    Trust And Obey For There Is No Other Way

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Oct 23, 2025
     | 106 views

    Many churches often sing that familiar song TRUST AND OBEY routinely. Today I want to do more than sing about it, I WILL BE PREACHING ON TRUST AND OBEY.

    This text verse of scripture talks about TRUST AND OBEY. Do you realize how much trust is a part of our life each day? • Every time we flip a light switch, we trust that the light will come on • Every time we place the key in the ignition of our car and turn it, we expect the car to ...read more

    Anxiety seems to be a problem today for both the saved and the unsaved. While we can understand it might be a problem with the unsaved, we have a difficult time understanding why it is a problem with the saved.

    WHY IS ANXIETY SUCH A PROBLEM TODAY? Someone printed these words under a tranquil scene on a calendar: "Today is the tomorrow we worried about yesterday." We do spend a lot of time worrying about tomorrow. So many in our society insist on trying to carry the… • Burdens of the ...read more

    What Kind Of Sermons Did Paul Preach

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Oct 18, 2025
     | 150 views

    Introduction: As I read my Bible, I guess I am like most folks. HOW IS THAT? For example, I often read my Bible and try and imagine what it would be like to be there when Peter, Timothy, John and Paul preached. Especially Paul

    Paul's legacy as a preacher of the Gospel is evident in the numerous churches he established and the epistles he wrote, which continue to be foundational texts for Christian doctrine and practice today. His unwavering commitment to spreading the message of Christ to both Jews and Gentiles ...read more

    Let’s Not Make A Deal!!!

    based on 1 rating
     | 313 views

    The very popular television program, “Let’s Make A Deal” debuted in December 1963. The program was all about MAKING A DEAL!

    I guess all of us have watched this program and enjoyed it, as some of the guests of the show made good deals and some made bad deals. While none of us have appeared on this show and played “Let’s Make A Deal,” the fact is, Satan wants to play this game with us every day. For example, the ...read more

    Today I want to talk to you about church planting, because all churches are NOT GOD PLANTED! HOW DOES GOD PLANT A CHURCH?

    CHURCH PLANTING is something like what a farmer does; he plants the seed, cultivates the seed, fertilizes the seed and then patiently waits for it to grow. ion: Church planters basically do the same thing. They have to plant the seed (Gospel), cultivate the seed, fertilize the seed and ...read more

    Good Eyesight Spiritually

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Oct 10, 2025
     | 158 views

    In this passage of scripture, the Lord used the image of eyes to convey an important spiritual principle that we need to consider. We all would agree that eyesight is something that is very important to all of us in this PHYSICAL WORLD, but it is EQUALLY IMPORTAN IN THE SPIRITUAL WORLD.

    Illus: Because our eyesight is so crucial to us, He created the eye so it can be protected. For example: • God placed our eyes lower than our forehead so our eyes can be protected by our forehead. • God gave us eyebrows for the purpose to help keep moisture, such as sweat and rain, out of ...read more

     | 189 views

    The Bible in several locations mentions we are IN CHRIST as believers. • Galatians 3:26 • I Peter 5:14 • Romans 8:1 • Colossians 3:3

    What does this mean we are IN CHRIST? Because we cannot stand in these sinful mortal bodies before a holy God of heaven, He has to clothe us in the sinless body of Christ. • In II Cor. 5:21 when we accept His sacrifice on our behalf, that is we give Him our filthy righteous and He gives us His ...read more

     | 249 views

    Have you ever been hit on the head and had someone take you to the emergency room and a doctor examined you?

    He held up some fingers and asked you, “How many fingers do you see?” If he holds up four fingers and you see four of them, then he says you are OK. But if he holds up two and you see four of them, you have a problem. In Mark 8, this is similar to what happened. Look at verses 22-25, we read, ...read more

     | 359 views

    When we think of the betrayals of Christ, we normally think of Judas.

    I have heard people say when I get to heaven I want to see Peter, Paul or Samson… But you will never hear anyone say when I get to heaven I want to see JUDAS Iscariot….why? Because he is not there. Judas is referred to by the Word of God as “The SON OF PERDITION”. Only two people are referred ...read more

    There are some who claim they do not believe in a Devil.

    Illus: For those who will say such a thing someone said: • “When you meet the devil, you know you are not going his way. • If you never meet him, you must be going in the same direction.” The reason some do not believe in the devil is because they are going the same way he is going, but the ...read more
