    Faith Is The Victory Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Sep 15, 2021
    based on 3 ratings
     | 5,026 views

    New Year's: Some things in life might feel like running a marathon when we’ve never run a mile before. We might feel this way about our New Year’s resolutions, or even our walk with the Lord. Faith can help us push ahead.

    The hymn writer John H. Yates said, “Faith is the victory! Faith is the victory! Oh, glorious victory, that overcomes the world.” In athletics, many things are touted as helping win the victory, from sports drinks to athletic wear. But can that NIKE swoosh really do anything? There is only one ...read more

    Teachings Of Titus #4

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 24, 2022
     | 3,558 views

    Good preaching and teaching INSTRUCTS, but also it MOTIVATES.

    In the previous sermon, Titus 2:1-10, Paul gave Titus some good INSTRUCTIONS to give to all age levels, from the elderly to the young. In this passage of scripture, he now gives them the MOTIVATION for why they should do these things. He does this by sharing the message of grace with them. He ...read more

    A Measure Of Faith Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 28, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 5,899 views

    When asking God for faith, we are correct in identifying that we need faith, or that perhaps we’re experiencing some kind of spiritual problem. However, we don’t need “more” faith. What we need is the faith already allotted to us.

    Our message for this evening is entitled, “A Measure of Faith,” and it’s taken from a passage of Scripture that’s sometimes called, “Faith and Duty.” Have you ever felt inadequate in your relationship with God, or perhaps in your ability to bear spiritual fruit? Have you ever felt that you don’t ...read more

    I want to preach to you about “Spiritual Alzheimer’s”. We hear a great deal today about this dreadful disease called Alzheimer’s Disease.

    Illus: They say this is the only disease that has a positive side to it. There are some “good” things that come from Alzheimer’s, such as: • You never have to watch reruns on television • You are always meeting new people • You can hide your own Easter eggs Illus: Three sisters ages 92, 94 and 96 ...read more

     | 2,460 views

    In the last sermon, we started dealing with the most dreadful time in the history of man - the seven years known as THE TRIBULATION PERIOD. This period of time will take place after the rapture of the church, and we are placed in our glorified bodies.

    Let’s take a minute to review what we talked about in the last sermon - I. THE PURPOSE OF THE TRIBULATION PERIOD We dealt with two things in the first sermon as to why God allows this time to take place on earth. A. TO PREPARE ISRAEL FOR THE MESSIAH They will be convinced that Christ is Who He ...read more

    What Is This Thing Called Love?

     | 1,095 views

    Love for God must always come before love for any earthly object of our affection.

    Everybody knows what love is, right? Love is what makes you sit up all night assembling the bicycle for your daughter’s birthday, or leave the board meeting early to make it to your son’s soccer game. Is that the same thing as the love that makes your mouth go dry and your heart beat fast when ...read more

     | 3,053 views

    We all know what sins are, but let me focus for a moment on those hindrances. Hindrances (Weights) are those things that may not be sins, but still keep you from living a life totally surrendered to God.

    What’s Your Focus? Hebrews 12:1-2NKJV We all know what sins are, but let me focus for a moment on those hindrances. Hindrances (Weights) are those things that may not be sins, but still keep you from living a life totally surrendered to God. Imagine you are at a track meet, and they’re lining up ...read more

    Where Is Meaning? Series

     | 1,881 views

    Today many are re-evaluating the lifestyle of seeking pleasure. The rich and famous are coming to the same conclusion of another rich and famous person Solomon, “meaningless”.

    People try all avenues to bring meaning and purpose to their life. I said to myself, “Come now, I will test you with pleasure to find out what is good.” But that also proved to be meaningless. (Ecclesiastes 2:1) You name any field, professional sports, business, politics and if you do just a ...read more

    Opening: Suppose you had a bank that credited your account each morning with $86,000 that carried over no balance from day to day. It allowed you to keep no cash in your account, and every evening canceled whatever part of the amount you failed to use during the day. What would you do with it? Of ...read more

    Using Money To Direct Our Hearts Series

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Jul 25, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,927 views

    Jesus tells us not to store up treasure on earth but to store up treasure in heaven. Doing that is certainly a much better investment! But an even bigger reason to do that is that where we put out treasure directs our hearts.

    We’re continuing in our series in the Sermon on the Mount and today we’re having the last talk in the series for the time being. Today, I’m going to focus on the first three verses of today’s passage, verses 19-21, and one phrase in particular. In v.19, Jesus says, ‘DON’T store up treasure on ...read more
