    Jeroboam listened to his own voice and the voices of men, ignoring the voice of God, and led Israel into grievous sin.

    We saw last week King Rehoboam (Solomon’s son) listening to the advice of his peers, motivated by his own desires, caused the split of the Kingdom. • This turn of events fulfilled the Word of God given to Solomon and Jeroboam. • We see the sovereignty of God and the certainty of His Word.

    We don't mind going to the cross as long as we can take a number of comfortable and convenient things along with us. Jesus does not call us to comfort. He calls us to die.

    I would like us to pause today as we look at the life of King Rehoboam and reflect on the decision that faced him, the decision process, and the result of his decision that affected an entire nation.

    We have opportunities to be influencers for God or against him. Rehoboam chose his own way over God's and missed out on being a hero to the people of Israel.

    Message grounds Christians in biblical principles that can guide us during these turbulent times. How did we get to where we are at? What is behind the national shift in leadership and how do we respond to it? What can God's people expect in the days ahead?

    This morning I am compelled to step out of our series on end times and address the crisis we are currently experiencing in America. This week the election results were certified by Congress. That happened in the midst of a chaotic assault on Capitol Hill that was tragic in its results. Where are we ...read more

    Part 2 of the Sermon Series, "God of Elisha."

    One lesson Israel learned from God is that when they honor God, God honors them. God takes care of them. God works with them and for them. Nevertheless, if they dishonor God, God judges them. God deals with Israel in the context of covenant faithfulness. That is what we learn in this story of two ...read more

    What it means when we say God is a “jealous” God. He won’t let us change religion to suit our own passions and political desires. He loves us too much to permit that.

    Saturday of the Fifth Week in Course 2024 Today we hear about the apostasy of the first king of the North of Israel, Jeroboam. Apostasy is the turning aside from true religion to the worship of a different god. The true God, as we know it from Christian revelation, is immaterial, eternal, ...read more
