    based on 2 ratings
     | 5,937 views

    This exposition of Philippians 2:12-18 focuses on what New Testament obedience looks like. The dangers of legalism and antinomianism are addressed. Preparations for an uncertain future are discussed as well.

    Intro Our lives have changed significantly since the beginning of 2020. The big question is what changes lie ahead. Will things settle down and stabilize? Or will events become even more volatile? Will the coronavirus subside, or will infections escalate? Will the political divide in this country ...read more

    Christ The King

    Paul presents a superior view of Christ as King with a deep understanding of His death on the cross. Unlike earthly kings, Jesus reigns from a cross. God rules the world from a cross of suffering love.

Abe, the merchant, said he had some mustard, but would have to go down to the cellar to find it. So, Bill tagged along with him. There, to his surprise, were ...read more

    Millions of people have cited the words of the Apostle’s Creed. Do you think for a moment that Pilate’s mother thought her son would be referenced in every Christian creed for centuries to come?

    It is Christmas and you are probably came expecting me to talk about shepherds, wise men, and Mary & Joseph every time Christmas comes around. Instead, scattered throughout your New Testament little statements of why Jesus Christmas came into existence. These statements tell you why Jesus came ...read more

    Run To The Roar Series

    Independence Day: This message looks at what the NT says about fighting; and it reflects on the initial battles of the American Revolution, with an application toward the spiritual conflict that we face in America today.

    I’ve entitled our message this morning, “Run to the Roar.” The Fourth of July is a national holiday that many churches recognize; one which “celebrates America’s Declaration of Independence from the tyranny of England under King George the III.”(1) I find it interesting that we have a day ...read more

    Understanding Biblical truth in a post-truth world

    The 2018 notable quote of the year came from Rudy Giuliani, an American politician who said, “Truth isn’t truth”. He meant that there are lots of versions of the truth, different versions called “alternative facts”. We live in a post-truth world. Unfortunately “truth” in the 21st century has a very ...read more

    Who Kicked Jesus Out Of Politics? Theocracy And Democracy.

    Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Jul 17, 2016
     | 4,801 views

    Today the neglect of the Bible and of God in society is evident. The separation of Church and state was originally designed to protect both Church and state, but is now used to subjugate any influence of God in politics?

    WHO KICKED JESUS OUT OF POLITICS? Theocracy and Democracy. DEMOCRACY We get what we ask for, but for Australia it seems we don’t really know what that is. Australia voted and it seems no-one really likes any particular party. The common definition of democracy is “government of the ...read more

    Jesus kingdom is not from this world but he taught us to respect the ones in power. In history God uses His people to influence and free His people. As Christians we must fight for the right by all means necessary, spiritually and politically.

    Religion and Politics: We must talk about them! Kelly Durant Nov. 2016 John 18:36 Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, My servants would fight, so that I should not be delivered to the Jews; but now My kingdom is not from here.” 2. Why is ...read more

    Jesus' testimony before Pilate spoke of the purpose of His coming. Though we speak of joy and peace in Christ, it is essential that He came to bring salvation. This He has done through presenting His life as a sacrifice. Those who believe are ushered into His Kingdom.

    “Pilate entered his headquarters again and called Jesus and said to him, ‘Are you the King of the Jews?’ Jesus answered, ‘Do you say this of your own accord, or did others say it to you about me?’ Pilate answered, ‘Am I a Jew? Your own nation and the chief priests have delivered you over to me. ...read more

    Jesus receives the title, “King of the Jews,” but he declares that his kingdom is not of this world and it is a kingdom of truth.. If it is not of this world, then where is it? And, where can we find the truth? Is God’s kingdom confined to heaven, or does

    INTRODUCTION Pilate’s question, “What is Truth?” was a hotly debated question centuries before he took his first breath and for millennia after he took his last. With so many religious purveyors of truth, we have come to question the reality of absolute truth. Relative truth is currently ...read more

    God’s desired will — with omissions and out of sequence — is no longer God’s will. The cross could not be bypassed. Jesus had to wear the crown of thorns before He could wear the crown of the Kingdom.
