    Provoking Thoughts From 1 John (10 Of 16)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 10, 2022
     | 1,558 views

    In this passage of scripture, John deals with something we want to look at very closely and consider in this message.

    He deals with the topic of how we are supposed to love one another. Of course much of the Bible deals with this subject, yet it seems to be something we Christians know very little about and those who are not Christians know even less. As we look at our text we want to learn from what it says to ...read more

    Saturday of 7th Week in Easter 2023 Today’s readings from the NT close out both the book of Acts and the Gospel of John.

    Just a few days ago the city of Baghdad was plunged into darkness - the wailing of bombs and sirens was followed a complete blackout of the city - hospitals - homes and army posts alike were dependent on the moon - candles and the flash of light from fearful bombs.

    When I was in Bible College, one of my professors repeatedly told us we needed Acts 20:20 vision, and take the Gospel of Christ from door to door as well as in the public. The apostle Paul was a man with this type of Acts 20:20 vision. His vision for t

    The account of Noah is ridiculed, but it is filled with interesting facts, some problems, but much challenging teaching. This message, Part 1 of 3, examines the times of Noah with reference to our times and even beyond that. Who were the Nephilim?
