    El Roi – The God Who Sees. Abram, Sarai, Hagar, Ishmael

    Contributed by William Akehurst on Apr 29, 2024
     | 1,509 views

    GOD’s Plans are best and in HIS own timing. How many times have we tried to take matters in our own hands, only to find that had we waited on the LORD, HIS plans would have been fulfilled. But "The GOD Who sees" will redirect us when we go off track.

    Jesus Christ: Our Model Of Suffering

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Apr 20, 2022
     | 2,065 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

    Pride Month? Take Back Your Manhood!

    Contributed by Eduardo Quintana on Jun 24, 2023
     | 1,613 views

    “Where are all the real men?” is regular fare for talk shows and new books. You asked them to be women, I want to say. The result is a gender confusion never experienced at such a wide level in the history of the world.”

    The most elemental aspect of our identity is being challenged today. In an effort to confuse humanity and draw us away from a relationship with our Creator, Satan has launched a major assault against the family. The attack comes in the form of unbiblical ideas about the roles of men and women and ...read more

    Called To Suffer Series

    Contributed by Matthew Kratz on May 15, 2021
     | 3,058 views

    Jesus is 1) Believers’ perfect standard for suffering (1 Peter 2:21-23), 2) their perfect substitute in suffering (1 Peter 2:24), and 3) became their perfect shepherd through suffering (1 Peter 2:25).

    1 Peter 2:21-25 [21] For to this you have been called, because Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example, so that you might follow in his steps. [22] He committed no sin, neither was deceit found in his mouth. [23] When he was reviled, he did not revile in return; when he suffered, he ...read more

    Christians cannot stay the way they are, and Peter urges his people to do away with evil things and set their hearts on that which can nourish life.

     | 1,675 views

    Paul really loved the believers at Thessalonica. His concern for their welfare was so great he sent Timothy to them and he earnestly prayed for them day and night. In their suffering he prayed they would stand firm in holiness.

    The Final Hours Of The Lord Jesus -From Golgotha To The Grave (For Now) Series

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jul 19, 2021
     | 2,213 views

    The Lord Jesus is in His last moments of agony and pain, both physically and spiritually as He completes His mission of redemption for fallen humanity. It looked on the surface, however, like a victory for his enemies and the devil as He died and was placed in a borrowed tomb, or so it would seem.

    (Adapted from an outline by Mark A. Copeland) Following a night and morning of torture, ridicule, and mockery, Jesus was taken away to be crucified (Mark 14:53-15:25). For six long, horrendous, cruel hours He hung on the cross, and to add insult to injury, He heard the continuing mockery ...read more

    While We Suffer (Covid And The Christian) Series

     | 6,152 views

    A word we don't like is submission. We certainly don't like it when we feel as if we're being wronged somehow. “Submission” is the key ingredient that enables a Christian to live a good life among the ungodly!

    I’m confident that in the years that follow, there will be plenty of articles and books written about this chapter in world history and in church history. And they will address the question, “what lessons did we learn from all of this?” And I’m confident that much of that will be helpful. Looking ...read more

    How does a church consisting of people who have been freed in Christ deal with slavery?

    Christianity and Slavery 1 Peter 2:18-20 Introduction In the last study, we discussed the obligation to submit to lawful secular authority at all levels from the king on down.

    Endurance Under Stress Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Feb 9, 2022
     | 2,289 views

    Does coming to Christ mean the end of suffering? Sorry, no it does not. To this, suffering, you were called. Christ suffered and left an example of suffering. We have great verses in 21-25 about what Christ’s death on the cross means. Christ suffered for you.

    It was one of those dramatic stories. The town ruffian named Big Joe became a Christian. After all the noses he had broken, black eyes he had given the meanest toughest man in town accepts Christ and becomes a changed man. Now instead of a violent temper he endured patiently, even under stress. ...read more

    Have you been mistreated in any way in the last few weeks? I want to help us focus on the bad deals we have received and see how we can turn those into times we can praise God.

    1. I wonder if you have been treated unfairly in any way this week. a. To a child, did your parents blame you for something your brother or sister did? b. At school, did your teacher get you for something the fellow behind you did? And you tried to explain and made matters worse. c. I am talking ...read more

    Do As I Do

    Perhaps you heard this phrase growing up (and have repeated it to your own kids): 'do as I say, not as I do'. I can swear but if I hear you do it you're in trouble. Contrast that with what we see in the bible and we realize the right thing to be able to say is, 'do as I do'.

    DO AS I DO Perhaps you heard this phrase growing up (and have repeated it to your own kids): 'do as I say, not as I do'. That's our response when we hear, 'but you do it' or, 'but you say it'. I can swear up a storm but if I hear you do it you're in big trouble. ...read more
