When Sight Becomes Faith (Exodus 13:17-14:31) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jan 21, 2022

Here at last, the people truly "see" God's hand, and "trust" and "revere" God. Now, anything is possible.

Today, I want to try to respect our story, by treating it in its entirety. We should hear it all at once. And it's important for the story, to start it, not in chapter 14, but at Exodus 13:17. This marks a transition ("and then"), and there's something here that we need to ...read more

Jude Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Apr 26, 2022

The Epistle of Jude is the penultimate [next to last] book of the New Testament and the Christian Bible. It is traditionally attributed to Jude the Apostle, brother of James the Just, and thus possibly the brother of Jesus.

Jude Jude The author of the biblical book of Jude was probably the brother of James (not one of Jesus' twelve disciples). Alternatively, it could be that Jude was just an assumed name.

Eschatology 3 Of 16 Our Glorified Bodies (2 Of 2)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 13, 2022

In the last two sermons, we have been talking about the rapture of the church. I want to remind you again, the rapture is different from the second coming of Christ.

• At the Second Coming, the Lord will literally come to the earth and set up His kingdom on earth for a thousand years. • When the rapture of the church takes place, the Lord will not come back to the earth, but the church will be caught up to meet Him in the air. Look at 1 Thess 4:17 “Then we ...read more

Being To Friendly With The Enemy

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 19, 2022

In the last several years we have heard a lot about “fake news.” “Fake news” is what happens when something is reported to be true that isn’t true.

Fake news is nothing new. That is, we’re not the first generation to grapple with truth vs. lies. Human nature is such that many people find it easier to tell a lie than to tell the truth. If lying was a sport, it would be the most popular sport on earth today. Politicians have the reputation ...read more
