    The British have a condescending saying: “How odd of God to choose the Jews.”

    The British have a condescending saying: “How odd of God to choose the Jews.” They sneeringly look down on God’s chosen people. Yet God’s choice is not odd. The Jews chose God. And through them came our Savior. Some people deny that Jesus was Jewish; the idea that Jesus was a Jew is ...read more

    Contributed by Guy Glass on Jul 3, 2023
     | 1,611 views

    This message continues the Sermon on the Mount series. Jesus is in these verses defining the Law and His fulfillment of it. In this message you should see the relevance of the Law, our responsibility towards the fulfilled Law, and what our response should be to that.

    THE SERMON ON THE MOUNT THE CONDUCT OF THE FOLLOWER OF CHRIST REGARDING THE LAW – INTRODUCTION MATTHEW 5:17–20 “DO NOT THINK THAT I HAVE COME TO ABOLISH THE LAW OR THE PROPHETS; I HAVE NOT COME TO ABOLISH THEM BUT TO FULFILL THEM. 18I TELL YOU THE TRUTH, UNTIL HEAVEN AND EARTH DISAPPEAR, NOT THE ...read more

     | 1,580 views

    These words of Jesus are popular: “Come to me all who are weary and burdened and I will give you rest. Ah! The key words: "rest for your souls". It is a spiritual message. Yoke yourself to Jesus. He has obeyed perfectly and will share His salvation.

    Contributed by John Lowe on Sep 6, 2022
     | 1,857 views

    The men of Succoth, lived on an excellent army route between Canaan and the East, and having regard only for self and no concern for Israel's deliverance and no compassion for the sufferings of Gideon's gallant little band, would give no bread to their brethren.

    They come to Succoth. Ex 12:37-40. 37The Israelites journeyed from Rameses to Sukkoth. There were about six hundred thousand men on foot, besides women and children. 38Many other people went up with them, and also large droves of livestock, both flocks and herds. 39With the dough the Israelites ...read more

    Endurance Under Stress Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Feb 9, 2022
     | 2,271 views

    Does coming to Christ mean the end of suffering? Sorry, no it does not. To this, suffering, you were called. Christ suffered and left an example of suffering. We have great verses in 21-25 about what Christ’s death on the cross means. Christ suffered for you.

    It was one of those dramatic stories. The town ruffian named Big Joe became a Christian. After all the noses he had broken, black eyes he had given the meanest toughest man in town accepts Christ and becomes a changed man. Now instead of a violent temper he endured patiently, even under stress. ...read more

    Gog And Magog: God's War On Israel's Enemies (Ezekiel 38-39)

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jun 13, 2024
     | 2,369 views

    Ezekiel 38-39 contains one of the greatest prophecies in the Bible, describing a massive invasion of Israel in the "latter years" by a great confederation of nations. The aftermath will show that God Almighty is the protector of HIs people.

    In reading the account of the coming Gog-Magog War in Ezekiel 38-39, we need to ask some relevant questions on how everything comes to pass. First, who are the invaders of Israel mentioned in the prophecy? We read about ten proper names in Chapter 38:1-6 that help us identify the invading ...read more

     | 1,623 views

    This message is probably one of the hardest messages I have ever had to both prepare for and preach. I am sure this message will be accepted by some and criticized by others. My goal was to be true to where the Scripture took me and the conclusions of that study

    A Second Look

     | 1,668 views

    The Unfailing Word

    Contributed by Robert Leroe on Nov 2, 2023
     | 1,504 views

    The authority of Scripture is crucial to our faith. The Bible is either God’s word or mere human opinion.

    I give you my word!” How often have we heard this? We hear it from politicians, salespersons, recruiters, unlicensed contractors, and unreliable people in general. When people give us their “word,” how dependable is their word? When they make claims and promises, we need to know their basis of ...read more
