    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 4, 2022
     | 1,001 views

    Every good pastor is concerned about the PHYSICAL and the SPIRITUAL welfare of his people.

    Generally, one of the ways you can tell a LIBERAL CHURCH from a CONSERVATIVE CHURCH is THE APPROACH they take in caring for people. Liberal churches often are only concerned about the PHYSICAL needs of the people. For example: Illus: They will send missionaries abroad to: -Teach lost people ...read more

    TONIGHT I want to talk to you about the overwhelming preciousness of knowing Christ. The Christian life isn’t just about being good or following the rules – it’s about knowing Him personally.

    THE OVERWHELMING PRECIOUSNESS OF KNOWING CHRIST KEY TEXT: “Yes, furthermore, I count everything as loss compared to the possession of the priceless privilege (the overwhelming preciousness, the surpassing worth, and supreme advantage) of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord and of progressively becoming ...read more

    Everyone wants fulfillment. Some try being good, but that only brings smugness. Some try religion, as Luther did, but that brings only busy-ness. Life and peace are found in the Spirit of God as our companion.

    When I look deep down and ask myself what I really want out of life, one answer keeps coming back over and over: I want meaning. I want significance. I want fulfillment. When I look deep down and ask myself what I really want for my life, I know that the accumulation of things is not it. These ...read more

    If we believe Jesus is the only way of salvation, If we believe salvation is the free gift given to all who place their faith and trust in Jesus. Then part of being a dynamic disciple involves sharing the truth of who Jesus is with others.

    Do you try to avoid conflict? Most of us will not enjoy conflict in our lives. We simply want to avoid uncomfortable situations. Often, it is within uncomfortable situations that we find our deepest levels of faith. Christians are often unprepared when it comes time to share their faith with ...read more

    Jesus calls Himself the good shepherd and the word ‘good’ describes someone who is more than just competent but it refers to the character of the person.

    Jesus, the good shepherd John 10: 7-21 There was a church where a man fell asleep every Sunday morning just as the Pastor began preaching his message. And every week the Pastor noticed him and it really started to bother him more and more as the time went on. He ...read more

    Human beings have tried to answer the reason 'why' God seemingly allows bad things to happen

    Thanks to Adam and Eve, human life is full of struggles, sorrow, tragedy, and toil. It is tough to reconcile them with a God who is love, saves by His grace, and sustains with His mercy. Good and bad things happen to good and bad people - that is for sure. Human beings have tried to answer the ...read more

    based on 7 ratings
     | 6,192 views

    Some of us are being eaten alive by termites. We have come up with ways to allow the enemy to stop the things that God has spoken into our lives. We have failed to recognize that we are the good fruit from the good tree.

    I Am The Good Tree Scripture Reference: Matthew 7:17 – 20 (KJV) Matthew 7:17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth corrupt fruit. 18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. 19 Every tree that ...read more

    God asks a series of rhetorical questions designed to get the people facing the sad fact that despite being called by God they were no better than the nations around them. In fact, because they refused to bear proper fruit they were worthless to God.

    VERSES 1-5: Israel as a Vine Ezekiel was not the first prophet to refer to Israel as a vine. We see this in the song of the vineyard that is found in Isaiah 5. Also, as we study this chapter, it would be good to remember Jesus offered a reference of Himself as the true vine and the need for us ...read more

    What Makes A Good Father?

     | 28,290 views

    Being a good father is more than just bringing home a paycheck and meeting the physical needs of your children. It’s not enough just be a good father by the world’s standards; fathers need to be the spiritual leaders in their homes.

    What Makes a Good Father Proverbs 17:6 When asked what is a good father? One replier said, “A good father is one who provides and is always there when the child needs him.” 1 Timothy 5:8 tells us “… if anyone does not provide for his own, and especially for those of his ...read more
