    Christ’s Cross And Our Cross

    Contributed by Rajkumar Pulla on Mar 22, 2011
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,673 views

    The cross today is a vivid symbol of a great past victory that involved horrible pain and crucifixion. When we see our shiny crosses that symbolize this past event, we must also remind ourselves that it was really an “Old Rugged Cross”, as the song says,

    He who does not take his cross and follow after Me is not worthy of Me. He who finds his life will lose it, and he who loses his life for My sake will find it” (Matthew 10:38-39) What happened at the college called Virginia Tech in the eastern United States, was simply terrible. It appears that a ...read more

    Job gives to us three foundational truths that keep us believing that God is good when circumstances read the other way.

    On The Wings Of Eagles Series

    Contributed by Robert Leroe on Sep 1, 2013
     | 9,953 views

    We need reminders to wait on God, to hope in Him. When we do, our strength will be renewed. By our own resources we will never achieve satisfaction or serenity. Trust in God produces confident expectations and a meaningful life.

    In a Peanuts cartoon, Charlie Brown has a moment of reflection after losing a baseball game: “When I am down and out, I lift up my head and shout, ‘I’M DOWN AND OUT’!” People without God, who see life as a cosmic accident, have no Higher Power when life hurts. W ...read more

    Nehemiah was a man of prayer. A man with a heavy heart because something in his world was unchanged. Nehemiah 1:1-4

    The Bible is full of them, from Moses all the way to Paul, every single one of them changed their world around them. I have many favourite stories in the Bible but the most amazing one I have read yet is about a man named Nehemiah. Nehemiah wasn’t a priest, prophet, warrior, or a king, he was ...read more

    The best way to stay away from defeat is to avoid the things that make you susceptible to defeat.

    Are You Vulnerable? Judges 18:1,2,7-11,27,28 The book of Judges is an unusual book. It is a book that seems to be constantly recording the downfall of Israel. It records for us the failure of Israel to make progress. In chapter 18 we find the tribe of Dan seeking a settlement in the land of ...read more

    Evangelism 2

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Oct 1, 2013
     | 3,842 views

    What is our motivation for evangelism? Are we safe in our "cocoon" of personal salvation or do we see the lost people of the world as those who are truly in danger of an eternity without the Lord?

    Last Sunday we took a look at some of the attitudes we need and which we might encounter as we seek to tell others about the salvation that can only be found in Jesus Christ. We need to be ready for some “push back” - preconceived ideas We need to be ready to engage the “down and ...read more
