    Thy Kingdom Come Series

    Contributed by Joseph Marshall on Mar 8, 2020
     | 2,640 views

    When we pray "Thy Kingdom come", what do we mean by this? Jesus spends much time teaching on the kingdom that is to come and how we can be involved in it. In order to understand your role in the kingdom, we must first understand what the "Kingdom" is.

    What are we saying when we pray, “Thy kingdom come”? 1. “I know this world’s system is not your kingdom.” JOHN 18:36 2. “I know you have a greater kingdom.” LUKE 17:21 3. “I know that your purposes are eternal.” MATTHEW 6:33 4. “I know I must resist the temptation to live for the here and ...read more

    The Christ

    Contributed by Scott Coltrain on Mar 5, 2009

     | 5,522 views

    Why is the term ‘Christ’ associated with Jesus’ name? What does ‘Christ’ mean? That is the topic that we will be considering today.

    We find that in the New Testament, Jesus is referred to as “Jesus Christ” one hundred and thirty-four times. For someone new to the Scriptures, since ‘Christ’ follows ‘Jesus’ so frequently, one might get the idea that ‘Christ‘ is Jesus’ surname or last name. However, there are eighty-six times in ...read more

    Introduction: A Sunday School teacher asked her class to write one sentence each on "What Easter Means to Me." One pupil wrote: "Egg salad sandwiches for the next two weeks!"...

    Why does Jesus speak in parables? Why doesn’t He explain all His stories?

    Matthew 13:34-35 – HEY! THAT’S ME IN THAT STORY! – Part 15 Back in the 60’s my parents allowed me to go to the city cinema and watch movies about Tarzan.

    David: Man Of Prayer Series

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Aug 30, 2024
     | 1,687 views

    In this talk we look at how David prayed when he faced enemies or storms in his life. He cried out to God. But he also remembered vital things about God - things that enabled him to overcome his enemies and stand firm in the storms.

    INTRODUCTION How do we pray? Could we pray better? If I asked you, who in the Bible is an expert in prayer, who would you say? You might say David. The psalms are prayers and at least 75 of the 150 psalms in the Book of Psalms were written by David. We’re in a series on David, the shepherd ...read more

    Belivers have an entirely different world-view than unbelievers; we need to recoginze that and not be ashamed about honoring God.

    For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them. For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world ...read more
