    Jews And Greeks And Wisdom Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Apr 29, 2018
    based on 1 rating
     | 10,204 views

    Paul had the best Jewish education available at that time; but the plain preaching of a crucified Jesus, was more powerful than all the oratory and philosophy of the heathen world. This is the essential point and substance of the gospel.

    August 5, 2012 First Corinthians By: Tom Lowe Lesson 2.2: Jews and Greeks and Wisdom Scripture 1 Corinthians 1.18-1.25 1 Cor 1:18-25 (KJV) 18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God. 19 For it is written, I will ...read more

    A Christmas Sermon: philosophy, science, and religion can only take us to Jerusalem, it takes special revelation from God's word to find Jesus. Message taken from the Magi's journey.

    Christmas – God’s Special Revelation Matthew 2:1-12 In a Peanut’s cartoon, Charlie Brown goes up to Lucy and says, “Someone said we should live each day as if it were the last day of our lives.” Lucy then runs out screaming, “Aaugh, this is the last day, this is it.

    Life Is Not Fair Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on May 29, 2003
    based on 124 ratings
     | 14,076 views

    Life seems unfair to the disappointed, the cheated, the cynical. It was unfair to compel Simon to carry the cross -- injustice piled on. But God uses injustice to stir His people to action, to help us get beyond mere survival, to give us to one another.

    Life is not fair. It just isn’t. The playwright MacLeish has his character “J.B.” scream out something we are all afraid to say, but it might be true: “If God is God, He is not good; if God is good, He is not God.” What an awesome thing to think, let alone speak! “If God is God, He is not ...read more

    A Sacrifice Should Cost

    Contributed by Boomer Phillips on Feb 5, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,487 views

    Sometimes we feel that life is spinning out of control. In order to receive a spiritual breakthrough we might have to make a sacrifice, and a sacrifice must cost us something; for we can’t cheat the Lord and expect Him to bless us for it.

    Our message this evening is entitled, “A Sacrifice Should Cost.” A “sacrifice” is defined as “an offering made to God . . . as an acknowledgement of His power and provision.” It’s also defined as “surrender or loss made or incurred for gaining some object, or for obliging another.”(1) Based on ...read more

    Can The Foundations Of America Be Restored? Only Through A Revival Of The Young

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Jun 24, 2023
     | 779 views

    Christianity is the underpinning of western civilization, and as we jettison it for entertainment, nihilism, pleasure, and post-modernism, we unsurprisingly see a society tipping into chaos

    In our desperate search for what went wrong with western civilization, digging through layer after layer, social structures breaking down, norms shifting, confusion abounding, unrest spreading, and suicide flourishing, we search and long and cry out, "What has gone wrong!?" We think to ...read more

    The Trinity

    Contributed by John Lowe on Jun 2, 2012
    based on 1 rating
     | 11,454 views

    The doctrine of the Trinity is a distinctive mark of Christianity. Though there are “triads” of divinities in many of the world’s religions and philosophies, none of these carries any similarities to the Christian teaching concerning the Trinity.

    Title: What the Bible Says About the Trinity Scripture Reading: 1 John 5:7 Text: For there are three that bear witness in heaven: the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit; and these three are one (1 John 5:7) The doctrine of the Trinity is a distinctive mark of Christianity.

    Tearing Down Strongholds

    based on 1 rating
     | 3,867 views

    When people form strongholds in their lives, they imprison their thoughts with error, confusion, bitterness, pride, and false philosophies. God's word encourages us to tear down the strongholds in our lives.

    II Corinthians 10:1-6 Introduction: • The word "stronghold" in 2 Corinthians 10:4 means a strong-walled military fort or prison. • When people form strongholds in their lives, they imprison their thoughts with error, confusion, bitterness, pride, and false philosophies.

    The Provision Of God

    Contributed by Ronnie Smith on Jul 15, 2005
    based on 6 ratings
     | 3,112 views

    In the natural, I can’t understand how God can take a thief, drug addict, liar, cheat. What can wash away my sin, nothing but the blood of Jesus….Oh precious is the flow. That picture of the Provision still changes lives today.

    1 Corinthians 15: 1 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; 2By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. 3For I delivered unto you first of ...read more

    Is there an aswer to the cause of suffering? The worlds philosophys either deny the reality of suffering or say it must be dealt with until the release of death. The Christian worldview provides neither denial of evil nor disability in dealing with its

    The Marks Of A Christian - Loyalty

    Contributed by Grant Adams on Jan 2, 2020
     | 4,904 views

    Loyalty is a devotion and faithfulness to a nation, cause, philosophy, country, group, or person. Loyalty is hard to find. Trust is easy to lose. Actions speak louder than words. Quote taken from Quotling.com

    Paul said, “I bear in my body the marks of the Lord Jesus.” He was in prison at this time. Chains were about his ankles, but his soul was free. He was a prisoner of Caesar, but he was a free man in Christ Jesus. Christ was his only master. Picture him there in prison, writing this letter to the ...read more

    Paul's Sermon At Athens: The Right Place At The Right Time

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jun 7, 2021
     | 2,127 views

    Paul's preaching in the synagogues and the markets of Athens drew the attention of the city's philosophers and intellectuals who invited him to speak at the Areopagus. When the Gospel is proclaimed, it has the power to win souls for the glory of God (Hebrews 4:12).

    Paul's mission to carry the Gospel to the nations continued while he was in Athens. Even though persecution had driven him out of one area, the LORD in His Sovereignty placed Paul right where He wanted him, and that was at the intellectual capital of the Roman Empire, the city of Athens. ...read more
