     | 1,880 views

    Paul discusses the role of the Law in conviction and confrontation with the Sin of a person. The law of the Lord which is known as the Law of Moses is not evil, not bad, not tyrant but the person who reads it is a corrupted, sinful man, and he is bad in character and nature.

    Good News Shoes Series

    This part of the spiritual armor is good news for us but very bad news for Satan and his domain.

    Let’s begin today with a review. Paul is in prison chained to a guard 24 hours a day- seven days a week. As he is observing the soldiers uniform, the Holy Spirit begins to speak to him about spiritual armor. He takes note of the belt around the soldier’s waist. He notices that ...read more

    How To Become A Great Servant Of The Lord (Sermon On Christian Service)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 24, 2022
     | 3,047 views

    Every Christian is a servant of the Lord. The things that separate us as servants are those two adjectives, GOOD and BAD.

    But let me preface this sermon by saying that we have some VERY GOOD SERVANTS of the Lord in this church. God knows who they are, and we who watch the fruit they bear also know. God has blessed them in this life, and He will bless them in the life to come. King Hezekiah was probably one of the ...read more

    Fortunetellers, Witchcraft, And Magic

    Contributed by Dennis King on Oct 25, 2021
     | 3,564 views

    The Bible does not differentiate between “good” and “bad” magic. Scripture doesn’t distinguish whether the magic is supposed to be used for good or for bad; it’s forbidden when and if it appears from a source other than God's powers or implementations.

    Over the course of your life, you probably have been exposed to discussions on white or black magic. White magic is often considered and described as “good” magic. This is in contrast to black magic, which is a power or phenomenon evoked by evil spirits. Some people believe both variants exist. ...read more

    One of the most mesmerizing, puzzling, and unpopular passages in the Bible is, no doubt, the story of Job. Job was a moral, wealthy, and godly man.

    A wise old man once said, "A lot of good luck is undeserved but then so is a lot bad luck..." The younger of the "two sons" wished he hadn’t had his run of bad luck. Let’s examine the Portrait Of A Prodigal together!

    Introduction No other picture in the Word of God speaks louder than the example Jesus’ gives us about the love and mercy of God as seen in the Portrait of a Prodigal. We all have had our own share of rebellion. Yet, God in His infinite wisdom and love waits for us all to return. Nowhere is this ...read more

    Using Thomas as an example of resurrected faith overcoming blinding doubt

    I know we all have heard about Thomas. “Doubting Thomas;” poor ole doubting Thomas. The guy has caught grief for 2000 years and my guess is that he will catch grief for the next 2000 years – or until the Lord returns. To be honest, I feel for the guy. Our tradition has singled him out as having ...read more
