    Because our faith is founded on the sure promises of God, it will share the message of the Gospel out of thanks to God.

    We saw last week that since our faith has such a sure foundation on the faithful promises of our never changing God, it will affect our whole lives. What we believe affects who we are and what we do. When we see the love God has showered upon us, our lives become lives of thanks to him. So, in ...read more

    Why Was Christ A Carpenter?

    Contributed by Bob Joyce on Sep 6, 2007
    based on 11 ratings
     | 6,371 views

    It was not by chance or mere coincidence that Christ was raised in the environment of a carpenter’s shop.

    In Mark 6:3 we read, "Is not this the carpenter?" I believe nothing was left to chance in the life of our Lord. Every day’s experience had been foreseen and planned in the counsels of deity before the Incarnation took place. There were no surprises for Him. He was never caught unaware. He knew the ...read more

    The beatitudes: 1. Are often misinterpreted. 2. Help us to be like God. 3. Are not promises for the present, but guarantees of our future.

    We Are Blessed Matthew 5:1-12 Blessed are those who have gone through a divorce. Blessed are those who cannot pay their bills and may be facing bankruptcy. Blessed are those who have just heard that they have a terminal illness. Blessed are you when you have been fired from your job. ...read more

    Peter’s clear confession of Christ teaches us the real reason why we want to build a church in our community.

The man that is planning to help us design it was here, and he had some conversation with us. With God’s blessing, we hope to do some initial ...read more

    Over the next few weeks, we will be covering some major (though very basic) reasons to evangelize. Some people may have stronger giftings and desires in the area, but all are called to reach out and preach the message of Jesus: His Life, Death, and Resurrection! Two reasons to start: 1. There is ...read more

    The Why And How Of Church Unity

    Contributed by Kayode Omotoso on Nov 15, 2014
     | 5,257 views

    We must be very clear on the fact that Jesus was very passionate about the unity of the church that He had to take it to God in prayer.

    Sometimes ago, I did a write up on the subject "Crisis in Christ". It borders on the competition and irreconcilable difference among the supposed believers in Christ and the different denominations they belong to. There appears not to be an end to the war tearing the body of Christ apart. Today, ...read more

    This message challenges us to examine if there are gaps between what we say and what we do.

    3 Why do you see the speck in your neighbor’s eye, but do not notice the log in your own eye? 4 Or how can you say to your neighbor, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ while the log is in your own eye? 5 You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you ...read more
