    How The Church Must Live According To The Gospel Series

    We’re to please God, not ourselves and we’re to love one another; to seek their welfare above our own. The Christian life is always one of growth, of ongoing training, as we press on towards the goal of eternal life.

    I think Christians often struggle with knowing how to respond to the pressures we feel to lower our standards of behaviour. And there are two extremes that we come across among Christians. One extreme thinks we should forget those old fashioned mores and get with the times: after all, this is a new ...read more

     | 3,792 views

    The reason submission is so important for a wife is because of this key: The wife who willingly submits to her husband’s leadership glorifies God.

    “Sweet Surrender” Let me sum up the perfect picture for marriage again: God wants each marriage to be a portrait of His love for His glory! Romans 11:36 “For of Him and through Him and to Him are all things, to whom be all the glory forever.” Well, I knew today’s sermon was going to the hardest ...read more

    Your hands were not trained to tidy up a tent. Your hands were trained for war! In order to accomplish God’s purpose in your life you have to Get Out of Your Tent!

    “Time To Tear Down The Tents or Get Out of Your Tent” Text: 1 Samuel 17:1a; 2-11; 20-24; 28-29 I. Introduction This is certainly not a new story.

    If we were really honest, all of us could admit that at some time or another in our life we have been tripped up by sin. Some of us may have fallen harder than others but the pain and the guilt remains the same. In the midst of our failure we often are tempted to give up and quit. Because Satan is ...read more

     | 7,278 views

    Preached in 1989. The Holy Spirit, like mothers, is stubborn. He will accomplish what He sets out to do, as mothers do not abandon their children; so we must not give up on each other but must become motherlike.

    There’s just something about mothers -- they are without a doubt the stubbornest people on God’s green earth. Mothers are stubborn, mothers stick with it, mothers stay with something until the cows come home. Mothers are persistent, mothers are consistent ... I think I said it best at the ...read more

    JOHN 14: 25-31 THE PROMISE OF THE SPIRIT [Philippians 4: 6-7] This section continues to prepare Jesus’ disciples for His departure and its consequences for them.
