Let us read Ecclesiastes 8:1-17: 1 Who is like the wise? And who knows the interpretation of a thing? A man’s wisdom makes his ...read more

    A. INTRODUCTION: JOSHUA 1:8 1. Not as the unsaved. "God is not in all his thoughts" (Psalm 10:4). 2. Realize. "Thou (God) understandest my thoughts afar off" (Psalm 139:2). 3. God’s thoughts.

    Staying In Your Lane

    Contributed by Ronnie Mcneill on Nov 25, 2007
    based on 15 ratings
     | 17,732 views

    This is a sermon that reminds us that we should only operate in the authority that God has given us. When we begin to operate in the authority that God has not given us, we are no longer in our lane and that carries devastating consequences.

    Introduction Looking at how young people are performing in schools, in their communities, and even where they live, everybody wants to do their own thing. Respect and following rules is something that has become obsolete! Society has accepted the profane way lyrics of music is sung and how ...read more

    Faith

    based on 8 ratings
     | 11,025 views

    The text seems to suggest that the bearers of “Bad News” will always come, but the author of “Good News” is always in control. Jesus hears and ignores what others are saying. He has the last word. He is the author and finisher of our faith.

    One night a house caught fire and a young boy was forced to flee to the roof. The father stood on the ground below with outstretched arms, calling to his son, “Jump! I’ll catch you.” He knew the boy had to jump to save his life. All the boy could see, however, was flame, smoke, and blackness. As ...read more

    ARE YOU MY BROTHER? – CHRISTIAN ESSENTIALS INTRODUCTION By what right or privilege do we call one another brother?

    The authority God has given Jesus Christ to literally (and physically) judge and punish those who turn away from the Father now begins to show. Jesus is no longer the sacrificial lamb, but acts in righteousness with unmerciful authority.

    Trampling the Winepress Revelation, Part 23, Revelation 14:17-20 Introduction - On His head is golden crown: signifying royalty and authority - In His hand: a Sickle which has only one use: to harvest -- Think of Jesus stepping to the edge of Heaven to reap what is His! - An angel ...read more

    Remember Your Leaders Series

    It seems to me that this concluding chapter is something of a catch-all. I can imagine that the author’s hand might be aching after all this writing. So now he is packing as much as he can into his concluding words.

    Wow! We’ve been reading and making our way through Hebrews for a long time. It was way back in January that we started. Now it seems almost as though that is shrouded in the mists of history. And I want to express my gratitude to Pastor Marvin, who has steadfastly and faithfully been leading us ...read more

    Scripture Reading: Mark 1:21-28 They went to Capernaum; and when the sabbath came, he entered the synagogue and taught. They were astounded at his teaching, for he taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes. Just then there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit, and ...read more

    The older I become the more interested I am in those who have gone before me. Before I join my ancestors out there, I’d like to know more about them.

    The "Holy Place" was the ultimate place of worship for Old Testament Priests. What was it about the furniture in this room that God wanted to teach us?

    OPEN: One Sunday morning an old cowboy entered a church just before services were to begin. Although the old man and his clothes were spotlessly clean, he wore jeans, a denim shirt and boots that were very worn and ragged. In his hand he carried a worn out old hat and an equally worn out bible. ...read more

    Shouldn’t we as Christians also be willing to pay the price, especially when we are called by Christ to fight for the truth? After all, he is the final authority and power in the universe. Christ is King
