Did Judas Do Any Good? Series

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Apr 5, 2023

Judas got nothing good–not pleasure or honor or power. He ended up being the only person in the Bible whom God judged as being better off never being born.

Wednesday of Holy Week 2023 It does not seem terribly fair what happened to poor Kerioth-born Judas, as Matthew records it. He sells out Jesus for what in today’s currency would be about $260. Then, seeing Jesus condemned to death, he changes his mind and attempts to return the money to the ...read more

The Call For Ministry

Contributed by Sion Duong on Dec 15, 2010

A powerful lesson for the young Christian generation who want to devote their life for ministry.

1. The way God calls his prophet. V 4. Now the word of the Lord came to me The first thing you will note is that this whole thing was God’s idea, not Jeremiah’s. “The word of the Lord came to me,” is how the story begins (v. 4). Jeremiah’s ambition, his sense of ...read more

A Command For A New Year (Draw Nigh Unto Me And I Will Draw Nigh Unto You)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Dec 27, 2023

This time of the year we are told that the Palm Readers do their greatest amount of business.

That should not surprise us!!! People are going to them to see what this coming year holds for them. Of course this is a waste of time and money because no man knows what the future holds. Palm reading is a practice that involves interpreting the lines and shapes of one’s hand to predict their ...read more

I Can't Remain If I Don't Love You

Contributed by Jim Miller on Nov 4, 2003

Jesus says that to remain in his love, you’ll obey his commands, and his command is this--love each other.

Clip from Grease, “Hopelessly Devoted” John 15:9-17 Just wanted to remind you about how God feels about you—except He’s hopefully devoted, crazy about you!

Sermon On The Mount # 4 What Are You Looking At?

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on May 26, 2022

The seventh commandment deals with adultery. This commandment defends the sanctity of the home. The Bible has a great deal to say about the sanctity of marriage.

However, because adultery is widespread across this country, many pastors know that if they preach on such a subject, it may cause some serious problems in their church. But a pastor that is called to preach the Word of God, does not make his decisions based on what the congregation wants to ...read more

Desert Happenings And Other News Series

Contributed by Roshelle Brenneise on Jun 19, 2025

Transitioning to chapter 20, it would seem that nearly the entire 40 years of wandering have passed without comment. Most of the old generation had died off and a new generation had taken its place.

June 21, 2025 Last week was not a good week. There was lots of whining and complaining and rebellion. What we learned is that even though Yahweh judged the people, his judgments did not curb their rebellion. No matter what he did, for their benefit or in discipline, complaining and rebellion ...read more

Chosen Genesis 50:15-26 The beginning of Genesis shows a continuing widening chasm between man and God.

God Gives Second Chances (Ezekiel 18:1-32) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jan 13, 2025

An academically rigorous, 1 week rabbit trail talking about generational punishments/curses, mostly following (and maybe slightly improving on) Margaret Odell's Ezekiel commentary.

Today, we have the privilege of working through a chapter of the Bible that I've been unsettled about, and wrestled with off and on, and changed my mind back and forth, for over 20 years. Ezekiel 18. If you're not familiar with the passage, that's fabulous. That's great. If you ...read more

The Lord Said Go!

Contributed by Clay Gentry on Sep 11, 2013

There are times when the Lord said wait. There are other times when He said GO! In this lesson we'll explore some of our Lord's GO! commands.

Many times in the scriptures the Lord commands His people to wait. Such passages as Psalms 27:14 “Wait on the Lord… Wait I say on the Lord!” or the words of Habakkuk 2:1 when prophet said “I will stand my watch…” and wait for the Lord. We understand the value ...read more

Lessons From Jeremiah – Part 20 – Teach Your Generation - And Wicked Men In Nations Lie In Wait For Evil Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on May 13, 2024

Have the churches been faithful in relaying the gospel, or has Christianity become something infused into the culture without being a dynamic force? Wicked men flourish. In Judah the people were spiritually blind and deaf. We need to take note ourselves.
