Fear Brings Callousness

Contributed by Wade Martin Hughes, Sr on Nov 16, 2019

We have been studying fear. This lesson exposes a great danger of callousness. Doubt will always bring a hard heart or it will cause us to lose heart. Fear crushes dreams. We gradually build layer upon layer until we hinder our potential.

Noah's Ark: A Symbol Of God's Sovereignty

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jul 2, 2023

The idea for the design and building of the Ark did not originate in the mind of Noah. The Ark was God's idea and preconceived plan of rescue for anyone who would enter to escape the wrath to come. God has everything under control and will bring everything to a conclusion on His terms.

The Bible says that Noah built the Ark, but did not come up with the idea. The Ark was from the mind and heart of God. If God had not spoken to Noah, he would have died in the flood along with his pagan neighbors. Genesis 6:8 says that Noah "found grace in the eyes of the LORD". This ...read more
