     | 7,636 views

    What is Peter's goal in writing the Book?

    1. Peter's admonishment 12 Wherefore I will not be negligent to put you always in remembrance of these things, though ye know them, and be established in the present truth. 13 Yea, I think it meet, as long as I am in this tabernacle, to stir you up by putting you in remembrance; 14 knowing that ...read more

  • Not A Cunningly Designed Fable

    Myths are powerful. But should we use them?

    Not a Cunningly Devised Fable 2 Peter 1:16-21 Myths and legends can be powerful teachers of morality. This is why they have been used from time immemorial. They speak of something greater than the story itself. They can be based upon some degree of fact, but this is not necessary for the truth ...read more

  • Preach The Word -- Which One? 1 Of 2

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 7, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,581 views

    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

  • Preach The Word -- Which One? 2 Of 2

    Again, let me say, without apology, that I believe this King James Bible that I hold in my hands is the inspired, inerrant Word of God for English-speaking people.

    I do not believe translators are “inspired.” I do believe the “holy men” that God used, who wrote the original text, were inspired to write those precious truths God breathed through them. • It is hard for me to conceive that God would command a man to PREACH THE WORD, when there was no Word He ...read more

  • "Peter, Feed My Sheep” (16 Of 21)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 11, 2022
     | 1,088 views

    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

    Gideon’s video to begin the message in the second and third worship service.

These businessmen are a part of our church and churches all over the ...read more

  • Bible - Why Bother? #2 Series

    The Scriptures are the inspired, authentic self-revelation of God and as such have primary and foundational authority in all matters of what we believe, what we value, and how we live.

    Last week we focused on the purpose of the Scriptures: what are they for and why should we bother getting ourselves acquainted with them? We learned the Bible is God’s self-revelation that pulls back the curtain for us to know who God is, who we are, the purpose of our lives, and the destiny of the ...read more

  • A Glimpse Of Glory Series

    Contributed by David Owens on Aug 21, 2023
     | 4,042 views

    The transfiguration of Jesus looks backwards to Moses and Elijah, and looks forward to Jesus' passion, ascension and return. The transfiguration is significant for Jesus, His apostles, and all of us.

    Introduction: A. What are the most glorious things you have ever seen? 1. The birth of a baby? A breathtaking sunset? The pounding ocean surf or the shear force of the water going over Niagara Falls? 2. As glorious as those things are, none of those things can even come close to the glorious ...read more

    Suddenly the heavens opened. As His divinity met the glory coming from above, a Holy radiance surrounded Jesus. Rising from the ground, Jesus stood in godlike majesty. His face shone like the sun and His clothes were as a bolt of lightning.

    August 26, 2023 Before we come to our story for today, we need to review 3 important conversations that will set the context for what’s to come.

    Peter wrote to the scattered and persecuted Christians throughout a vast area. Peter is writing as a fellow sufferer. Peter probably wrote this book from Roman imprisonment.

    The sixties were very turbulent times. I was born in 1961, but I am not talking about those sixties. I am talking about AD 61 to AD 70. It is the context, and it sets the stage for what Peter wrote and to whom Peter wrote in his books. Peter wrote his first book 1 Peter in about 63AD and this book ...read more
