The Authority of the Believer

Victory Concepts #9

November 7, 2021 • Mike

Believers in the Lord Jesus Christ are uniquely created to thrive in otherwise unfavorable circumstances. It is because light cannot be overcome by darkness (Jn. 1:5). So, even though many try to portray Christians as weak defeatists, believers are a powerful force empowered by God that cannot be overcome. The Bible teaches us the gates of hell cannot hold back the forceful advance of the kingdom of God and anything propagated contrary to this truth is an untruth.

Pride: What's the Big Deal?

April 28, 2024 • Susan Livingston

God hates pride because of how subtle and deceitful this relationship, marriage, home, and nation destroying sin is. We have all struggled with this mindset which removes us from God's blessing. Since Jesus came to save us from the enemy's plan to steal, kill, and destroy, we need to turn to God's truth and prayer to have it healed from our lives.

The Unity of the Church

April 21, 2024 • Pastor Mike Stubbs, Lindsay Smith, Sydney Farney • Ecclesiastes 4:9–12

As soon as a body of believers starts making a profound influence in a community, the enemy will come and sow seeds of discord. He knows that he cannot defeat God’s people unless they are unblessed and unempowered by Jesus Christ. This can only happen when they willfully reject wisdom from above and embrace worldly rhetoric and its devises. As the body of Christ, we are always in a winning position of power and influence when we operate in the unity of the Spirit compelled by the love of the Father. This message begins with Lindsay Smith and Sydney Farney giving a report and sharing testimonies about the local Radical Life ministry that strives to build healthy families in the community.

Understanding Christian Character

April 14, 2024 • Pastor Mike Stubbs • 2 Peter 1:3–11

The most important quality of a disciple of Jesus Christ is godly character. That is how real believers are identified and how fake or immature believers are exposed. We are identified by our “fruit” which is the fruit of the Holy Spirit. Even if a person is gifted, the real test is a person’s character, habits, and lifestyle. Godly believers leave a trail of wholeness in the church not collateral damage.
