    Contributed by John Lowe on Apr 3, 2021
     | 5,538 views

    1Not many of you should become teachers, my fellow believers, because you know that we who teach will be judged more strictly. 2We all stumble in many ways. Anyone who is never at fault in what they say is perfect, able to keep their whole body in check. 3When we put bits into the mouths of horses ...read more

    A QUESTION OF PRIORITIES. Matthew 6:24-34. MATTHEW 6:24. We must choose between “God” and “Mammon.” It is all a question of priorities. If we are a slave to the things of this world, then we cannot be an effective servant of the kingdom of God. MATTHEW 6:25. “Take no thought” is an unfortunate ...read more

    THE PARABLE OF THE WEEDS. Matthew 13:24-30.

  • An Inquisitive Woman At The Well Series

    Contributed by Neil Partington on Jul 5, 2007
    based on 8 ratings
     | 13,081 views

    It’s odd that Jesus did not reveal who He was to His closest followers, but instead reveals Himself to a Samaritan woman at a well. Was it b/c He needed to share it with someone? Or was it b/c she believed and He knew her heart?

    From time to time, all of us have felt the sting of rejection We might have been rejected from our friends, our families, our jobs, or maybe even the church Rejections brings with it pain and suffering, the feeling of abandonment and loss And by no means is it a characteristic that we eagerly ...read more

     | 291 views

    We continue the Sower, considering the seed that fell into rocky ground, the shallow soil, with a warning. Temptation plus affliction and persecution will in time burn and kill off any mere profession. These hearers are only temporary. Then we begin the seed choked in the thorny soil.

    To know is to obey.

    “What we don’t know won’t hurt us.” Have we ever heard or said those words? It’s an idiomatic expression used to justify denying or concealing an issue. “If you do not know about a problem or a misdeed, you will not be able to make yourself unhappy by worrying ...read more

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jan 19, 2024
     | 911 views

    The last of the seven churches listed in Revelation 2-3 had the reputation of being the church that made Jesus sick due to its religious indifference. Heed the lesson.

    The downward slide that started in Ephesus with the loss of their “First Love” culminated with the total apostasy found in the last church mentioned in Revelation, Chapters 2 and 3, the church located in the city of Laodecia. The city had been founded in 253 B.C. by Antiochus II and named after ...read more
