    How do we define greatness? We often look to the world for this defintion. We look for popularity, power and to other people. We must look at the right source....JESUS!

    “Finding True Greatness” John 3:22-36 There are certain words we use that have a variety of meanings depending on how they are used. For example the word “fast” carries at least 15 different meanings. It can mean ... * the speed of a runner ...fast * to do without food. ...read more

    Studies In Genesis: Chapter 50 Series

    Contributed by Edward Hardee on Oct 18, 2011
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,614 views

    This is a study of the book of Genesis. Genesis and Revelation are two of the most disputed books in the Bible. The premise of this study is the foundation of creation.

    Note: When doing a study on a book in the Bible you use a lot of resources. The major influence for me on this study of Genesis is The Genesis Record by Henry Morris. Title: Death of two great patriarchs Theme: Show the faith of these two great patriarchs. Text: Genesis 49:28-50 Genesis 49 ...read more

    When God allows rain to come in our lives, it is always for a reason, a season, for growth, and to prduce fruit.

    Lord send the Rain - Part 4 Deuteronomy 11:13-17 Another point that we must not ignore is the phrase found in Genesis 1:12, which says, “ whose seed was in itself, after his kind.” When God called the fruit bearing trees forth, one important thing that He did was to put the seed in the tree so ...read more

     | 5,540 views

    Many of the problems we’re experiencing the church in America can be traced back to the fact that we’re only preaching part of the gospel ("believe in Jesus") while ignoring the rest of the basic gospel message laid out by Paul in Romans.

    A Burden On My Heart: In many churches today it’s not so much that we’re preaching a false gospel as that we’re preaching an incomplete gospel. - Quite a while back, God began to point out to me a lot of references throughout the NT to a particular truth (and I’ll get into what that was here in a ...read more

    God carefully listens to our conversations. Do we esteem His name as we shoul? If we do, He will declare us to be His very own special possession.

    The Day God Eavesdropped Malachi 3:13-18 AT THE TIME OF THE WRITING OF MALACHI, the nation of Israel had strayed far from God. Those were dark days indeed. Sin abounded. Unbelief prevailed. The majority of people went their own way, giving little thought to the will of God or the ways of God. ...read more
