    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Dec 29, 2022
     | 1,390 views

    Paul urges the believers to live correctly for the Lord and gives some practical points. Because a few had died, Paul comforts the church with the truth of the Rapture, a teaching sadly neglected by most. It is the glorious hope.

    MESSAGE 5 - 1 THESSALONIANS CHAPTER 4 – WALK TO PLEASE GOD AND THE RAPTURE TEACHING – PART 2 We will continue in this chapter and will consider the second Part. Paul has been speaking to these believers about living in persecution and how their lives should be lived. Earlier in the book he told ...read more

     | 1,976 views

    "First, I preached my church empty, and then preached it full again."

    David Foster Wallace said, "The truth will set you free. But not until it is finished with you,” in other words, the truth has to be assimilated in your conscience before it can set you free. Stanley Hauerwas, of Duke Divinity school, says, in effect, that, when we don’t let the truth ...read more

    Sermon # 1 - God's Bountiful Heart Series

    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,634 views

    What is the secret to a life of overflowing abundance? There’s much we can learn from the life of David and Abraham. God can bless abundantly if only we can follow certain principles, and let go of thoughts and attitudes that displease God.

    We read in 2 Corinthians 9:8, “Besides, God is able to make every blessing of yours overflow for you, so that in every situation you will always have all you need for any good work.” (ISV) This is Paul’s words to the church at Corinth and he wished them that they would be full and overflowing with ...read more

    The Enemy's Plan To Stop You

    Contributed by Richard Papafio on May 10, 2018
     | 7,299 views

    The devil will never try to stop you by force so you fight back strongly in the name of Jesus. He will use cunning and deceptive means to try to outwit you but our Jesus is greater.

    May the peace of the Lord be with you. Topic: THE ENEMY'S PLAN TO STOP YOU Acts 4:15-17 King James Version (KJV) 15 But when they had commanded them to go aside out of the council, they conferred among themselves, 16 Saying, What shall we do to these men? for that indeed a notable miracle hath ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 2,010 views

    There are many who follow Jesus, but only a few who genuinely seek to live as His disciples. Let’s understand who a true disciple is, and what Jesus expects of those who are His disciples.

    We read in Matthew 4:25, “Large crowds followed him. They came from Galilee, the Ten Cities, Jerusalem, Judea, and from across the Jordan River.” (GW) Great multitudes of people followed after Jesus while He was here on earth, and there were several reasons why they did so. As we study the ...read more

    As we go through the challenges of life our strength and courage to face them comes from God. On our part we are called to be strong and courageous to carry out the responsibilities God has entrusted to us, to live in obedience to God’s word knowing that God will never leave us or forsake us.

    Today’s meditation is taken from Joshua 1:6-9, Be strong and courageous, for you shall cause this people to inherit the land that I swore to their fathers to give them. Only be strong and very courageous, being careful to do according to all the law that Moses my servant commanded you. Do not turn ...read more

    The purpose of this sermon is to demonstrate that Paul intended 1 Corinthians 9 as a personal example of the point that he made in chapter 8. That point being that Christians are to give up their rights for the cause of others and to demonstrate love.
