    HoHum: In one verse Paul reminds Timothy of the gospel in all its fullness. Tries to cover the whole gospel. Some songs try to do that: You came from heaven to earth, to show the way, from the earth to the cross, my debt to pay, from the cross to the grave, from the grave to the sky, Lord I lift ...read more

    Spiritual Protection For The Battlefield

    We are engaged in a spiritual war. A serious battle. For the Christian, faith is not spelled "F-A-I-T-H" it is spelled "R-I-S-K." If something is not a risk, then it really does not require faith.

    For Those not Familiar with an Anglican Service there are 4 Scripture readings before the message is given. Today's Scriptures were Deuteronomy 26:1-11 ; Psalm 91:1,2,9-16 ; Romans 10:8-13 and Luke 4:1-13 One gentleman commented, ... "I wouldn't be tempted ... if temptation .... wasn't ... so ...read more

    Text: 1 Cor 13:1-7, Title: Church Personnel Manual Part 2, Date/Place: 2/5/12 NRBC What Love Does (v. 4-7) He gives us fifteen verbs, not adjectives, which show the defining qualities of how love is practiced.

    Why Christians struggle with Depending and Relying on Jesus

    “Relying? or Are You Lying? ” Matt 6: 25-33 Matt 6:30-33 Now if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? 31 “Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we ...read more

    TRUE CHANGE or RENEWAL can only happen when these 3 things take place: (1) Admit our wrongs (confession), (2) Acknowledge God’s ways (repentance), and (3) Act on It (commitment).

    We have come to Nehemiah 9. Let’s take a quick glance at the setting. • The Jewish people had been in captivity in Babylon. Their Temple and the entire city of Jerusalem had been destroyed. • Now, after 70 years, they have returned and rebuilt their city. Although we usually ...read more

    Unstrained Mercy

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jun 9, 2011
     | 3,153 views

    Unstrained mercy needs to be constrained by the same constraints that God himself recognizes: by wisdom, by justice, by the long-term, eternal good of the person you are trying to help.

    We’ve seen a lot about pardons in the news lately, haven’t we. Why did former President Clinton pardon Marc Rich? The “fugitive financier” is the nicely alliterative phrase that all the commentators use - I bet the journalist who coined the phrase is wishing he - or she - ...read more

    We will see victory in the Christian life to the extent that we embrace God’s thoughts and abandon worldly patterns of thought.

    Thinking God’s Thoughts, Romans 12:1-2; Ephesians 4:17-20 Introduction In the Christian life there is perhaps no other doctrine which is more directly applicable or important than that of the renewal of the mind. Indeed, is it not the continual and ongoing process of the changing of the thought ...read more

    Don't Waste Your Life Series

     | 17,367 views

    It is not enough to have great potential or show great promise. It is what you do with that potential that makes all the difference. A good beginning does not guarantee a good end. End your life well, to the glory of God.

    Whatever we start, do it well and end it well. Put your heart in it and do a good job. It is more important how we end than how well we start. • This is so true of Saul’s life. He started well, but did not end well. • We are going to read about his death today (1 Sam 31), and ...read more

    Sermon examines the benefits of humility with practical steps for walking in humiity. Moses in Niumbers 12 is given as an example of this. Jesus' teaching on the subject is also considered.

    Read Text (Numbers 12) I call your attention to verse 3 in this chapter: “Now the man Moses was very humble, more than all men who were on the face of the earth.” In this story, we are given a dramatic picture of the relationship between spiritual authority and genuine humility.

    A crisis is a test. It reveals our attitude towards God and faith in Him. What is the posture of your heart?

    Saul showed an unwillingness to trust God. This sounds odd at first. Why would anyone not trust God? • If we think of our own experience, then we can understand. It could be pride (we think we know best), freedom (I like to do what I like), pleasure (I want some fun), or fear (sacrifices ...read more
