    Ground Zero events change everything around us. Suffering is a reality, and suffering comes from the presence of sin in us and in our world. But with Jesus as our foundation, we can have forgiveness and security.

    Sept. 8, 2002 Genesis 3:1 - 24 ¡§Ground Zero¡¨ INTRODUCTION I need you to do something for me this morning. Each of you should have received four slips of paper as you came in today. If you do not have these, please raise your hand, and an usher will get them to you. On these four ...read more

    One of the most valuable lessons the child of God can learn is that of living in moment by moment submission and obedience to the indwelling Holy Spirit of God. To do otherwise is to live outside the will of God, and results in an aimless life for the Chr

    Spirit-Filled Living Text: Eph.5: 18-19; Gal.5: 16-17 Intro: Too often we Baptist tend to shy away from the term “Spirit-filled.” This is perhaps largely due to some of the wild and weird things perpetrated and practiced under the guise of being filled with the Holy Spirit, such as “taking up ...read more

    James encourages us to pray, pointing to the example of Elijah, a man with all the frailties that characterises each of us.

    In Joel 2:12-17, the prophet renews his impassioned plea to return unto the Lord through a call for repentance. This call has two facets in first a 1) Personal (Joel 2:12–14) then a 2) Corporate response (Joel 2:15–17) to God.

    Joel 2:12–17. 12 “Yet even now,” declares the LORD, “return to me with all your heart, with fasting, with weeping, and with mourning; 13 and rend your hearts and not your garments.” Return to the LORD your God, for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love; and he ...read more

    The oracle given in Zechariah 1:12-17 is expounded. These comforting words are applicable to God's people today. We sometimes wonder when God will intervene in our behalf just as the Jews did in our text.

    Have you ever been treated unjustly and wondered why God seemed to ignore the oppression? When Babylon conquered Israel in 586 BC, they were extremely cruel to the captive Jews. Those Jews were experiencing God’s correction in their lives. But the Babylonians went way beyond that. They exacted an ...read more
