Sermons on Burnt:

What Kind Of Offering Are You Giving?

Contributed by Wade Martin Hughes, Sr on Nov 22, 2014

Many seem to think excuses are a good offering. We study the types of offerings in the Old Testament. Tithes, Burnt, Grain, Thanksgiving, Peace, Guilt, etc. G You can give and not love, but you can never love without giving.

God Knows When You’re Done

Contributed by Gregory Thomas on Jan 31, 2011

Instead of Epraim depending on God for stability He formed alliances with the people instead of him being a shepherd he became as sheep. The "cake not turned" was burnt on one side and raw on the other. A metaphor for just how mixed up their lives were.

God Knows When You’re Done Hosea 7:8 The idea is of a “half-baked” cake. In that day, bread was often prepared as a cake that was cooked on both sides, something like a pancake. In thinking they can serve both the Lord and idols, Israel is like an unturned pancake - burned on one side, uncooked ...read more

Nutgrass Of The Soul

Contributed by Cynthia Hinson on Jul 6, 2002

Tough, arrogant and persistent, sin (like nutgrass) will (in Malachi’s words) be burnt to stubble to make way for the Kingdom. Don’t be childish -- our faith is not a game. The prophets have warned us -- and now, someone greater than a prophet is here.

Nutgrass of the Soul Matthew 11:2-30 Rev. Cynthia T. Hinson – St. Paul United Methodist Church – Conroe, TX – July 7, 2002 The very last book of the Old Testament is Malachi, and the last verses of the last chapter of that book read thus: 1 "For behold, the day comes, burning like an oven, when ...read more

Part 2 - Genesis 22:1-11 - Lord, What Were You Thinking? Series

Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Dec 6, 2010

Sacrificing a human life is not the point here, as horrific as it is, and as abhorrent to the Lord as it is. I can think of only two or three other valid reasons why God would ask Abraham to sacrifice his only son whom he loved, as a burnt offering, only

Part 2 - Genesis 22:1-11 - LORD, WHAT WERE YOU THINKING? There’s plenty of evidence of blatant disregard for human life today. Terrorism and suicide bombers? Capital punishment? Human trafficking.

Am I Ready To Do What God Called Me To Do? Series

Contributed by Andrew Chan on Mar 10, 2009

Spring Offerings (Numbers 28)

Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Dec 5, 2024

How do the Spring festivals picture the Christian life? Let's look at Numbers 28.

As Israel was about to enter the promised land, did God remind them of their feasts and related offerings? Did they picture the total sacrifice of Jesus? Is our love for God and neighbor total, like a burnt offering? Let’s look at Numbers 28. Were morning and evening offerings to be made daily? ...read more
