Jacob's Three Journeys

Contributed by Rodelio Mallari on Jan 11, 2012

Life is a journey with the Lord. How far have we gone? Where have our striving taken us? Our entire life should be one continuous seeking of God’s will, worship experience, and giving of praise to God for everything.

Intro: On journeys and pilgrimages (Examples). See I Pet. 2:11; Heb. 11:13; Gen. 4:12. (Cf. believers and unbelievers). Read Gen. 47:9.

Thunder In The Mountains, Silence In The Soul

Contributed by Carl Greene on Jun 21, 2010

Elijah the great prophet shows us his humanity when he panics after a triumphant encounter with Baal worshipers. But God never gives up on him, God feeds him, shelters him, and speaks to him, not in the thunder, but in a still quiet voice.

Ever been caught in a disaster? Chances are that all of us will be at some point, whether it’s a personal crisis or something more widespread such as a tornado or an earthquake.

A New Covenant

Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Jun 24, 2018

Before Jesus can bring about the New Covenant He must ride into Jerusalem as was prophesied by Zechariah. The Temple courts have become a market of greed and gain instead of a place of spiritual discourse. What has worship become in our day and age?

Message: Today we turn to the Old Testament to once again reveal the events of the New Testament. We are nearly there, nearly at Jesus Triumphal Entry into Jerusalem, nearly seated at the Last Supper, nearly gathered in prayer at the Garden of Gethsemane. We are nearly at the time of Jesus ...read more

Today is certainly a special time as we assemble to remember the lives and contributions of members of this community who over the years have gone to be with the Lord. 2.)

The Dust Is Turned To Lice Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Jul 22, 2022

This Plague came from the land, as the two former came from the river. Aaron "smote the dust of the earth, and it became lice (“Kinnim”) in man, and in beast"(ver. 17). This was a new blow at Egyptian idolatry because the earth was worshipped as well as the river.

The Dust is Turned to Lice (Exodus 8:16-19) Exodus 8:16-19 (NIV) Then the LORD said to Moses, “Tell Aaron, ‘Stretch out your staff and strike the dust of the ground,’ and throughout the land of Egypt, the dust will become gnats.” They did this, and when Aaron stretched out his hand with the staff ...read more

The Present Heaven Series

Contributed by Davon Huss on Nov 16, 2014

Sermon # 44 - He Dwelt Among Us Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Jul 21, 2023

The tabernacle, the temple, the sacrifices and worship in the Old Testament were all pointers to the coming of the Saviour, who would dwell among men. See how beautifully this plan of God unfolded so mankind could be saved from their sins, and have life eternal.

We read in John 1:14, And the Word became flesh and tabernacled among us. And we beheld His glory, glory as of an only begotten from the Father, full of grace and of truth. (LITV) The above mentioned verse expounds how the Word became flesh, and made his dwelling or tabernacle among us. If we ...read more

The Message

Contributed by Melvin Maughmer, Jr. on Aug 13, 2025

Israel had become complacent, apathetic, mediocrity had become the norm, spiritual laziness ran rampant, worship continued but wonder was lost praise without passion was perfected. Just like today when God sent His messenger named Malachi.

The Message By Bishop Melvin L. Maughmer, Jr PRAYER SCRIPTURE: - Malachi Chapters 1 - 4 OPENING: - So often in Christendom we get comfortable with tradition and mediocrity, and we become complacent with how things are.

Few things evoked unmitigated fear and near national panic as the image, you see in front of you. Known by some as hemorrhagic fever, this deadly disease is better known as Ebola.
