     | 4,299 views

    What Does The Bible Say About The Christian’s Relationship With The Government?

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Jan 25, 2021
     | 3,523 views

    What do Paul and Peter have to say about the Christian and government? Is the church allowed to pursue the violent overthrow of secular governments? What should be our focus if it's not the accumulation of earthly power?

    - We are going to dig into a subject this morning that is challenging. We are going to be talking about church and state. It’s one we don’t talk about particularly often. - As we start, I want to acknowledge up front that these passages are difficult. I want to say that I don’t like everything ...read more

    Sinners and the government are not the real problem. We are our own worse enemies refusing to clean ourselves up so sinners will want to be clean.

    Romans 13:1  Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God.  2  Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves ...read more

    Many times it is best to show the GOOD before we show the BAD. At other times, it is best to show the BAD before we show the GOOD.

    Illus: This is exactly what a young lady in college did when she was having problems with her grades and finances. She dreaded having to inform her parents of her situation, so she composed this letter: “Dear Mom and Dad, I just thought I’d drop you a note to let you know of my plans. I've ...read more

    Why are we concerned about our purpose as a church, & what we are trying to do? To answer that, let me tell you of something that happened here about 9 years ago.

    1 Peter talks a lot about Suffering. How should we act and react as Christians on this subject

    1 Peter 2:21-25 Matthew 5:38-48 Psalm 23 Our primary passage today is the one from 1 Peter, and I confess, none of us like what he has to say. I added the Matthew 5 passage, because sometimes it is easier to hear if we know it came directly from Jesus. Both passages are addressing the same ...read more

    Jesus Christ: Our Model Of Suffering

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Apr 20, 2022
     | 2,004 views

    In the eighteenth chapter of John's gospel, we are presented with the beginnings of the sufferings that the Lord Jesus would undergo for the sake of our redemption, paying a debt He did not owe for fallen humanity who could never pay it.

    Several years ago, I came across a televangelist who peddled the ungodly "word-of-faith", or "prosperity" gospel that is poisoning the body of Christ in these last days. One of the "sales pitches" (and that is the only means by which I can define it) these folks ...read more

     | 3,834 views

    No true child of God gets out of life without enduring some kind of pain, adversity, discomfort, or suffering. Each encounter we have with the difficulties of life need to be seen as lessons the Sovereign LORD teaches us to rely less on ourselves and more on His wisdom and grace.

    I've spent much time in thought and silent prayer, organizing in my mind and soul on how this message should be presented. I wanted to be certain that what I was about to say would be based primarily upon the Word of God and not merely a repeat of topics that I have covered in previous ...read more
