    God’s testimonies of prominent people in the Scriptures.

    "The Testimonies of God" Text: Genesis 18:17-19 Intro: I believe to have one’s name mentioned in the Bible is extraordinary.

    To often, we only look at this passage of Scripture as an illustration of God’s judgement on sin. When we look a little closer, we find an example of one of the greatest missionary hearts ever found in the Bible!

    INTRODUCTION: To often, we only look at this passage of Scripture as an illustration of God’s judgement on sin. When we look a little closer, we find an example of one of the greatest missionary hearts ever found in the Bible! Abraham cared about people that no one else would have cared for. He ...read more

    Three privileges of being a friend of God.

    “The Privileges of Friendship with God” Genesis 18:1-33 To say that Abraham was God’s friend meant that he was a human being to whom the God of the universe felt close, whom he regarded highly, and with whom He wanted to share some of His intimate thoughts.

    based on 55 ratings
     | 12,931 views

    God extends mercy before judgment becomes the only option. It is only after the church turns away and the world rejects mercy that God judges. Sodom reveals the picture of God’s deep mercy.

    God’s Mercy Revealed in Sodom Genesis 18: 17 And the LORD said, "Shall I hide from Abraham what I am doing, ... 20 And the LORD said, "Because the outcry against Sodom and Gomorrah is great, and because their sin is very grave, 21 "I will go down now and see whether they have done altogether ...read more

    Does one bad apple really spoil the bunch? Can one good apple redeem the bad bunch?

    There is in our culture an ancient yet conventional piece of wisdom. It is so ancient that it was part of the teachings of ancient Israel, but it is so conventional, that it was taught to all of us by our grade school and Sunday school teachers. Our 3rd grade teacher probably put it to us as ...read more

    What would you do if God came to dinner? Abraham gives his best to the Lord and receives fellowship, promise, and plans for the future in return.

    Two things are accomplished in this chapter - a visit from God Himself for two reasons: blessings and judgment. God is reminding Abraham - and especially Sarah - of the promised son, and to engage Abraham in a discussion about judging sin. It teaches about God’s character and intercession. Verse ...read more

    A sermon on intercessory prayer based on Abraham’s pleas to save Sodom.

    The “If” of Intercession Gen. 18:16-33 INTRO.: The little conjunction “if” appears 1784 times in the New International Version of the Bible. In the NT, 653 times.

    (1) In prayer, we are engaging an active God who respond. (2) In prayer, do not limit the way God respond to you; and (3) in prayer, God converse with you as His friend.

    [I’ve take most thoughts in this sermon from John White’s book People in Prayer.] Last week we look at one of God’s promise when a person prays: • Heb 11:6 “...anyone who comes to Him must believe that He exists and that He rewards those who earnestly seek Him.” • God gives us a promise, that if ...read more

    A meditation on Biblical themes joined by the word laughter.

    I had a terrible thing happen a few weeks ago when I was taking a service in a wee church (that shall remain nameless) in the country. I had got to that stage in the service where I was leading people in the prayers of confession and as I was just about to finish a particularly sombre bit about ...read more
