     | 2,895 views

    The parables of the lost are all about lost sinners returning to the Lord. There is also another message in these parables that give us direct access to God, if you only but look.

    Prayer: My I speak in the name of the father, son and holy ghost, and let the words of my mouth and the meditation of our hearts be acceptable in your sight, Amen, Thanks Martyn. On a different note, today’s sermon is on the parables of the lost sheep, the lost coin and the lost son. … Last ...read more

    Was A Pre-Tribulation Rapture Taught Before The 1800's?

    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on May 3, 2022
    based on 4 ratings
     | 2,488 views

    There have been numerous teaching surges of the "Rapture" and what happens at the return of Jesus over the last 50+ years that have brought confusion and fear.

    Most often, the teaching of a Pre/Mid tribulation ‘Rapture’ re-appears during times of world crisis, social upheaval, pandemics, war, rumors of war, etc., to help bring focus on the soon-coming return of Jesus, who will stop it all and set up His Kingdom on Earth for 1,000 years. The Second ...read more

    You cannot read the New Testament without seeing that any person who names the name of Christ is called to live on the high level of returning good for evil.

    Introduction: This morning we come face to face with a practical problem confronting everyone here; namely, overcoming our resentment toward people we don't like. In our scripture today, Jesus suggests the higher call of Christian discipleship is not how well we get along with our friends, but ...read more

    Will You Give Him Thanks? PRO Sermon

     | 182 views

    Gratitude transforms our lives; when we return to thank Jesus for His mercy, we experience deeper wholeness and the richness only gratitude can bring.

    Some of the most powerful moments in Scripture begin with a simple cry for help. Think about it: a whisper becomes a waterfall, a sigh becomes a song. When weary people raise faint voices to heaven, heaven hears. In Luke 17, ten tired men lifted ten shaky prayers. They were outcasts, pushed to the ...read more

    Re-digging the wells of revival means returning to the foundational truths, spiritual fervour, and deep hunger for God that once brought His power and glory to His people.

    RE-DIGGING THE WELLS OF REVIVAL By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Genesis 26:18-22 Key Verse: “And Isaac digged again the wells of water, which they had digged in the days of Abraham his father; for the Philistines had stopped them after the death of Abraham: and he called their names after the ...read more

     | 4,215 views

    The transfiguration of Jesus looks backwards to Moses and Elijah, and looks forward to Jesus' passion, ascension and return. The transfiguration is significant for Jesus, His apostles, and all of us.

    Introduction: A. What are the most glorious things you have ever seen? 1. The birth of a baby? A breathtaking sunset? The pounding ocean surf or the shear force of the water going over Niagara Falls? 2. As glorious as those things are, none of those things can even come close to the glorious ...read more

     | 1,021 views

    The prophets in the Old Testament, the Psalmist and John the Revelator tell the story of the day of the Lord. The day of the Lord will be the time, Christ return to judge the world and consummate all things.

    Sermon: The Day of the Lord Will Come Luke 17:26-37 “When the Son of Man returns, it will be like it was in Noah’s day.

     | 157 views

    The Final Call proclaims God’s everlasting gospel, unmasks deception, and anchors believers in worship, resurrection hope, and patient endurance until Christ’s return.

    God’s Last Word Is Gospel We all know that in life, the last word carries weight. In a courtroom, hours of argument and piles of evidence are settled with one sentence: “Not guilty” or “Guilty as charged.” At a wedding, all the flowers, music, and vows lead to that one moment: “I now pronounce ...read more

     | 1,703 views

    John the Baptist laid out a specific message that gives us the mission to bring confession and repentance into our life to keep us prepared and ready for the return of Jesus.

    TRUE REPENTANCE HATES THE SIN, AND NOT MERELY THE PENALTY; AND IT HATES THE SIN MOST OF ALL BECAUSE IT HAS DISCOVERED AND HAS FELT GOD'S REDEEMING LOVE. I THINK BILLY GRAHAM MADE AN INTERESTING COMMENTARY ABOUT SINFULNESS AND HOW SUCH SINFULNESS HAS BEEN LIKE A DISEASE RUNNING RAMPANT IN OUR ...read more

    We often move away from God without noticing it. We all need to return to Him, approach Him and reconnect with Him. This needs to be periodic

    We often move away from God without noticing it. Let us return to Him, approach Him and reconnect with Him. God always wants us to be in close fellowship with Him, since the days of Adam in the Garden of Eden. Our sins keep moving us from Him. We often withdraw ourselves from Him in our mind (our ...read more

    Revival starts where one heart turns—opening closed doors, cleansing hidden sin, and welcoming the Spirit’s rain until joy returns again.

    Introduction — The Long Wait for Rain Sometimes revival doesn’t arrive with thunder. Sometimes it seeps in quietly—like rain through hard, cracked ground. For years we may live with the crust of complacency, calling it contentment. We tell ourselves that the season of power is past, that we’ve ...read more
