    Excelling In Goodness And Mercy Series

    Contributed by Jack Perkins, D.min., Ladc, Csac, Cclc on Aug 19, 2021
     | 2,497 views

    A major part of learning how to do something is learning the "do nots." To illustrate: One of my first lessons related to learning how to be a locomotive engineer involved learning certain things that I must not do—such as going to sleep.

    For over 2000 years, people have claimed that both the Old and New Testaments are plagued with numerous contradictions. Dr. Bart D. Ehrman, The King of Contradiction is discussed.

    Christianity continues to grow and thrive throughout the world and remains the largest of all religions on Earth. The life of Jesus is the fundamental event of Scripture and is told from different perspectives. The central theme of the Bible is that God has provided redemption and forgiveness ...read more

    Many things will come against us in life. Will we employee the equipment against it that Jesus has given us?

    Calming the perfect storm Part 1 Opening: 1. I am indebted to Bill Johnson, a pastor in Redding, California for some of these thoughts as well as getting me to change my message last evening. 2.

    I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel (Luke 7:9).

    AMAZING FAITH OF A CENTURION. Luke 7:1-10. It is interesting to note that, in this busy little cameo, two of the main characters remain offstage throughout. In Luke’s record, the incident takes place immediately after the Sermon on the Plain (Luke 6:17-49). Jesus had said all He was going to say ...read more

     | 13,876 views

    Don’t listen to the voice of rebellion. Instead, listen to the Father’s voice of rebuke, the Son’s voice of resolve, and the Spirit’s voice of reason: Jesus is King. Worship, honor, and trust Him.

    S. I. McMillen, in his book None of These Diseases, tells a story of a young woman who wanted to go to college, but her heart sank when she read the question on the application blank that asked, “Are you a leader?” Being both honest and conscientious, she wrote, “No,” and ...read more

    Any ability or talent or appearance or power or fame we receive is entirely derivative-an expression of His goodness imputed to us for a short while. Satan wanted worship for himself. Saints seek to bring worship to their God.

    And around the throne, twenty four thrones, and on the thrones twenty four elders sitting, clothed in white garments, and on their heads, golden crowns (of victory) And out of the throne came lightnings and voices and thunders, and seven fiery lamps burning before the throne, which are the seven ...read more

    Luke 18:35-43 (New International Version) A Blind Beggar Receives His Sight 35 As Jesus approached Jericho, a blind man was sitting by the roadside begging. 36When he heard the crowd going by, he asked what was happening. 37 They told him, "Jesus of Nazareth is passing by." 38 He called out, ...read more

    The Wonderful Words Of Our Lord Jesus Christ Series

    Contributed by Rick Crandall on Dec 19, 2019
     | 4,544 views

    We must receive the words of Jesus Christ... 1. Because they are God's way to measure our lives (vs. 47-48). 2. Because they are God's message to us (vs. 49). 3. Because they are God's method of salvation (vs. 49-50).

     | 2,321 views

    Beloved Saints, the attacks on our faith are designed to conform us into the image of God’s Son, making us to become humble servants because they teach us to learn how to apply the truth of God’s word in greater ways to our situations, therefore God's love is without question toward his people.

    Joseph, Mary and Jesus give us a model of the family all of ours should strive to become.

    Feast of the Holy Family 2022 If there is anything we can be certain of when we consider the past fifty or sixty years, it is that there has been a massive cultural, media and even governmental assault on the natural family.

    When God says it, that settles it.

    During the summer between my first and second year at Moody Bible Institute, I had the privilege of teaching at a Bible College in Zimbabwe, Africa.

    Worthy Is The Lamb! (Revelation 5)

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Feb 8, 2024
     | 1,240 views

    The Lord Jesus Christ has all things and events under His Divine and Sovereign control. He has the final word on how everything will conclude. No amount of evil on the world's part will stop Him from His mission to "make all things new".

    I sometimes think that when we study the book of Revelation, we tend to focus upon the impending judgments of the wicked and the horrendous consequences that follow. While God's wrath is certainly a major theme of the book, we must remember that the book of Revelation is also a book of ...read more

    If we don’t live the Gospel, how will people believe that Christ also lives? People must see that we are real, before they will believe that Jesus is.

    I expect most of you know by now that we have a homegrown preacher next week. Our newest deacon, Drew Johnson, is going to be my sub on December 26 while I’m off basking in sunny Minneapolis. He’s been up here before, of course: many of you remember when he was a shepherd in our Christmas pageant a ...read more

    Instructions For Ministry (Matthew 10:5-42)

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 10, 2025
     | 343 views

    In these verses, Matthew describes the responsibilities given to the apostles by the Lord Jesus. He anointed them with special powers and abilities to show people the power of God but also warned Mark 13;9-13of coming persecution for the cause of the Gospel.

    The Lord Jesus gave the apostles specific responsibilities and gifts to minister to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. His role as the Promised Messiah would be to not deliver the nation from the bondage of Rome, but to free them and all people from a far worse bondage, that of sin and it ...read more
