    1- Acquitting and Condemning. 2- Money and Wisdom.

    INTRO.- More quips, quotes and notes. - The only loafer who makes money these days is a baker. (and I’m not so sure about that, what with the Atkins’ diet that warns against eating bread! How ridiculous!) - Many of our modern girls have plenty of polish – on their fingernails. I Pet. 3:3-4 ...read more

    Jesus expects us to deal ruthlessly with our own sin.

    A Holy Amputee Matthew 5:27-30 I’d like to read the following from a Grand Junction, Colorado News Article from May 2, 2003: With no water and as little hope of survival, Aspen mountaineer Aron Ralston, 27, used a pocketknife to amputate his own arm and free himself from a boulder weighing ...read more

    No more explanations, no more excuses - like the Ninevites, stop, turn around, go the other way.

    Repentance: Does our generation understand what it means? We have been following the prophet Jonah for the past few weeks and we have seen that for many of us, when we read through the book of Jonah we place assumptions on the text, that aren’t really there. For example, a quick reading of chapter ...read more

    The Language Of The Church

     | 3,175 views

    Scripture -- all of it, read copiously over a long time -- shapes our minds and brings us light, far more than the narrow sectarian vocabularies of our cradle faith.

    Psalm 47, Exodus 28:1-4,9-12, 15-21, 29-30, 1 John 5:9-15, John 17:11b-19 The Language of the Church I read a lot of blogs focused on Bible and theology. Something I read this week dovetails nice with our Lord’s words in the gospel lesson appointed for today. There is an online version of a ...read more

    Like Jacob, we are often tempted to think that we know better than God, and to trade His promises in for a simple bowl of red stew.

    Easter

    Contributed by William D. Brown on Nov 8, 2008
    based on 6 ratings
     | 18,415 views

    I want to try and show us today that the word “Easter” has nothing at all to do with the resurrection of Jesus, in fact Easter is another word for the pagan goddess [ASHTEROTH] that we read about in the O.T.

    ACTS. 12:1-4 EASTER 3-22-08 Well as we all know tomorrow is the Sunday that we recognize the “resurrection” of our wonderful Lord and Savoir Jesus Christ, let me say that most people the world over refer to this day as “Easter”. I want ...read more

    We need to stop and remember that our forefathers suffered much for thier faith in Christ, yet they bore the affliction with grace and dignity and through their trials, they made it through to Glory Land. The record they left teaches us much.

    Today, the power gifts remain available as a part of God’s plan for His church, and are increasingly being manifested within the ’Body of Christ’ around the world. They are given to the body of Christ as valuable helps to accomplish works of ministry.

The secret was praying without ceasing, fasting, practicing holiness and being sensitive to heed and obey the Holy ...read more
