     | 4,865 views

    Whether it is our nature or not, God sometimes calls us to flex and adjust to change, but He gives us the strength to do so.

    The Return Trip That Was Diverted Thwarted Christmas Plans series (Matthew 2:13-15, 19-23) 1. I love stories like this: (UPI) An alleged robber at a Florida convenience store picked the wrong potential victim when the man he threatened with a BB gun turned out to be a former WWE wrestler.

    Many of us may have to make the ultimate sacrifice, to lay our last full measure of devotion on the altar of Freedom, but that freedom will be precious bought and well won. The outcome is certain. Good will conquer over evil in time, and even beyond time.

    CHAPTER 12 1. And a huge sign appeared in heaven, a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars; 2. and she was pregnant, and cries out in labor pains, even the pains to give birth 3. and another sign appeared in heaven, and look, a red dragon, ...read more

     | 3,962 views

    No man is an island. We all have families, friends, communities, organizations, or places of employment. We run into all kinds of people, and Proverbs helps prepare us to deal with the more challenging ones ("works of art").

    It’s A Jungle Out There (Proverbs 26:2, 13-16, 18-19, 27) 1. Maybe you have heard this one before. A couple were going on a vacation to Florida together, but the wife had an emergency at work.

    We need to be serious and zealous about who we elect to positions that substantially influence our life.

    Opening Prayer: Father God, we thank you for this day and praise your holy name. Lord, we know that we will be a light for the world. We know that we often forget or ignore our responsibilities and do not live up to all that you command. Forgive us for falling short of your expectations. We ...read more

    The Final Hours Of The Lord Jesus -From Golgotha To The Grave (For Now) Series

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jul 19, 2021
     | 2,190 views

    The Lord Jesus is in His last moments of agony and pain, both physically and spiritually as He completes His mission of redemption for fallen humanity. It looked on the surface, however, like a victory for his enemies and the devil as He died and was placed in a borrowed tomb, or so it would seem.

    (Adapted from an outline by Mark A. Copeland) Following a night and morning of torture, ridicule, and mockery, Jesus was taken away to be crucified (Mark 14:53-15:25). For six long, horrendous, cruel hours He hung on the cross, and to add insult to injury, He heard the continuing mockery ...read more

    encouraging the church to rise up and do whatever it takes to rescue the Lost from Destruction.

    RESCUE THE PERISHING! Proverbs 24:10-12 The heart of these 3 verses is the burden on the believers to rescue the lost and keep them from going to Hell. These verses are a cry to rise up and do whatever we can to bring them to Jesus. 1. A SPIRITUAL CONDITION. Prov 24:10 If you are slack in the ...read more

    Worthy Is The Lamb! (Revelation 5)

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Feb 8, 2024
     | 1,175 views

    The Lord Jesus Christ has all things and events under His Divine and Sovereign control. He has the final word on how everything will conclude. No amount of evil on the world's part will stop Him from His mission to "make all things new".

    I sometimes think that when we study the book of Revelation, we tend to focus upon the impending judgments of the wicked and the horrendous consequences that follow. While God's wrath is certainly a major theme of the book, we must remember that the book of Revelation is also a book of ...read more

    never take for granted the victory over sin that Christ has won for us. Never underestimate the devil. He’ll oppose us at every opportunity. Never give up in the fight against sin and evil. But always remember the power of God and the armour with which he

    We come today to the end of our series of sermons on the book of Ephesians. One of the things I hope you’ve noticed as we’ve gone through this book is the breadth of Paul’s horizons.
