    When we forgive others, we are also setting ourselves free.

    Whether we love it or hate it, we all will be familiar with Coronation Street, UK’s longest running soap opera. I am not much of a television watcher, but I do have a soft spot for the street. One reason is that the characters are like real people. They have flaws and blemishes, they do not wake ...read more

    Sin isn’t just disobeying the “thou shalt nots” of the Bible.

    Have you ever gotten in trouble for something that you didn’t do? Now I know that everyone at one time during his or her childhood was probably wrongfully punished for something that they didn’t do.

    A Non-Repayable Debt Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 25, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 3,009 views

    All people owe a non-repayable debt to the Lord. If He dismisses our debt, then we should extend the same courtesy to any of our debtors. If Jesus forgives us; we should forgive others. Our debt is forgiven through faith in Christ.

    I have entitled our message this evening “A Non-repayable Debt,” and we will be looking at what is commonly called, “The Parable of the Unforgiving Servant.” “John Oglethorpe, in talking to John Wesley, once made the comment, ‘I never forgive.’ Mr. Wesley replied, ‘Then, Sir, I hope that you ...read more

    Why Should I Work So Hard?

    Contributed by Kevin Ruffcorn on Mar 25, 2005
    based on 3 ratings
     | 2,677 views

    Hard work has limited appeal if its only purpose is to accumulate riches or make us more comfortable. Work becomes meaningful when it is seen as service and as ministry.

    Romans 12:1-8 “Why Should I Work So Hard?” INTRODUCTION Things were going so good immediately following the creation. God had placed Adam and Eve in an idyllic situation—a garden that supplied everything that they needed. God took care of them, and the concept of work was as far beyond ...read more

    How does one become a disciple of Jesus Christ?

    How does one become a disciple of Jesus Christ? A common response from many who claim to be Christians is that "all you have to do is believe." The Bible clearly teaches that faith is essential to be pleasing to God (Hebrews 11:6), but it never says "all you have to do is believe." There are many ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,189 views

    When we talk about surrendering to God we think of those who give Him one tenth of their income, or who become foreign missionaries. This account of Abraham reveals that God desires every believer to surrender everything - even their very life.

    I SURRENDER ALL? PART 2 God desires absolute surrender from every believer. Genesis 22:9-19 Introduction What do you trust in? 1. Money? What if you became the victim of identity theft and you found your bank accounts emptied and your credit destroyed? 2. Career? What if your company suddenly ...read more
