God's Remedy For Stress Series

Contributed by Andrew Schroer on Mar 12, 2001

By suffering the punishment of our sins, God has given us a lasting remedy for the stress caused by guilt.

Stress. Anxiety. Pressure. It comes in many forms. The cry of a baby at 3:00 in the morning. A huge presentation at work. A sound system that doesn’t want to work when you’re about to have your first services in Doral. The loss of a spouse. The news that your father has alzheimers. The ...read more

Consequences Of Forsaking The Lord

Contributed by Phillip Smith on Oct 11, 2025

All members of society suffer from the evils all around us. Why does God allow suffering and persecution to the righteous? Consequences for evil doings must be endured. Spiritual Blindness and Spiritual Adultery against God are some of the causes.

Evils come upon everyone. Some believe it is a part of life. Leaders speak of these evil behaviors as nothing to be alarmed over. Murders and other vicious crimes happen daily. Many more occur at different times compared to others; perhaps more are occurring here recently. 2 Timothy 3:13. 13 But ...read more

Madmen And Falling Towers

Contributed by Paul Wallace on Sep 13, 2001

When tragedy strikes where should we look? What would Jesus say to our hearts if we have ears to hear? Where would He have us focus our attention?

Madmen and Falling Towers 9-16-01 As I listened to all the comments and opinions about the horrible day this week in which the World Trade Towers fell I was disturbed. I was in shock at the sight and angry with the perpetrators but my spirit was troubled about something else. We will not forget ...read more

Look To The Crucified One And Receive Our Healing

Contributed by William Tan Yh on Sep 10, 2020

Sometimes we are tempted to think that life is so unfair. Where is God when we are suffering? We attempt to look at questions such as: Why does Jesus has to suffer and die? & What does the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ has to do with me?

Part 1 : Facts About the Crucifixion Crucifixion probably started first with the Persians but perfected by the Romans to inflict the maximum pain to the victim. Crucifixion was also the most disgraceful form of execution and cruel that Roman citizen will not be executed by crucifixion. ...read more

The Political Execution Of The Nazarine

Contributed by Dennis Bliss on Mar 22, 2005

A reflection on the intensity of the suffereing of the Savior and the need to imitate the repentant sinner and accept Jesus today.

The Source Of My Hope

Contributed by Mike Hays on Sep 30, 2001

In confusing times of tragedy and loss like many Americans are facing at the present time, it is hard to make sense of it all. The Psalmist gives us encouragement to seek understanding and confidence in the "sanctuary" of God’s presence.

The Source of My Hope Psalm 73 I heard on the news this past week that one of the outcomes of what has happened since the September 11th attack on America has been a rush on bookstores around the country. The sale of Bibles is up and that is good news. Alongside of this good news is the report that ...read more

Momentary Troubles To Eternal Majesty

Contributed by Lalachan Abraham on Jan 2, 2013

God uses trouble to teach His children precious lessons. They are intended to educate us. When their good work is done, a glorious recompense will come to us through them. There is a sweet joy and a real value in them. He does not regard them as difficult

Momentary troubles to Eternal majesty “For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory.” (2 Cor. 4:17). If there is one thing that this world is not short of it is troubles and disadvantages. But turning that adversity into ...read more

The Greatest Warning Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 15, 2021

The most dangerous thing a believer can do in life is to ignore what they have heard and neglect the great salvation they have in Jesus.

God began human history with a warning. He told Adam and Eve that if they ate of the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil they would surely die. Failure to heed that warning led to the fall of man, and failure to heed warnings has ever since led to all of the sin and folly of human ...read more

The Foundation Series

Contributed by Rev. Richard Norman on Jan 10, 2012

We can ask ourselves questions like, “Why do I exist.” With that questioning nature, we must ask at times, “why does the Church Exist?” It is not enough just to say “to glorify God.” While this is true, there is so much more to the question; “What is

In The Grips Of Crisis

Contributed by David Washburn on Sep 17, 2001

Coming to grips with God’s involvement and grace in times of tragedy and suffering.

An anniversary is a date marking a notable event. Birthdays and weddings mark notable events that are joyous, but all anniversaries aren’t joyous. Some anniversaries mark tragedy, suffering, and grief. My week began under that cloud because a week ago Saturday, September 8th, is one such date. It ...read more

I Have Fought The Good Fight

Contributed by Stephen Todd on Apr 11, 2003

This was a funeral message for a believer who had suffered a great deal with cancer.

Funeral October 9, 2002 One of the unique things about being a pastor in this denomination is the fact that very rarely do I do funerals for people I don’t know. Usually when I bring the message at a funeral service, I know the person for at least a few years. Because of this I don’t bring a ...read more
