    Guarding Against Faith Fakers

    Contributed by Bob Joyce on Nov 27, 2010
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,669 views

    The church has the task to root out those who profess faith in Christ, but in reality they are faking their faith in order to destroy the church

    As we consider the sea of apostasy around us and the effectiveness of faith fakers activity in today's church, it seems as though the church has little hope in stemming the tide. But according to the book of Jude, not only can we stem the tide, we can take positive action to deal directly with ...read more

    One man lost a valuable watch wile working in an icehouse. He searched diligently for it, carefully raking through the sawdust, but did not find it. His fellow workers also looked, but their efforts, too, proved futile. A small boy who heard about the fr

    The Power Of Doubt

    My life will on occasion have an orbit like Mercury that for a time simply defies my best efforts to explain it. Nonetheless as surely as there is order in the universe, there is a heavenly reason for my circumstances utterly consistent with God's Word an

    Matthew 28:16&17 The power of doubt Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had told them to go. When they saw him, they worshiped him; but some doubted. In Albert Einstein's early days, physicists had scratched their heads for some 50 years over the unexplainable ...read more

    The Church In Jerusalem

    Contributed by Bob Soulliere on Feb 6, 2010
     | 2,739 views

    That church was the hottest church in the New Testament...or since. They were the poorest church (Paul took offerings from other churches to support them) and yet they won more souls and offered the greatest threat to Satan. They suffered more and yet had

    Acts 6:7 THE CHURCH IN JERUSALEM 7So the word of God spread. The number of disciples in Jerusalem increased rapidly, and a large number of priests became obedient to the faith. The verse we have just read is an excellent description of the church in Jerusalem. That church was the hottest church ...read more

    The Gift Of Freedom

    Contributed by Bob Joyce on Dec 28, 2010
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,475 views

    If we would keep our freedom, we must hear the Lord God say that you cannot exercise a line-item veto on any of the Ten Commandments.

    In Exodus 20, God's people are free for the first time in four hundred years. They're now free for three weeks, and Moses has done as God commanded. He brought them to Mount Sinai, close to the place where God first spoke to Moses in the burning bush. This is the place where God intended to speak ...read more

    It’s Not Just What We Say

     | 4,992 views

    What we say has the power to destroy or to build up. As Christians we should in every case seek to build up those around us.

    Charles Haddon Spurgeon, the famous British preacher of the nineteenth century, was once invited to preach in London in a public auditorium called the Crystal Palace for a special service. The facility seated almost 24,000 people. A day or two prior to the event, Spurgeon went to the Crystal ...read more

    You shall not murder. You shall not take a life by anger. You shall not take away life by calling contemptuous names. You shall not take away from life by gossiping and slandering people. Not friends, not strangers, not your wife, not your husband, not yo

    When my brother got his driver's license he had saved up enough money to buy a 1954 Bel Air Chevy. Now this was not one of those cars that people considered to be a classic, this was an old clunker. It was a unusual shade of green. It had been restored and Mike bought it for $400.

    The entire ninth chapter of Amos helps us behold our God and live with hope rooted in His promises.

    A young man in a wheel chair, discouraged by his condition, asked his physical therapist, "Do you think I have a future?" The therapist replied, "As a pole-vaulter, no! As a man, yes!" In light of the dire predictions of the prophet Amos, the people of Israel and Judah might have asked, "Do we ...read more

    Espionage In The Church

    Contributed by Bob Joyce on Dec 28, 2010
     | 4,502 views

    Although, because of its vulnerability, the church is constantly under the threat of siege by infiltration, it is not defenseless. It can preserve the faith from corruption and destruction by recognizing and properly dealing with impostors. Those of us wh

    Robert "The Master Spy" Hanssen A high-ranking FBI counterintelligence agent, Hanssen caused more damage to U.S. national security than any other spy in our history.

    The Castle Or The Wall

    As a church, we have certain options. We can spend our time, energy, and resources building the wall…and forfeit the church. Or we can invest our time, energy, and resources building the church and forfeit the wall. Wall or church …which will it be?

    In Robert Frost's Poem "Mending Wall," the poet says, "Something there is that doesn't love a wall." We can identify with that statement, can't we? We detest walls. Walls divide. Walls hide. Walls even kill. Remember the Berlin Wall that split families, a city, and a country? But don't we ...read more

    To protect its integrity the church must take the responsibility of discerning between true and false believers.

    Have you ever held a counterfeit bill? It can have all the appearances of the real thing. Most people are not able to immediately recognize one. However, a trained eye can quickly detect fake currency, because certain telltale flaws betray a bill's lack of genuineness. United States law ...read more

    Things That Make You Say Hmmm…

    Paul spoke of a mystery in Ephesians 3:1-13. That mystery is...the Gentiles would share equally in God's provision for them in the future.

    I’m not a big fan of talk shows. But years ago, there was a talk show host, I think it was Arsenio Hall who had a segment, about things that appeared mysterious. He called that segment, Things That Make You Say Hmmm… This story is one of those stories that make you say, ...read more

    What work the devil cannot do from without, he seeks to do from within through synthetic saints.

    A fellow went shopping for his wife's birthday. He happened to pass by a pawn shop. As he passed by the window, he couldn't believe his eyes. Beautiful name-brand watches were selling for a fraction of their retail cost. With his wife's birthday in his mind's eye, he entered and made his selection. ...read more

    Have you ever heard of preachers referred to as Bible thumpers? I have. I guess some preachers would take offense to that, but you know, it's better to hear a good, solid thump from the Word of God than it is to hear the hollow echo of an empty mind. If you look up the word thump, you might find ...read more

    Jesus reveals the four essential plays He is going to use as He competes in the real super bowl of life.

    By tonight, the endless hoopla, the frenzied advertising and, almost incidentally, the football game itself will be over. Super Bowl Sunday will have come and gone for another year.
