    Series on 1 John: call to really know who we are in Christ, and in knowing, persevere.

    Now We are the Children of God — 1 Jn 3:1-3 An ancient Greek philosopher once said “Man, know thyself.” That may be easier said than done. How many of us really know who we are? How many are willing to look deeply within? Even among Christians, do we really understand who we are? Do we live like ...read more

    99 And 44/100% Pure

    Contributed by Keith Broyles on Dec 4, 2007

     | 4,156 views

    None of us are perfect, but maybe with the help of God we can get to be 99 and 44/100% pure.

    One of the real catchwords that advertisers love to use these days is pure. I guess the thinking goes that if the company can convince us, the consumers, that the product is pure, we will buy it. If we really stop, and we listen to what people are saying, we can hear them using the word “pure” ...read more

    We are commanded to purify ourselves as God is pure. But how do we go about doing that?

    100% PURE INTRODUCTION: Advertisers like to have the claim that their products are pure. They know that consumers admire a product’s purity. We don’t like manufactured additives or preservatives in our products. We want it pure and natural¾nothing artificial. We spend money on water purifiers and ...read more

    The bible reveals who and what are saints. Often our ideas differ from the bible. This sermon encourages you to discover who are saints and what do they do.

    If you were to ask someone what they thought a saint is, how would they respond? Many would probably say someone holy. Someone who has done extraordinary things, Someone considered special. Someone who has done nothing or very little wrong. The most well known and celebrated saint in Australia, is ...read more

    To help us understand the love the Father has for us so we will receive it (become adopted as a child in the family), return it, and share it (with our children).

    I remember the pastor of our church sharing one time that becoming a father was the greatest help for his theology, that is, for his understanding of God. He knew up here [pointing to head] that God loved him, but when he had a child he began to understand more in here [heart] that God has the ...read more

     | 24,035 views

    Many times we didn’t realize that rejection is a result of lying spirit from the devil. I hope after reading this sermon, we would not be fooled by devil’s trick to put children of God down

    Rejection is the worst pain the human spirit can suffer. Rejection is at the root of many emotional problems and many health issues. When we are rejected by others, we can also reject ourselves. As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he." (Proverbs 23:7) HOW REJECTION CAN COME IN ? MARRIAGE = ...read more

    We must consistently share our lives with God by spending time in His word and in prayer to continue fellowshipping with Him.

    Consistency: a piece of the universe that seems to be lacking more than most any other component. As human beings, we thrive on consistency. Every day you may put your glasses on the bedside table or on your dresser before you go to sleep so that when you wake up you will always know where it is. ...read more
