The Praise Of Ezra Series

Contributed by Norman Bernad on Aug 5, 2021

Ezra was a direct descendant of Aaron the chief priest (7:1–5), thus he was a priest and scribe in his own right. His zeal for God and God’s Law spurred Ezra to lead a group of Jews back to Israel during King Artaxerxes’s reign over the Persian Empire

Teachings Of Titus #6

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 24, 2022

Pastors enjoy preaching about what it is like living our lives with God.

The Bible is filled with sermon material that we can draw from as we preach on this wonderful Christian life that God has blessed us with. But also the Bible gives us some passages that tell us what our life was like before we accepted the Lord Jesus as our personal Savior. Such is the case in ...read more

Teachings Of Titus #5

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 24, 2022

We Christians recognize that we can do very little about the leadership in our government. If we could, we would have done something a long time ago.

Someone once said in humor, “We have the best politicians that money can buy!” But what is sad about this humor, is that many times when it comes to our public officials it is the truth. Sometimes I wish we could do to our politicians what a company did to a farmer. Illus: An elderly farmer ...read more

Teachings Of Titus #3

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 24, 2022

In the previous sermon in this series, in Titus 1:10-16, Paul dealt with the false teachers, and told Titus that their mouths must be stopped.

Why? Because he said the words they were preaching were damnable words that were “Subverting whole households” to go astray. One of the sad things about those who fall into false religions is that they aggressively do everything they can to convert their complete families. This is typical of the ...read more

Teachings Of Titus #2

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 24, 2022

I would like to remind you again that Timothy and Titus were two young ministers that Paul personally led to the Lord and trained for the ministry.

One of the needs of the church today, is for young ministers to recognize the need to work with a seasoned pastor and learn as much from him as they can. Illus: Just because a young person graduates from college and has a college diploma in his hands, the business world does not hire them as a ...read more

Preaching From Philippians (1 Of 8)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 31, 2022

In Paul’s writings, his greetings varied from church to church. He made the greetings fit the church he was addressing and the things he wanted to talk about.

For example, when he wrote to the Corinthians he stated that he was an Apostle in his greetings. Look at 1 Cor. 1:1 “Paul, called to be an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Sosthenes our brother.” He did not mention that he was an Apostle in his address to the Philippians! He ...read more

Love

Contributed by Lou Nicholes on May 27, 2005

Gomer broke Hosea’s heart but because if it she made it possible for him to give the world a picture of the “divine lover.” He promised His love in the repeated “I will” statements to the Jewish people.

THOUGHTS ABOUT THE PASSAGE: One night I had a dream. I was walking along the beach with the Lord, and across the sky flashed scenes of my life. In each scene, I noticed two sets of footprints in the sand. One was mine and one was the Lord’s. When the last scene of my life appeared before me, I ...read more

The Outward Focused Life: Understanding Grace

Contributed by Dave Workman on Apr 26, 2011

The story of Hosea is an incredible picture of grace foreshadowing the most grace-empowered act of the universe.

Unfaithfulness Series

Contributed by Alan Mccann on Sep 5, 2007

Hosea speaks of Gomer’s unfaithfulness as a reflection of the spiritual adultery of the people of God

Hosea 2.2-13 Unfaithfulness – Fresh Start? ‘Hello’ magazine I believe is a very popular magazine with some women.

A Love Story Series

Contributed by Jerald Scott on Nov 19, 2024

Lesson drawn from Hosea about the depth of love we can know

A Love Story Christmas is a love story. John frames it that way. “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life."
