Having the Spirit of Repentance

Given by Mark Whynaucht
March 1, 2025

“Search me, O God, and know my heart”. This is something that we must do all year long, year after year, as we partake of the Passover, and renew our covenant. God’s Holy Spirit teaches us that we need ongoing repentance. We must open the doors to the archives that are called the depths of our being, the depths...

I Shall Be Clean

Given by Mark Whynaucht
February 15, 2025

: Brethren, as we get closer to the Passover and Days of Unleavened Bread, God wants us to come completely out of sin. He makes it possible through His Son, Jesus Christ, by forgiving our sins. He says, "I also make it possible by washing you, sanctifying you, and justifying you." That is who you are, brethren. You are...

Remembering the Sabbath, Part 3

Given by Mark Whynaucht
February 8, 2025

I pray that we all understand that as a church need to take the Sabbath more seriously. We need to realize that we have let some things slip, because we got caught going down a road that we didn’t pay close enough attention to. We must take the Sabbath more seriously. We must keep it holy because our salvation...

Remembering the Sabbath Day, Part 2

Given by Mark Whynaucht
February 1, 2025

When God calls us to "remember" in Scripture, it often signifies more than simply recalling facts or events. It involves actively bringing to mind His works, promises, and character in a way that shapes our faith, actions, and relationship with Him. All of these things are a part of that, and it’s so important that we understand....

So Doing

Given by Mark Whynaucht
January 25, 2025

In order to be found so doing we must continue down the path. When we fall down remember—God doesn’t count knock downs as long as we get back up and keep going, keeping the goal constantly in mind. We must stick close to the trunk of the tree. Remember God called us to use us as bond servants....

Two Things We Need in This Life

Given by Delvin Mellerup
January 25, 2025

We need trials to learn and blessing for the encouragement to keep going.

Pride Leads to Destruction

Given by Mark Whynaucht
January 18, 2025

There is a barrier between God and us. That barrier is simply labeled pride. It’s an exaggerated sense of self-importance, of self-value, and a diminished appreciation for God. So, what can be done about it? The answer is through the spirit of God, as we cry out to Him in a greater sense of self-awareness. As we see these...

Quit Complaining

Given by Brent Martin
January 11, 2025

Complaining is something that all of us do, Christians included. But is it really that big of a deal? In this sermon, we will examine the topic of complaining in great detail to see that's it's not just a matter of words coming from our mouth, but a reflection of our heart.

Remember the Sabbath Day, Part 1

Given by Mark Whynaucht
January 4, 2025

Every Sabbath is a test! Every Sabbath God wants to know how you’re doing, how you feel, what you’re thinking, and where are you going with My day, My time, that I have given you to understand? God’s word tells us that the judgment, or the sifting, or the process of evaluating us goes on all the...

According to the Measure of Christ’s Gift, Part 2

Given by Mark Whynaucht
December 14, 2024

As we search for our spiritual gifts, we have to remember always that God will not condemn us for not being able to list them one by one. He’s far more interested in whether we are serving Him, His church, our fellow man, His commandments, growing in grace and knowledge, and bearing fruit of the Holy Spirit. We need...

According to the Measure of Christ’s Gift

Given by Mark Whynaucht
December 7, 2024

In the New Testament, God has gifted the members of the body for building the spiritual tabernacle or temple of God. All of these gifts are given to each member of the church to fulfill His purpose. In I Peter 4:10, it states that every one of us has been given that particular ability to have at least that one gift,...

Being a Good Samaritan

Given by Mark Whynaucht
November 9, 2024

What about the parable of the Good Samaritan. Is this the crux of Christianity? No! Is it an important thing for us to learn and practice? Yes! Is balance needed? Yes! But we don’t need to feel guilty, though, if we put God and His commission first in our lives. That is the real key to success in fulfilling...

No Other Gods Before Me

Given by Mark Whynaucht
November 4, 2024

In the life and days ahead, it may become necessary to give up a lot of the things we want and that we are used to having. But to sacrifice our relationship with God—to put other gods before God—is not an option for converted Christians. Other things will come along, which will try to get us off-track by...

A Greater and More Perfect Tabernacle

Given by Mark Whynaucht
October 12, 2024

The Day of Atonement thus pictures the loving reconciliation we have with God, made possible through Christ’s sacrifice. It’s in the future for the world, but the reconciliation atonement already affective is for us, as the people of God. This day just doesn’t picture the removal of the devil. It pictures the work of Jesus Christ on...

Jesus Christ, the Model of Godly Love

Given by Mark Whynaucht
October 3, 2024

There are some very painful days ahead so that all mankind can learn once and for all that true Godly love will never tolerate that which is evil. When we hear of Godly love, there must never be a missing dimension for us. If we want to have the mind of Jesus Christ in us, we too must make sure...
