Faith Comes By Hearing

Contributed by Chris Talton on Jan 27, 2003

What Does God Say About The Sanctity Of Life?

Contributed by Larry Moyer on Jan 5, 2011

A sermon developed especially for Sanctity of Human Life Sunday.

Main Idea – God so loves people that what starts out as a cell He wants as a child. Every one of us would agree that one of the biggest mistakes in life can be addressing the peripheral issues but not addressing the deeper items. And it can happen in almost every area of life. For example, ...read more

Have You Confirmed Your Reservation In Heaven? Series

Contributed by David Dykes on Sep 5, 2013

Jesus is preparing a place for us. But don’t imagine a private room with walls and a door you can lock. There will be no need for locks in Heaven. Think about sharing a big house with all the other Heavenly Family members—more like a bed and breakfast.

INTRODUCTION In a cemetery in Indiana there’s a tombstone that has an epitaph with the intent to make people prepare for death. It says, “Consider, friend, as you pass by. As you are now, so once was I. As I am now, you soon shall be. So prepare, my friend, to follow me.” Someone ...read more

God's Desire For His People

Contributed by John White on Oct 3, 2019

To understand the full import of the words we will consider today we must apply the simple rules of Bible analysis. The letter is written by Paul to those who are saved, baptized and in fellowship in the assembly. But the letter is obviously a personal letter from God to His people.

GOD'S DESIRE FOR HIS PEOPLE I Thess. 4:13-18 "But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring ...read more

Don't Join Murderous Gangs (Proverbs 1:8-19) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Apr 6, 2022

Gangs can make you quite the offer: power, wealth, and community. But join, and you'll end up dead. The passage turns into a broader appeal to avoid ill-gotten gains.

Introduction Although my wife Heidi and I have been married for less than 5 years, we’ve moved a lot in that time period. We’ve lived in three states, 3 apartments, and two houses, and we feel a bit like gypsies without a real home. Heidi and I met up in Manitoba at Providence Bible College. ...read more

Nine Tests Of Prophecy Series

Contributed by Richard Tow on Apr 26, 2021

Gullible believers can be misled by false prophecies. We are told in Scripture to judge all prophecy. This message equips Christians with nine tests to determine whether a prophecy, dream, vision, etc. is from God.

During the last two messages, we have addressed the need to judge prophetic ministry. Last week we learned from the story in 1 Kings 13 where the failure to judge a prophecy cost a man his life. It led him astray, and he was killed by a lion. Jesus warned about the increase in deception that ...read more

I'm Not Going To Miss You Series

Contributed by Chuck Gohn on Jun 30, 2022

This sermon continues to focus on Solomon's melancholy view of life and his conclusion to: "Remember God in the days of your youth" because there will come a point where you will no longer remember or enjoy very little.

The passage we will be looking at today is kind of a lengthy one. It is Ecclesiastes 11:7 going all the way down to Ecclesiastes 12:8. This particular chunk of passage is actually considered probably the last words that Solomon wrote at least in this book. Even though there are words that ...read more
