Sermons on Doctrine
The Bride of Christ
Pastor Ricley explains the difference between the Bride of Christ and the guests at the wedding feast. People went into Egypt looking for bread, just like people today go into churches looking for Jesus. They will either come out leaning on His arm in depth of relationship or they will stay bound in religion. Scripture: Rev 17:1-6, Rev 18:4-10, Rev 18:20-21, Rev…
Religious Knowledge vs Revelation Knowledge
Pastor Ricley takes us through Scripture to explain the difference between knowledge we gain through religious experience and revelation knowledge that comes from God Himself. Scripture: 1 Cor 2:1-15, John 3:3-11, Luke 18:18, 1 Cor 1:17-31, Jer 31:15, Matt 2:18
Dry Bones
The church has separated bone from bone through denominations and man’s doctrines. The Bible started with creation and a warning – the devil is a deceiver, not just a liar. The truth has become simply someone’s opinion today. The Word of the Lord is life. He will breathe life into us & we’ll live. God will bring people out of religion and…
Sons of God
There are those who believe that the Sons of God are angels. Pastor Ricley does an in-depth Bible Study establishing who the Sons are, their purpose and their relationship with God and the people around them. Scripture: Gen 1:26-2:24, 1 John 3:1-2, Rom 8:19-22
Buying Oil
We get concerned about the end times and the timeline of future events when we should be focusing on our daily relationship with God. Jesus tells us in Matt 25 about the five wise and five foolish virgins. Some went in to Him and some did not. The difference was not in the watching, like some doctrines proclaim. The difference was in possessing the oil. The oil comes…
Kingdom Collision
God sent astrologers with the message that the Messiah had been born because He knew the people wouldn’t receive Jesus. Same spirit that didn’t want Jesus to be King exists in the church today. Jesus as King disrupts the kingdoms of men. If we would listen to the voice of God there would be no division in the church.
Tremble At His Word
The Jews didn’t understand the covenant was about to end because they weren’t close enough to God to hear His voice and because they weren’t interested in giving up their kingdoms for His. The Christian Church is in much the same position today. The covenant is about to end, and most Christians have no understanding of that. We’re preoccupied with big buildings and…
Truth Re the Trinity Doctrine
Pastor Ricley answers the question about what the Bible teaches about the Trinity Doctrine.
Sons of Belial
Sons of Belial were part of the congregation, trusted leaders with a preponderance to move away from the true doctrine of God, and the ability to take others with them. These sons do things according to their flesh, fighting against the authority of God by doing the things of God in their own way, refusing to bow to Kingdom of God. Scripture gives us several examples of…
True Communion (Part 2)
The carnal mind cannot walk in the spiritual things of the Word. The carnal mind wants physical things to hold onto. That’s one of the reasons so many Christians are returning to Jewish rituals. There is comfort in the physical things that are easily understood. Paul told the early Christians, “if you don’t know what to do, follow me, imitate me. Follow me as I follow…
