     | 4,070 views

    To show that GOD have chosen your local church so that we can serve GOD there, as we come out and overcome this worldliness. 1 John 4:4 (Amplified Bible) Little children, you are of God [you belong to Him] and have [already] defeated and overcome them [

    Going Into Battle

    Contributed by Mark Engler on Sep 28, 2017

     | 12,348 views

    But the church today isn’t living in power, it isn’t going into to battle and we have a hard time obeying Jesus. Even Christians dislike each other and sometimes even hate each other. Even Christians would rather do worldly things rather than Godly thin

    Going Into Battle ME Not too long ago, when HBO had a free weekend I watched a war movie called Hacksaw Ridge. The movie is about Desmond Doss. Desmond wanted to help with the war, but he would not kill anyone, he wanted to be a medic and help the wounded. The movie is based on a true story. ...read more

     | 311 views

    In 2 Corinthians 7, we overall learn that godly grief brings about repentance and worldly grief emphasizes sorrow ‘cause we got caught. As the people of God, we are about repentance and restoration. Through repentance, God the Father brings about a change in us to become more like Jesus.

     | 5,758 views

    Pivotal events can happen unexpectedly in our lives. If we are able to accept that fact and (at the same time) trust God with the changes that accompany those events, we will manage life better. This message explores unexpected events in Moses's life.

    Today I want to talk about two unexpected events in Moses’s life. One was a glorious encounter with God that set him on the course for the last 40 years of his life. The other was a painful experience that equipped him to fulfill the mission given to him in the first encounter. In both cases the ...read more

    What To Do If Salvation Stops Saving (Updated)

    Contributed by Gordon Brownlee on Mar 6, 2025
     | 280 views

    Many can mark the day of their salvation. At some point they saw the need to ask for help from above and Jesus Yeshua heard their prayer and sent the gift of the Holy Spirit. However life doesn’t always provide us safe passage and a worldly or even religious mindset can interrupt a sure salvation.

    Staying On Track (Part 1) Series

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Sep 7, 2020
    based on 2 ratings
     | 5,659 views

    Many Christians begin with zeal, but get sidetracked along the way. Some are distracted with career ambitions. Others let hobbies or other interests take more and more time. The most heartbreaking is when someone is sidetracked by a false doctrine. Message expounds Philippians 3:15-21.

    Intro In our study of Philippians, we find ourselves in the last seven verses of chapter 3. In the verses just prior to this text Paul introduced the metaphor of running a race like they run in the Olympics. His instruction there was that we keep our focus on the finish line; we do not look back; ...read more

    Zechariah’s Third Vision: City Without Walls) Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 6,150 views

    The Jews in Jerusalem were thinking too small in their expectations of God's goodness. God's future for his people is so abundant that man-made walls could not contain the blessings. Jerusalem will be a "city without walls."

    We are becoming familiar with the book of Zechariah. For most Christians, it is a closed book. But God is opening this word to us because it is so relevant to world events today and to our personal journey in God. Today we enter Zechariah’s third vision recorded in chapter 2. The vision, as a ...read more
