  • The Forgotten Work Of Discipleship Part I Series

    Contributed by Terry Frazier on Mar 1, 2014
     | 6,959 views

    The Church needs to refocus on discipling new believers and we aren't doing that very well. Mature Christians need to spend more time and energy on growing new believers so that they can go out and become disciple makers. That's the point of Christianity.

    The Forgotten Work Of Discipleship Part I What do you suppose is the main goal of being a Christian? Is it the forgiveness of sin? Is it to become a better person? Is it to do good things for other people? What about being a better husband or a better wife? What about being a better Mom or Dad? ...read more

  • The Unrequited Love Of God

    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Apr 1, 2019
    based on 5 ratings
     | 7,789 views

    The passionate love of God is the blazing fire at the heart of all creation. God thinks about you every moment of every day. His love will never vary or change. That God would love even the vilest of sinners is the greatest mystery of eternity.

    God has commanded that every human being love Him with EVERYTHING in them (Deut 6:5). The GREAT commandment supersedes all others. Sadly, in the lives of too many Christians, God’s love is unrequited. There are some Christians who are not comfortable with the way God truly feels about them, so ...read more

  • The Altar

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Nov 5, 2020
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,729 views

    In The Church of The Nazarene we have what we call altars but they are altars of prayer not true altars on which a sacrifice can be made. Why do some churches have altars of sacrifice while others do not? What does the Bible say?

    The Altar Please stand with me as we go over our current memory Scripture: Psalm 1:1-2 “Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked or stand in the way of sinners or sit in the seat of mockers. But his delight is in the Law of the LORD, and on His Law he meditates day and ...read more

    This is a rewrite of Dr. Jwt Spies great sermon. Bartimaeus began to shout as Jesus passed by. His shout brought him into Jesus' presence and he received sight. Begin this new year with a shout!

  • The Plumb Line

    What is our standard of holiness? As individuals, do we compare ourselves with others? As a church, do we compare our ministry with the congregation down the road? These are mistaken comparisons, as Jesus is our true standard.

    Michael Green, in his book Illustrations for Biblical Preaching, shares a good lesson which I think is appropriate for beginning our message this evening. He states, All of us frequently compare ourselves favorably with someone else. We all think of someone whom we consider to be less mature, ...read more

    Most people believe they will go to Heaven when they die. It is the great future promise of God to every human being. However, Jesus said He was the only way to get there.

    Christianity is the only religion that sets forth the Creator of the Universe as love.
