    Make Me A Blessing (2 Of 3)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Aug 15, 2024
     | 1,093 views

    This is the second sermon in this series on MAKE ME A BLESSING. When the apostle Paul writes to young Timothy and us to be a blessing we have to a “Man or Woman God.”

    But he does not leave him guessing what it takes to be a MAN OF GOD. In verse 11 he tells him and us as we saw in last week’s sermon… 1) We must FLEE from sin. 2) And today in this sermon he instructs us there are somethings we must FOLLOW after. Look at 1 Timothy 6:11 But thou, O man of God, ...read more

    Can A Christian Use Marijuana?

    Contributed by Scott Coltrain on Aug 28, 2015
     | 5,867 views

    With the legalization of the recreational use of marijuana, the Christian must evaluate if using pot is an acceptable practice or a sin.

    In those States where the use and sell of Marijuana is illegal, the answer is straightforward. The Christian must abide by the laws of secular government (Romans 13:1-2, 5) which means that the use and sell of Marijuana is clearly prohibited. As our Nation moves closer to the legalization of ...read more

    Ask, Seek, Knock

    Ask and you will receive, seek and you will find, knock and the door will be opened. Does this mean Jesus is our genie in a bottle? Can I ask for anything I want and Jesus will just give it to me? There's much to understand about what Jesus said here.

    ASK, SEEK, KNOCK Matt. 7:7-12 1) Ask, Seek, Knock (7-8). Here we see three different words three different meanings. I think this illustrates a process; like a chain of events if you will. As the Fourfold gospel commentary puts it, “Asking is a simple use of voice, seeking is a motion of the ...read more

    The sermon discusses John the Baptist's role as a witness to Christ's light, emphasizing our similar calling to point others to Jesus, with the advantage of a fuller understanding of His divine nature.

    Hello Church! Today our passage comes from the Gospel of John. Now, there are two different “John’s” we’re going to discuss today. The first one is John the Baptist.
