God So Loved the World

Norbert Link | April 9, 2009

Do we fully grasp the tremendous sacrifice which both the Father and the Son gave for mankind? Are we fulfilling Christ’s command to love others as He loved us? Are we even close to understanding that the Father loves us with the same love with which He loves Christ–and that His love must be in us? How can this be?

Spring Cleaning

Eric Rank | April 4, 2009

Each year before Passover, we are obliged as Christians to examine ourselves so that we can participate in the ceremony in a worthy manner. In order to examine ourselves correctly, we must seek the divine will of God, seeing ourselves through His perspective, rather than our own. Pride is the single greatest trait that stands in the way of doing this correctly. Only when we overcome pride and use the Holy Spirit of God as our guide, can we truly examine ourselves correctly.

It's Easter Time Again

Norbert Link | March 21, 2009

While the world is engaged in Easter celebrations, some Christians are not. WHY would anyone claiming to be a Christian not celebrate the most important festival of the Christian world, purportedly memorializing the death and resurrection of our Savior, Jesus Christ? Simply put, because the origins of Easter are not Christian at all, and the death and resurrection of Christ did not occur on Good Friday and Easter Sunday.

Only When It Suits Us

Brian Gale (United Kingdom) | March 14, 2009

This sermon looks at seven basic areas where we can fall into the trap of neglect or apathy, not because of ignorance, but because we have been taught consistently in the Church over the years, these vital principles.  True Christianity is not pick and mix.   It is not about choosing the bits we like and agree with and ignoring the bits that don’t suit us.  Christianity is a package, and we have to embrace the whole package.  It should always be a case of being true to our calling in all areas, at all times, not just when it suits us!

Greater Works

Dave Harris | March 7, 2009

Jesus promised that His disciples would do the kinds of works He did and even greater ones! Did that actually occur? Will greater works also be done in these prophetic times that the Bible identifies as the last days?

Lying – An Everyday Activity

Brian Gale (United Kingdom) | February 28, 2009

We are surrounded today by lies and liars – emanating from every nook and cranny of society.  We must be careful that we don’t get caught up in this practice that is roundly condemned by God.  Lying is a grievous sin.  For liars, it brings the second death.  Jesus always told the truth.  And that is the way that we should be.

The Sabbath

Rene Messier (Canada) | February 28, 2009

The Sabbath was made for man and was instituted by God on creation week as a day of rest and worship to Him.  It is also the only sign  given to true Christians that we are worshipping the one and true God .  No other day has been designated for true Christians to worship God.

The Books of Psalms

Norbert Link | February 21, 2009

The Psalms have always been a source of inspiration and encouragement for Jews and Christians alike–especially, when facing difficulties and trials. But did you know that the five books or sections of the Psalms are mirroring the five books of Moses, and that there is a prophetic story flow in the collection of Psalms–starting with our life in this present evil world of Satan, and concluding with God’s rule over all of creation?

The Interview and the Job

Kalon Mitchell | January 31, 2009

The jobs we have are important so that we can survive. Our spiritual jobs are more important because they preclude our eternal life. We have to do our best to overcome sin and trust in God for everything. We are to be as lighthouse’s shining in this world of darkness, showing people by our good actions what it means to be a christian.

The 9th Commandment

Michael Link | January 31, 2009

Is it ok to lie at any time for any reason, whether considered “innocent” or serious?  Are we strong enough to stand up for the truth in any given situation where many would take the “easy way” out by lying about it?  What does the Bible have to say about lying and how serious is it?

Poetry in the Hebrew Bible

Norbert Link | January 24, 2009

In the Old Testament, several poetic devices were used for teaching, prophesying or worship. Although constituting sophisticated art in the truest sense of the word, they were a delight to read and recite, and they are an important means for better understanding. Take a journey with us to learn more about the Hebrew poetry of acrostic and parallel writing.

With God

Dave Harris | January 17, 2009

The Bible records examples of those who were without God in their lifetimes and those whom God was with. The sacrifice of Jesus Christ has made it possible for Christians to be with the Father and Christ both now and, ultimately, as members of the everlasting Family of God.

Converting Others – Why Not?

Norbert Link | January 10, 2009

Are we supposed to try to change or convert others so that they will accept and live by the truth? Does God try at all times to lead every human being to salvation? Why do Christians have to be drawn by the Father? Why are they described as firstfruits, predestined, called, elect, or chosen? Why is God’s true Church identified as the “little flock”? Why does God blind the eyes of people?

Feedback Loops

Eric Rank | December 27, 2008

Systems provide us with a structure for making decisions and acting in order to achieve a desired outcome. Feedback loops within a system act to stabilize or destabilize a system. A negative feedback loop in a system stabilizes an environment so the desired outcome can be reached more reliably. The Bible provides us with a system by which we can live our lives. By applying the negative feedback loop of repentance in the system of living a Christian life, we can overcome sin, and reach the desired outcome of eternal life.

Knowing God

Robb Harris | December 27, 2008

How well do we know God?  More importantly, how well does God know us?  We must emulate the attitude of children, as Christ commanded, after our baptism.  What characteristics of a child should we try to copy and which should we try to avoid?
