    Divine mercy is of God. It cannot be purchased with money, obtained by good works or worldly wisdom.

    TEXT: Romans 9:15-16 NLT "For God said to Moses, “I will show mercy to anyone I choose, and I will show compassion to anyone I choose. So it is God who decides to show mercy. We can neither choose it nor work for it." DIVINE MERCY IS OF GOD It is God's prerogative to show mercy on ...read more

    THE ENEMIES WE FIGHT A couple of weeks ago, a friend told me he had watched a TV show, where some Catholic priests had performed an exorcism.

    The Light Of The World Series

     | 4,412 views

    As the Light of the World Jesus takes us out of darkness and worldliness. Darkness and worldliness does not come because we are the worst we can be; it comes because we are following the distraction of Satan who masquerades as an angel of light.

    Message John 8:12 I Am The Light of the World When Jesus describes Himself as The Light we can quickly understand the significance of the metaphor. Light gives direction. Light pierces the darkness. Light takes away fear, uncertainty, and hesitancy. Light reveals truth. We get the metaphor. Those ...read more

     | 3,673 views

    In this day of "fluff and icing", "feel good", "me-centered" beliefs, sermons, and teachings, the church in this present age has, for all practical purposes, abandoned the call for holiness and separation from the world.

    We who call ourselves followers of Jesus Christ in these last days have, for all practical purposes, allowed the world to tell us what to think and say when it comes to the authority of the Scriptures, the person and work of Jesus, God's nature, and the coming judgment upon this wicked and ...read more

    Who has not done war with their own desires in contrast to what God desires?

    Who has not set out living in the Spirit only to be confronted by your own fleshly desires? I think each of us at one time or another, in one way or another, has battled the flesh. In Romans 8:1-3, Paul states There is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. For the law ...read more

    Some have forgotten their calling...they've been called in every direction, but have forgotten the true calling they received the day that the Holy Spirit moved them to accept Jesus as their personal Lord and Saviour...the day they became born again!

    This sermon looks at what our focus is when compiling our ’treasure’ - a heavenly investment, or a worldly investment.

    Our Bible lesson reminds me of a folk song we use to sing in Girl Scouts when I was a teenager. Maybe you’ve heard it before - I was always surprised to discover that a lot of the folk songs we sang were popular tunes from my parent’s days. This folk song was called “One Tin Soldier.” It talked ...read more
