  • Laughing Away The Burdens

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Dec 4, 2000
    based on 119 ratings
     | 17,331 views

    Abraham laughed in the cynicism of old age; Sarah laughed in the denial that defends against what is inevitable; but beyond both of them God laughed in joy at the triumph of His purposes, fulfilled in two aged followers.

    You have heard it said, “He who laughs last, laughs best.” Let me expand on that: I may laugh, you may laugh, but God will have the last and best laugh, for God’s purposes will be served. Laughter. There are all sorts of reasons to laugh. Some will laugh out of frustration; unable to do what ...read more

    If we adopt the Abraham/Sarah pattern of abandoning trust in divine promises, and choosing our preferred detours, and if we laugh at the promises of God, we invite catastrophe, and ensure that God will have the last laugh.

    based on 46 ratings
     | 8,531 views

    Abraham is shown to be a spiritual Pilgrim on his journey to the City of God, as seen in his Call to a New Life, his Response by Faith, his Courageous Commitment, his Persistence in Difficulty and in Reaching his Goal.

    Istanbul, formerly the historic Constantinople, was an early centre of Christianity. One of the tourist attractions is the huge building called the Aghia Sophia. The guide summarised its history as a church, then a mosque and now a tourist attraction, like this: 800 years dedicated to Christ; ...read more

  • A Patient Urgency

    Contributed by Steven Simala Grant on Nov 3, 2002
    based on 36 ratings
     | 4,644 views

    God calls us to apprenticeship. Evangelism (the mission) is more important than our own personal spiritual growth; demonstrated through Abraham, Moses, Peter, Paul; and with a focus on 1 cor 9.

    A Patient Urgency Nov. 2/3, 2002 Intro: "Everyone seemed confident that the ship was all right," recalled first-class passenger Henry Sleeper Harper. At last, however, the call came for all passengers to come up on deck wearing their life belts, and soon after midnight, Captain Smith directed crew ...read more

     | 5,367 views

    Because of Sodom and Gomorrah’s’ unrighteousness the Lord didn’t have to share His plan with anyone, but He chooses to allow Abraham His friend to know about His planned destruction for the disobedient!

    This is Warfare! Text: Genesis 18: 22-33 22 Then the men turned away from there and went toward Sodom, but Abraham still stood before the LORD. 23 And Abraham came near and said, “Would You also destroy the righteous with the wicked? 24 Suppose there were fifty righteous within the city; would ...read more

  • The Partial Kingdom 1 - Land Of Hope And Glory Series

    Contributed by Chris Appleby on Oct 22, 2007
     | 4,214 views

    God’s promise seems to have failed, but Moses is called to remind his people that he is God and he will save them and give them the land he promised to Abraham. God can be trusted.

    Can you trust God’s promises? What do you do when nothing seems to come of what you thought God had said he’d do? What if you find yourself in a place that’s the exact opposite of what you were expecting? What if God has promised that he’ll look after you, that he’ll bless you and yet you feel like ...read more

    Contributed by David King on Apr 17, 2008
    based on 6 ratings
     | 11,489 views

    Believers are in a process of "evolution"- what I call the process of transformation from glory to glory. The Lord designs and expects that the Church be dynamic in experience and operations. Abram to Abraham, Jacob to Israel. One of the ways of practica

    JACOB TO ISRAEL: WRESTLING BOUT OF DESTINY PROFILES OF STRIKING BIBLE PRAYERS 1. JABEZ. The Prayer of Jabez seems to have worked at "the snap of the fingers".

  • Be A Peacemaker Series

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on Nov 10, 2007
    based on 5 ratings
     | 8,442 views

    To make peace is not to compromise or avoid confrontation. Abraham set us a good example. We must have the desire to make peace, treasure the relationship, be generous in heart and avoid a self-centred view of things.

    JOHN PIPER says the cry of the beatitudes is this: “Get a new heart!” • They are not good suggestions, but what every Christian ought to be. • The beatitudes counter the false understanding that a person can be saved without being changed. Or: that a person can inherit eternal life even if his ...read more

    How devoted to Christ are you? Christ’s call to discipleship is one of sacrificial devotionThe lives of Mary, Abraham and Paul provide us with examples of what it means to be sacrificially devoted to God.

    Sacrificial Devotion Luke 1:26-38 In Luke 14:33, Christ declared, “Whoever of you does not forsake all that he has cannot be My disciple.” Christ’s call to discipleship is one of sacrificial devotion. Is your commitment to Christ only token or completely total commitment? If ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 17,878 views

    In this section from the story of Abraham, we see that he and Sarah got ahead of God and tried to force God to bring an heir through Hagar. There are a lot of important lessons for us to learn from this episode.

    Introduction: A. One day there was a man who was taking it easy, lying on the grass, looking up at the clouds, and having a conversation with God 1. The man said, “God, how long is a million years to you?” a. God answered, “In my frame of reference, a million years is about a minute.” 2. The man ...read more

    Contributed by John Lowe on Oct 26, 2019
     | 2,714 views

    Next to Abraham, Moses was undoubtedly the man most revered by the Jewish people. To go back to the Law meant to go back to Moses, and the recipients of this letter to the Hebrews were sorely tempted to do just that.

    6/30/19 Tom Lowe Lesson #9 [2C1]: BOTH WERE FAITHFUL (HEBREWS 3:1-2) Introduction: At least some of the first readers of the Book of Hebrews were believers who came to Christ out of a background of Judaism. They were steeped in Old Testament understanding. When they heard the Gospel, they ...read more

  • Authentic Versus Counterfeit Faith (Part I) Series

    Contributed by Richard Tow on May 20, 2024
     | 1,349 views

    Justification is by faith alone. But we must be sure that the faith we are operating in is the biblical faith Paul is talking about in Romans 4. The authentic faith of Abraham is described in verses 16-22. This description is examined.

    Intro Jesus made an alarming statement in the Sermon on the Mount: “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father in heaven. 22 On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out ...read more

  • Big Cross Or Little Crosses, But No Other Path To Joy

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Feb 22, 2024
     | 629 views

    Abraham did not have to show his faith by slaying his only Son, Isaac. God the Father, however, did not hold onto His only Son, Christ Jesus, but accepted His sacrifice.

    Second Sunday in Lent 2024 St. Mark’s Gospel tells us today that “after six days” Jesus and His three lead apostles went up a high mountain. Why is “six days” important to remember? We need to go back to the previous chapter to see. The story line follows St. Matthew’s Gospel very closely, which ...read more
