    Where we are quick to speak and quick to react, God’s ways puzzle us. Where we might be too proud and too quick to consider aggressively taking charge, God in His infinite wisdom demonstrates His loving mercy, humility, a

    Our High Priest Jesus has offered for all time one sacrifice for sins. This is the real Independence day. Christ has freed us from all sins, from death, and the power of the devil. If we reject this sacrifice there is no other cure for our disease of sin.

     | 19,540 views

    Many go for years without ever becoming an active member in a local congregation. A myriad of excuses are given for not joining. We need to understand what the church is and the reasons for belonging to a local church.

    Why Belong to a Local Church? Acts 2:41-47 Introduction: Often I meet people who have become Christians but for whatever reason fail to follow Christ in baptism and to become members of a Bible believing church.

    Numbers Is The Name Of The Game Series

    Contributed by Dr. Jerry N. Watts on Jun 27, 2011
     | 5,591 views

    God’s use of numbers is intriguing and to understand them is to better understand His word. This message was developed after reading Dr. Rogers & Dr. Merritt and is very helpful for study.

    Numbers is the Name of the Game Revelation 1:4, 20 * Years ago schools embraced a simple form of education which was jokingly referred to as the 3 R’s of learning; reading, ‘riting, & ‘rithmetic.

    Paul said in Romans 6:14, “we are not under law but under grace”. So does that mean the law has no value to us? If we think because we are a Christian under the new covenant we don’t have to pay any attention to the old covenant we are mistaken.

    “OLD TESTAMENT LAW AND THE NEW TESTAMENT CHRISTIAN” Matthew 5:17-20 INTRODUCTION: (‘I tell you the truth’-first instance we find this phrase is in Mt. 5). We might think that because we are a Christian and under the new covenant, as I talked about last week in the ...read more

    A transformed life should lead to transformed relationships, adding brotherly affection to godliness.

    What comes to your mind when you hear the word “fellowship”? Usually, we think of spending time with fellow believers, sharing a cup of coffee or chatting with them.
