    In this passage, we are told of yet another way in which we are to imitate God—we are to be “light.” Once the believers were “darkness,” but now they were “light in the Lord.”

    Commentary on the Book of Ephesians By: Tom Lowe Date: 11/8/17 Lesson 22: Confront them with the Gospel (Ephesians 5:8-14) Ephesians 5:8-14 (KJV) 8 For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light: 9 (For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and ...read more

    Contributed by Gordon Pike on Aug 21, 2018
     | 6,180 views

    If we really know God as He wants to be known by us, we will love Him. And if we really love Him, worship will be the explosion that takes place in our souls as we seek to understand and appreciate our Maker, our Defender, our Redeemer, our Friend.

     | 7,339 views

    Learning more about God is the greatest intellectual pursuit of the human mind. The subject of God is transcendent … as vast as infinity. But studying God, to me, is the most satisfying, uplifting, edifying, expanding, and glorious task we could ever undertake.

    This message is for our 16th Church anniversary. It speaks to our being motivated to do the work of the Lord versus being obligated.

    Don’t Do It Without Me 16th Anniversary Scriptures: Isaiah 6:8; Luke 19:1-10 Today we celebrate sixteen years as a Church. When we look around the sanctuary and see the empty seats, it appears that maybe we do not have a lot to celebrate. If you are having these thoughts, let me tell you now ...read more

     | 12,276 views

    This characteristic of love appears to be rather out-of-date. I mean, we are living in a world that is torn apart by all kinds of hatreds, national conflicts, racial strife, class warfare, & even religious hostility. Yet Paul says, "Love is not rude."

    MELVIN M. NEWLAND, MINISTER RIDGE CHAPEL, KANSAS, OK TEXT: 1 Corinthians 13:4-8; Luke 7:36-50 A. As most of you realize, during the last 2 weeks I have based my messages on Paul's description of love found in 1 Corinthians 13:4-8a ...read more

    This is the third in a series, as we look at the lessons we learn from storms. In this case the multiple storms that Paul found himself in his way to Rome

    I mentioned a couple of weeks ago that it seemed that whenever Dad and I were chatting that our conversations often drifted to storms that we had been in together when we were at sea. And the reason, of course, is that the storms are more memorable than the nice days at sea, not necessarily more ...read more

    Jesus described a final judgement that uses kindness as the determiner for who inherits the kingdom of God. Clearly kindness was important to him.

    Kindness matters Matt 25: 34-40 Pope Francis shouldn’t be extraordinary. This is the headline from the Washington post, 2013. Quote, “Pope Francis shouldn’t be extraordinary. But in a world desperate for compassion, kindness and inspiration, he is. The article continues, It is a sad state of ...read more
