    Jesus Believes In Hell

    Contributed by Keith Foskey on Apr 15, 2014
     | 3,656 views

    Jesus believes in hell... so should we.

    Jesus Believes in Hell Matthew 5:29-30 It is an interesting reality that a much higher percentage of people believe in the existence of heaven than believe in the existence of hell. Yet, according to the Bible, hell is just as real as heaven. The Bible clearly and explicitly teaches that hell ...read more

    What does it mean when Christ said that He came to "fulfill" the Law?

    “Christianity and the Law of God” Matthew 5:17-20 We continue this morning in our study of the Sermon on the Mount. Last week, we saw how Jesus proclaimed the truth that His followers are the Salt and Light of the world - agents of change, meant to be ambassadors of Christ in the ...read more

    What would you say to a man who was afraid of dying? A man who knew his death was just months away but couldn't handle that truth? Would you be able to turn his fear into hope?

    OPEN: I recently listened to a man named Chris tell of visiting his relatives in Kokomo, Indiana. One night his family took him out to and treated him to a special meal at the Texas Roadhouse restaurant.

     | 6,444 views

    The enemies of the cross at Jesus' arrest show us strong lessons about the Kingdom of Christ.

    When we hear the word, “arrested”, we think of criminals. Criminals are an unusual sort, as far as I can tell. I hear tell of a set of criminal brothers who did all sorts of crime. As a matter of fact, if a crime occurred in this small community, one, if not both, of these boys had ...read more

    Being Led By The Spirit Series

    Contributed by Jason Smith on May 16, 2014
    based on 5 ratings
     | 25,165 views

    This lesson explores what scripture teaches us regarding being led by the Holy Spirit and compares what the Bible says to some common beliefs as to how the Spirit leads God's people.

    Not many people will disagree with the statement that the Spirit of God leads Christians today, but when you ask how He leads us, the debate begins. Pretty much every religious group that calls itself "Christian" believes they are being led by the Spirit to believe and practice the things they do ...read more

    Friends In High Places Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on May 18, 2014
    based on 15 ratings
     | 37,621 views

    What impressed Jesus in this story was the faith of the men who'd brought their friend to him - a friend who was crippled and lived in a low place of life. The phrase is "Jesus saw their faith." What does that mean? And what can it mean to us?

    A few years back, Garth Brooks came out with a popular Country and Western song called: “I’ve Got Friends In Low Places” How many of you have ever heard the song? (when most of them raised their hands, I stage whispered: “Pagans”) It has a catchy tune, but it is NOT a ...read more

    Three Portraits Of Salvation In Philippi

    Contributed by John Hamby on May 27, 2014
    based on 1 rating
     | 14,573 views

    Every morning and every evening the head of a Jewish household would pray, giving thanks that God had not created him “a Gentile, a woman or a slave.” It hardly seems coincidental that the first three conversions which take place at Philippi, come from those three despised categories.

    To beat discouragement and defeat, learn the secret of our co-ownership in Christ, share the secret, and live the secret in our relationships with each other.

    Three preachers were on a non-productive fishing trip when they began to discuss various topics to pass the time. One preacher said he thought it would be nice if they confessed their biggest sins to each other and then prayed for each other. They all agreed, and the first preacher said that his ...read more
