    If the philosopher strayed too far from that path, he risked following Socrates to an inevitable early death.

    Friday of the Twenty-First Week in Course 2024 Wise Guys “For Jews demand signs and Greeks seek wisdom, but we preach Christ crucified, a stumbling block to Jews and folly to Gentiles, but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God.” In the first ...read more

    Authentic Versus Counterfeit Faith (Part I) Series

    Contributed by Richard Tow on May 20, 2024
     | 1,281 views

    Justification is by faith alone. But we must be sure that the faith we are operating in is the biblical faith Paul is talking about in Romans 4. The authentic faith of Abraham is described in verses 16-22. This description is examined.

    Intro Jesus made an alarming statement in the Sermon on the Mount: “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father in heaven. 22 On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out ...read more

    Preaching Of The Cross

    Contributed by Phillip Smith on May 24, 2024
     | 864 views

    The Apostle Paul said he was not an elegant speaker; he did not desire to use flattering words to draw attention to the cross. It is a shame too many preachers today feel they must use flattery or jokes to attract or keep an audience.

    I have heard many preachers over the span of my life. My father said they began attending church assemblies on Easter just a few days after my birth. Over sixty years have I been in an assembly hearing preaching. Think about the number of years and the many preachers you have heard. You have heard ...read more

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Oct 19, 2023
     | 1,065 views

    The Church’s conflict is with the world system and we struggle in schools, politics, even in churches with humanism and wicked philosophies. The world entices through allurement and lusts. Churches battle these things not to be part of them. We consider compromise and lukewarmness as well.

    THE CHURCH - ITS TURMOIL, CONFLICT, STRUGGLE AND ENDURANCE – PART 2. (PART 10 IN THE SERIES) We continue to look at some of the matters that are of concern for the Church and its problems and its conflict in the world. [4].

    Introduction To Romans 4 Series

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Mar 25, 2024
     | 1,098 views

    Five practical benefits of understanding Romans 4 are shared. The theme of justification by faith is contrasted with justification by works which is characteristic of false religions and cults. The grace teaching in Romans 4 is essential in evangelism and forms the foundation for Christian living.

    Today we resume a study in Romans that we taught in 2019. Five years ago, we expounded Romans 1-3 verse-by-verse with 35 messages. Those are available on our YouTube channel for anyone who wants to review them.i Romans is a book that cannot by properly understood without giving detailed attention ...read more

    The cross is the central fact of the Gospel. But not all people are aware or accept that fact. And this has been true from the beginning. Our text in I Corinthians 1:18-25 describes the message of the cross, and two words stand out: Foolishness and Power.
