I Have Something To Say

BRO. RICHARD BROUGHT A SERMON TITLED "I HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY" AS HIS LAST SERMON AS THE PASTOR OF CALVARY. RECOUNTING A TIME WHEN PAUL PRESENTED WHAT VERY WELL COULD HAVE BEEN HIS LAST WORDS IN ACTS 26, BRO. RICHARD PRESENTED HIS PARTING WORDS WITH THE CHURCH. BRO. RICHARD WANTS NOT ONLY CALVARY BUT EVERY PERSON UNDER THE SOUND OF HIS VOICE TO KNOW THAT JESUS LOVES YOU, FORGIENESS CAN BE FOUND IN JESUS, AND THAT YOU CAN BE SAVED TODAY BY THE GRACE OF GOD

WE KNOW THAT OUR FATHER'S PLANS ARE NOT AS OUR OWN, BUT WE ALSO KNOW THAT HIS PLANS ARE MUCH GREATER THAN ANY PLANS WE COULD MAKE. WE WISH THE BEST AND PRAY FOR BRO. RICHARD AND MRS. ANGIE AS THEY PREPARE TO SERVE THE LORD AT ANOTHER CHURCH!

Manifested Faith

THIS MORNING, BRO. RICHARD BROUGHT A MESSAGE TITLED "MANIFESTED FAITH." IN HEBREWS 11, THE AUTHOR RECOUNTS VARIOUS INDIVIDUALS THAT WERE USED TO ACCOMPLISH GREAT THINGS FOR GOD BECAUSE THEY HAD FAITH. THESE ARE JUST SOME OF THE EXAMPLES WE SEE IN SCRIPTURE THAT SHOW US HOW OUR FAITH CAN BE MANIFESTED INTO ACTION.

He's Always On Time

GOD IS ALWAYS ON TIME. HOWEVER, IT'S HARD FOR US TO ACCEPT THAT SOMETIMES, AND WE OFTEN DON'T UNDERSTAND HIS TIMING. WE SO OFTEN ARE CONCERNED WITH OUT PERSONAL PLANS AND TIMELINES THAT WE DON'T SEE HOW THE LORD'S TIMING IS ALWAYS RIGHT AND PERFECT.

October 2, 2022

Reasons I Know That I Am Saved

BRO. LARRY CLEMENTS JOINED US AGAIN TO DELIVER A MESSAGE ABOUT HOPE.

Life Affliction

BRO. MICAH CARTER JOINED US IN CELEBRATING CALVARY'S 80TH HOMECOMING. BRO. MICAH BROUGHT US A MESSAGE FROM GOD ABOUT AFFLICTION IN OUR LIVES. THE PLASMIST PRAISED THE LORD FOR THE AFFLICTIONS IN HIS LIFE. SOMETIMES WE VIEW THE ISSUES IN OUR LIVES AS SOMETHING THAT OUR FATHER IS DOING TO US INSTEAD SOMETHING HE IS DOING FOR US. WE SHOULD DELIGHT IN THE MATURING OF OUR CHARACTER THROUGH THE TRIALS GOD SETS BEFORE US.

Shields Of Brass

REHOBOAM DID NOT FOLLOW GOD AS HIS FATHER SOLOMON DID. IN RESULT, SHISHAK TOOK THE SHIELDS OF GOLD THAT SOLOMON HAD MADE WHEN HE WAS KING. REHOBOAM HAD SHIELDS OF BRASS MADE TO REPLICATE THE LOST SHIELDS OF GOLD. TOO MANY TIMES WE ARE OFFERING GOD LESS THAN BEST. WE ARE GIVING HIM INFERIOR SERVICE INSTEAD OF OUR BEST SERVICE TO HIM.

Faith Promise Conference

TO END AUGUST'S THEME OF STEWARDSHIP, BRO. ALLEN HAGOOD BRINGS A SERMON ON THE CONCEPT OF "FAITH PROMISE." THIS IDEA IS NOT A NEW IDEA, AND IT IS BASED IN SCRIPTURE. USING A PASSAGE OF PAUL'S WRITINGS IN 2 CORINTHIANS, BRO. ALLEN SHOWS US THAT FAITH PROMISE IS GRACE GIVING AND NOT OF OUR OWN POWER. WHEN WE COMMIT TO GIVING TO FAITH PROMISE, WE ARE ALLOWING GOD TO GIVE THROUGH US WHAT HE WILL NOT GIVE TO US.

Understanding The Tithe

IN THE THIRD INSTALLMENT OF HIS SERIES ON STERWARDSHIP, BRO. RICHARDS TALKS ABOUT THE CONCEPT OF TITHING.

ALLEN HAGOOD WILL WRAP UP THE SERIES NEXT SUNDAY AS HE SPEAKS ON THE CONCEPT OF FAITH PROMISE GIVING.

bE gLAD

THE SCRIPTURE TELLS US TO SERVE THE LORD WITH GLADNESS. THERE IS A JOY WE SHOULD HAVE AS CHRISTIANS THAT DISPLAYS THROUGHOUT OUR LIVES AS WE GO ON LIFE'S JOURNEY. EVEN ON OUR WORST DAYS, WE CAN STILL BE GLAD BECAUSE OF WHAT CHRIST HAS GIVEN US THROUGH HIS BLOOD!

Walking Away From Jesus

Without mercy, we wouldn't have grace. Every morning we see, step we take, or breath we breathe should remind us of the mercy that the Lord has shown us. Sometimes we need to cry out to God to mercy.

The Ministry Of Truth

As children of God, we know where to find absolute Truth. We should never rely on the world or its people as our source of truth. Despite what any person, business, or government may say, we know that Word of God is true, and we must be brave and diligent in seeking it.

The Perfectly Imperfect Mother

On this Mother's Day, Bro. Richard gives a sermon that diverges from what you might expect from a Mother's Day sermon. He focuses on the fact that the vast majority of mothers are not perfect, and he gave examples of women from the Bible that were highly favored in God's eyes yet were not what we would call "perfect."

Our Living Hope

On This Easter Sunday, our choir sang a Cantata called "Calvary's Love Story". Then Bro. Richard delivered a sermon titled "Our living Hope" in which he spoke on how the hope we have in Christ Jesus is alive just as Jesus is alive himself. If we have accepted the free gift of salvation, we have a living hope!

Lessons From The Darkest Night

Sometimes the things that God wants us to do are hard. If we look at the night before Christ was crucified, we can see that even Jesus didn't want to endure the pain and agony he was soon to experience, but he wanted to fulfill the will of the Father more. We should use Jesus as an example and learn some lessons from the darkest night.

Stressed But Blessed

At His Feet

Sometimes we get so distracted by the work of the Lord that we forget the Lord of the work. As Christians, serving God is top priority, but we can't let the busyness of life and service to keep us from being open to God's presence and growing closer to Him. We must remain at His feet.

The Importance Of The Blood

The Blood of the Lamb Jesus Christ is the thing that reconciles us to God. Without the Blood, we have no chance for true peace. We may live our lives thinking that we are serving the Lord, but if we have not accept the free gift of salvation that was made possible through the blood of Christ, we are serving in vain.

No Escape

As sinners, there is no escape from Hell if we neglect Salvation. The only way to avoid eternal separation from God is to place our trust and faith in Jesus Christ and receive the salvation that He paid for on the cross at Calvary.

Does He know you?

Walking Towards Revival

This sermon was the precursor to our two night revival services we had starting this evening service. Bro. Richard talks about the difference between having a revival service and having a revival in our hearts. The preacher may come and give a great sermon, but if we aren't open to and ready for revival in our hearts, then a revival won't happen.
