Cities Of Refuge: A Kindness, To Keep You From Bloodguilt (Deuteronomy 19:1-13) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jan 25, 2022

God set them up, to protect you from bloodguilt. He knew you'd want revenge for accidental deaths, so He protected the innocent, from you. We don't take revenge.

This sermon marks the second Sunday we've talked about the cities of refuge. What I'd like to do this morning, because I love you, is start by messing with your heads a little. Normally, people think of the OT as the "half" of the Bible that's full of wrath and justice, ...read more

Zechariah #16: Superficial Religion Series

Contributed by Richard Tow on Jun 27, 2022

This exposition of Zechariah 7:1-6 explores the issue of the inner motives behind our service to the Lord. How many people go to church, give their money, fast, etc. and are baffled by God's lack of response. Why is there so little power in the church? The text addresses all that.

Intro Our text today is in Zechariah 7. Last week we examined the capstone of the eight visions.i The crowning of Joshua, the High Priest, was a symbolic act prophesying Messiah. Unlike any other, Messiah would be both priest and king. All the promises of God are yea and amen in Him.ii The eight ...read more

Part 1: The Beginning Series

Contributed by Pastor Randall Timblin on Nov 1, 2019

Scientists have been attempting to figure out where and how the universe started ever since Galileo came up with his telescope. Yet, we have discovered nothing.

We have been to the moon and back, we have robots of sorts on Mars and have for years. They have yet to discover any evidence of life...so what have we learned and how much have we spent doing it? Could we not have spent those monies on our homeless and poor? In our scripture, if we look real ...read more

Angels Part 1

Contributed by Jack Graham on Nov 16, 2016

That’s speaking of Christ who was full of joy. The “oil of gladness” means leaping for joy. Jesus was full of life and joy. Never think that Jesus was a pale, sanctimonious recluse. He was a Man among men, the Son of God, the Savior of the world.

This is from a transcript of a sermon preached by Dr. Jack Graham on June 5, 2016 Hebrews, chapter 1, verses 6 through 9: 6) And again, when he brings the firstborn into the world, he says, “Let all God’s angels worship him.” 7) Of the angels he says, “He makes his angels ...read more

Contributed by Dr. Bradford Reaves on Sep 30, 2021
