Thanks To Calvary

Contributed by Ronnie Miller on Apr 12, 2012

Well, the Easter Bunny did his job and has gone back to doing whatever Easter bunnies do. I suppose they dye eggs, weave baskets or maybe program their GPS for next Easter egg delivery to all the kids in the world. What a nice rabbit to bring things to c

Thanks to Calvary Isaiah 53:3 He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not. 4 Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of ...read more

Water Of Life, Tree Of Life, Throne Of God And The Lamb Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Mar 24, 2019

This section describes what could be called the “New Eden.” What the first Garden of Eden was supposed to be is fulfilled here. What Adam and Eve would have had if they had not fallen is what is given to God’s people. Adam and Eve lost paradise; here, God has remade it.

Be Holy... Mission Impossible?

Contributed by Paul Davidson on May 22, 2017

Be Holy… How is this even possible? I have a difficult time just being a decent husband and father. How am I supposed to be as holy as God Himself? I’m just human. I make mistakes. Why am I being commanded to do something that seems to be impossible?

Please turn in your Bibles to 1 Peter 1:13-22… [READ] Our key verses this morning are verses 15-16… “15 but like the Holy One who called you, be holy yourselves also in all your behavior; 16 because it is written, ‘You shall be holy, for I am holy.’” Be Holy… How is this even possible?

Palm Sunday - God's Love Is The Message!

Contributed by Melvin Newland on Apr 7, 2020

I suppose the most infamous "almoster" in history would be Pilate who almost released Jesus. He wore the signet ring that proclaimed hIs right to do it. All he had to do was speak decisively, & Jesus would have been free.

Be Not Afraid Of Their Faces

Contributed by Rodney V Johnson on Sep 30, 2023

Has God ever told you to deliver a message to someone but when you saw their face you became nervous about what you were supposed to say? This message is about how God directed Jeremiah to move beyond his fear of those he would be prophesying to.

Be Not Afraid Of Their Faces Scripture: Jeremiah 1:4-8; 17-19; John 5:19, 30; 7:16 When I reflect on the messages that the Spirit has given me over the last few weeks, I can’t help but wonder what is He preparing us for?

You're Invited! Rsvp Required!

Contributed by Dean Shriver on Jun 1, 2006

It’s unusual to get an invitation from the White House. I suppose it’s more unusual still to turn that invitation down. But a far greater invitation has, in fact, been offered to you and to me. Matthew 22:1-14 tells us about it. It is an invitation th

The Christian - The Judgement Seat Of Christ – Part 3 Of 3 Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jun 27, 2025

Sin will keep us from reward and that is looked at. A problem considered – What happens about unconfessed sin at the Judgement Seat of Christ? I suppose in conclusion, we should have our lives tidied up, work for Christ in love, not a desire for reward. The Lord bless and keep us all!

The Power Of Your Testimony

Contributed by Paul Fritz on Apr 26, 2003

"Suppose you stay at home and tell my why you are a Christian." The man, knowing he couldn’t match wits with Huxley, hesitated. But the agnostic said gently, "I don’t want to argue with you. I just want you to tell me simply what this Christ means to you.

The Problem With Racism Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Jan 24, 2025

During the days after the Civil War up thru the 1960s, there were many "Christians" in the U.S. who embraced bigotry and mistreated the black people around them. Why would supposed Christians do that, and how do we protect ourselves from that kind of evil?

Martin Luther King Jr. Day was last Monday (1/20/25). He once said: “The time is always right to do what is right.” Today, our sermon is going to be on racism, not because I think any of us are racist - but because, as Christians, we need to know what the Bible says about it. Martin Luther ...read more

If I Am A Man Of God

Contributed by Michael Stark on Jan 31, 2020

I suppose the term "man of God" means different things to different people. However, we have the account of an individual who was called a "man of God" and commanded to respond to a king's command. Because he was a man of God, certain characteristics marked his life.

“After the death of Ahab, Moab rebelled against Israel. “Now Ahaziah fell through the lattice in his upper chamber in Samaria, and lay sick; so he sent messengers, telling them, ‘Go, inquire of Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron, whether I shall recover from this sickness.’ But the angel of the LORD ...read more

Sadness In God’s Heart

Contributed by Samuel M on Jul 8, 2023

God is sad looking at our lives. We relax or hide when we are supposed to go to battle. When we need to hide, we go to war. We are off season and out of season with God. We preach when we have to pray. We pray when we have to preach.

When Men Touch God

Contributed by William L. Vincent on Aug 6, 2011

She wasn’t supposed to be the focus of the story. But she pressed her way toward the what was her last hope. You see she realized a very important spiritual principle – she said: “If I can just touch Him…” The miracle begins with a touch.
