The Fall And Rise Of Humanity

Contributed by Dennis Lee on Jan 17, 2021

Today's message looks at "The Fall of Humanity." But it moves beyond to look at humanity's rise once again. It also looks at the process of temptation, including questioning and denying God's word, and how that leads to misinterpreting God's motives in giving His word.

The Fall and Rise of Humanity Genesis 3:1-11 ** Watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S_D8NkKbwGI At the end of last year, the Lord laid on my heart the word, “remnant” and the “remnant church,” and began to show me what the remnant church was going to look like.

You Shall Not Steal Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 21, 2021

In a national time of revival in the country of Belfast in 1922-23, converted shipyard workers brought back tools and equipment they had stolen. They brought them back in such quantity, that an additional storage shed had to be built to hold the tools once stolen.

Stealing has become a big business in our wireless age. A survey of 583 companies in the U.S. revealed: “90% of the respondents said their organizations’ computers had been breached at least once by hackers over the past 12 months.” More than 40% of the businesses surveyed stated they had spent ...read more

The Nourishment You Need

Contributed by Mark Adams on Aug 13, 2011

This is a sermon that focuses primarily on Amos 8, looking at how a deficiency of the Word of God plays out in our lives individually and as a culture.

Amos has always seemed to me like a man I could enjoy being around. He was plain spoken, and to the point. He was the kind of guy who appreciated hard work. Amos was a shepherd. He didn’t shepherd those pretty, fluffy white sheep. Based on the word used, he worked with a really ugly, ...read more

Contributed by William Meakin on May 27, 2024

As the welcome signs of spring transmogrify into summer, the flowers alter their appearance into a new delight.

Henry Theodore Tuckerman, an American writer and essayist once remarked: “To analyze the charms of flowers is like dissecting music; it is one of those things which it is far better to enjoy, than to attempt to fully understand.” Song of Solomon 2:12 reminds us: “The flowers appear on the earth, ...read more
