    God Is Gracious Series

    Contributed by Alan Perkins on Mar 31, 2001
    based on 80 ratings
     | 27,298 views

    God’s love toward us is unconditional.

    God is gracious. What does that mean? That God has good manners? That He’s courteous? No. "God’s grace is His free and unmerited favor". Let’s examine that. God’s grace is "unmerited". It is undeserved. It is unearned. It is purely a gift. We receive good things from God, not in response to ...read more

    Belshazzar's Feast Series

    Contributed by Owen Bourgaize on Oct 18, 2000
    based on 119 ratings
     | 15,301 views

    Belshazzar’s drunken feasting turned into sacrilege resulting in God’s judgement and Daniel courageously delivered God’s verdict to the doomed king.

    DANIEL 5 - BELSHAZZAR’S FEAST This chapter deals with Belshazzar’s feast and makes a striking contrast with the previous chapter which described Nebuchadnezzar’s conversion. Both kings heard the Word of God - and for them it was a final word - but what a difference in their response. The author ...read more

    A Fountain Will Be Opened Series

    Contributed by Chris Appleby on Oct 18, 2000
    based on 27 ratings
     | 11,300 views

    Here is a prophecy that tells us about God’s plan for salvation for his people, including the suffering and glorification of Jesus Christ who is to come.

    One of the difficulties people have when they first become Christians and begin studying the Bible, is what to do with the Old Testament. In fact some people never quite work that one out. It seems so foreign doesn’t it? It’s full of stories of wars; of God’s favouritism towards the people of ...read more

    The Temptation To Be Perfect Series

    Contributed by Chris Appleby on Oct 18, 2000
     | 4,917 views

    To be perfect as God is perfect, paradoxically, requires us to understand our own weaknesses and failures the way God does, and to love ourselves, despite those weaknesses and failures, the way God does.

    It may sound like a contradiction in terms to have a sermon on the temptation to be perfect. After all aren’t temptations about being imperfect. Doesn’t God want us to be perfect just as he’s perfect? But you know, there is such a thing as the temptation to be perfect. All of us are subject to it ...read more

    1 Corinthians 1:18-31 18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.

    1 Corinthians 1:18-31 18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God. 19 For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent. 20 Where is the wise? ...read more

    The Power Of Shared Suffering

    Contributed by David Simmons on Nov 26, 2000
    based on 114 ratings
     | 6,499 views

    Because Jesus understands our suffering, we do not suffer alone.

    INTRODUCTION If I were writing the Bible, I probably would have left this passage out. After all, we have here not the image of the powerful Messiah that I would like to show off, but the figure of fear and frailty. For centuries we have recognized that Jesus was all God and all man, but here it ...read more

    What kind of praise does God expect from us?

     | 6,268 views

    A look at the Statement the Lord has told you what is good.

    How many people read the newspaper or watch the news on television? You ever wonder about this world? You ever wonder about right and wrong? You ever wonder about what is right?

    That is why a Thanksgiving message like this is so important. We need this reminder. We need it because it forces us to "add it all up" & recognize where all these things we enjoy actually come from.

    MELVIN M. NEWLAND, MINISTER RIDGE CHAPEL, KANSAS, OK (REVISED: 2016) TEXT: Philippians 4:12-13; 1 Corinthians 4:7 ILL. An elderly lady was well-known for her faith, & for her boldness in talking about it. Each morning she would go out on her front porch ...read more
