    Fellowshipping With The Father And The Son - Part 10

    Contributed by Chuck Brooks on Jul 30, 2020
     | 1,799 views

    The true mark of a believer is that you love the brethren.

    1 John 2:9 He who says he is in the light, and hates his brother, is in darkness until now. 1 John 2:10 He who loves his brother abides in the light, and there is no cause for stumbling in him. 1 John 2:11 But he who hates his brother is in darkness and walks in darkness, and does not know where ...read more

    Fellowshipping With The Father And The Son - Part 11

     | 1,388 views

    John is telling us that we become the “little born ones” of God when our sins have been forgiven. Sins are forgiven when one trusts in the finished work of Jesus Christ on the Cross.

    John is called the “Apostle of Love.” In his first epistle he expresses love for his readers much like parents express love for their children. A young teenage boy had just gotten his driver’s license. When he got home, he asked his father, who was a minister, if they could discuss the use of the ...read more

    Fellowshipping With The Father And The Son - Part 12

     | 1,569 views

    Even with a strong knowledge of the Word and a close relationship with the Father, you and I are still susceptible to being tempted by and succumbing to the allures of the world and its lust of the flesh, lust of the eyes, and the boastful pride of life.

    (1 John 2:12 NKJV) I write to you, little children, Because your sins are forgiven you for His name's sake. (1 John 2:13 NKJV) I write to you, fathers, Because you have known Him who is from the beginning. I write to you, young men, Because you have overcome the wicked one. I write to you, ...read more

    John wants his readers to know that if any loves the world as a habit of life, the love of the Father is not in him.

    1 John 2:15 Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 1 John 2:16 For all that is in the world; the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life; is not of the Father but is of the world. 1 John 2:17 And ...read more

     | 2,017 views

    Jesus can bring all of humanity back together in His community, in His Church, in His Kingdom.

    The prophet Jeremiah has a really bad rep. Of course, his prophetic book doesn’t help that much when one of his most famous prayers to God is “Thou hast deceived me, O Lord, and I am deceived: thou hast been stronger than I, and thou hast prevailed. I am become a laughing-stock all the day, all ...read more

     | 7,681 views

    The Sunday gathering of Christians for worship and fellowship is so important. In this sermon, we are challenged to make the Lord's Day a high priority in obedience to God.

    Introduction: A. The story is told of two men who were fishing one Sunday morning and when the fish weren’t biting they began to feel guilty about skipping church. 1. One man said, “I guess I should have gone to church rather than gone fishing.” 2. The other man replied, “Well, I couldn’t have gone ...read more

    God plans to bring this fallen world, governed by apparently random and sometimes, chaotic events and disruptions in nature and human life, into a unified cosmos over which Jesus Christ will be King.

    Sons Or Slaves? (Trinity Sunday 2024)

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on May 23, 2024
     | 893 views

    Did you notice what Paul did in this text? Paul speaks about the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit as he reminds that if we are God’s children, then we are also heirs---joint heirs because we are adopted sons and daughters of God through what Jesus did for us on the cross.

    SONS OR SLAVES? Text: Romans 8:14 – 17 Rom 8:12-17 So then, brothers and sisters, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh— (13) for if you live according to the flesh, you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.

    Contributed by Dr. Bradford Reaves on Jul 26, 2024
     | 950 views

    Many talk about Jesus or celebrate Jesus, and they like to believe that it assures them of a spot in Heaven. What did Jesus say about this?

    Dr. Bradford Reaves CrossWay Christian Fellowship Hagerstown, MD www.mycrossway.org As we continue through the parables, I realize that this is one of those parables that has always confounded me. It confounds me not because of the application but because of the theology. Most tried to impose ...read more

     | 388 views

    James, the son of Zebedee, began as a fiery, ambitious disciple but grew into a mature and devoted servant of Christ. His life teaches us the importance of transformation, sacrifice, and unwavering faith.

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Jun 9, 2025
     | 290 views

    Jesus is the full expression of the Father’s heart. Through Him, we come to know God personally and intimately. But Jesus did not leave us alone—He sent the Holy Spirit to continue this ministry of revelation.

Samuel Arimoro Main Text: John 14:8-17 Supporting Texts: Hebrews 1:1–3, Colossians 1:15, Matthew 11:27, John 10:30, Romans 8:14–16 INTRODUCTION: In John 14:8–17, we witness a profound moment in Jesus’ conversation with His disciples. ...read more

    In this passage, Paul reveals our glorious new identity in the Spirit: we are no longer slaves living in fear, but adopted children of God and co-heirs with Christ.

    Over the past two weeks, our journey through Romans 8 has established foundational truths for our faith. We began by celebrating the verdict that sets every believer free: "There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus". Then, last week, we explored the ...read more

     | 333 views

    Jesus used a familiar Jewish story to show who the true children of Abraham are. The only bridge across the chasm of sin is the cross and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

    (Father Abraham and Lazarus) If you could overhear a live conversation between heaven and hell, would you lean in? Many people read Jesus’ story of the rich man and Lazarus as though He lowered a microphone into the afterlife to let us hear a dialogue across eternity. For centuries preachers ...read more
