The Kingdom Come Series

Contributed by Larry Turner on Feb 22, 2013

In the Garden of Eden sin decided to invade and seperate man from the Kingdom rule of God. However two thousand years ago Jesus came to re-establish that Kingdom rule through us. The Kingdom has come and the battle has begun.

Sermon preached after a presentation by New Horizons. We are beginning a series on Kingdom living today. Often when we hear about the Kingdom of God or the Kingdom of Heaven we envision a future Kingdom that will one day either take us up to it or will descend upon us.

Noah's Ark: A Symbol Of God's Sovereignty

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jul 2, 2023

The idea for the design and building of the Ark did not originate in the mind of Noah. The Ark was God's idea and preconceived plan of rescue for anyone who would enter to escape the wrath to come. God has everything under control and will bring everything to a conclusion on His terms.

The Bible says that Noah built the Ark, but did not come up with the idea. The Ark was from the mind and heart of God. If God had not spoken to Noah, he would have died in the flood along with his pagan neighbors. Genesis 6:8 says that Noah "found grace in the eyes of the LORD". This ...read more

Praying Like Jesus

Contributed by John Lowe on Aug 20, 2014

"Our Father" I find it interesting here that Jesus would teach us this phrase because Jesus Himself never uses that phrase."In heaven" Jesus reminds us here that we are not approaching an earthly father that is limited in his capabilities or his presence.

Gideon Defeats The Midianites Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Aug 29, 2022

The Israelites invited Gideon to become their king and to found a dynasty, but he refused, telling them that only God was their ruler (Judges 8:22–23).

Two Women, Two Testimonies, One Glorious Lord Series

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 9, 2021

Mark 5:21-43 tells of the healing of two women who received new lives when it seemed all was lost. Each one was a living testimony of the miracle-working power of the Lord Jesus Christ.
