    Lust craves to use people for our "needs" and desires. It is the exact opposite of the love and focus on the needs of others that Jesus calls us to.

Everywhere we look—billboards, magazines, movies and television—we view provocative pictures. The goal of modern clothing fashion is to be alluring. The idea of turning ...read more

    As children of God and members of the Body of Christ, we are basically clueless as to the awesome power which has been vested in Christ’s New Testament Church, through His gifts working through us.

    Virtually every cardinal doctrine in the Holy Scripture is covered in Paul’s letter to the Ephesians. Ephesians consists of two basic truths - positional truth and practical truth. In studying this blessed book, I counted thirty nine different benefits which are ours as members of Christ’s Body ...read more

    Thanks to the Sermont Central Contributor for the "G.I.F.T." format. God’s gift of faith is a life altering gift.

    God’s Gift is Imputed I. When you open your gifts on Christmas morning, remember the word “Imputed.” II. Think of the word “Imputed” as meaning, A. Not given according to your own merits, but rather according to someone else’s. B. In other words, I’m not getting a gift I deserve, but rather ...read more

    A short talk given to 480 school children plus their parents most of whom are not yet Christians but love Christmas. A challenging message to give ourselves to God in response to his priceless gift to us.

    I had an email from my friend Frederic in Rwanda yesterday. He was telling me that the children at his Church will be gathering with their parents at 2 pm on Christmas Eve for singing, dancing, and drama.

    One internet search engine listed over 200,000 items that included the phrase: “the gift that never stops giving”! No material or earthly gift that man can give will last forever.
