    The Truth About Evil and Good INTRODUCTION We live in a world where what is good and what is evil are determined by what suits us. We see it all around us.

    In this sermon we define faithfulness and talk about how to develop it.

    Introduction: A. For several weeks now I have been trying to communicate something about God’s faithfulness. 1. Hopefully we all are grasping and internalizing some of the things I’m communicating. 2. But we all know how difficult communication can be. 3.

    What About Homosexuality?” Series

    Contributed by Ed Taylor on Dec 22, 2008

    Living in the unrepentant lifestyle of homosexuality is just as spiritually deadly as living in the unrepentant sins of thievery, lying, adultery, and fornication.

    1. Few, if any of us, would argue against calling STEALING A SIN. a. The same for LYING, ADULTERY, FORNICATION, & OTHERS. b. And if not sin, there is still a remnant in our society that would see these activities as wrong… definitely not right. WHEN WE come to the Bible, there’s no question… these ...read more

    Our King Jesus Easily Abandoned Series

    Contributed by Allan Quak on Apr 9, 2018
     | 6,396 views

    As Jesus makes his way to from the Last Supper to the Cross he is abandoned. Abandoned by the disciples who fall asleep. Abandoned by Judas who betrays him. Abandoned by Peter who denies him. Despite this abandonment Jesus does not abandon us.

    Message Luke 22:39-62 Our King Jesus Easily Abandoned Here is a Scripture that many people find to be a great encouragement. We do not have a high priest who is unable to empathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are—yet he did not sin. Hebrews ...read more

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Aug 1, 2025
     | 188 views

    We are studying the third soil in the Parable of the Sower and now consider the reasons why the good seed gets choked by thorns. How many of us know someone who walked as a strong Christian but just departed the faith? It is a complex matter and we try to see why that happens.

    PARABLES OF THE KINGDOM – THE FIRST - THE SOWER OR RATHER THE SOIL – Part 4 of 5 In the last message we did the seed that fell on the rocky soil, and we also did some of the seed that was choked by thorns. We will finish that choked seed this time. Let us revise the relevant verses from last ...read more

    We have all sinned. We’re all displeased by sin, and that disease is fatal. Perhaps these are some of the same things that drove this young ruler in the Bible to seek advice and counsel from Jesus Christ.

    What are people looking for? The same as young man in the Bible. There is a restless among people, especially among youth today; there’s a feeling of emptiness and dependency, a sense of guilt. There’s a strong desire for an ideology that will give meaning to our existence. We have all sinned. ...read more
