    Funeral sermon for those who seek to ask the infimous question "why?".

    I have the distinct privilege to take part in this occasion that honors the life of Uncle John.

    The principles of Christianity were so deeply entrenched in the establishment of America that one must conclude that without Christianity, there would never have been a country such as the United States of America. This nation is the first nation in all o

    “ONE GOD, ONE COUNTRY, ONE DESTINY.” Eph. 2:13-16 Int: It was the spirit of Christianity that changed the face of the ancient world.

    Sermon on beginning of Third Article of Apostles' Creed: "I believe in...the Holy Christian Church, the Communion of Saints."

    About this time last year the world was gearing up for the Summer Olympics in London. We were eager to find out if Usain Bolt would win another gold medal when he ran the 100m dash. He did. Bolt is an incredible athlete but he doesn’t strike me as a team player. Then again you don’t ...read more

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Mar 16, 2025
     | 195 views

    Personal evangelism is a divine assignment that every believer must embrace. One-on-one witnessing is a powerful tool for winning souls, as it allows for personal engagement and addressing individual concerns. Jesus, the apostles, and early Christians used this method effectively.

    PERSONAL EVANGELISM: ONE-ON-ONE WITNESSING By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: John 4:29 "Come, see a man, which told me all things that ever I did: is not this the Christ?" Supporting Texts: Matthew 28:19-20, Acts 8:30-35, Romans 10:14-15, 2 Timothy 4:2, 1 Peter ...read more

    Don’t worry when nothing happens as expected! Don’t worry when you don’t get a royal welcome and you are given cold shoulder treatment, despite you being in the will of God!

    Look around and hang on! Acts 16:9 “And a vision appeared to Paul in the night: a man of Macedonia was standing there, urging him and saying, "Come over to Macedonia and help us." Don’t worry when nothing happens as expected! Don’t worry when you don’t get a royal welcome ...read more

    "One Man For The One Man”

    based on 3 ratings
     | 7,180 views

    Jesus says to do is what the man could not do, what he had tried for 38 years to do. On what basis does Jesus say these words to him? It is important to see that. Somehow this man senses what that basis was.

    Romans5:18-19 MSG Here it is in a nutshell: Just as one person did it wrong and got us in all this trouble with sin and death, another Person did it right and got us out of it. But more than just getting us out of trouble, He got us into life! One man said no to God and put many people in the ...read more

    Sometimes, the only way that we can get the answer to our prayer is to get alone with God and wrestle long enough to get the victory.

    GOING ONE ON ONE WITH GOD By Pastor Jim May How many of you love being in a crowd? I suppose the answer to that question would depend upon what we are calling a “crowd”. For some folks, a crowd consists of anything more than 2 people. For others, the more people there are, the happier they ...read more

    A message comparing the horrifying attributes of hell to the wondrous goodness of heaven.

    I read a news article the other day that said over 50% of society believes in a heaven, but less than 40% believe in a hell. There is a discrepancy in those numbers because everyone wants to go someplace good, and we all recognize that heaven is a good place. Likewise, we do not want to go any ...read more

    Salvation is for everyone; even those who don't resemble us. With Christ’s help, we can put aside the partiality that binds us, and love people as He does.

    Most of us like to assume that we're enlightened, tolerant, and unprejudiced people. Unfortunately, a new study reveals many of us have a hidden bias against anyone with a foreign accent. According to a summary of the study in The Wall Street Journal, "The further from native-sounding an accent ...read more
