    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Jul 18, 2024
     | 1,275 views

    “Whoever humbles themselves like this little child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven”. It is giving up claims to power and status and knowing one’s total dependence on God that counts as greatness in the kingdom of heaven.

    Sermon: The Path to Kingdom Greatness Scripture: Matthew 18:1-11 “About that time the disciples came to Jesus and asked, “Who is greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven?” Jesus called a little child to him and put the child among them. Then he said, “I tell you the truth, unless you turn from your sins ...read more

    Demonstration Of Royal Service Series

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on May 1, 2024
     | 520 views

    Jesus had so little time left for His disciples to learn that the way to glory is through service and not through position and authority.

    Just before tonight’s passage, as recorded in Luke 22 and Mk. 10, the disciples had been arguing over who would hold the leading positions in the government Jesus was about to set up. The discussion was heated. They were caught up in the ambition for position and power and authority. Surely this ...read more

    Are you saved? Are you Spirit filled? Are you sanctified? How about submissive to Gods’ authority or to those in authority around you? Are you suffering for Christ sake or are you just suffering? based on John MacArthur's "Found: God's Will"

    Last week we started looking at the question “What is Gods’ Will for me? And we saw the very first thing that; 1. In order to be in God’s Will I must first be saved. There is no Will without a personal relationship with Jesus Christ… 2. God’s Will is that I be Spirit ...read more

    Experiencing The Miracle Of Transformation

    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Jul 7, 2022
     | 3,210 views

    In changing the water into wine, Jesus demonstrated his authority over all things down to the smallest molecule. This was a miracle for transformation designed to convince the disciples of who he was. Water doesn’t change its molecular makeup without the authority of the Creator.

    Subject: "Experiencing the Miracle of Transformation" Text: John 2:1-11 The next day there was a wedding celebration in the village of Cana in Galilee. Jesus’ mother was there, 2 and Jesus and his disciples were also invited to the celebration. 3 The wine supply ran out during the ...read more

    based on 9 ratings
     | 16,039 views

    Paul taught that the corrupt ways of the world was totally incongruent with the life that is in Christ. The Apostle Paul asks some searching questions to point out the absurdity of Christians trying to straddle the spiritual fence in their daily life.

    Abstaining from Worldly Associations Text: 2 Cor. 6:14, 17-18 Intro: Though Second Corinthians 6:14 & 15 “…are often applied to various sorts of alliances (e.g., mixed marriages, improper business associations), Paul’s primary association was probably ecclesiastical." Though the principles ...read more

    People take notice and the growth of the Jesus movement blows up. People in Israel begin to realize Jesus is something special in the history of the universe. And they want to know more. We should still want to know more today. Who was this Jesus? Why did he do what he did?

Sam does not like the groomer, because of the loud noises, and the strange environment. So Sam was shaking as the groomer worked. Sam was uncertain, ...read more
