Why You Can Trust Scripture

Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Feb 21, 2020

Peter reminds us that we can trust scripture because: 1) It was written by eyewitnesses in risk of their lives. 2) It reflects God’s single message through a variety of human writers. And 3) It will change your life as you read it.

Those Who Beheld The Glory Of Christ

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Dec 20, 2021

In John's prologue, he presents the Lord Jesus Christ as God the Creator who came into the world to be among us and is due all majesty, glory, and splendor.

In the previous verses of John's prologue, he has presented the Lord Jesus Christ as the One who was in the beginning with God and Who is God, the source of life and the light for all to see yet was rejected by His own people. Those who followed Him, though few, received the right to be ...read more

A Cunningly Devised Fable? Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Feb 5, 2022

Easter: This message examines a common argument against the resurrection and looks at some simple proofs. We will come to realize that the resurrection did indeed happen, and that it is far from being a cunningly devised fable.

I wish to begin our message with a quote. Virginia, minister once stated, “We have closed our minds to such trivial considerations as the question of the resurrection of Christ. If you fundamentalists wish to believe that nonsense, we have no objections, but we have more important things to ...read more

Preaching The Unadulterated Word Of God

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Dec 14, 2021

As we were growing up, many of our parents tried to warn us about dangers that we faced, but we could not see them until later in life.

As the children of God, we used to wonder what the Word of God was warning us about in Matthew 24:22-23. We read, “And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is ...read more

Shield Of Certainty

Contributed by Efren V. Narido on Apr 9, 2018

"In the realm of reality, we need also a “shield” for our protection against doubts, uncertainties, negativism, or even false teachings that bombard us in all angles."

During the first half of the Great Tribulation, God sends two ambassadors from heaven to preach the Gospel to the people in Jerusalem. Their ministry is to call the people to repentance before it is too late.

Preach The Word -- Which One? 1 Of 2

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 7, 2022

Paul’s exhortation to Timothy was, “Preach the Word...” This same exhortation is given to pastors today.

However, if they are going to preach the Word of God today, they have to make a judgment as to which one of the many Bibles available is actually God’s Word. If all the translations, versions, revisions, and paraphrases taught the same thing, there would be no controversy, BUT THEY DO NOT! ...read more
