    Two Pathways Series

    Contributed by Robert Leroe on Jun 2, 2014
     | 4,368 views

    Performance-based religion is not the Gospel. In both the OT & NT redemption comes via grace apart from works.

    Introduction: “Two roads diverged in a yellow wood and I took the one less traveled by” wrote Robert Frost. There are two roads before us and only one leads to Heaven. Which one is it--the road of good works or faith? Works will get us lost in the woods. When we realize that none of ...read more

    Believe in the Person of Jesus Christ. Don’t become so involved in “religion” that you miss the Truth (Jesus)

    And the Father who sent me has Himself borne witness about me. His voice you have never heard, his form you have never seen, John 5:37 ESV In following the movement of the scripture, in John chapter 5, we’ve seen what should have been viewed as a time of celebration for both the entire Jewish ...read more

    Transformers!

    Christianity is not a religion of information, but rather about a relationship with Jesus Christ that results in transformation. God wants us to be transformers!

    TRANSFORMERS! OPENING JOKE: As the new pastor in town was walking down the street, he saw a little boy straining every muscle to reach the door-bell. He realized the little guy would never make it, although he admired the kid’s tenacity. So he walked up on the porch to help. "Here buddy, need some ...read more

    How To Destroy Your Enemies

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Oct 6, 2021
     | 3,722 views

    There are a lot of differences between Christianity and other religions. One of those differences is the way we treat our enemies.

    SO, HOW ARE WE TO REACT TO OUR ENEMIES? The natural reaction of one who does not know Christ is to strike back and to seek the greatest retribution possible. BUT THIS IS NOT THE CHRISTIAN RESPONSE Illus: D.L. MOODY, IN ONE OF HIS SERMONS, PORTRAYS THE LORD JESUS GIVING DIRECTION TO PETER AFTER ...read more

    Jesus Christ is the central figure of Christianity. This is what separates and makes us unique from other world religions.

    Today, Christians all over the world celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Jesus is alive, and He is alive forever. The ground where Joseph of Arimathea and Nicodemus laid his body began to shake, and this massive stone that serves as a door to Jesus’ tomb was rolled away. And so when the ...read more

    Are You In Or Out?

    based on 18 ratings
     | 8,907 views

    In the end we will not be able to say "I don’t want to play this religion game." It won’t be about religion, but about relationship with God. As Jesus prepares to go to the cross, He shares His very last teaching, about our lives, and about the end times.

    A professor of a graduate-school class of gifted students included a HUGE amount of material on the midterm exam. Tension in the room built, people were sighing and gasping aloud as they realized how much material they had covered and were expected to recall. The following week, the professor ...read more

    I’m ready for Old Time Religion Pentecostal Revival where the hot wind of the Holy Spirit burns away the sin from God’s People.

    BRINGING THE GLORY BACK By Pastor Jim May I have a number of old movies in my collection. I’m not a big movie buff, but I do like to watch movies that based upon history. The War Between the States, World War I & II, and of course Vietnam to a lesser degree, are my favorite time periods to ...read more

     | 4,657 views

    Delusion becomes all who do not fully embrace the truths of God's word. These people are intrigued with political leaders who have a worldly social agenda that embraces humanistic views.

    Election Years - Powerful Delusions 2 Thessalonians warns of a time when "The man of lawlessness [we be] revealed." (2 Thessalonians 2:3) The Apostle Paul tells us "...the secret power of lawlessness is already at work..." (2 Thessalonians 2:7) This is happening because "...all the ...read more

    Mirror, Mirror On The Wall; Do I Look Like Christ At All? James 1:19-25 Series

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Aug 26, 2015
     | 9,293 views

    In this passage James speaks to us about "human" anger and the moral filth of the world. He then compares the Word of God to a spiritual mirror that we need to look into intently if we desire to be spiritually presentable to God.

    Today, we’ll be taking a look at James 1:19-25 James 1:19-25 “My dear brothers and sisters, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry, because human anger does not produce the righteousness that God desires. ...read more

     | 2,077 views

    The Galatians have made a wrong turn and were on a road that leads back to an eternal life of hopelessness. Paul has used rhetoric, satire, allegory and even abusive language to get their attention.

    Paul has used rhetoric, satire, allegory and even abusive language to get their attention. He now turns, feeling confident that the last four chapters were sufficient to prove his point, to encouragement of these lost Christians coupled with a warning not to repeat these mistakes again.

    You're not in, until you are born again.

    Being a father today is not easy because there’s a lot of pressure on dads to be in the delivery room. I’m not discounting the importance of being involved in this way because I certainly wanted to be there…I just wasn’t sure if I could handle it. I think my dad had it easier in the 60s when he ...read more
