  • How To Stand When It Is Difficult To Stand (1 Of 2)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Dec 9, 2021
     | 2,200 views

    Something we hear people say today is, “We live in a changing world.” WHAT DO THEY MEAN BY THAT STATEMENT? They mean that life is constantly changing from day to day.

    We have had FIVE major revolutions in this country, that have brought about these drastic changes. (1) THE COMMERCE REVOLUTION When the commerce revolution came into existence, it replaced the agricultural age in this country. During the agricultural age, most people in this country farmed for ...read more

  • How To Stand When It Is Difficult To Stand (2 Of 2)

    Preaching is a fascinating career. When a preacher first starts to preach, he soon begins to think he knows all about preaching. Then, after 5 or 10 years, he discovers how very little he knows about being a minister of the gospel.

    What a tremendous advantage it is to have a veteran minister take him under his wings, and teach him things he needs to know. Illus: Such is the case, when Dr. Odell Belger was starting in the ministry, as a young man in his mid twenties. When he was called to a church, the church had just had a ...read more

  • …the Good Hand Of His God Upon Him

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Dec 9, 2021
     | 3,868 views

    Today in this sermon, we want to turn our attention to a very special man. His name is Ezra. He is one of those fellows you do not hear a great deal about, but yet he was a giant among men in the spiritual world.

    Ezra was a priest, but he was not able to serve in the temple because the temple had been destroyed. This could be why we do not hear a lot about Ezra. He was not a temple priest. Ezra is noted for other things, such as: • He studied the Word of God. In Ezra 7:6, we read that he was, “A ready ...read more

  • Who Is Causing The Trouble?

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Dec 14, 2021
     | 1,585 views

    There are many things a congregation of this size will disagree on, but one thing we all would agree on is that we live in a world that has a lot of trouble.

    What we need to do is find out WHO IS CAUSING ALL THE TROUBLE! For example, we constantly hear about the TROUBLE we are having in our schools in America. Consider the shootings, cursing, fighting, rebellion, and low academic achievements. This may sound simplistic, but anyone with common sense ...read more

  • God Demands Complete Obedience

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Dec 21, 2021
     | 2,277 views

    God has given us different talents because God has different jobs for each of us to do.

    Most of us understand that, but what many do not seem to understand is what God has called them to do and equipped them to do, HE EXPECTS THEM TO DO! Our desire should be as Christ's. He said in John 4:34, "...My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work." ...read more

    This message teaches how meditation benefits our time in God’s Word.

    Spend Time In God’s Word 1. Meditate Often David did both day & night (Psalm 1:1-2) Meditation is thinking about God (Ps. 63:6) Meditate on all God has done (Psalm 143:5) Meditation is searching your heart (Ps. 4:4) Meditation is hiding God’s Word in your heart (Ps. 119:11) 2. ...read more

  • Preach The Word -- Which One? 1 Of 2

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 7, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,716 views

    Paul’s exhortation to Timothy was, “Preach the Word...” This same exhortation is given to pastors today.

    However, if they are going to preach the Word of God today, they have to make a judgment as to which one of the many Bibles available is actually God’s Word. If all the translations, versions, revisions, and paraphrases taught the same thing, there would be no controversy, BUT THEY DO NOT! ...read more

  • Grace From Galatians (4-19)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 7, 2022
     | 1,290 views

    As children, our parents told us things that they felt were best for us, but we often thought we knew more than they did.

    Isn’t it amazing how children, in the short time they have been here on earth, seem to think they are able to accumulate more knowledge than us old timers who have been around 60 or 70 years? But in all fairness, I have met some parents whose children were smarter than they were, and that does not ...read more

  • Grace From Galatians (5-19)

     | 2,147 views

    This far into the book of Galatians, I hope you have developed a fondness for this wonderful book.

    Those who have come from churches that taught legalism all their life have a greater appreciation for the book of Galatians than those who have been taught salvation by grace all their life. • Those who have been raised in the church all their life and came to know the Lord at an a age, do not ...read more

  • Grace From Galatians (6-19)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 7, 2022
     | 1,480 views

    It seems we make excuses and promises about many of the things we do. We do this in many ways, such as, each year we make promises to ourselves.

    We call them New Year’s resolutions. But so often we MAKE THESE PROMISES and then we BREAK THEM! Illus: Did you hear about the man who got tired of making these promises and breaking them? He got so disgusted with himself that he came up with a list of Resolutions he felt he could keep. He said ...read more

  • Grace From Galatians (7 0f 19)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 7, 2022
     | 1,386 views

    The false religions of the world have one thing in common. They all desire to put people under bondage. Why do they want to put people under bondage? This is their way of keeping their members under their control.

    For example to understand that, we have to consider a dictator like Saddam Hussein. Why did he use intimidation, torture and death as a means to control the people of Iraq? The people in Iraq were afraid to say anything bad about him for fear that he would have them killed. Illus: Let me give you ...read more

  • Grace From Galatians (9 Of 19)

    One of the problems in the political arena is that we have politicians that are more loyal to their party than they are to their constituents.

    They are more interested in trying to make us all Republicans or all Democrats than they are in trying to help the people that put them into office. President Bill Clinton seemed to be the exception to this rule, he seemed to have other interests. Illus: The story is told that Hillary Clinton ...read more

  • Grace From Galatians (10 Of 19)

     | 1,349 views

    We are looking at the five different appeals that Paul used in dealing with these Galatians.

    In the first appeal, he dealt with them about three things: • He appealed to their PAST • He appealed to their PRESENT • He appealed to their PREDICAMENT In this second appeal, he appeals to their love for him and how he should be treated by them. • Being a Minister of the Gospel is considered by ...read more

  • Grace From Galatians (11 Of 19)

    Paul knew how much these Galatians held Abraham in high esteem.

    He takes this knowledge that they had of Abraham and uses it as he makes his third of the five appeals to them. Paul had no problem regarding the spiritual roots believers have in Abraham, because God's promises were clearly made to him. But he wanted them to know that having the PROMISED ...read more

  • Grace From Galatians (12 Of 19)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 8, 2022
     | 2,011 views

    This is Paul’s fourth appeal to try to get them to come to their senses.

    As we have seen, Paul does not understand why these backsliding Galatian Christians wanted to return to the bondage of the law. In this appeal, he seems to appeal to their common sense, something that many in this country seem to have lost. Illus: I saw this sad announcement and thought about ...read more
