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

Everybody who desires to see Jesus can see his revelation in creation, see him in his word, and see the changes in others who came to see Jesus. Jesus comes to the rescue when his believing followers “go into all the world and preach the gospel.”

How many signs would have been sufficient for them to believe? Jesus had already performed a number of miracles there in Capernaum (i.e. a man in the synagogue with an unclean spirit (Mark 1), Peter’s mother-in-law (Mark 1), the sick and demon possessed (Mark 1), Centurion’s servant (Matt. 8)) What is necessary for us to believe?
To say that God's power is amazing is an understatement. Our words and mental capacities can not fathom the power of our Creator. By just reading through the Bible it…
If Jesus was to appear today, which group would you be apart of? The group that would bow down and praise Him or the group that would want to crucify Him?
The apostle John wrote in 1 John 4:18, “There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves punishment, and the one who fears is not perfected in love.”
As we talk about being the hands of Jesus, someone might be misled to think that we intend for Christians to do the impossible. There were quite a bit of things Jesus did that we are not capable of doing.
We must seek to be gentle people, even in the most trying times. Not because we are weak or cowardly, but because we are humble, we have placed our strength under God's control.
