The Treasure Of Scripture Over The Experience Of People: A Warning

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on May 22, 2021

When the rich man in hell begged for Lazarus to be sent back to warn his family about avoiding his fate, Abraham reminded him that they had the Scriptures. Nothing else has ever been used of the LORD other than His Word to convict the sinner.

No preacher worth his sacred calling should ever water down the power ...read more

Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Dec 6, 2010

Sacrificing a human life is not the point here, as horrific as it is, and as abhorrent to the Lord as it is. I can think of only two or three other valid reasons why God would ask Abraham to sacrifice his only son whom he loved, as a burnt offering, only

Contributed by Ian Hyde on Mar 29, 2020

Evangelical Christianity often struggles with the words of James 2 when he declares things like "faith without works is dead," and "Abraham was justified by works." This sermon reconciles his meaning to that of Paul and demonstrates genuine faith is always expressed in works.
