Thank You For Serving!

Contributed by Je Layugan on Apr 11, 2022

Why is serving very important and what should be our motivation? The answers lie in that very powerful scene in which Jesus washed the feet of His disciples. Jesus mandated us to live by (symbolically) washing one another’s feet, (literally) serving one another.

The Dawn's Early Light

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Aug 15, 2009

Just as Key saw that the darkness is intense before the dawn, that during battle we see enough to know that our freedom is won, and that we are at our best when we claim freedom for others, so also at the empty tomb we learn of our freedom from sin.

The Shechemites Quarrel With Abimelech Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Jan 2, 2020

The Victory In Jesus Part 1: Gethsemane Series

Contributed by Perry Greene on Apr 8, 2019

Over the years I have paid little attention to Gethsemane other than it was where Jesus prayed before his arrest. However, Gethsemane is where the spiritual victory was won. If it had not been for what happened in Gethsemane, there might not have been a crucifixion or a resurrection.

Sermon # 8 - Grace, Justice And Righteousness Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Mar 26, 2025

It is true that God is gracious, but it is equally true that God is just and righteous too. This was perfectly demonstrated by Jesus when He paid the penalty for the sins of all mankind on the cross of Calvary. Those who believe on the Lord Jesus will enjoy His grace and live in His righteousness.

We read in Jeremiah 9:24, “If any want to boast, they should boast that they know and understand me, because my love is constant, and I do what is just and right. These are the things that please me.
