What Is This?

Contributed by Gaither Bailey on Jan 28, 2021

Are we amazed with the authority of the words of Christ Jesus?

What Is This? Mark 1: 21 - 28 Intro: Out of necessity, I live in a world of words.

What Is Life

Contributed by Grant Adams on Feb 14, 2021

In the message this morning, I will try to answer one of life’s most important questions. What is life or what is this life all about? I am sure most of us at some time have asked ourselves questions such as, why was I born? Why am I here? What is the purpose of life? Is this all there is to life?

I. Definition of Life 1. The dictionary says: a. Life is the union of soul and body. That's not 100% true because the word of God says man is made up of body, soul, and spirit. 1 Thessalonians 5:23; Hebrews 4:12 b. Life is the period between birth and death. This is not true. The Bible ...read more

What Is Sin? Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 5, 2021

Sin is so powerful, even in the Christian life, because it is so easy to miss the mark of God's high calling. It is the most foolish attitude a Christian can have to think that he could not fall into sin.

I was talking to a man who is a member of the Holiness Church. He said his church was a split off from the Free Methodist Church. When I expressed my surprise by saying that I thought the Free Methodist were a very fundamental group, he responded by saying, "Yes, but what was sin 50 ...read more

What Is Truth?

Contributed by Boomer Phillips on Apr 15, 2021

Fact-checking rates claims as true or false. Someone cannot determine what is true unless they claim to hold the keys to truth. Civil unrest often stems from a clash of truths. It's important to know the "real" source of truth.

I’ve entitled our message this morning, “What Is Truth?” based on a question posed by Pontius Pilate toward the end of our text. In the Merriam-Webster Dictionary, “truth” is defined as, “the body of real things, events, and facts.” It is also defined as “a transcendent fundamental or spiritual ...read more
