    God's Overruling Sovereignty Series

    Contributed by Dennis Davidson on Jan 23, 2012
    based on 37 ratings
     | 27,407 views

    The Bible fully accepts the free agency of man, but interacting with the free will of man is the overruling hand of a sovereign God. Those that love God and follow His purpose are assured that all things are working for their eternal good.

    ROMANS 8: 28 GOD'S OVERRULING SOVEREIGNTY "And we know that all things work together into good for those who are loving God, for those who are being called according to His purpose." IT'S IN THE HOLY WRIT This verse in Holy Writ I see Has very often puzzled me; And many have been led to ...read more

    This morning I want to begin with a story. I want you to imagine yourself being a part of this story, so, place yourself in a small village in Judea.

    Contributed by Wade Martin Hughes, Sr on Dec 5, 2014

    We seem to praise praise and worship worship and forget about a Holy God. This is a study about how JEROBOAM made worship more convenient. He compromised God's truth for popularity and acceptance. BEWARE!

    When God Says No

    Contributed by Brad Stone on Sep 19, 2020
     | 5,469 views

    We never like to accept a "No" answer in our life, especially in prayer, but the fact is that there are times God replies to us with a firm No because He wants to reveal to us a deeper plan.

    When we were children, we never liked hearing the word 'No' when we ask our parents for something. We felt as though our every wish should be granted. If you say otherwise, we can pray later. Frankly, as adults, we feel the same way. We do not like to be told no in regards to ...read more

The father of the young lady organized a contest for his daughter. He sent word to his townsmen inviting all those ...read more

     | 2,151 views

    Many claim to belong to Jesus but yet deny him in their words and actions. Others deny him by refusing to accept him as Lord and their saviour. We will either rejoice or regret our actions at the end of time.

    TEXT: Matthew 10:32-33 “Everyone who acknowledges me publicly here on earth, I will also acknowledge before my Father in heaven. But everyone who denies me here on earth, I will also deny before my Father in heaven." PETER DENIED JESUS Peter, spectacularly denied Jesus three times even after ...read more

    Verdict: Guilty

    Contributed by Grant Adams on Jan 21, 2023
     | 920 views

    We were guilty until Jesus came and paid the price. Now we can free. How? Realizing we are sinners, believe that Jesus died for our sins and accept him as our Savior.

    The salvation of a soul from sin is a work of great proportion. It is a work of God o behalf of man. Nothing greater has ever been done for you and me. The writer of the book of Hebrews speaks of this work, which is all of God, as “so great salvation.” Before anyone can have a clear concept of this ...read more

    When we accept Jesus as our Lord and Savior, we have the capacity to love in the very same way God loves. But so many Christians don't understand what it means to love like God loves.

    John 3:16 is a verse we learn very, very early in life, even before we accept Jesus as our Lord and Savior. My Mom and Dad, and I’m sure your Mom and Dad too, repeated this verse to us as children. “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him ...read more
