5 Reasons God Is Good

Contributed by Grant Adams on Jun 24, 2020

I believe with all my heart this morning that Christians have the most to be thankful for! Why, Psalm 48:1 states; “Great is the Lord; and greatly to be praised."

This Thursday, we will recognize a day in our land that most definitely needs to not be forgotten. That day is Thanksgiving. I believe we live in a very ungrateful, self-satisfying world that has forgotten how to be thankful. I am proud to be an American and I am thankful for the price that many a ...read more

Living And Giving That Pleases God

Contributed by Grant Adams on Jul 1, 2020

. It is possible to be sincere about what you are doing, and what you are doing be right, but the way be wrong in the sight of God.

In just about everything we do in life, there is a right way and a wrong way to do it. The other day I was called to bail out a man from jail. My advice to him was, “The principle for which you acted was right, but the way you did it was wrong.” I will be the first to admit I have acted for some ...read more

Knowing And Doing God's Will

Contributed by Grant Adams on Jul 1, 2020

That we may be able to discern what is best. 1 John 2:17; His promise is that whoever does the will of God lives forever. At times, God’s ...read more

Finding The Lord's Will

Contributed by Grant Adams on Jul 6, 2020

The problem that faces every Christian is how to ascertain the will of God

A Christian is one who has renounced his own will and submits to the will of God for his life. 1 Corinthians 6:19-20; this was true of Paul when he said, “Lord, what will thou have me to do?” The same should be true of us. When we are saved, we make as unconditional surrender to God. The problem ...read more

What Is The Gospel?

Contributed by Grant Adams on Jul 24, 2020

Many times, the Gospel, or the word Gospel has been used as a standard of truth.

If a church is a bible preaching you would expect them to preach “the Gospel”. The Gospel is what will save your soul, make you a child of God. There are many things being substituted today for the preaching of the Gospel 1. Drama plays 2. Secular activities You have a God-given right to hear the ...read more

Knowing God

Contributed by Grant Adams on Jul 30, 2020

All of our problems would be solved, if we knew who God is, and who we are.

In years past, I have often made this statement, “all of our problems would be solved, if we knew who God is, and who we are.” Although, I have made the statement many times, and I believe it to be a true biblical principle, I have never taught or preached on this subject, “knowing God.” 1. Is ...read more

Defense Against Discouragement

Contributed by Grant Adams on Apr 22, 2020

The children of Israel have just had a great victory and deliverance from Egypt. They crossed the Red Sea. They are praising the Lord for what He has done.

In the Baptist churches alone, there are over 1,000 preachers a year that leave the ministry, why? There is no way of numbering the Christians that forsake Christ and His church, just simply give up and quit. Why is this going on? I think the main reason is because of discouragement. I think this ...read more

The Disciplined Christian

Contributed by Grant Adams on Apr 22, 2020

Michael Jordan's mindset. It says genetics may determine the starting line, but hard work and discipline determines the finish line.

How To Know You Are Saved

Contributed by Grant Adams on May 3, 2020

One of the birthrights that God gives to each one of his children is the assurance of their Salvation. I can't think of anything more important in the Christian life than knowing beyond a shadow of a doubt that we have eternal life.

Finders Keepers, Losers Weepers

Contributed by Grant Adams on May 9, 2020

Finders keepers, loser’s weepers. From dictionary.com. "A person who finds something can keep it, and the loser has no right to it. This proverb is of dubious ethical merit."

This is one of the most familiar stories in the Bible. Most of us have heard the story from Sunday school. We have sung songs about Zacchaeus. So, what “fresh” lesson can be told concerning these verses. I. Jesus Always does the Finding 1. Most of us have heard and or used the saying, “Finders ...read more

Teaching

Contributed by Grant Adams on May 4, 2022

Charles Barkley many years ago, came out and said, "I am not a role model." The truer statement is I am not a good role model or a bad role model, but we are all role models. The same is with teaching. We are all teachers. Some are good and some not so good.

This morning I would like to continue along the lines of what a Christian is and does. I know we are salt and light, and we do this as we are Christlike. But let's consider one other thought today, that Christians are teachers. I know some of you already tuned me out. You say, “Preacher I'm ...read more

The Tongue

Contributed by Grant Adams on May 4, 2022

When you go to the doctor for a physical examination, often one of the first things they will tell you is to, “Stick out your tongue.” They can often diagnose the illness by looking at the tongue.

What Makes People Worthwhile

Contributed by Grant Adams on May 14, 2022

What causes us to get overwhelmed? Why are so many Christians, especially preachers, throwing in the towel?

Why are there so many inactive preachers? Problems overwhelm them, minister’s life not as glamourous as it seemed to be. Problems became too great, flesh weakened, a large % of our prospects are people who dropped out of church because of some problem that came up in the ...read more
