  • The Model Church

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 24, 2022
     | 2,043 views

    We have folks today who actually seem shocked that God’s church has problems.

    For example, some are shocked that the members of a church act less than perfect. Listen, I am shocked that they are shocked! Anytime you deal with humans, you have to keep in mind that the only perfect person who walked on this earth was the Lord Jesus, and imperfect people crucified Him! We ...read more

  • The Return Of Christ Series

    When a believer dies, others are not to grieve like those who have no hope in Christ. But for believers we are grieving for ourselves and our loss, not for the person that died. This assurance believers have is because of the hope we have in Christ.

    Do we know the exact time of the return of the Lord? Yes, we do! But didn’t Jesus say, “that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven” (Mathew 24:36). Yes, He did say that. Then how do we know the day and hour of the return of Christ? It is when the trumpet sounds. It is just ...read more

    Most young men and women that attend a Bible College are given six weeks to find a church that they will be working with. The colleges call this, “Christians service!”

    • Those who are sincere about doing something for the Lord look for a church that will use them. They realized they are in training for the ministry and they want to be used by the Lord and get all the experience they can get. • Some students that are not sincere are very content to find a church ...read more

    I would like to remind you that Paul is addressing this letter to young Christians.

    The Thessalonian Christians made up a tremendous church but Paul knew that in order that they may stay that way there had to be some things brought to their attention. Such as, THEY HAD TO HAVE RESPECT FOR THE SERVANTS. As mentioned in a previous message, all churches are not able to pay large ...read more

    In his book, “Harvest of Humanity,” John Seamands tells the story of a German soldier that was wounded in training.

    He reported the injury to his officer and he was commanded to go to the local military hospital. When he arrived at the hospital he parked his car and entered the magnificent building. Immediately he saw two doors clearly marked. • The sign on one said, “For the slightly wounded,” and the other ...read more

    The British Railways were looking for a way to test locomotive windshields when they heard about an unusual test cannon that The British Airways had used to test their windshields.

    This cannon fired birds, with great force, into the windshields of passenger jets to insure designs and materials were up to par. They were glad to let the railway borrow their cannon to test the train windshields. Just before the test run, British Railways sent someone out to buy a dead chicken ...read more

    A man had a friend who enlarged his business because his sales had increased to the point that a larger warehouse and sales office were needed.

    Even though the move was a rather complicated and burdensome process, it was really a thing to be celebrated. For this reason, the man sent his friend some flowers on the day of his grand opening. The matter about the flowers, however, was poorly handled and the businessman received a bouquet ...read more

    Since Paul now is switching from the relationship between himself and the Thessalonian Christians to giving instruction on conduct, “walk,” the word “ethics” comes up since this has to do with conduct.

    The word “ethics” is one of the most important words in the English language. Of the ten most IMPORTANT WORDS in the English language, “ethics” should be ranked toward the top of the list! It is a word that every SCHOOL TEACHER should DRILL into the minds of students. It is a word every SUNDAY ...read more

    Vince Lombardi, the football coach, goes down in the history books as one of the all-time greats, if not the greatest, coach ever.

    . Why? Among other things, his team won three consecutive world championships at Green Bay. Anyone who knows anything about professional football knows this is a tremendous achievement. There has to be a reason for a team to make such an outstanding achievement and the reason was because of ...read more

    One of the things adults talk about is how it seems that young people today do not appreciate the many sacrifices many parents have made for them.

    Why is this the case? It could be because they have been given many things without exerting any effort themselves whatsoever. Therefore they can not really appreciate the sacrifices that have been made to make it possible for them to have those things. This explains why they do not think the way ...read more

    Introduction: A minister was making a wooden trellis to support a climbing vine.

    As he was pounding away, he noticed that a little boy was watching him. The youngster did not say a word so the preacher kept on working, thinking the boy would leave. But he did not. Pleased at the thought that his work was being admired, the preacher finally said, “Well son, trying to pick up ...read more

    What was so special about the church at Thessalonica? The people who attended it were TRULY SAVED.

    Someone might ask, “Is that not the case in all churches?” It would be good if it were true, but that is not the case. Some believe the greatest harvest field is within the four walls of their church because although the people may attend church, give to the church and associate mostly with ...read more

    It was about nine o’clock at night. A man dashed into the doctor’s office in a highly nervous state and explained to the doctor he had been in a very bad state all day.

    The doctor, in his best professional manner, asked if anything had happened to shock or upset his nerves. “No,” the man answered, “unless it was a letter I received this morning.” He showed the doctor a letter which stated in part, “If you don’t stop running around with my wife, I am going to ...read more

    “Test everything; hold fast what is good” (1 Thessalonians 5:21, ESV).

    O Lord, our Father in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom comes, Lord let your will be done on earth as it is done in heaven. I was glad when they said unto me, “We will go into the house of the Lord” (Psalm 122:1). Thank you, Lord, for inviting us into your house. Thank you for forgiving our ...read more
