Having defined these two schemes of Lust and Hedonism we illustrated them using the writings of the Apostle Paul and James the brother of our Lord, Today, we will answer the question, "How can we guard our hope from...

Sunday Assembly for Sunday July 21, 2024.

Have you ever heard the old saying, "Money is a wonderful tool but a terrible Master!" Money and the riches of this world are not evil in and of itself. The problem is found in our lustful desires for it and all that it can do to us if we choose to live for it and not for the LORD. Like most inanimate objects it is neither evil or good. How it is used can be either evil or good, thus it is what re...

Will you answer the hard questions or will you bask in the easy grace being proclaimed from so many pulpits today? Our beloved brother Luke reminds us that our Lord said, "Strive to enter the narrow door; for many, I tell you, will seek to enter but not be able." Also, Matthew reminds us of these words in Matthew 7:13-14, "Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is broad th...

Morning assembly for June 9th with Bill Compton

We have an eternal relationship with the LORD Jesus Christ based upon genuine faithfulness and real love, not rules and regulations! Our Hope is eternally secure through Faith and Love! Christ’s love and faithfulness is demonstrated in His living a holy and blameless life and then sacrificing Himself for us on the cross, and even now, in His continual presence and intercession for us as our High P...

Brian Bragg gives morning assembly sermon.

Jesus Christ reigns Supreme over all of Creation! As the great Apostle Paul wrote to the church at Colossae, "For by Him all thing were created, both in the heavens and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities - all things have been created through Him and for Him." Peter tells us that we are protected by the power of God! The hope of our salvation and...

Did you know that if it were not for the LORD's deep and abiding mercy for mankind we would all be hopelessly lost?

"Hope is Abundant with Christ in Your Life!"  The New Testament is filled with passages of Scripture that speak of the great hope that Christians can and do experience through faith and obedience to the LORD's word.  You see, we must understand that our hope is build on some very important and powerful foundational principles found in the New Testament.  First, our faith is based on upon God's wor...

This morning we begin a mini-series titled "Moving from a Hopeless to a Hope-Filled Life!" For a human being hopelessness can be defined in many ways. With a mind set on the carnal needs and wants in this world life can become hopeless very quickly. Even if a person's life is filled with all good things they may still be living a life that is hopeless. Understanding true hopelessness will help us...

Praise the LORD, by His glorious design, those of us who are Christians have been born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead!  If you were able to join us in person or online last LORD's Day morning we learned what it means to born again and what it means that we have been born again to living hope filled with countless blessing in this life and in the next.

It is great news to know that as humans, though we were were born into a world of broken dreams and a DEAD HOPE, we can be born again into a LIVING HOPE which provides a life of real meaning, purpose, joy, and peace in a world filled with disappointment and sorrow.  This promise is conditional and Jesus says, You must be born again!  This morning we will listen to the Word of Christ as He explains...

I love the old Hymn, "On Christ the Solid Rock I Stand!"  So many of the old hymns and songs teach powerful Scriptural truths and this one speaks the truth when the lyrics speak, "My hope is built on nothing less that Jesus' blood and righteousness."  This morning we will delve into the meaning of Hebrews 10:19-23.  We will discover that our hope and confidence of being resurrected unto life etern...

This morning we will examine the first of our two anchor verses for this year's theme, "The Power of Hope!" In Psalm 62:1-12 we will find the first of many Old Testament definitions and illustrations of our unshakeable hope. There is only one true and lasting hope in this life. There is no other!
