    Contributed by David Scudder on Sep 10, 2007
     | 3,581 views

    Modern seminaries may be helpful, but the Lord’s seminary training is much different. Here Paul reviews the training Timothy received--and it is much different than what we often see today.

Aim: I want the listener to accept the challenge to serve Christ without reservation. INTRODUCTION: I am constantly amazed by the difference between the Bible’s formula for success ...read more

    The story of Peter, Peter's mother-in-law and the crown in this passage from Mark describe three different perspectives, but different needs as well. We all have needs and our greatest need is a savior.

    Why Does The Resurrection Matter? Series

    Contributed by David Henderson on Apr 28, 2014
     | 7,198 views

    What is the difference in Buddhism, Islam, Judaism and Christianity? Simple. Of the four major religions today only one claims an empty tomb. The resurrection is the miracle that makes a difference between a religion that is dead and one that is alive.

    Why does the Resurrection matter? John 20:1-20 History records that Abraham who is known as the founder of the Jewish faith. 2000 years before the birth of Christ. His body remains in that tomb. History also records that in the year 483 BC that Buddha who about 80 at the time died from eating ...read more

    The New Testament records Jesus healing seven different blind men. And in each case He employed a different method. God is a God of variety. He seldom saves two people the same way.

    INTRODUCTION You might recognize the title from the television series, “Friday Night Lights.” When I moved from Alabama twenty-four years ago I thought High School football was big there, but I soon learned that, like everything else, High School football is HUGE in Texas.

    The apostle Paul employed a farming illustration to explain how our heavenly bodies will be different and so much better than our earthly bodies. Consider the difference between the seed that is planted and the plant that results.

    A. Today, I want to start with the story of a young boy who came home from worship and Sunday school with a question for his mom: “Is it true we come from dust and after we die, we return to dust?” 1. His mother said, “That’s right, son. Does that concern you?” 2. The boy hesitated, but then ...read more

    The Destructive Nature Of Man’s Human Spirit

    Contributed by Gordon Brownlee on Apr 14, 2025
     | 380 views

    The Old and New Covenants meet with God in different ways. But few have asked whether these differences create spiritual powers that work against the Christian life. This maybe why Paul struggled with a Church in transition.

    The Destructive Nature of Man’s Human Spirit Life sets before us an interesting journey of discovery. Within that journey we record what our eyes perceive as beauty, what our hearts cherish as food for the soul and what our spirit learns of eternity. Hence every endeavor in life relies upon body, ...read more
