Digging Up Sin Is A Difficult Thing

Contributed by Joel Pankow on Mar 7, 2019

Achan's sin is exposed after Israel is routed at Ai. What does it teach us? How do we respond to his destruction?

The Book Of Joshua 6 Of 9

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 26, 2022

When we get into chapter 7, the wonderful victory of defeating Jericho had to be fresh in the minds of the people of God.

WHAT A VICTORY! But now there were many more cities that needed to be defeated, such as the city of Ai which was next on the agenda. We do not know a great deal about Ai. • The reason we do not know a great deal about this town is because of its insignificance • We know that it was located east ...read more

The Road To Recovery Series

Contributed by C. Philip Green on Dec 28, 2018

If you want to recover from failure, then start your road to recovery when you cry before the Lord. But don’t just cry, consecrate yourself to the Lord. Then continue your journey when you confess your own sin. But don’t just confess it, clean the sin out!

The Empty Promises Of Idolatry Series

Contributed by Matt Black on Oct 22, 2019

We were created to have pleasure in God, but we seek pleasure in a thousand other places. As we consider Gomer (Hosea's wife) in the book of Hosea who was an adulterer, let’s consider how God can deliver all of us out of our idols and the things that take the place of God in our lives.

What is idolatry? Webster’s Dictionary defines it as: 1. The worship of idols, images, or anything made by hands, or which is not God. And 2. an immoderate attachment or devotion to something in the place of God. D. L. Moody put it this way: “Whatever you love more than God is your idol. Rich and ...read more

What's Buried Under Your Tent?

Contributed by Michael Otterstatter on Jul 24, 2017

Like Achan we may think our sin will not be uncovered--even by God. But we need to remember that nothing can be hidden from God and the guilt of our sins still stands. This account leads us to confess our sins and turn in faith to Christ forgiveness!

Soon after they fell into sin Adam and Eve tried to hide their guilt behind coverings made of fig leaves. Later because of their sin they also vainly attempted to hide themselves from God. Adam and Eve’s son Cain thought he could hide the guilt of shedding his brother’s innocent blood by claiming ...read more

Sermon #5 in my study of Joshua. This sermon focuses on how sin isn’t often taken seriously by anyone except God.

Introduction: 1. When it comes to great dreams and depending on God to fulfill those dreams it is certainly true.
