Gathering With God’s People Series

Contributed by Claude Alexander on Feb 16, 2022

The Son Of Man

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Feb 21, 2022

The beautiful title "Son of Man" is important to the believer. This message looks at how this title establishes Jesus’ messiahship, how it establishes Jesus’ humanity, and how it establishes mankind’s victory over sin and death.

There Is One Path To Glory (John 12:12-26) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Feb 23, 2022

And it's through the cross, not the crowds.

Contributed by Ron Freeman, Evangelist on Dec 17, 2021

To establish that Paul’s preaching of Christ unto the Philippian jailer and his house in Philippi was the continuation of his preaching, of the Great Commission and the Holy Spirit’s revelation of the “pattern of conversion,” designed to save all believers by God’s grace through the faith in Christ.

Jochebed And Other Women

Contributed by Dennis King on Dec 18, 2021

Which woman of the Old Testament Bible had three famous children? One of whom was Yekutiel? As a hint, she was the first woman in the Bible whose name is compounded with the name of Jehovah God. We didn't actually learn her godly name right away. She was just called a Levite woman.

The lady we will study first is Jochebed, a mother who was incredibly confident, creative, and courageous! Her son was, in my opinion, the major character in the Old Testament. Therefore, Jochebed may deserve more recognition than she has been previously given. Our information of her is quite ...read more

Prevailing Faith Series

Contributed by C. Philip Green on Dec 29, 2021

To survive and thrive in a world hell-bent for destruction, face it with faith. Face it with a faith that works and waits. Trust God enough to obey Him and keep on obeying Him until your faith is rewarded with sight.

Recognizing The Great Apostasy

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Jan 6, 2022

The Bible tells us to stay strong in our faith and to always meet together as a church. But when we look around, it seems that more and more people are leaving the church. Why? This passage of Scripture explains the reason.

In Hebrews 10:23-25, we read, “Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful. And let us consider one another in order to stir up love and good works, not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one ...read more

The Greatest Prophet Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 15, 2021

The Prophets say such high and lofty things, for they are speaking for God. Jesus, however, did not speak for God, but as God. He was the very voice of God, and when people heard His Word, they were hearing God speak, and not just His spokesman.

F. F. Bruce in his commentary on Hebrews concludes (Jesus) "is the prophet through whom God has spoken His final word; He is the priest who has accomplished a perfect work of cleansing for his people's sin; He is the King who sits enthroned in the place of chief honor alongside the ...read more
