  • Found In Christ

     | 374 views

    Salvation is not achieved; it is received.

    I hope that every person within earshot of my voice today is a believer in our Lord Jesus Christ. Nothing else would please me so much as if that were the case. But I cannot risk thinking it is so if it is not. Too much is at stake. Eternity is at stake. For it only faith in Christ that will secure ...read more

    The darkness in this world spreads, but the light of Christ shines. And it illumines us and radiates through us to the world.

    I want to draw your attention again to the beginning of this passage, where it say, “When he had gone out…” (John 13:31). Who is John talking about here? Who is it that has just “gone out”? It’s Judas, isn’t it? If you rewind a few verses in this thirteenth chapter of John, you see that Jesus is ...read more

  • Putting It All Together Series

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Apr 5, 2022
     | 1,560 views

    It's nonsense to build our lives on a lie, but people do it. God calls us to build on a foundation of truth.

    There is nothing quite so destructive as a lie. No one wants to be lied to. It is nothing short of betrayal. And no one wants to be lied about. It is an ugly and contemptuous act. The Bible traces our worst problems back to a lie. The serpent, remember, asked the woman whether it was true what he ...read more

    When we bear witness to the saving power of Christ, we must rely on the Spirit to empower our efforts.

    Jesus had told them to wait—His first disciples, I mean. He had given them important work to do—the most important work of all, actually—but He had told them not to attempt it just yet. No. They were to wait. “Don’t give,” He said, “until you have received. Nothing can be done by you until ...read more

  • Standing Firm In The Truth

     | 1,967 views

    The "mystery of lawlessness is already at work," but God had revealed the truth to His people, the truth in which we must "stand firm."

    God’s people in Thessalonica were confused. Someone they trusted had lied to them. Someone had told them that the day of Christ’s return had come and gone and that they had missed it. Christ’s return is just one thread, of course, in the total fabric of doctrine, but, like all the other threads, ...read more

  • The Life I Want

     | 854 views

    People don't always know that the life they want is in Jesus.

    Two sailboats slice through the waves of a vast sea. Both are seeking the shore. The crew of one vessel turns against the wind, thinking to find harbor in that direction.

    A movie by the title of The In-Laws came out in 1979. There was a re-make of it in 2003, but my favorite version is still the original one. It featured Alan Arkin as a conventional dentist and Peter Falk as a manic character who claims to be a government agent. Their kids are about to be married, ...read more

     | 1,222 views

    There are at least four core commitments for Christian living: (1) abide in the Word, (2) pray your heart out, (3) be killing sin, and (4) give your life away.

    Our lives tell a story—a story about who we are and what we value, where we’ve come from and where we’re going, what we want and what we’ll do to get it. And what most of us do is, we make “the story” of our lives about us. But God makes “the story” of our lives about Christ. Someone has said, ...read more

    ARE YOU READY? HOW MANY TIMES, do you think, have you been asked that question? Back in 1965, The Impressions released their album, People Get Ready, with its title song of the same name.

    A FEW YEARS BACK, when I was still serving as pastor at another church, we had two visitors show up at our church, a father and his son.
