    People are blaming heredity, environment, job pressures, poverty, prejudices, abuse, & anything else they can think of for their problems today. But the Bible very clearly teaches that we’re responsible for our choices.

    MELVIN NEWLAND, MINISTER RIDGE CHAPEL, KANSAS, OK A. Have you noticed? Our society has produced people who ignore their responsibilities & then blame others for their problems. “If I get into financial trouble, it’s not my fault, it’s because of easy credit. And the ...read more

    Contributed by Paul Fritz on Oct 18, 2000

     | 8,226 views

    The Holy Spirit helps us view problems with the mind of Christ. When you are tempted to say, "All these problems make me think that my efforts are not worth it, remember Romans 8:28.

    1. The Holy Spirit increasingly sanctifies those who are a part of His family. The Spirit frees us from the problems, restrictions and penalties of sin as He sanctifies us. 2 Cor. 3:18, Paul writes, "But we all with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord are changed from ...read more

    Entertainment, Or Entrapment?

    Contributed by Keith Linkous on Jun 22, 2002
    based on 84 ratings
     | 7,700 views

    Christians really should be careful what they watch, and what they let their children watch. Don’t fall prey to the evil one’s schemes. You may think it’s entertainment, but is it really?

    The Bible has much to say concerning the end time, and the conditions that would characterize the last days. Paul told Timothy that perilous, dangerous times would come. But in his description of those dangerous times, he does not mention the expected, such as wars, rumors of wars, nation ...read more

Instead, you found the doors of the church were barred shut. You came and found military police outside ...read more

    People today like to go along with the majority; they like to go along with the influential, they like to go along with those who think they know, but I prefer to go along with the Lord and believe his report.

    Sunday Morning, December 5th, 2004 Let us pray Welcome..... We are now in the final month of the year 2004, and today is the second Sunday of the Advent season.

    Repentance

    based on 2 ratings
     | 13,493 views

    According to the New Testament, there’s a difference between repentance and remorse.Part of the problem may be our mistake in thinking that sorrow and confession are enough to produce change. Another part is the misunderstanding of the process of change-

    Repentance Many changes come naturally as we mature. Sometimes, though, negative habits form deep ruts, and it seems we can’t change, no matter how much we want to. Friends urge us to alter our course and warn us of dangers ahead if we don’t. We read in Scripture about God’s path of ...read more

    Christianity has an image problem. What can we learn from how those outside the church see the church today. I use Jesus criticism of religious leaders to cause us to think.

    Contrary to some, God rally does want us to have purpose, pleasure and peace this side of heaven, but we let stress cloud our thinking and then that moment of stress robs us of a lifetime of rest!

    Jesus presented Himself as God, only to be rejected by the theologians. Would we have reacted any differently? John compels us to think seriously about our own response to Jesus, the Living God.

    *John 8:48-58* *Jesus, the Great “I Am”: The Eternal God* “The Jews answered [Jesus], ‘Are we not right in saying that you are a Samaritan and have a demon?’ Jesus answered, ‘I do not have a demon, but I honour my Father, and you dishonour me.

    The Beautiful Side Of Death

     | 176,541 views

    We think of death as a loss –a loss of a great life, a loss of a beloved person. Death is nothing but losing. But that is not what the bible says about death. There is a verse in the word of God that says, “Death is gain.”

    Theme: The Beautiful Side of Death Text: John 11 Introduction A. I’d like to extend our heartfelt sympathy to the bereaved family of Allan. We want you to know that our heart is with you in these times of sorrows and pain. It’s really painful. It’s really a tough time when a loved one died. ...read more
