Contributed by Ron Freeman, Evangelist on Jul 2, 2020

The Courtroom Of Heaven Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 1, 2021

Satan is no amateur accuser. He knows that if you can bring the best man to a fall, you don't have to worry about lesser men. Satan goes right to the top. God is so proud of Job that he flaunts him before Satan.

Pagan Piety Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 9, 2021

We see here an example of how God can use evil to bring forth good. Jonah disobeyed and did the opposite of God's will, and yet there was no loss, for by his act of evil he was led providentially to bring the knowledge of the true God to these men.

Total depravity is not the concept that man is as bad as he can be, for we all know that there are many degrees of evil among the lost, and this holds true even among the saved. Some redeemed people are less sinful than others, and some lost people are less sinful than others. Total depravity, ...read more

The King Has Come - Palm Sunday

Contributed by Tim Melton on Mar 15, 2021

The Jews longed for freedom from the Romans. They desired too little. They were too easily satisfied. They wanted freedom in the present from sinful men when the King had come who would forgive their sin and grant them eternity. The true King had come.

Have you ever been in a situation where you really needed some help? A situation just got out of hand. It was too difficult, too painful, you were trapped and there was nothing you could do about it.

Seizing The Day ( 2012)

Contributed by John Williams Iii on Nov 4, 2022

So how do we honestly number our days (Psalm 90:12)? Consider Ephesians 5:15-16: "Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise men but as wise, making the most of the time, because the days are evil" (RSV).

Ephesians 5: 15. Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise men but as wise, 16. making the most of the time, because the days are evil. 17.

Three Crosses On A Hill: A Study In Evangelism

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Nov 6, 2022

When we preach about the sacrifice of Jesus Christ for our sins upon the cross, we forget that there were also two men crucified on crosses next to Him. Each man had the opportunity to look to Jesus for grace and mercy. Their response determined their eternal destiny.

The agony of the crucifixion and the final hours of Jesus are recorded in all four gospels, each written with their own unique perspective of what happened that dark day (Matthew 27; Mark 15; Luke 23; John 19). Each one tells of the jeering, mockery, contempt, and seething hatred towards the ...read more

I Am A Survivor "When The Smoke Clears"

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Apr 10, 2020

Our God is all powerful and can do anything but He chooses to work through men. Every protective barrier has failed; Kings, prophets, priest, governors, pastors and judges are fearfull, yet God is searching for an intercesor to stand in the gap and make up the hedge.

The name Ezekiel means God strengthens or God empowers. This young prophet of God had experienced some difficult times. He along with Daniel, the Hebrews boys and many others had been carried captive into Babylon. They lost their identity, their heritage and their dignity. It is one thing to be in ...read more

Jesus Proves He Is The Resurrection And The Life

Contributed by John Lowe on Feb 27, 2018

One of the proofs that He is God was that He raised men from the dead. Actually, this was a miracle done for our sake, to show what takes place when Jesus touches a person who is dead spiritually because of sin. When we are saved, we are raised from. . .

Respect And Obey God’s Delegated Authority (How Christian Ought To Behave Continue)

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Feb 22, 2022

What does obedience to God’s delegated authority look like? How can we be a good example for the world to see? How can we live peaceable with all men especially those in authority? Paul devotes an entire chapter to the subject of respect for authority.

Sermon – Respect and Obey God’s Delegated Authority (How Christian ought to Behave) Romans 13: 1-10, “Everyone must submit to governing authorities. For all authority comes from God, and those in positions of authority have been placed there by God. 2 So anyone who rebels against authority is ...read more

Becoming A Christian Philosopher

Contributed by Don Campbell on May 15, 2023

The word “philosophy” means a love of wisdom. Paul said, "Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ” (Col 2:8). There must be two kinds of philosophers.

Giving & Reward - Matthew 6:2 Series

Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on Aug 27, 2024

Why does Jesus tell us to give, fast, and pray in secret, when earlier in the sermon he had commanded that we do our acts of righteousness before men to be seen by them? This message will give you a new way of looking at the commands to live for reward.

2 Corinthians 9:6-11 Remember this: Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously. 7 Each man should give what he has decided in his heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. 8 And God is able to make ...read more

One Nation Under God!

Contributed by Jeff Taylor on Jun 14, 2023

In July of 1776, our founding fathers & 56 men of faith & courage signed "The Declaration of Independence". On that day, those 56 signers pledged their lives, their fortunes, & their sacred honor to birth the land of the free & the home of the brave.

What was America like in July of 1776?

The Book Of Lamentations – Part 42 – Obtaining Food Could Mean Death; Starvation Caused Oven-Hot Skin; Women Were Raped By Babylon - Lamentations 5:8-11 Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Oct 10, 2025

The survivors of the Babylonian destruction had a terrible time. Even to get food was very risky, and because of starvation, the famine caused the skin to become hot, and earlier on, dry like wood. The army raped the women in all of Judah. We consider that infamy of debased men.

THE BOOK OF LAMENTATIONS – PART 42 – OBTAINING FOOD COULD MEAN DEATH; STARVATION CAUSED OVEN-HOT SKIN; WOMEN WERE RAPED BY BABYLON - Lamentations 5:8-11 Currently we are in the last chapter of the book with all the grievances written in short statements.
