    Who Really Killed Jesus?

    Contributed by Clay Gentry on Aug 22, 2013
     | 3,690 views

    Who killed Jesus? The Jews? The Romans? You and Me? Or was it someone else? In this lesson we'll answer all these questions and more.

    Who killed Jesus? It seems to be an innocuous enough question doesn’t it? And yet it’s one of those questions that have perplexed Christendom for more than two millennia. In today’s socio-political environment to even attempt to answer this question requires one to wade into the ...read more

    In Genesis, we see that God's Word should shape the world view of Christians

    Warped World Views Genesis 1:3,6,9,11,14,20,24,26 Intro: In a wealthy suburb of Indianapolis, a group of Christian High School students were asked, "Was Adolf Hitler wrong in murdering millions of Jews?" They said yes. The interviewer then asked them why. They did not realize that their response ...read more

    Is There A Place Of Eternal Punishment?

    Contributed by Jerry Flury on Apr 15, 2016
    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,561 views

    “Is there a place of eternal punishment?”, “Is hell real?”. If so, why does one go there? What can one do about it? What has God done about it? And what should our response be?

    Is There a Place of Eternal Punishment? 2 Thessalonians 1:5-10 In the 1800s, doubts about the reality of Hell began to arise among professed Christians, spreading rapidly into the 20th and 21st centuries. The great English Baptist pastor Charles Haddon Spurgeon observed this growing disbelief in ...read more

    THERE ARE A FEW EVENTS THAT HAPPEN, IN OUR LIVES THAT WE REMEMBER PARTICULARLY WELL. WE CAN PICTURE THEM VIVIDLY. ONE SUCH TIME WOULD BE THE DAY YOU ASKED THE LORD JESUS TO COME INTO YOUR LIFE AS SAVIOR AND LORD.

    Resurrection Deception

    Contributed by Robert Sickler on Jan 9, 2015
     | 3,768 views

    It is very difficult to recognize that which we are convinced cannot exist in our life time. This then is the point; the rapture is real but pre-tribulation-rapture doctrine has a very high potential for supporting Satan’s deception, which masks the coming of the antichrist.

    RESURRECTION DECEPTION SNAKE OIL There has always been someone who was willing to sell worthless crap to those gullible enough to buy it, and this is also true for Christians. Christendom is over flowing with those who are simple enough to buy almost anything the snake-oil-doctrine purveyors are ...read more

    The Lifting Up Of Smoke

    Contributed by Greg Irby on Jun 15, 2013
     | 4,698 views

    In the Bible, we find wickedness compared to a fire. We understand the analogy. Isaiah used such a comparison. The same fires which destroyed Israel may well be smoldering in our nation today

    THE LIFTING OF SMOKE ISAIAH 9 Text: Isaiah 9:18 Isaiah 9:18 18 For wickedness burneth as the fire: it shall devour the briers and thorns, and shall kindle in the thickets of the forest, and they shall mount up like the lifting up of smoke.

     | 1,764 views

    The Ten Commandments are central to Western Civilization. There has been much commentary on them. But what does it mean for us?

    No Other gods Before Me: An Exposition of Exodus 20:1-6 We begin this morning a series on the Ten Commandments with a study of the first two commandments. There are actually more than ten commandments if one breaks apart the second commandment and separate the prohibition making of graven images ...read more

    O Grave, Where Is Your Victory?

    Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 24, 2025
     | 70 views

    In Christ, death is sleep; resurrection at His coming grants immortality; hope rests on Jesus’ victory, not inherent human immortality.

    Introduction Picture a quiet country cemetery just before sunrise. Mist curls low among the stones. The dew is heavy, the birds only beginning to stir. Nothing seems more final than that stillness. Yet the Christian confession dares to speak right into that silence: “O death, where is thy ...read more

    Parables Of The Kingdom – The Third - The Mustard Seed - Part 3 Of 4 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Aug 15, 2025
     | 97 views

    We have seen how the parable of the mustard seed matches to church at Pergamum, and in this study today we look into that letter John wrote. In that church God wanted overcomers. We’ll consider the Nicolaitans, the hidden manna, the white stone with the new name.

    PARABLES OF THE KINGDOM – THE THIRD - THE MUSTARD SEED - PART 3 of 4 In the second Part we focused on Constantine who married the church to the State with his Babylonian paganism. The church was weakened after that point as it embraced these evil doctrines of the birds of the air. The mustard ...read more

    Jesus Is The Prince Of Peace

     | 7,144 views

    Isaiah 59:8 states, The way of peace they do not know; there is no justice in their paths. (NIV) These words could be said about Bethlehem in the time of Jesus. And about our world today. Yet into this world has come the One described in Isaiah 9:6, the Prince of Peace.

    Alba 1-2-2022 PRINCE OF PEACE Isaiah 9:6 We live in a world that is unable to stay at peace. We hope for it every new year. But every year disappoints, fulfilling our Lord's words that there will always be wars and rumors of war. Yet, there was in history a moment when the promise of peace ...read more

    The law has a purpose beyond itself. The law is a tool to form a people for God.

    Judicial philosophy is much in the news right now. And underlying the debates – in addition to some very important policy issues - are some very fundamental questions. Who makes the law? Where does law come from? What is law for? What can law do? What role should religion play in the formation of ...read more

    Before developing the themes of guilt and judgement (12:9-13:16), Hosea reminds Israel of its unfaithfulness (vv.1-2), and of its need to repent (vv. 5-6). In doing so he draws a lesson from the life of Jacob (vv. 3-4). Much like the people of our day the
