You Are A Theologian!

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Jun 16, 2020

We often think of theologians as those with high-sounding degrees but in reality we are all theologians in a very general sense. Two questions arise; are we Biblical theologians and are we GOOD Biblical theologians???

And to answer that requires a two step process. The English word “theologian” comes from two Greek words with an ...read more

If It's Going To Be, It's Up To Me.

Contributed by Pastor/Author: Terry Sisney on Jul 30, 2018

My life took a giant leap forward when I got the revelation of personal responsibility. Noah didn't expect God to build his ark. God is the master planner, but he has left the building up to us.

Joshua 24:15 And if it seem evil to you to serve the Lord, choose this day whom you will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.

"ordinary People For An Extraordinary Calling" Series

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Dec 31, 2020

Jesus rarely calls the famous, the powerful, the influential, or the religious groups to preach the Gospel. He works best with those who feel that that have nothing to offer Him but follow and obey Him anyway.

The message of Jesus has not changed in over two thousand years. He still tells those with ears to hear to repent and believe in the Gospel. In His early ministry, He preached in His hometown synagogue and nearly got Himself killed as a result (Luke 4:16-30). Wherever Jesus went, He either ...read more

God Can See What Man Is Doing

Contributed by Travis L. Billings on Aug 5, 2019

God shows Ezekiel the abominations that are taking place. These abominations are still taking place today in the church. Even though man may not know it, or think God does not see what is taking place, God knows and can see everything that is taking place.

Ezekiel 8 Remember, it was Ezekiel’s unenviable task to remind the people of their sins and their transgressions against the Holy and Mighty God. During a time where the people believed they were doing ‘just fine,’ Ezekiel had to call out their sins in a way that would almost seem like a burden ...read more
