    Eternal Security It's not all about you I would say that the question most frequently asked by Christians is this: is it possible for me to lose my salvation? It bothers so many of us. We know the stakes. And ...read more

    Because God's Contracts Don't Expire Series

     | 8,956 views

    Before our Thanksgiving holiday in the U.S., I was prompted at 5:30 AM Saturday morning to change my planned sermon text to consider Israel’s harvest festival. This sermon is full of details, to be avoided by those who don’t like teaching in preaching.

    This sermon needs a disclaimer and it doesn’t need to be one of those bits of legalese that we see in 6 point type in a print ad, appears briefly in barely legible type at the bottom of a television screen, or is read as rapidly as possible by a radio announcer: “Offer listed is manufacturer’s ...read more

    based on 21 ratings
     | 28,160 views

    This section warns against self-centered planning. Worldly living is not displayed only by a disbelief in God, sometimes it’s apparent in the disregarding of God as we plan our life & our daily activities.

    JAMES 4:11-17 PROPER PLANNING [Luke 12:16-21] It is too easy for Christians to make plans and set goals, expecting God to fall in line behind them. It is easy to plan our lives as if we controlled the future and had unlimited authority over the factors that affect our life. And so, in reality ...read more

    The doctrine of the church reflects our view of Christ and His Word.

None of the rest dared join them, but the people held them in high esteem. And more than ever believers were added to the Lord, multitudes of both men and ...read more

    We can't understand how incredible the comfort of God is unless we accept our pain and mourn it.

    Blessed Are Those Who Mourn Matt 5:4 March 20, 2011 Intro: Today, the second Sunday of Lent, our journey through the teachings of Jesus commonly called the “beatitudes”, brings us smack into the middle of a rather difficult teaching: “God blesses those who mourn, for they will ...read more

    A message that shows how people of all times are just like us today. We are all driven by our pasts to make decisions today that will affect our futures tomorrow.

     | 34,275 views

    This atrocity & the seriousness of its repercussions forced Jacob to finally take action with His family & seek God’s intervention. He tells his family to “Cast away the foreign gods you have with you." This focal point is the basis for revival.

    GENESIS 35: 1-15 CAST AWAY OUR IDOLS [Ezekiel 18:21-32] Sometimes it takes massive impacting events that awaken us so that we begin seriously considering our need for revival. As we grow older and settle into the routine of life and become not much different from the average believer, the ...read more

    Jesus paid the debt of sin for us. Now we are obligated to pay it forward. We repay this debt by writing checks of love and forgiveness to others.

    Pay it Forward Romans 13:8-10 A woman and her husband came to the pastor and said, “We're going to get a divorce, but we want to come to make sure that you approve of it.” There are people who come to the pastor hoping that when they say there is no feeling left in their marriage, the ...read more
