    Contributed by Rev. Clarence Eisberg on Oct 27, 2015
     | 6,476 views

    Game of Thrones would well have been the title of I & II Kings in our Bible. Israel's desire to be ruled by a king was tainted by their worldly aspirations and would bring heavy, painful consequences until God’s true King arrived in Bethlehem.

    “The Game of Thrones Begins ” I. Introduction Game of Thrones is the title of the American fantasy drama series created for HBO, now in its 5th season. This series is based on the George R. Martin's series of novels entitled A Song of Ice and Fire, sent in the fictional land of ...read more

    Eccl 5:1 Guard your steps when you go to the house of God. To draw near to listen is better than to offer the sacrifice of fools, for they do not know that they are doing evil. What is the sacrifice of fools?

    THE SACRIFICE OF FOOLS Ecclesiastes 5:1 Christians have nearly abandoned the word "fool," and replaced it with various synonyms. The reason is found in Matthew 5:22, where Jesus says, "...whoever shall say, 'You fool,' shall be guilty enough to go into the hell of ...read more

    There is a cover up going on, but it won't last long. God already is in the know. It is just a matter of time. You need to deal with some issues and you need to do it now.

    Is that Noise behind the Worship? 1 Samuel 15:1-3 1 ¶ Samuel also said unto Saul, The LORD sent me to anoint thee to be king over his people, over Israel: now therefore hearken thou unto the voice of the words of the LORD. 2 Thus saith the LORD of hosts, I remember that which Amalek did to ...read more

    Avoid these pitfalls of disobedience - the temptation to rationalize it, to belittle it, to blame it, to give excuses for it, to please man rather than God.

    Today we are going to touch on one topic that we can all speak with experience – disobedience. • Whether it’s disobedience to parents, to authority, or to God. We know what it is and how difficult it is, sometimes. • To obey is not easy. It takes trust, it takes faith and ...read more

     | 38,039 views

    ALL THROUGH THE BIBLE ... THERE ARE STATEMENTS DESIGNED TO MAKE US AWARE OF POTENTIAL DANGER. One such warning is in Proverbs 14:12: "There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way of death."

    ALL THROUGH THE BIBLE ... THERE ARE STATEMENTS DESIGNED TO MAKE US AWARE OF POTENTIAL DANGER. The Lord reveals to us those things; knowing what is best for us and what can hurt our relationship to Him. We are often informed of wrong choices, and told of the expected consequences. We need to be ...read more

    We look at the fall of King Saul. We see how he rationalized his sins by selective obedience, shifting blame, and subterfuge. Then we study the true nature of obedience and end with an enlightening story.

    The purpose of this passage is to show us that somethings belong to God. They are His. At minimum, 10% of what God gives to us should be returned to Him in thanks and as part of our worship. God doesn't want your leftovers.

    Saul hides behind his religion. Mafia hitmen rationalize, “Yes, I kill people but I’m really good to my mother.” We are incredibly good at self-deception. People hide behind their religion to evade obedience
