The Sermon On The Mount (Part Two) Series

Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Aug 12, 2019

We started looking into the beatitudes last week by seeing how being poor in spirit, mourning and being meek are things that bring blessing into our lives. Today we continue by looking at how we are blessed by hungering and thirsting for righteousness and being merciful.

THE SERMON ON THE MOUNT (part two) Matthew 5:6-7 Beatitudes mean declarations of blessedness. The term blessedness means joy. Therefore, the state of blessedness would be a state of joy, which is more than just happy. Blessedness refers to the distinctive spiritual joy of those who are saved. We ...read more

2 A Full Believer Overcomer Series

Contributed by Kent Kessler on May 26, 2025

What kind of life do you want to end with when you leave it? When you leave this life and enter the next one, what do you want to have to show Christ for it? We need to begin with the end in mind. We need to be people who fully believe in Jesus to be an overcomer in this life.

Ignorance of God’s character and law often renders our loving feelings toward our neighbors empty or misguided.

Rose Colored Glasses Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Sep 15, 2005

The blush of first love wears off quickly for the children of Israel as God brings them some small tests to see how much they will trust Him. How much do you trust God? We also see the keys to spiritual warfare demonstrated.

New love is always interesting. We used to have a saying "you’re looking through rose-colored glasses." It meant that no matter how the other person was in reality, they always looked "rosy" to you because you were in love. Having rose colored glasses is a danger sign for a relationship that needs ...read more
