    Acts 11:26 says that the disciples of Christ were first called “Christians” at Antioch. In fact, “Christian” is just 1 of many names for God's people in the New Testament. This sermon on the 1st and most fundamental name for God's people: “Believer."

    We seem to keep Jesus crucified and dead and buried except for two days of the year, on Christmas, when he’s born, and on Easter, when he raises from the dead. If that’s what you think, I would like to change your mind about that.

    He Got Up Introduction: We seem to keep Jesus crucified and dead and buried except for two days of the year, on Christmas, when he’s born, and on Easter, when he raises from the dead.

    Message 2 in a series through James that helps us explore the relationship between faith and works in our lives. James was the half-brother of Jesus and the leader of the church in Jerusalem.

    The great British playwright Oscar Wilde once said, “I can resist everything…except temptation.” Has a truer statement ever been spoken?

    The Passionate Pursuit Of Effective Prayer.

    Psalm 3, presents another side of the biblical picture of faith in which the neat, tidy, well ordered theology of Psalm 1 and 2 gives way to a theology that allows for the realities of life– realities that include struggle, injustice, abuse, doubt, fear, and the testing of our faith.

    The Passionate Pursuit Of Effective Prayer. Psalm 13:1-6 Jenny and I left our house early to be with our parents for Thanksgiving, 1996. As we left I noticed our next door neighbor’s silver van was parked in his driveway. My neighbor and I had gotten close. I didn’t know that he was a different ...read more

    Following Jesus can get you killed. God warns us that the enemy is near, large, dangerous, but temporary. Christian, hold on. In the end we win.

    Revelation, the Grand Finale of God’s Word Chapters 12-14 Lesson 6 Heaven’s Horrible Enemy Here on Earth Are you old enough to remember when we feared an atomic holocaust?

     | 188 views

    God’s grace empowers joyful generosity, enabling believers to give willingly and abundantly, even in hardship, as an expression of trust and partnership in God’s work.

    Friends, welcome. Some of us walked in today with a full heart and a thin wallet. Others with a strong budget and a weary soul. God sees both. And right in the middle of our ordinary lives—with bills to pay, kids to raise, parents to care for, and newsfeeds that rattle the nerves—God offers a grace ...read more

    This sermon reassures us that God guides the steps of the righteous and will never abandon us. He will not lead us astray or forsake us.

The psalmist testifies that throughout his life, he has never seen the righteous forsaken or their children ...read more

    The great hope of the Church is that Christ will come and rapture us to heaven before death intervenes. However, if death comes first, then we shall be resurrected and given glorified bodies like Jesus on the day He does return.

    “The Sacred Encounter” John 1:1-18 Introduction Ever since returning from a recent pilgrimage to Jerusalem I have been keenly interested in the Crusades.

    based on 1 rating
     | 2,643 views

    There is the lifeline that connects our communion with the Lord but we can slip and fail, and so we slip down that lifeline of communion. Many of the great men of God failed but were wonderfully restored in the comfort of God. What can we lose as we slip? How do we return?

    SLIPPING DOWN THE LIFELINE – BUT NOT TO THE END (we hope) Tales are told of people in rescue attempts trying to hold on to a rope in the stormy sea or raging river and over time their grip lessens and through fatigue they slip further and further down the rescue rope until they disappear.

     | 2,102 views

    Isaiah passages about the Restoration of Israel continue as we look at the great things God will do at the start of the Millennium when He will call back to Israel all the Jews saved in the Tribulation (called the remnant). This part of scripture is so neglected.

    THE FUTURE RESTORATION OF ISRAEL - PART 3 - SCRIPTURES IN ISAIAH We are studying the passages of scripture that feature the Restoration of Israel after the Tribulation when the Lord comes at the Second Coming and restores the nation.

    Divine rewards demand that we conduct our lives according to God's rules provided in His Word.

    I consider the initial verses of this chapter to be among the most significant verses of the book. They are, as well, perhaps the most neglected verses of the missive which Paul wrote. I confess that I am ploughing quite a narrow furrow in these expositions. Note that the Apostle appeals to ...read more
