God, But Man (Strange, But True!)

Contributed by Scott Jensen on Nov 11, 2019

Simply put, there is only one Jesus, but this Jesus has two natures: He is God and He is man. Paul explains this well as he points to Jesus’ human characteristics, like His death on a cross, while also asserting His divinity, saying that the very fullness of God dwells in Christ.

The Son was both God and Man to restore His creation 1. Jesus really was a man a. Stepped out of heaven to be like us b. He was born just like us, lived like us, grew up like us c. Lived a humble lifestyle and pinched pennies d. He got tired like us i. Crowds followed him ...read more

The Divided Highway Series

Contributed by Grant Adams on Dec 9, 2019

How many of us can remember the day of 55 mph. It seemed like forever to get to our destination. With the age of the Superhighway, all of us desire to get on it and go, but when it comes to the spiritual road, we need to stay on the narrow way.

In this modern age of rapid travel and wide high-speed highways, it is possible to travel across counties and even states without the inconvenience of two-way traffic, speed zones or stop signs. It is not like the narrow often rough, roads that we traveled a few short years ago. Speed was limited, ...read more

Are You A Brawler

Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on Aug 24, 2020

You can contend for the faith once delivered to the saints without being contentious.

1Tim 3:1 This is a true saying, If a man desire the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work. 2 A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach; 3 Not given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy lucre; but ...read more

Contentment Counselling

Contributed by George Warner on Aug 25, 2020

Arm yourself against the adversary

ST. JOHN 7:16-17 tells us about the pragmatism of sound doctrine. The Lord said : My doctrine is not mine but his that sent me. If any man do his will he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God or whether I speak of myself. I George am a recognizer of the physiological limitations of ...read more

All Is Well

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jul 5, 2014

Our common faith was expressed so aptly in the words of Dame Julian of Norwich - but these words were anticipated and exceeded by far by another great woman in today's Scripture passage.

ALL IS WELL. 2 Kings 4:18-26. In England’s original ‘second City’ - Norwich - there is a little church named after an all-but-forgotten Saint Julian, where worship is still conducted to this very day. Yet the church is not remembered for its patron, but for a certain 14th century recluse who ...read more

The Question Of The Authority Of Jesus

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 15, 2014

Who is Jesus? Who is Jesus to us? The difference between words and action. Time for true repentance, and amendment of life.

THE QUESTION OF JESUS’ AUTHORITY. Matthew 21:23-32. This conversation follows hard on the heels of Jesus’ cleansing of the Temple (Matthew 21:12-16), and the symbolic withering of the fig tree (Matthew 21:18-20). “Who gave you the right to do such things?” demanded the Temple authorities, and ...read more

It's A Masquerade

Contributed by Clarence Weaver Sr on Jul 2, 2013

As Christians we must realize no matter how much we feel in control, we are not. Satan was so full of pride he thought he could be God. Only when we realize God is in control can we sense God’s power in our lives.

It's A Masquerade 2 Corinthians 11:13-15 Elder Clarence Weaver "For such people are false apostles, deceitful workers, masquerading as apostles of Christ. And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light. It is not surprising, then, if his servants also masquerade as servants of ...read more

The Connie Waltman Funeral

Contributed by Charles Clary on Mar 31, 2014

This is my eulogy for a lady named Connie who was severely crippled with rheumatoid arthritis. Her husband, Rex, in his care for her, was a great inspiration to our church family. Connie was a model of patient endurance.

It was not Roe vs. Wade. It was Runnelstown vs. Wade. It was a football game to be played on Runnelstown's (Miss.) field. A young gentleman named Rex, a student at the University of Southern Mississippi at Hattiesburg, came to see his Wade Hornets play. He did not know that across the field ...read more
