    What do you want? That is a question life asks of us and the question God asked Solomon in IKings 3:5. Solomon answered wisely. On the other hand, Cain, Balaam, the Rich Young Ruler, Judas, and others in the Bible chose a course that led to destruction.

    Jesus was never to busy to stop and help whoever was in need. Wether a tax collector, or a rich young ruler. He showed grace to everyone, all the way to the cross. If we call ourselves Christian and we are Christ, shouldn't we be willing to do the same?

    Compassionate Grace Matthew 18:35-42 NKJ 35 Then it happened, as He was coming near Jericho, that a certain blind man sat by the road begging. 36 And hearing a multitude passing by, he asked what it meant. 37 So they told him that Jesus of Nazareth was passing by. 38 And he cried out, saying, ...read more

    You can either accept your trials and they will become heavenly blessings or you can fight your trials and they will become heavy burdens.

    Over the past three weeks, we’ve been taking a Biblical look at hardship … what the Bible says it is … why we experience hardship … and how we should respond to the trials and challenges of life from a Biblical perspective. God uses the trials and hardships of life to teach us … to help us grow ...read more

    In this sermon we will compare and contrast two Jews we encounter in the Gospels. One is a wealthy young ruler and the other is a widow. One has much and gives little. The other has little and gives much. Instead of the “balanced” life we often are ex

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Apr 29, 2024
     | 904 views

    Governments and rulers and institutions and people have turned away from God. Why is that we might wonder? Has the message been passed from one generation to another? Have the churches been faithful in relaying the gospel, or has Christianity become something infused into the culture?

    We're fighting an enemy we can't see... but then we can't see Covid either. World rulers have geared up to fight Covid and will not be satisfied until that enemy is defeated. Are we as committed to defeating our enemy?

    When those who rule are unjust, how shall the Christian respond? David provides a model for godly response in this 58th Psalm as he encourages the godly to look to the Lord for His deliverance.

    TO THE CHOIRMASTER: ACCORDING TO DO NOT DESTROY. A MIKTAM OF DAVID. Do you indeed decree what is right, you gods? Do you judge the children of man uprightly? No, in your hearts you devise wrongs; your hands deal out violence on earth. The wicked are estranged from the womb; they go astray ...read more

    One of the things that I believe we sometimes forget is that the words that we speak mean a lot more than what we may think. This message is about the importance of speaking in agreement with God.

    Are Your Words Testifying Against You? One of the things that I believe we sometimes forget is that the words that we speak mean a lot more than what we may think.

    Don’t grumble because you don’t have what you want, be thankful you don’t get what you deserve. The rich young ruler missed the true meaning of Life that only Jesus can give, let’s examine it together!

     | 5,447 views

    Christ exemplified a character of being the humble ruler, the good shepherd and the passionate deliverer. What will we do with this? Should we really care about this at all? Why was God so mindful of us? Why should He have cared? Are we really worth it?

    Opening illustration: Abraham Lincoln’s humble beginnings have become part of American lore. But one historian says that the most difficult part of young Abraham’s life came not during his early years in a Kentucky cabin, but after Thomas Lincoln moved the family to Indiana in 1816.

    It is not easy to read God’s providence, but faith grasps that even behind what is indiscernible ‘in all things God works for the good of those who love Him’ (Rom 8:28). Though the rulers of the world were not watching out for God’s people, the Lord was.
