Title: Pornography

Subtitle: Family

Speaker: Matthew Trewhella

Broadcaster: Mercy Seat Christian Church

Event: Current Events

Date: 6/30/2000

Bible: Hebrews 4:14-16

Length: 37 min.

Overview: The Supreme Court case Miller v. California opened the floodgates of filth in 1973. Since then, men have been robbed of their manhood as they have drowned themselves in their sinful desires. The majority of men today wrestle with or in bondage to pornography -and a great host of women also-. Pornography causes men to forget their role and duty. It causes them to compromise with evil in society. It neutralizes them and causes them to be silent and not speak out and defend their families. This sermon exposes the evil of pornography and gives a game plan to rid it from your life. MercySeat.net 36 min.

Broadcaster: Mercy Seat Christian Church

Event: Sunday Service

Date: 6/22/2014

Bible: Acts 19:11-19

Length: 51 min.

Overview: A common allegation on America's universities is that Christians killed millions of witches. The truth is however, that those numbers have long been repudiated. Historians and scholars -non-Christian and Christian alike- estimate the number to be, over a 500 year period - the 1200's to 1700's, about 40-50 thousand put to death. Compare those numbers to the Enlightenment inspired French Revolution -an event birthed in humanism, statism, socialism, feminism, sexual licentiousness - everything at war against Christ- which ended in 50,000 deaths in just two years.----This sermon gives facts and dispels myths regarding witch trials across Europe and here in America. 44 min.
