    My God Shall Supply

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 29, 2022
     | 3,454 views

    The lost world makes it known that they do not want to serve God in various ways.

    They do not want anyone, not even God, telling them how they should live their lives! Something the lost world does not seem to know is this; EVERYONE SERVES A GOD OF SOME SORT! The lost world has many gods that have control of their lives. Remember when Paul came to Mars Hill, in the Book of ...read more

     | 2,331 views

    Today I want to talk about the two most important responsibilities in the church.

    Illus: An unknown person wrote a letter to the editor of the newspaper and complained that it made no sense to go to church every Sunday. The complainer said, "I've gone for 30 years now," he wrote, "and in that time I have heard something like 3,000 sermons. But for the life of ...read more

    The Book Of Mark # 15

     | 1,296 views

    The calling of the twelve disciples is significant. These twelve men were special in that they were chosen to be the twelve disciples that the Lord Jesus Himself was going to teach and train.

    These twelve men had opportunities that no other men who ever lived on this earth have had. Each disciple that Jesus called into the ministry had special skills. Many of them were fishermen, and He took their skill as fishermen and made them “fishers of men.” Let’s look at two things: I. THE ...read more

    This is an age of symbolism. Every major company across America has some kind of logo to represent their business.

    Many of the symbols have become so popular that the moment we see their logo we recognize their company without even having to see the name of the company. We Christians today likewise have a symbol that represents our faith. That symbol is the cross. The moment we see this symbol we ...read more

    In this sermon, I want to complete the preaching on the Fruit of the Spirit.

    The last fruit that we are going to deal with is the fruit of Temperance. When I think of the fruit of Temperance, I think of a thermostat. Illus: You know what a thermostat does! It keeps the temperature in our homes under control. This is what the fruit of Temperance does in our life. It keeps ...read more

    Receiving Treasure In Heaven

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Apr 5, 2022
     | 1,543 views

    Our treasure on earth eclipses our desire for "treasure in heaven." Only God can give us a desire for "treasure in heaven." Therefore, we must forsake our treasure on earth and follow Jesus to receive "treasure in heaven."

    You will notice how this passage begins. We are told that Jesus ‘was setting out on his journey’ (v. 17). And we know where that journey will lead. It will take Jesus to Jerusalem, where a cross awaits Him. He has already foretold His death twice in recent days, and He will speak of it again—in ...read more

    A nationally known preacher told a group of men at a preacher’s conference that HE HAD NEVER BEEN DISCOURAGED A DAY OF HIS LIFE!

    Listen, he lost all credibility with many of the preachers there, because that just sounded like it could not be true. Everyone has to battle some degree of discouragement at some time in life; I MEAN EVERYONE! The Bible tells us that there was none greater born among women than John the Baptist, ...read more

    We all have different ideas about what would be the ideal life, and we all strive to acquire it. We will never have the ideal life until we get to heaven.

    Some say that heaven will not be heaven for some people. Illus: That reminds me of the story one of the fellows in church told me. He told me that Bill, Ron, and Jack all died and went to heaven. When they got there, they discovered the most beautiful golf course they had ever seen. St. Peter ...read more

    It never ceases to amaze me that when people start coming to Sunday School they talk about how much they learn from the Bible.

    Illus: A Sunday school teacher was discussing the Ten Commandments with her five and six year olds. • After explaining the commandment to, "honor thy father and thy mother," she asked "Is there a commandment that teaches us how to treat our brothers and sisters?" • Without ...read more

    • "What are you thinking?" • "Do you love me?" • "Do I look fat?" • "Do you think she is prettier than me?" • "What would you do if I died?" Each of these questions, when answered incorrectly, lead to an argument or divorce. Men must think ...read more

    Now we come to the last of the ten commandments. Perhaps God saved this tenth commandment until last for a special purpose.

    The Lord, in the previous nine commandments, has told us, "Thou shalt not...”. The tenth commandment deals with the thing what will CAUSE US TO VIOLATE ALMOST EVERY ONE OF THE OTHER COMMANDMENTS, THE SIN OF COVETING.
