Christ: More Excellent

Contributed by Clark Tanner on Jan 3, 2002

He is better than the prophets, better than the Law and the sacrifices, better than the angels.

About 6 or 7 years ago a new merchandizing craze began, and although at the time I thought it to be another passing fad, it seems that it has not only not died out...but has really only slowed down a little bit in all that time. I’m referring to angels. The merchandizing of everything ...read more

"The Christmas Confrontation” Pt. 2

Contributed by Dave Kinney on Dec 9, 2005

I ask all of us the question…Does the prophet Amos speak prophetically describing America in another 25 years? The battle for the soul of America is on the line!

Proverbs 29: 18 “Where there is no revelation (prophetic vision), the people cast off restraint.” Amos 8:11-12 “Behold, the days are coming, says the Lord, that I will send a famine, not of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the Lord…They shall run to and fro, seeking the ...read more

Getting Real With God Series

Three Coins In The (Spirit) Fountain Series

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Oct 28, 2007

Everyone wants fulfillment. Some try being good, but that only brings smugness. Some try religion, as Luther did, but that brings only busy-ness. Life and peace are found in the Spirit of God as our companion.

When I look deep down and ask myself what I really want out of life, one answer keeps coming back over and over: I want meaning. I want significance. I want fulfillment. When I look deep down and ask myself what I really want for my life, I know that the accumulation of things is not it. These ...read more

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Nov 22, 2024

Jonah was a prophet of God sent with a prophetic word for the people of Nineveh. In today’s context, ‘How can we discern who is a true prophet of God and who are false?’ God’s word gives us clear instructions on how to test and treat prophecies.

The prophet Jeremiah implicitly revealed the responsibilities of the true preacher.

Intro One of the pitfalls a preacher or teacher of the Bible can run into is to always read the Bible looking for sermons or a Sunday School Lesson. Oddly enough, such an approach robs the preacher of the very thing he exhorts the congregation to do - that is, spend time with God in the word ...read more
