Some say, love has abolished the law. But the Bible says that love fulfills the law. When we keep the law, we show thereby that we have love. The last six of the Ten Commandments, which regulate our relationship with our neighbor, show us HOW we can love him. At the same time, when we express love toward our neighbor, we love OURSELVES. Each and every commandment that regulates our relationship with our neighbor falls under the heading, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself." This sermon shows how we love ourselves when we love our neighbor.

The world is again looking at the Holy Land and the ongoing violence there, while the Islamic world is asked to unite against Israel. The Catholic Church is accusing Netanyahu’s “far-right government” of “emboldening” extremists to attack Christians. Also, six Christian denominations are fighting for control of their faith’s holy sites. All of this, and much more, will lead to the occupation of the Holy Land by the “false prophet” with support of the “beast.”

This message looks at the time when the word no can actually be positive, rather than negative. Applying this approach to certain passages in the Book of Revelation we see that the word “no” can be very exciting.

You must not think that it is impossible for you to depart and fall away from God and return to the filth of the world, after you have come to know God and His Truth. The Bible contains many warnings, as well as explanations of why people fall away and how to prevent it. And it also calls for repentance and a change of heart when we are about to fall away.

Beyond the offering we give, have you ever considered what goes with it? That is what I want to address in this sermonette.

Sin has a simple definition in that it is the transgression of God’s law. It is easiest to identify sin by the overt actions that transgress laws directly. Yet, sin is also possible through neglect. On the Christian journey to turn away from sin, it is necessary to discover the ways in which we sin through our inaction, and take the initiative to adopt new behavior.

We demonstrate love for others when we seek the interests of others, showing our concern through outgoing acts of care and generosity. When we bring our offerings to God it expresses our love for Him by demonstrating our willingness to sacrifice of ourselves.

Dave Harris will be giving the sermon.

We should approach the service with anticipation and what it means to us. We can learn from Jesus who used the example of footwashing to teach his disciples the importance of service to others. He encouraged them to never consider themselves to be “too good” to serve others. Humble service is a fundamental part of the Christian life and must characterize the life of every disciple of Jesus Christ.

Brian Gale will be giving the sermon.

God is willing to reveal His knowledge to you which is opposed to the so-called wisdom of this world, but are you willing to reject this world’s silly philosophies and rather accept and act upon the knowledge of God? And how careful are you not to lose the understanding which God has given to you, while at the same time growing and increasing in His knowledge?

If Donald Trump were ever convicted and imprisoned, could he still run for the Presidency; could he be elected; and could he still operate as President from prison? If Vladimir Putin were ever arrested in a foreign country, such as Germany or Austria, due to the arrest warrant of the International Criminal Court, what did Russia say it would do to those countries? In other news, we address the postponement of the visit of King Charles in France due to France’s “descent into anarchy”; problems the Biden family is facing; the ongoing bank debacle; calls for the removal of Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell; and the liberal “reform” movement of the German Catholic church.

Many are concerned that the German Catholic Church will split from Rome. The German bishops are determined to pursue certain “reforms” regardless of what the Vatican says. Others in the Catholic Church are worried that pagan practices and customs are invited into the Church. What could this all mean?

In the coming weeks, months and years we are going to be challenged on multiple fronts. The Bible's warnings about a Christians life are stark. How do we plan on getting through these times? How are we going to react? We are going to haveto be tough in ways that we may not be currently preparedfor. What can we do to prepare now?

There are many kinds of deals that are made for various reasons. Throughout the Bible, we read stories about deals being made, oftentimes by those who try to get something in return, which can be good or bad "deals." What can we learn from these and what is the greatest deal that we can make for the best possible outcome?

Suddenly, American banks are collapsing or are in great danger. Some constitute the biggest failure since the Great Recession in 2008 and the second and third largest bank failure in U.S. history. European banks are affected too. Some speak of a coming recession, if not depression, more powerful than that of 2029. Does this mean that we must live in constant fear of financial ruin and disaster, or can we have trust in God that He will protect and take care of us, if we do our part?

Will you be ready when Christ returns? Are you strong enough and are you prepared when the moment arises when we need to "evacuate"in the end time? What do we need to do now to be prepared?

Michael Link will present the Sermon.

In the world, the goal for humans it seems, is to accomplish as much as is possible. There are some humans who seemto be able to do it all, accomplishinggreat milestones and leaving amazing legacies. How do we stack up as Christians? What can we accomplish in this lifetime? Does it matter what we accomplish? What does God think?

Many in Israel feel that it is “now or never” to strike Tehran’s nuclear program, with or without American support. At the same time, concerns grow especially in Britain that Iran might soon attack the UK and Western allies. But the UK is actually facing a much bigger threat from another power.

On January 27, 2023, the world remembered the Holocaust which started in 1933—90 years ago. But much about the Holocaust has been conveniently ignored or forgotten, which goes hand in hand with rampant Antisemitism, especially in Europe... with terrible consequences for the future, as the Bible clearly reveals.

It is obvious that we eat unleavened bread during the Days of Unleavened Bread festival each year. But do we eat unleavened bread each day of the seven days? Unless there is a very compelling reason or an emergency, we should eat this on a daily basis, as this message shows.
