Hurry Sickness Series

Why Are We Dependent On The Spirit For Renewal

Contributed by Paul Fritz on Oct 23, 2001

Why are we dependent on the Spirit for renewal? He renews with His love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, gentleness, faithfulness and self-control. Only His renewal makes us sufficient for life’s challenges.

Titus 3:5 Theme - We are continually dependent on the Spirit’s ministry of renewal. Why are some believers lacking a fresh sense of cleansing, hope, and love? Freedom from sin’s oppression requires a continual application of the Spirit’s grace. Illustration: Sometime back the Associated Press ...read more

Moving Into Harms Way - With God's Blessing Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Jul 13, 2005

Jacob and his family move to Egypt, knowing that they will face hardship. Yet God also promised to go with them and bring them. He makes the same promise to us if we will go the place of worship, peace, and refreshment.

Has God ever instructed you to go into a place where you knew eventually there would be suffering? I’m not sure that’s happened to any of us - and I am even less sure that knowing that fact would help us in any way. But in doing so we fulfill God’s plan not only for us but for His purposes on ...read more

Stories Of The Stones

Contributed by Steven Shubert on Sep 30, 2004

Jesus told the Pharisees that, "If these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out." I wonder, what sort of story would a stone tell us, if it suddenly discovered a voice of its own?

I. Introduction A. This passage has often been misinterpreted that, should the people hold their peace, then the Lord would cause the very stones to begin to praise Him. 1. In Matt. 3:9 and Luke 3:8, we find John the Baptist preaching in the wilderness; he declares “...That God is able of these ...read more

The Seventy Weeks Of Daniel Series

Contributed by Gregg Strawbridge on Apr 27, 2006

The popular dispensational view, or the “Home Alone” view is that these things allegedly deal with ten nations arising from the European federation, the Antichrist, a revived Roman Empire, a seven-year peace treaty with national Israel, and the Great 666

INTRODUCTION In my two experiences of ordination, in both cases I was challenged on eschatology, the study of end times issues. First in 1990 from a dispensational perspective - I was not committed to the pretribulation rapture, because I could not see it in Scripture. In about 1992 I became ...read more

With An Expected End In Mind

Contributed by John Dickey on May 16, 2006

That’s where you’ll find your peace – when you know Him and believe Him, when you know that despite desperate or discouraging circumstances, the end of the story is coming and it’s perfect.

It was a low point for Abraham, perhaps the lowest. The ‘father of faith’ was despairing. You see, he had heard the voice of the Lord while living in Ur –a place where the moon god (now known as Allah) was worshipped. But, the true and living God had spoken to him, telling him to ‘forsake ...read more

The Devil Has A Plan For Your Life

Contributed by Paul Fritz on May 6, 2005

God’s plan promises love, joy, peace, and fruitfulness, but too few people choose correctly. Instead, they subtley surrender to the devil’s plan for their lives and suffer as Adam and Eve did in the garden. Nine points.

The Devil Has a Plan for Your Life (Gen. 3:1-20) Jesus said, "The thief comes only to steal, slaughter, kill and destroy, but I came that you might have life and have it abundantly." (John 10:10) The devil sought to distract Eve and Adam from the goodness of God. They enjoyed 99% of the desires ...read more

We look at the adoration on the faces of Mary and Joseph the worship imprinted on the shepherds and the wise men. The wonder that images of angels provoke in us. And we see the Nativity as a sweetly pastoral moment’s peaceful and serene forever frozen in

Codebreaker Series

Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Feb 8, 2017

The bible is difficult to interpret at times. it’s a codebook, which if used well, can help us decipher the enigmas of life, fight the right battles, know the real enemy and bring us peace with God.

CODEBREAKER I found it fascinating when I discovered he was a Codebreaker in the war. He looked somehow smaller now and curled up. I prayed for him, sang to him as light filtered through the window onto his old wrinkled brow. The movie “The Imitation Game” talked about Codebreaking in ...read more

That Great Getting Up Day!!

Contributed by Jimmy Haile on Mar 31, 2013

Ephesians 6:10 – 18 reads, “Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

Forward In Faith: The Good News Of The Gospel Series

Contributed by Dean Courtier on Aug 14, 2014

Do you know what it feels like to have the peace of God guarding your heart and your mind in Christ Jesus? Do you know that you have been accepted into God’s family?

THE Good News of the Gospel Let me start with a question: Do you enjoy hearing bad news? I assume this morning that there is one thing we all have in common - we all want to hear good news.
