What do you believe in? Do you believe in only those things which you can see, hear, taste, touch, or smell? Are you concerned only with what you can accomplish and acquire in this life?  If  so, you are missing a very important truth – there is a world, more real than this one in which God, His Son, His Spirit move and act.  It is a world inhabited by myriads upon myriads of angels and the spirits of the righteous made perfect.  It is also a world inhabited by Satan, his angels, and the spirits of the wicked.

That world exists alongside our world and one day we will see it as plainly as we see each other today. The knowledge of the existence of such a world should change the way we think about life here.  If we are not living our lives in view of the eternal, we are making a grave mistake.

Join with us in a series of lessons of  “Living Like a Christian”  brought to us by Brother Jeff Keele as he opens the Word of God and helps us to understand God’s plan for living as He asks us to.

 

Along with being able to listen to the sermons here on our website, they are available in audio CD format as well.  Please contact our church office if you would like to have a copy of these

In these difficult times, if you haven’t already done so, I want to encourage each of you to pick up God’s Word. Read it. Meditate upon it. Let God speak to your heart and your soul. I promise you, it will make a difference in your life. Time spent in His Word on a regular basis will bring more benefit to your life than we can possibly fathom.

Ignorance and inexperience with grief, especially that which accompanies the loss of a mate, makes it difficult (if not impossible) to minister effectively to those trying to live after loss.…
But, who are we? Paul says we are “earthen vessels”(NKJV, NASB95), “jars of clay” (ESV, NIV84). Long ago, Job asked God, “Remember now, that You have made me as clay” (Job 10:9). You and I carry about in our frail mortal bodies a light derived from the central source of light, Jesus Christ. Paul said that it is in order “to show that the surpassing power belongs to God and not to us” (2 Corinthians 4:7b, ESV)
People are hurting. In John 13:34-35 we are called to love one another. Love is the reason we are here. Jesus said, "Greater love has no one than this, that…
God has given us the opportunity to make a difference in our community. That difference starts with who we are — how do we treat one another. In 1 Thessalonians…
Today, if you and I are to have any part in Him, we must allow Him to wash us in the waters of baptism, even as the early Christians did.
I thank my God in all my remembrance of you, always offering prayer with joy in my every prayer for you all, in view of your participation in the gospel from the first day until now. For I am confident of this very thing, that He who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus. Philippians 1:3–6

In the first part, we began looking at John 11, and the amazing miracle which John narrates for us — the raising of Lazarus, a man who had been dead…
When Abram, Levi & Saul’s names were changed, they were thereafter called by their new name.  Why was Jacob called both Jacob & Israel after his name was changed?
