How Do You Explain The Trinity? Series

Contributed by Brian Bill on Jun 24, 2019

The foundation of the Trinity is rock solid. It will never shatter or splinter. The Trinity is not some addendum or appendage hanging precariously from the building of the Gospel. No, the Trinity is the foundation of the gospel and without the Trinity there is no Gospel.

The Hardest Chapter In The Bible Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 3, 2021

Finding sermons on this chapter is like trying to find children who eat no candy on Halloween. They are rare. It is filled with too many puzzles and mysteries. It is one of those sections of Scripture that people hope will go away if they ignore it,

The Power Of The Tongue

Contributed by Dennis King on Jul 10, 2021

There have never been words spoken more powerfully than in the beginning when God created the heavens and the earth.

Correct Connection In Christ

Contributed by Dave Kinney on Jul 12, 2004

If taught correctly these verses will encourage our security in Christ! The Believer in Christ ought to be the most secure person with their relationship with God. Sadly, it seems just the opposite. So it’s time that changes!

Every person has been put on this planet for two reasons, first, to know God and secondly, to show that God in their life! So basically, everything less is just a waist of time! The average Christian doesn’t know the difference between union with Christ and communion with Christ: (verse 5 is ...read more
