    based on 11 ratings
     | 13,477 views

    Through this passage one can understand that Abraham was justified before he was circumcised and before the Law was given. Circumcision and legal obedience are not necessary conditions of justification

    ROMANS 4:9-15 THE FATHER OF THE FAITHFUL Paul has proven that Abraham was not justified nor forgiven on account of his good actions. But what was the nature of the Covenant made with Abraham? Was the promise made on the condition of faith, or on the condition of circumcision, which was the ...read more

    This sermon will focus on the difficulty of saying no to the flesh. Even though we have rules and law, they are no match to stop us from choosing our fleshly desires.

    Background • Review Genesis 25; twins yet born completely opposite (lost/saved) • Parents show favoritism, and this will lead to a divided family. When we come to chapter 27, Isaac is around 137 and both boys are in their middle 70’s. • This sermon will focus ...read more

We do not spend a lot of time out there and Mike does a great job maintaining everything. We noticed something that we had not noticed before. ...read more

     | 5,294 views

    We often live in bondage when as followers of Christ we have been set free. Learn again to declare your independence from the law of sin and shame, from self, and from Satan.

    Our Declaration of Independence (Gal. 5:1, 13-14) 235 years ago tomorrow the Declaration of Independence was signed. It was a day in which the thirteen colonies of New England finally decided to break from their motherland and begin their journey as an independent nation. It certainly wasn’t ...read more

    Who Is Your Authority – God Or The Government?

    Contributed by Christopher Hill on Jan 1, 2004
    based on 31 ratings
     | 3,928 views

    ? As Christians, we are not to feel as if we are not bound by the law and authority of earthly government because we are citizens of another kingdom. Instead, we should demonstrate our respect for the heavenly King by being subject to earthly authority.

    Night after night, week after week, and month after month Gregory Dixon Jr., pastor of Indianapolis Baptist Temple, along with other men of the church held a vigil. This wasn’t a typical vigil, however. These men sat up each night drinking coffee, eating donuts, and playing cards. They didn’t ...read more

    Self-Sufficiency Series

    Contributed by Dan Cormie on Aug 20, 2011
     | 5,419 views

    Men require community of each other, beyond that we need the provision of God - air to breath, organs (over which we have no control) to function, water, land, food and so much more. Our God is completely unlike us in this - living eternally without need

    Dakota Community Church August 21, 2011 Self-Sufficiency Jeremiah 9:23-24 This is what the LORD says: “Let not the wise man boast of his wisdom or the strong man boast of his strength or the rich man boast of his riches, but let him who boasts boast about this: that he understands and knows me, ...read more

    Looking At My Lifeline: A Story Of Hope

     | 579 views

    As a kidney patient, I have to rely on a dialysis machine to perform the functions that my kidneys are no longer able to do. Dialysis is my physical "lifeline". However, I have a greater lifeline in the Lord Jesus Christ who keeps me alive in every way.

    I have been dealing with progressive kidney failure for nearly five years and the effects upon one's body that come with it. I've endured numerous trips to doctors, specialists, nutritionists, and other experts who have been more than helpful in getting me through this rough spot in my ...read more

    The Book Of Galatians – Chapter 4:8-11 - Message 14 - Do Not Become Wallowing Sows In Bondage – Protect Your Freedom In Christ Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jun 1, 2024
     | 224 views

    The Galatians had exchanged the bondage of idolatry for the bondage of the Law. False teachers promise freedom but chain their adherents in bonds. Our freedom in Christ must be protected. Do not use your freedom as an excuse to sin.

    THE BOOK OF GALATIANS – CHAPTER 4:8-11 - MESSAGE 14 - DO NOT BECOME WALLOWING SOWS IN BONDAGE – PROTECT YOUR FREEDOM IN CHRIST [PART A] Galatians 4:8 However at that time, when you did not know God, you were slaves to those which by nature are no gods, Galatians 4:9 but now that you have come ...read more
