    The Overlooked Question Of Jesus

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Nov 4, 2022
     | 1,039 views

    Belief in God is fading from all parts of society. The idea of faith is all but ignored. Jesus told us it would be this way before He returns. Is your faith in the Lord in the same shape as the world?

    " Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will He find faith on the earth?" (Luke 18:8, NASB). This question should be a clear signal for anyone with "eyes to see" that any idea of some last minute "national revival", which many well-meaning brethren would like ...read more

    The Bible teaches that there is One Perfect God. Now there are effectively there are two core aspects to this belief: 1) There is only One true God ...and... 2) The One True God is Perfect. This is to be our focus for today.

    THINGS MOST SURELY BELIEVED AMONG US We Believe In One Perfect God Text: Luke 1:1 (Isa 44:8 / Isaiah 45:22) INTRODUCTION "Forasmuch as many have taken in hand, - to set forth in order a declaration… of those things which are most surely believed among us."

    The idea that people could rise from the dead is beyond belief. Even Arnold Schwarzenegger said he would NOT come back from the grave. So, why would we believe that we would?

    Howard Stern (who’s not really a nice man) has a popular program on Sirius radio where he interviews politicians and movie stars and so on. About 5 years ago, Arnold Schwarzenegger was a guest on his show and during the interview, Howard Stern asked Schwarzenegger “Tell me, governor, what happens ...read more

     | 2,968 views

    We find help from Colossians 1:15-23. There was a similar situation in Colosse. There were false teaching and beliefs spreading that discounted the nature of Jesus. There were weak testimonies among them. In Colossians 1:15-23 Paul establishes Jesus supreme.

    So you just want to lift up Jesus and let all people be drawn to Him? You probably know that you are going to face lots of challenges. There are so many superstitions that have a hold on people. Then there is the negative testimony of weak Christians. The lies about Jesus are shouted from the ...read more

    In commemoration of the 50th Anniversary of Brown vs. Board of Education: God still sees much to judge in America, and we are laid waste by lingering racism. We must recommit to justice in the nation and in the church.

    When you study the event of David vs Goliath closely you gain some valuable insight: that the real giant that day was not the one big in stature but the one who was completely sold out to God.

    DAVID AND THE DWARF 1 SAMUEL 17: 1-56 INTRODUCTION: The story of David and Goliath is one of the most popular in all the Bible. It is undoubtedly one of the greatest incidents in the life of this Godly man that we have chosen to study. It was a contrast of incredible proportions. Anybody ...read more

    We look at the seeds of faith. Seems today we have faith in everything but God. We trust the elevator? The bank? The batteries? Why not have FAITH IN GOD? The measure of faith vs the gift of faith?

    based on 4 ratings
     | 11,459 views

    We have our Christian beliefs, yes-but that isn’t the same as believing God. Believing God is a personal response that grows out of our Christian faith and is expressed by our increasing trust in Him while waiting on Him and His promises.

    Now it is my firm belief that in the midst of Transition and Uncertainty, the Prophetic Pastor must have a Logos about Theos regarding the Ethos of the Times. He must have a Word about God regarding the Mood of the Times!
