    We can know we’re Christians with absolute certainty. Is this being presumptuous? The objective basis for our assurance of salvation rests on faith plus action. Our choices reflect our commitment to Christ.

    How do you know if you are a Christian? Can you? Is it possible? John says yes in his letter and gives three ways that we can know we are "living in the light." The first is the Moral Test.

    We are going to continue on in 1 John tonight. Just to recap, two weeks ago we focused on God being the one constant in our lives. His relationship with us is the only thing that will never fail and never let us down. Last week, we talked about sin and that it is a reality that we all have to deal ...read more

    let us listen to the words and statements of those who literally “left” everything to follow the Lord. Let’s listen to what John had to say about following our Savior.

    Theme: Committed to Jesus (Pt.2) Text: 1 John 2 Introduction A. Last Sunday we learned what it means to be committed to follow Jesus. Three would-be disciples of Jesus failed to exhibit a kind of commitment that He required from those who would follow Him. One was actually not willing to pay the ...read more

    Sin in a person’s life is not what determines if they are truly a Christian or not, John tells us one practical way to evaluate ourselves in our Christian walk.

    A pastor and his wife were vacationing in Estes Park, Colorado, and were having breakfast in a local coffee shop. It was empty except for four men at another table. One was mocking Christianity; in particular, the resurrection of Christ. He went on and on about what a stupid teaching that was. The ...read more

    Everyone talks about true love. But the Apostle John tells us how we are supposed to love.

    In just two days, we celebrate a holiday centered around the concept of love. We’ve seen traces of it for weeks. Hearts, flowers, candy… My wife told me exactly what she wanted this year… she told me she wanted flowers…but not roses. Anyone can get roses, she said. She wanted tulips. And so I ...read more

    Why Did Jesus Have To Die? Series

     | 5,036 views

    The death of Jesus was not by accident or by surprise but rather was a part of the plan of the Father to redeem the world

    Why did Jesus have to die? There was a greater purpose for the death of Jesus than many people realize and I do not believe that the movie truly pointed to this enough. However, the first scene Satan tells Jesus that no man can bear the world’s sin. This was the purpose of Jesus coming to this ...read more

    Are you redeemed? Are you living a redeemed life? To many of us are redeemed, however we are still bound to a old self. God has set us free. Let’s learn how to live truly redeemed lives!

    Jesus loves the song of the redeemed. The bible teaches us that the angels have a party when one soul is saved.
