    We Are Overcomers Series

    Contributed by Doug Fannon on Jun 1, 2020
    based on 4 ratings
     | 12,663 views

    The way God measures victory and the way the world does is two different ways. We are called to be "super conquerors" in Christ.

    Who are we in Christ? This message today is for those “in Christ,” who know Jesus as Lord and Savior. Last week we considered that as a "New Creation in Christ," we are His workmanship (Epheisans 2:10), His work of art, His masterpiece. As his workmanship, as His masterpiece -what good ...read more

    Recognizing The Great Apostasy

     | 5,938 views

    The Bible tells us to stay strong in our faith and to always meet together as a church. But when we look around, it seems that more and more people are leaving the church. Why? This passage of Scripture explains the reason.

    In Hebrews 10:23-25, we read, “Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful. And let us consider one another in order to stir up love and good works, not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one ...read more

    Paul's Thorny Trial - Was It Sickness Or?

    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,637 views

    The issue of the Apostle Paul's thorn-in-the-flesh has been hotly debated for centuries.

    "And lest I should be exalted above measure by the abundance of the revelations, a thorn in the flesh was given to me, a messenger of satan to buffet me, lest I be exalted above measure" (2 Cor 12:7 NKJV) Some have held that this "thorn" was an eye disease that God ...read more

    Gird Yourselves And Lament

    Contributed by Mike Bryant on Feb 22, 2021
     | 1,821 views

    As Joel addresses a nation brought to its knees by a locust plague, he leaves us with a plan for surviving overwhelming disaster in our own lives. Broad outline borrowed from "The Day of Disaster," a sermon by W. Maynard Pittendreigh.

    I) In Joel 1:1-3, God through His prophet addresses a people faced with absolute calamity. A) He asks, “Has anything like this happened in your days, or even in the days of your fathers?” (NKJV). He says that the nation faces a crisis greater than any seen in generations (“or even in the days of ...read more

     | 5,189 views

    We see God's grace at work through Paul and Barnabas in Iconium, Lystra and Derbe. God is in the journey, in the tribulations and in the ordinary. We can trust in the sovereignty of God for the salvation of the lost.

    Good morning, everyone. Let us pray. We praise you, dear God, with all our hearts. We praise you for WHO you are and for WHAT you’ve done. Thank you, Lord for your presence in our lives. Forgive us for the times we have turned from Your ways and returned to call on you only when we are in ...read more

     | 1,777 views

    You cannot find where we are promised prosperity, but you will find many places where we are promised tribulation and persecution.

    Acts 14:19 And there came thither certain Jews from Antioch and Iconium, who persuaded the people, and, having stoned Paul, drew him out of the city, supposing he had been dead. 20 Howbeit, as the disciples stood round about him, he rose up, and came into the city: and the next day he departed ...read more

    Contributed by Gordon Pike on Jan 17, 2021
     | 3,919 views

    Whatever the Christians were going through in Smyrna … whatever we are going through in our lives right now … Jesus not only knows what we are going through, He’s experienced it Himself.

    Imagine having to hide to do what we’re doing right now because if we get caught, we would be arrested and tortured and made to renounce our faith publicly … or be executed. That was the situation and daily reality for the little church in the beautiful city of Smyrna. Smyrna is located 35 ...read more

    What Is The Generation Jesus Will Return?

    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Sep 27, 2023
    based on 4 ratings
     | 2,262 views

    Some Scholars say the term “generation” means an average life span and refers either to the generations in which Jesus lived while on Earth or to the generation living when the end time signs begin to occur.

    The word “generation” (Gk: ‘genea’) can refer to the age or period of the members of a family as determined by the average span of life (Genesis 31:3; Matthew 1:17, 17:17; Mark 9:19; Luke 9:41, 16:8; Acts 2:40), as well as all the people of a given period (Matthew 24:34, Mark 13:30, Luke 1:48, ...read more

    God will always remember His people, even when trouble feels overwhelming. We may face hard times, troubles, and tribulation, but we don’t face them alone.

    Have you ever been in a store and see a child that has gotten separated from his parents? The fear is very evident on the child's face as well as the parents’ face. It's a horrible feeling when the child turns around and can't find his parents. They frantically look through every ...read more

    Study #5: This study looks at the Seven Trumpets and the Three Woes. The devastation of world war descends on the planet. Satan's demonic army, commanded by the Antichrist, goes after those who do not have the seal of God.

    NOTE: This Bible study on the end times comes from the perspective of a pre-tribulation Rapture. In our last study we looked at the Seven Seals that will be opened, which will mark the beginning of the Tribulation period. Tonight, we are going to look at the Seven Trumpets that will be blown in ...read more

    However, we may not even see a glimpse in this life. We may have to go through what seems like Hell on the way to Heaven.

    Everyone likes to use the phrase the best is yet to come. If you are not a Christian the worst is yet to come. Your life may be golden here, but in the end your life will be Hell for eternity. Indeed, the best for a Christian is to be in Heaven so the best is yet to come. However, that does not ...read more
