Our Inheritance In Jesus Alone Series

Contributed by Dr. Bradford Reaves on Feb 24, 2022

What Paul is wanting the church in Ephesus to know - and for us to know as well - is that we have a wonderful and glorious identity in Christ. Unfortunately, there are many believers today that do not understand or live into their God-given birthright as adopted children of God.

The Restoration Of Sight And The Reception Of Salvation

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 9, 2022

In John 9, we read of the healing and salvation of a poor, blind man who has received not only physical sight, but also spiritual sight to see that Jesus was the Promised One of God. We also witness the deliberate spiritual lack of sight by the religious leaders who rejected the Light of God.

John Newton (1725-1807) was one of the most blasphemous, vile, unscrupulous, cruel, and hateful men who ever made his living by means of the sea. While he had been reared in a goldy home and had been taught the Scriptures by his mother, he walked away from any type of religious faith and for ...read more

"Peter, Feed My Sheep” (1of 21)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 11, 2022

Peter goes down in the history books for a number of things:

(1) He is known for his impulsiveness. It is always a good policy that, before we do something, we stop and think about what we are preparing to do. Why? Because the decisions we make come with consequences. But Peter is the kind of fellow that did things, and generally suffered the ...read more

"Peter, Feed My Sheep” (2 Of 21)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 11, 2022

Jesus told Peter, "Feed my sheep." Every housewife can relate somewhat to this, as she feeds her family. Also most housewives know the value of a well balanced diet.

For example, they know they can feed their families peanut butter sandwiches every now and then, but if they did this all the time: • The family would soon dread coming to the table to eat • They would also suffer nutritionally, because this kind of a diet is not going to supply them the nutrition ...read more

Prepare For Revival Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on Feb 5, 2022

Revival affects our relationship to God, but also to one another. Peter talks about how as our salvation affects us it should give us a love for the unlovely. Jesus goes so far as to say, by this will all men know that you are my disciples that you love one another.

To get a fire started you need some paper, dry kindling wood and a flame. Once you get the flame started you must take care to make sure the flame gets air. You may blow into the flame to get the fire to ignite. You also protect the small flame from too much wind that could blow it out. But once it ...read more
