    When we get saved, each of us is given our own piece of Holy Spirit fire.What we do with that fire after that is up to each individual. Either we keep it burning brightly or let our fire go out.

    The Resurrection is a bodily resurrection. This is what the Apostles were witnesses of and were to proclaim. They proclaimed this based upon the testimony of Scripture.

    Do You Have Anything for Me to Eat? Luke 24:33-49 Introduction Jesus had just appeared to Cleophas and another disciple at the little village of Emmaus. We know that it was already evening on the first Easter Sunday. These disciples had walked about seven miles. Yet they were so excited about ...read more

    “I Can’t Breathe” has become a rallying cry following the murders of Eric Garner and George Floyd. Many people are feeling strangled by fear and hatred right now. We need Jesus to breathe on us and that we may breathe.

    Text: John 20:19-22 (KJV) 19 Then the same day at evening, being the first day of the week, when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled for fear of the Jews, came Jesus and stood in the midst, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you. 20 And when he had so said, he shewed ...read more

    Power and anointing on Jesus was the result of Jesus being shut with His Father all through the night, after He walks out of His prayer closet, He makes some crucial decisions of selecting 12 disciples for His ministry.

    Lord, teach us…. Luke 11:1 “Now it came to pass, as He was praying in a certain place, when He ceased, that one of His disciples said to Him, "Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught his disciples." The anointing of prayer, rubbed off on His disciples too, as they pleadingly ...read more

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Sep 14, 2023
     | 1,307 views

    The righteousness of the natural man is sick and putrid and corrupt. All have sinned and not one seeks God or pursues righteousness. What does “good” really mean? The whole body is sick with sin, and evil rapidly spreads.

    ROMANS CHAPTER 3 VERSES 9-13 - MESSAGES IN ROMANS – AS IT WERE; STINKING SOUR MILK AND PUTRID ROTTING FRUIT - MESSAGE 9 We continue these messages in the third chapter of Romans. Paul reveals many unpalatable facts but it is God speaking so we must heed what God says! Always heed what God says ...read more

     | 7,066 views

    The would-be servant of God, whether waiting at table, ushering at the door, distributing to the poor, or preaching the gospel, must be of a blameless character and reputation.

    THE CHRISTIAN CHARACTER OF STEPHEN THE MARTYR. Acts 6:1-15. It is interesting to commemorate one particular saint who gave his name to a Street, a Road, a Church, and a bench (!) in Norwich, and I dare say in other cities too. Stephen is rightly acknowledged as the first Christian martyr, a ...read more

    The narrow gate is not quite as attractive as the wide one, because you have to leave a lot of old baggage at the door. No carry-ons are allowed.

    I was a pastor in New Jersey when the General Assembly gave our Presbytery a couple of pretty controversial amendments to consider. There were two main issues. The first was the elimination of the “fidelity and chastity” language from our ordination standards. The second one was the lordship of ...read more

    Sometimes we need not be in such a rush to get out the door of the church but mediate and reflect on what you just heard and ask the preacher questions.

    Verse 41-43-How we get away from Jesus Notice Mary and Joseph were in hurry to get home. They did not linger there in Jerusalem. They had accomplished their religious obligation and did not want to hang around the church house any longer than they had to. (To eat Sunday Dinner. To watch the ...read more
