Against Universalism

Contributed by Davon Huss on Feb 6, 2021

1) What does Bible say about universalism? 2) Because of what Bible says, how is church to conduct herself? (Material adapted from David Faust in his book, "Growing Churches, Growing Leaders", chapter called Children of a Graceful God, pgs. 108-113)

HoHum: David Faust asks, What do you get when you cross a Jehovah’s Witness with a universalist? A knock on the door for no apparent reason. Universalism is a widely accepted philosophy. Universalism says that no matter what everyone will eventually be saved. Today people say things like, “Oh ...read more

A MODEL OF MINISTRY. 1 Corinthians 9:16-23. The Apostle Paul has argued that, as their minister, he had every right to expect a wage from the church in Corinth (1 Corinthians 9:14).

When Rights Are Renounced Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 4, 2021

Church Is Not About My Rights. It's About You. (1 Corinthians 9:1-27) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Mar 12, 2022

Paul modeled a better approach for the Corinthians, at great personal cost. Don't focus on your rights. Focus on the other.

In last week's passage, Paul tried to convince the Corinthians that they needed to stop going to idol temples and eating idol meat there. The Corinthians-- at least some of them-- thought that doing this was okay. They viewed this question as an issue of knowledge, and as an issue of freedom. ...read more

Sermon # 37 - Excuses People Give Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Dec 27, 2024

Jonah has some lame excuses for why he did not want to obey God and preach to the city of Nineveh. There are many others in the bible who gave excuses and the question is “Are we also giving excuses?” or “Are we fulfilling the Great Commission of the Lord Jesus and leading others into His kingdom?”

We read in Jonah 4:2, “And he prayed to the LORD and said, “O LORD, is not this what I said when I was yet in my country? That is why I made haste to flee to Tarshish; for I knew that you are a gracious God and merciful, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love, and relenting from disaster.” ...read more

Paul’s Missionary Dilemma Around Turkey Series
