    We make drastic mistakes because we do not know the truth. We believe every claptrap that is uttered by people and fall for false prophesies, because we do not know the truth. Read the Bible and live it out.

    Power in the Word! Acts 7:1”Then the high priest said, "Are these things so?" The question ‘are these things so?’ opened up the dam inside Stephen who goes on to give a long narration of events, starting from his forefathers. Stephen was now at the bar before the great council ...read more

    The holy place of Jesus Christ resides not in any building, cathedral, or historical site, the holy place of Jesus Christ resides in your heart.

    Stephen stands before the highest religious court in the land to answer charges of blasphemy against Moses and against God.

    The Sanhedrin’s reaction to the Gospel is pretty typical for those who reject it, but the boldness displayed by Stephen is something WE must learn from!

    Part 4 in a 14-part series of studies I call “The Christian Character” as described by Jesus to a crowd of people on a Galilean hillside. In this part we examine the beatitude, “Blessed are the meek...” and "Blessed are those hunger and thirst for righteousness..."

    Psalms 27, 37, And 84 Series

    Contributed by Sam Mccormick on Mar 7, 2020
     | 8,017 views

    Passages in different locations are often interconnected in such a way that one avenue of thought springs from another. Although these psalms were not written with the intent that they be interconnected by us today, they collectively express a message relevant today.

    For Sermon Central researchers: I have posted a series of 15 sermons on the Psalms. In recent personal studies I have found the psalms to be richer and more thought-provoking than I had fully appreciated. I had too often swept swiftly through psalms without slowing down to inquire as thoroughly as ...read more
