Sharing the Good News Acts 9:1-19 9 And Saul, yet breathing out threatenings and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, went unto the high priest, 2 And desired of him letters to Damascus to the synagogues, that if he found any of this way, whether they were men or women, he might bring them bound unto Jerusalem. 3 And as he journeyed, he came near Damascus: and suddenly there shined round about him a light from heaven: 4 And he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying unto him, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? 5 And …

My God Church folks, and others, often tell me what their god is like. They tell me, “My god doesn’t judge people”, or ,”My god wouldn’t send people to hell.”etc. I tell them ,”You are right. Your god wouldn’t send people to hell because your god doesn’t exist. He/she/it is just a figment of your imagination. A vain hope and a frivolous faith in wishful thinking. (I usually say it nicer than that) But for the benefit of those who invent gods instead of worshipping God; let me tell you of my God My God is the living God, the …

The Night The Angels Cried Dr. Mike Murphy So many times, I have wondered what it must have been like. To have been present in the small town of Judea on that incredible night. To have watched the crowds as they filled the city. To have heard the first cry of an infant born. As those in Bethlehem that night looked into the peacefulness of the sky, I wonder if any knew how those cries would soon and forever change the world? As beautiful as the stars must have shown that night, I also wonder what the view was like …

Psalm 71:3 (KJV) 3 Be thou my strong habitation, whereunto I may continually resort: thou hast given commandment to save me; for thou art my rock and my fortress. Peace On Stormy Seas I sailed upon a tranquil sea Where all was peace and calm; I felt my life serene and blessed, I knew not storm or qualm. Then clouds of doubt began to form, The wind did stir and blow; My tranquil sea did heave and toss, I felt my anguish grow. I cried, “Dear Lord, are you out there? You see my ship storm-tossed? Why do you leave …

The Covetous Nation Every day they past beside each other on the street, but they might have well lived in two different cities. Each day they locked eyes, but with each glance they never saw the other.. Though they shared the same first name, they lived in two different worlds in society’s eyes. They were the same age, and had grown up within a few miles of each other. So much they had in common, but so little keep them a world apart. James managed one of the top investment firms in the city. In the twenty years since college, …

Visitors No More Dr. Mike Murphy November 9, 2018 ….the conclusion to The Visitors and More Than Just Visitors As the pastor gave his sermon that Sunday morning, he could pick out each of the board members by their actions.  Each seemed anxious, always fidgeting, just not able to sit still that morning during the service. And as he watched each, he knew how they felt.  Since the meeting on Friday night, the Holy Spirit had been in his ear the whole time. Showing him ways to help the family that he otherwise would have never thought of, never would …

Dr. Mike Murphy November 7, 2018 ….continued from The Visitors What the Holy Spirit had shown him that night, the pastor knew required his immediate action.  Every ounce of his being was calling him to act now, to do today, what the Lord did not want him to wait to do tomorrow.  So before the pastor could even think of going to bed that Thursday night, he had already messaged the entire church board.  Calling all to an emergency meeting at the church the next evening. For a meeting to be called by the pastor on a Friday night, had …

by Pete Garcia For this we say to you by the word of the Lord (John 14:1-3), that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord will by no means precede those who are asleep. For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord. Therefore comfort one another with …

Why did the Messiah (Christ) have to die? One question that comes up is, Why did the Messiah (Christ) have to die? The bottom line is that in the government of God, when humanity fell, then the principle God had put in for the forgiveness of sin having to do with the shedding of blood. The shedding of blood always meant the means of the remission of sin. The chief principle started out right when Adam and Eve were cast out of the Garden of Eden because they were naked. When he cast them out of the garden, He made …

God Hears Job 42:1-11 42 Then Job answered Jehovah, and said, 2 I know that thou canst do all things, And that no purpose of thine can be restrained. 3 Who is this that hideth counsel without knowledge? Therefore have I uttered that which I understood not, Things too wonderful for me, which I knew not. 4 Hear, I beseech thee, and I will speak; I will demand of thee, and declare thou unto me. 5 I had heard of thee by the hearing of the ear; But now mine eye seeth thee: 6 Wherefore I abhor myself, And repent …
