    Provoking Thoughts From 1 John (4 Of 16)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 10, 2022
     | 1,607 views

    In 1 John, chapter one, John had the audacity to tell some of those who claimed to be saved that they were liars.

    Evidently John never took a course in “HOW TO WIN FRIENDS AND INFLUENCE PEOPLE”. If he had taken it, he would have had a hard time passing the course. We know this because we see he called those people liars five times. He used “liar(s)” in: • 1 John 1:10. • 1 John 2:4. • 1 John 2:22. • 1 John ...read more

    Haggai Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Mar 22, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,515 views

    The Lord asks, "Is it a time for you to dwell in your paneled houses, while this house (the Temple) lies in ruins?" – Haggai 1:4. This is one of the most piercing questions in all scripture, especially given our wealth in this country.

    Haggai Haggai wrote during one of the most challenging times in Jewish history. His prophecies inspired the people to persevere and stay committed to God during that difficult time. Aside from the fact that he was a prophet, we know little about the man. His name means "festival," perhaps ...read more

    Another parable from Jesus, about “God’s” character, as Jesus enters His temple, corrupted by the selling of livestock and money changers. Notes from Kenneth Bailey's book "Jesus through Middle Eastern Eyes" understanding the parable.

    The first section of Acts 8 describes briefly the persecution against the Church after Stephen's death and the results of Philip's ministry to a city in Samaria. This outline covers some of what he did there.

    Daniel intervenes and tries to understand Nebuchadnezzar's dream.

    Last week we ended our study with King Nebuchadnezzar ordering that all of the wise men of Babylon be destroyed. We also said that Daniel and his three friends were considered to be some of the wise men of Babylon and so the order would have pertained to them. Tonight, we will pick up our study ...read more

    Bad things have happened to people many times over the years. There were some people who spoke to Jesus about a recent event. His reply wasn't something they expected to hear.

    The book of Revelation is God's final warning to the sinner to repent and trust in Jesus Christ for salvation before His wrath and judgment come upon this wicked world. Even in the midst of hell on earth, there will be many who will not repent to their eternal peril. Where do you stand?

    I recently participated in an online study of the book of Revelation with a fellow pastor who is also a dear friend in the LORD. He had been presenting to the viewers some possible scenarios that will appear on the Earth during the time of what Scripture refers to as "the Great ...read more
