study of this saying becomes vital to the welfare of contemporary congregations.

    “The disciples came to Jesus, saying, ‘Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?’ And calling to him a child, he put him in the midst of them and said, ‘Truly, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jun 21, 2024
     | 546 views

    The efforts of sinful man to obtain his own acceptance with God is no more than sin wanting to shake hands with holiness and to say, “We are the same, just a bit different in appearance.” Judah was found wanting, wicked and ready for judgement. God gave them to Babylon.

    You were created for a purpose. Purpose is the reason for which something is done or created or for which something exists. Myles Munroe said, When purpose is not known, abuse is inevitable. We should live purpose driven lives. God is a planner, and has good plans for us.

    Deepseated shame and objective guilt arise from a self-serving spirit, but the Cross delivers us from both and frees us to live out of gratitude.

    Mark it down. Memorize this. Engrave it somewhere. It is an ironclad rule. This will always happen: when it is the least convenient for you to respond, someone will want you to respond. When it is nearly impossible for you to get up and do what someone wants you to do, that is the very moment ...read more
