    A Study Of "The Day Of The Lord” In The Scriptures – All References Part 5 – Amos, Obadiah Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Sep 26, 2022
     | 1,906 views

    For those in the Tribulation (who were not raptured) they will find no escape from the wrath of the Lord. Now is the time to be saved. The destruction that was coming of Edom is that same destruction that is coming on nations in the Tribulation. More descriptions - light and darkness.

    A STUDY OF “THE DAY OF THE LORD” IN THE SCRIPTURES – ALL REFERENCES PART 5 – AMOS, OBADIAH The DAY OF THE LORD is “The Day of Jehovah” and its usage is always associated with something dire, with judgement, and with events outside the implementation of man. In other words, it is the intervention ...read more

    Motivating The Complacent Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Jan 7, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,175 views

    When a ministry grows, there will be those who will hear of the great harvest taking place; but when they see the work that it entails, they will wait for someone else to do the job, hoping to benefit from the hard work of others.

    When we communicate a compelling vision for our church and community, we will start seeing people join our fellowship. They will hear of the blessings of the Promised Land and want to become a part of it; however, not everyone will partake of the rewards. It won’t just happen automatically ...read more

    Are There Different Types Of Sinners? Series

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Nov 13, 2022
     | 2,447 views

    We know that there are a multiple of sins that can be committed, but is the classification of the sinner designated by the type of sin that he commits? Or are there different types of sinners? Are any of us one of those types of sinners and if so, which one?

    Romans 1:18 – 3:20 fosters Paul's contention that nobody can guarantee by their own work or legitimacy to be good in God's sight, not the majority, not the Romans, not even the Jews. All individuals wherever merit God's judgment for their wrongdoing. We know that there are a multiple ...read more

    At The Poverty Line Series

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Nov 24, 2022
     | 1,497 views

    Being financially secure, being well educated, having the respect and admiration of your neighbors, none of those get you credit in God’s kingdom. We’re all charity cases there.

    Are you happy? If not, what would it take to make you happy? For most people, happiness seems to have something to do with our circumstances. In our youth-obsessed culture, perhaps we feel we have to look backward to imagine happiness. “What is happiness?” and “How can I get happiness?” are two ...read more

    "Have A Believer’s Eye For Blessings”

    Contributed by Michael Otterstatter on Feb 21, 2022
     | 1,437 views

    In our sermon today we will hear our Savior say that those who are poor, hungry, weeping, and persecuted are blessed. We need him to open our eyes to see how that can be so!

    The prophet Elisha was a wanted man. The king of Aram (a nation to the northeast of the Holy Land) was at war with Israel. Aram is also called Syria and it was pretty much in the same area as modern-day Syria. But Elisha was frustrating all of his battle plans. Through God’s power ...read more

    Daniel Shined Because He Knew How To Pray Through A Problems Series

    I need to get busy developing my prayer team. Those two or three people that I can share my prayer concerns with and know that they have my back and I have their back.

    Introduction The Bible tells us that we are to give all our problems to God. Small problems, medium size problems, and those horribly large problems we face are to be turned over to God. 1 Peter 5:7 (NIV) Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you. But the truth is, we think many ...read more

    A Generation Of Worshippers

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 6, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,726 views

    Who may ascend the hill of the Lord and worship? The answer is those who are of the generation of Jacob. The term “Jacob” is a general classification for any generation in which many people turn to God and seek to worship Him.

    We’re going to begin our message tonight by reading through our passage of Scripture, which is Psalm 24:3-6: 3 Who may ascend into the hill of the LORD? Or who may stand in His holy place? 4 He who has clean hands and a pure heart, who has not lifted up his soul to an idol, nor sworn deceitfully. ...read more

    Two Masters Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Jul 31, 2022
     | 4,263 views

    No one can serve two masters, particularly those whose orders are directly contrary to one another: otherwise, if they were the same or both agreed, both might be served, but this is rarely the case and seldom done.

    Sermon on the Mount - Matthew 6:24 (Two Masters) 24 "No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money. No one can serve two masters, particularly those whose orders are ...read more

    Be Kind To The Disabled Series

     | 6,646 views

    Those who are disabled can challenge believers to be more authentic in their Christian faith and love. This message shows how a blind man was able to challenge the disciples and a crowd of people who were following Jesus.

    My family attended two Baptist churches in Danville that were unusually, yet refreshingly, filled with a love for those who are disabled. We saw the deaf, for which a sign language interpreter was provided. We also saw those with some sort of mental handicap, and those with a wide range of physical ...read more

    Death From Christians Perspective Series

    Contributed by Rev. Dr. Andrew B Natarajan on Nov 22, 2021
     | 3,240 views

    Some deaths people treat as a “tragic end”, but for some deaths, people say “well-earned rest”. Our judgments are not true because those are based on outward known deeds. Death reveals mysteries.

    Message for Memorial Day – Theme: DEATH in Christian Perspective Text: 1 Corinthians 15:56 The Diagnosis A woman accompanied her husband to visit a doctor. After his check-up, the doctor called the wife into his chamber. He said, "If you don't do the following, your husband will surely ...read more

    What blessings does God give us when He makes us "children of the King," and why would anyone want to try steal those blessings away from us?

    After the death of Elvis Presley it was fairly common to read headlines in Tabloids: “I was Elvis’ Love Child” or “Elvis’ Ghost is My Father”. Many people claimed to be related to “The King” either for the prestige or for the possibly of getting a share of his inheritance. A radio station in ...read more

    Visionary View: Don't Hide In Plain Sight Series

     | 1,478 views

    When we choose not to hide in plain sight, we become catalysts for change. Our visibility allows God's love to flow through us, touching the lives of those around us.

    "Visionary View: Don't Hide in Plain Sight" Today, we delve into the concept of not hiding in plain sight, a vital message rooted in the New Living Translation of the Bible. Matthew 5:14-16 (NLT): "You are the light of the world—like a city on a hilltop that cannot be hidden. ...read more

    Sermon # 6 - Image Of God Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Jun 5, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 969 views

    Human beings are created in the image of God and the question is, ‘How are we representing the Lord as His children?’ Only those who understand their true identity in Christ will be able to reflect Him the way they should.

    We read in Matthew 22:20, He asked them, “Whose is this image and inscription?” (WEB) Jesus asked many questions to people in several situations, and we are meditating on a few of them. The question that we are considering is from the above mentioned verse where Jesus asked “Whose is this image ...read more

    Joshua 14, Caleb's Birthday Request! Series

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Jun 17, 2024
     | 2,158 views

    Caleb and Joshua were the only two Israelites of those aged 20 and older to survive from Kadesh-Barnea to Canaan. Caleb, on his 85th birthday, asked for his inheritance--a mountain!

    Introduction: Caleb. He’s truly one of the unsung heroes of the Bible. He and Joshua were the only two of the twelve spies who gave Israel a “we can take the land!” message when the other ten said, basically, “we’ll lose everything if we try to do it. (Numbers 13-14)”. As a result, every Israelite ...read more
