    Message 4 in an expositional series through Paul's "second" letter to the church in the ancient Greek city of Corinth where he defends his apostleship and corrects serious doctrinal errors within this young church.

    How many of you have been following what’s happening down at Asbury University in KY?

    Finish this sentence for me: “This is going to hurt me… (more than its going to hurt you).” That is a lie that parents have been telling since the beginning of time. I grew up in the age of corporal punishment (i.e. paddling at home and at school). And while I’ll admit to having doled out a few ...read more

    This morning, I want to engage in a little time travel. I want you to think about your fondest memories of attending church. Maybe it was a mission trip. Maybe it was a church experience participating in an exciting expansion project. Maybe it was a church cantata. Maybe it was a church context ...read more

    Where Did The Bible Come From?

    Contributed by John Gaston on May 23, 2025
     | 281 views

    Here we look at how we got the Old and New Testaments of the Bible -- and how the Bible is the most authoritative ancient book in the world, Why? because it's more verifiable and has the closest witnesses of any faith.

    WHERE DID THE BIBLE COME FROM? INTRODUCTION 1. Inspiration means that the Holy Spirit worked in a unique supernatural way so that the written words of Scripture were also the words of God. 2. 2 Tim. 3:16 tells us that scripture was created by the divine “in-breathing” of God into man. It was the ...read more

    The ancient Philistines were in the land of Canaan before Moses, and the Israelites claimed it as their Promised Land from God. The conflict over Canaan territory and religious and cultural differences between Israelites and Philistines led to many battles between the two nations.

    based on 5 ratings
     | 851 views

    Crossing yourself may seem a bit weird to Christians who don't do it- a strange ancient (perhaps slightly superstitious) ritual. But at the heart of it are two great biblical truths - perhaps the two greatest truthes of all.

    Ancient Hebrews used a lunar-solar calendar, easy to observe in the sky as a new moon began a new month. Throughout the calendar year there were ritual observances of locally relevant harvests and commemorations of notable events. How is this relevant for Christians?

    The ancient Hebrew year was observed using a lunar-solar calendar with 12 and 13 months over a 19 year cycle. This was easy to observe in the sky as a new moon began a new month.

     | 7,790 views

    The rise of two ancient world powers, Rome and Babylon, during the Great Tribulation, only to be destroyed by Christ when He comes again, presents us with a choice. We can choose to pursue this world, which is passing away, or Christ, who reigns forever.

    Once upon a time, a really cool young man bought one of the best cars around: a Ferrari GTO. He took it out for a spin and stopped at a red light. An old man on a moped pulled up next to him. The old man looked over at the sleek, shiny car and asked, “What kind of car ya' got there, ...read more

    "The Kind Of Man That Job Was"

    Contributed by Paul Ray on Jul 24, 2013
     | 15,501 views

    So called early Wisdom Literature is rather simplistic as to cause and effect. Whereas Job is a vital stride toward being more realistic, & honest, about life's complications. So, now look at the kind of man Job was, his 'friends' were, and his God is.

    July 28, 2013 “The Kind of Man That Job Was” Job 1:1-22 The book of Job is an important part of the Wisdom Literature found in the Old Testament. It is important because it provides an often ignored premise - concerning the questions about the suffering of the innocent. In ...read more

    Some things people should do for themselves, and some things are too much to bear alone, and we need to help them, and it is wisdom to know the difference.

     | 12,826 views

    Is it possible that an ancient Scripture holds a mystery that reveals America’s future? I believe the answer is “yes.” I believe that the mystery lies behind everything from 9/11, to the War on Terror, to the crash of Wall Street and the global economy,

    We Are God’s Temple

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Oct 5, 2015
     | 5,592 views

    The key to God’s temple is our faith. It keeps us close to God because the Holy Spirit will live in us just like God lived in the temple in ancient Israel. The Holy Spirit assures us that in our relationship with Jesus we can do what he did.

    The passage from 1 Corinthians 3:10-11, 16-23 is a continuation of Paul’s discussion with the church at Corinth, but the focus is now on the necessity of unity among believers. When Paul refers to the body as a temple, he was referring to the Corinthian church as a whole, and as the temple of ...read more
