Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jul 29, 2022

Nature is a great teacher and the creation is full of meaning. In studying the behaviour of small doves, I have gained an insight into their habits and lives. There are lessons we can learn from them. These lessons are given in two Parts.

The Cost Of Being A Disciple Of Christ

Contributed by Christian Cheong on Mar 7, 2023

As disciples of Christ, we can expect rejection and opposition. We have to be prepared to make sacrifices. We are precious in His sight and He is always watching over us. He is aware of our needs and how we are being treated.

The Harvest Is Plentiful

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 12, 2025

Jesus modeled how we should be sensitive to the needs of others, be moved with compassion, and see people as ready for the harvest. Rather than praying for others to do the job, we should be engaged too.

Allow me to open our message with an illustration. In his book entitled The Kingdom Focused Church, Gene Mims shares the following account: “After Marco Polo returned from the magnificent imperial court of Kublai Khan in 1926, he wrote that the mighty Khan asked him to request that the Pope send ...read more

Liberal Theology In The Churches – Address Number 2 Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Oct 19, 2022

Either what the Bible tells us in its totality is true, or it is to be dismissed as fable and we can discount anything we want to. Those who are liberals in churches and colleges deny parts of the bible and adopt humanism to try to adapt the bible. God is supreme.

Contrasting Christmases

Contributed by Dennis Lee on Dec 20, 2022

This message reveals a contrast seen within the Christmas story, a contrast between those who are ready and willing to receive the good news, like the shepherds and the Magi, or Wise Men, and those who are not, like King Herod and the religious leaders of that day. Come and See.

Contrasting Christmases Psalm 1; Luke 2; Matthew 2 Someone has said that life is full of contrasts, and as far as I can determine, they are right. But most of these contrasts are self-determined. Psalm chapter one deals with the main contrast, the one that determines all the rest. It involves the ...read more

A Problem That Happened - Is Salvation Something To Be Lost Because Of Sin? (Part 2 Of 3) Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jan 30, 2026

Sin in a Christian’s life is not just serious – it is controversial for some. We are looking at the teaching that says a Christian in wilful sin is cut off. We consider a sin unto death, conviction, repentance, guilt, restoration, the shepherd’s rod and staff, and Satan’s continuing accusations.

A PROBLEM THAT HAPPENED - IS SALVATION SOMETHING TO BE LOST BECAUSE OF SIN? (PART 2 of 3) The troublesome aspect of losing one’s salvation reared its head in a meeting and unsettled people when one was promoting this idea of “wilful sin” leading to being cut off and losing salvation. It is ...read more
