    Illus. In Texas last week, an 18 year old man was arrested for wearing a noose in public. As Jewelry. Seems kind of morbid doesn’t it? A noose is an instrument of an agonizing death. It represents vigilante law, I would never be proud to wear a noose. What about an electric chair? Did you ...read more

    In this season of change, the Lord is doing His job. The question is, are we doing our job as the Lord commands? "Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ and has given us the ministry of reconciliation" (2 Cor. 5:18, NKJV).

    Our Father in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come, Lord let Your will be done on earth as it is done in heaven. Lord, You said, "Do nothing from rivalry and conceit" (Philippians 2:3). Help us maintain a servant attitude committed to one faith, one body, and serving one Lord. ...read more

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on May 1, 2023
     | 1,070 views

    This is a revision of a sermon I posted nearly two years ago that presented the story of creation from a scientific viewpoint. The wonder of creation is a witness to God's holiness, majesty, power, and glory.

    "IN THE BEGINNING, GOD CREATED THE HEAVENS AND THE EARTH" (Genesis 1:1). I want you to consider for a moment how solemn, awesome, powerful, and wondrous this statement is, for it presents the work, thought, and majesty of Almighty God. Some of you reading this might be thinking, ...read more
