     | 2,207 views

    What does it mean to really be saved? How should it look like?

    Ephesians 2:10 “Living Out Our Salvation” Vv. 8-9 • This is the fundamental truth of our faith: salvation is by grace alone through faith alone. • “Not of yourselves” o Nothing we can do to earn it, add to it, or take away from it; it truly is a gift from God. • “Lest any man should ...read more

    Looking For Answers

    based on 18 ratings
     | 14,929 views

    The topic I believed needed to be addressed was how we get so focused on the problems that we don’t look for solutions. We get so wrapped up in what is wrong with the world, the church and each other that we forget the reason we are here, our purpose, our

    When I first began writing the sermon for this week I thought I needed to preach something hard, something that would step on people’s toes, wake us up and challenge us. I began searching the Bible for topics. Believing I found what I was looking for I began trying to write. But I couldn’t get ...read more

    What Does It Mean That Jesus Was A ‘ransom’ For Us? Series

     | 5,274 views

    A look at the correct understanding of "ransom" (it's not an extortion) and four key ideas that help us understand it.

    PAYING "RANSOM"? Does this mean that God gave into extortion? - 1 Timothy 2:6. - A ransom is a price paid for someone’s freedom. - It’s an easy idea to get off-track on if you don’t watch it. - How so? Sometimes a ransom is basically extortion. Someone kidnaps someone and ...read more

    Meditate & Do Principle

    Contributed by William Akehurst on Jul 19, 2012
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,817 views

    Joshua 1:8 tells us to meditate and do what is in God's Word. What does the word Meditate mean to you? To study? To Ponder? To think about? But when we study this principle from the Hebrew root of the word, we see a whole new meaning, a true blessing

    Joshua 1:8 This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.

    What Is Our Problem?

    Contributed by Greg Nance on Jul 23, 2007
    based on 3 ratings
     | 2,815 views

    This is our second study in this series. God describes our problem, how we got there and what it does to us. Once we begin to understand the problem and how devastating it is, perhaps we will begin to appreciate the solution.

    We came from God. We were made to be like God. (As we studied last week). So, what is the problem? Genesis, again, holds the answer. Chapter 3 tells the story. Everything God made was good, very good. But then things change. There was this tree and this serpent. God had put Adam and Eve in a ...read more

    What Did Jesus Mean By "Whoever Loses His Life For Me Will Find It" Series

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Jul 19, 2013
    based on 3 ratings
     | 34,688 views

    A look at Jesus' difficult (and frequently ignored) teaching that "whoever lose his life for me will find it." What does that mean? What does it look like to live that out?

    WHAT DOES "LOSE YOUR LIFE TO FIND IT" MEAN ANYWAY? It means to pursue Jesus’ path even at the expense of my desires. - Matthew 10:39; Matthew 16:25; Mark 8:35; Luke 9:24; Luke 17:33; John 12:25. - This is a foreign concept to many Christians. In the American church we largely ignore this ...read more
