    The Need For Biblical Standards

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Dec 15, 2021
     | 3,249 views

    We live in a society where most of us recognize the need for standards.

    This is one of the problems we hear so much about in our public education. That is, the need for a National Teachers Exam, where all teachers will be tested by a CERTAIN STANDARD, and if they cannot pass the test, they cannot teach. But there is a lot of opposition to this, because the teachers ...read more

    The pivotal truth on which our faith, life and beliefs rest, is the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead! We can rest with assurance, live in hope and work in expectation because Jesus Christ is risen from the dead!

    Ye men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know: 23 Him, being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, ye have taken, and by wicked ...read more

    In the 30th chapter of The Story, we will see the end of the great ministry of Paul. He finished strong!

    INTRODUCTION • SLIDE #1 • As we are closing in on the end of our series, “The Story,” I pray that we are starting to be aware that as we live in the lower story, a story at times filled with chaos, confusion, struggles, sickness, and injustice, there is an UPPER ...read more

    In the first chapter of Ephesians alone we have seen a multitude of blessings which God has said He has already given us. How do we know it's really true? How do we really know God is in earnest?

    what does Jesus have to say about divorce? In our Scripture today, the Pharisees asked Jesus, "Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife for any reason?"

    When Things Don’t Work Out Matthew 19: 1-12 Scott Grant writes about a Time Magazine article where Caitlin Flanagan observes that, while the divorce culture has become a fact of life over the past twenty-five years, the middle class has turned weddings into “overwrought exercises in ...read more

    God created us in His image, and commanded us to be fruitful and multiply. Fruitfulness is a condition to remain in Christ, we can only be fruitful by abiding in Him, and we are expected to be fruitful in every area of our lives to glorify Him.

    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,140 views

    Often our hectic schedules hinder us from spending time with God, and growing in our relationship with Him. This sermon will help us remember the wondrous works of God, and set our priorities straight.

    We live in a day when everyone has such busy schedules that it has become a huge struggle for many to set aside time for things pertaining to God. Many have come to a place in their lives, where God has been forgotten. Many believers don’t even start their day with God in prayer and reading of His ...read more

     | 2,896 views

    The parables of the lost are all about lost sinners returning to the Lord. There is also another message in these parables that give us direct access to God, if you only but look.

    Prayer: My I speak in the name of the father, son and holy ghost, and let the words of my mouth and the meditation of our hearts be acceptable in your sight, Amen, Thanks Martyn.

    Designed For Life

    Contributed by Brian Williams on Jul 29, 2023
     | 1,176 views

    When we better understand who God is, how and why the universe was designed, then we will better understand ourselves, where we came from, our destination, and how and why we were designed.

    Today we are continuing in our apologetics series on: “What do you believe?” We have been looking at the world and universe from a logical or philosophical perspective and about the evidence for the existence of a Creator God. We will be looking at two passages of Scriptures. One in Isaiah and the ...read more

    Man Has Twisted, Contorted, Inverted, And Opposed All God’s Creation – Part 2 - Genesis Chapter 1 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Sep 4, 2023
     | 961 views

    We continue the study in Genesis chapter 1 to see how sinful and deluded man has overturned all that God set in place, inverting and destroying it. We especially look at evolution and God is Light. Man’s inversion of God’s order causes chaos and growing evil.

    MAN HAS TWISTED, CONTORTED, INVERTED, AND OPPOSED ALL GOD’S CREATION – PART 2 GENESIS CHAPTER 1 In Part 1 we looked at how man has taken what belongs to God and cancelled God out of the whole matter. The self-deceived in the world dismiss God and His creation and wallow in their own intelligence ...read more

    The Thessalonians

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on May 26, 2022
     | 2,111 views

    On of the things that hurts the Lord’s work is that sometimes people join the church who are not sincere in their relationship with the Lord.

    These join for wrong reasons. For example, if you ask people what kind of church they are looking for, some answers will be: • “Well, I do not really like that church, but I probably will join the one down the street because it is convenient.” • “I am looking for a church with a good youth ...read more
