    Judas Contracts The Betrayal Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Mar 26, 2019
     | 6,395 views

    Judas Iscariot, whom Jesus called “the son of perdition,” lived up to his name by agreeing to hand over Jesus to the religious leaders for a rather insignificant amount of money. How did he get the courage for this evil act? The Bible has the answer.

    Tom Lowe 11/12/2007 HARMONY OF THE GOSPELS JUDAS CONTRACTS THE BETRAYAL Matthew 26:14-16, Mark 14:10-11, LUKE 22:3-6 (ZECHARIAH 11:12) Judas Iscariot[1], whom Jesus called “the son of perdition,” lived up to his name by agreeing to hand over Jesus to the religious leaders for a rather ...read more

     | 15,396 views

    This sermon looks at someone who is a criticizer, a person with a judgmental attitude and a critical spirit.

    The Criticizer Matthew 7:1-5 Two taxidermists stopped before a window where an owl was on display. Immediately they criticized the way the owl was mounted. They noted that the eyes were not natural, nor the wings proportionate to its head, and its feathers were not neatly arranged, and its feet ...read more

    He Taught Them Many Parables… (The Pharisee And The Publican) # 20

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 14, 2022
     | 1,525 views

    One of the biggest problems we have in this country and around the world today, is the problem with relationships.

    Our courts are backed up for years, and most of them are due to relationship problems. For example: (1) WE HAVE MARRIAGE RELATIONSHIP PROBLEMS When we see the way some husbands and wives act towards each other, it is hard to believe that at one time they stood at the sacred altar before God and ...read more

     | 2,835 views

    To succeed, to live, to love, and to serve we must... (Material adapted from LeRoy Lawson in his book, The Lord of Love, Chapter 9 with same title as sermon)

    HoHum: To be, or not to be; that is the question- whether ‘tis nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune, or to take arms against a sea of troubles, and by opposing, end them? Few lines of Shakespeare are better known that these. If I had understood Shakespeare, I’d ...read more

    The Danger Of Knowing Too Much - When We Know Too Much!

    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Mar 10, 2022
     | 3,161 views

    Knowing too much can be called “The Joseph’s Son Syndrome.” It will cause you reject the help you need; overlook people you need and ignore the possibility of what could be.

    Sermon – When We Know Too Much! Luke 4:14-30 “Then Jesus returned to Galilee, filled with the Holy Spirit’s power. Reports about him spread quickly through the whole region. 15 He taught regularly in their synagogues and was praised by everyone. 16 When he came to the village of Nazareth, his ...read more

    God's Prayer Agenda (Pt 1) Series

    Contributed by Art Campbell on Mar 14, 2022
     | 1,733 views

    When we understand God’s agenda for prayer our prayer life will be enriched.

    In our recent Discipleship Survey it was exciting to see that a majority of us here at BBC pray at least once per week. Some of you are pretty spiritual - over 40% pray at least 4 days a week! But looking at this chart it also appears that a bunch of people still struggle with prayer. A quarter ...read more

    Class/Message Introduction - Hearing Gods Voice and the Goal of Prayer

    INTRODUCTION Prayer is basic and fundamental in the life of the Born-Again Christian, being the very life line itself. It is simple communication and not some ethereal mental exercise of mystical contemplation and assent to a God that lives ‘way out there somewhere.’ It is an act of worship, ...read more

    Freedom And The Fruits Of The Spirit (June 30, 2019)

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Mar 2, 2021
     | 3,366 views

    Paul preached about God’s grace whereas his opponents preached contrary to Paul’s message arguing that the law required circumcision. Why would a prisoner who has been granted freedom want to return to prison?

    FREEDOM AND THE FRUITS OF THE SPIRIT Text: Galatians 5:1, 13-26 Galatians 5:1, 13-16:  For freedom Christ has set us free; stand firm therefore, and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery.  …  (13)  For you were called to freedom, brothers. Only do not use your freedom as ...read more

    "who's Number One?"

    Contributed by Ken Sauer on Mar 2, 2021
    based on 3 ratings
     | 4,585 views

    A sermon about humility.

    “Who’s Number One?” Mark 9:33-37 I love that the writers of the Gospels included this story. It teaches us so much, and it also holds a mirror up to me—perhaps to all of us as human beings. There is no place for judgment here, for who of us hasn’t found ourselves vying for the best places, ...read more

    God Is Not Mocked. What Does It Really Mean?

    Contributed by Bruce Hadley on Jun 22, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,614 views

    Most believe God is not mocked is primarily speaking to non-believers, who choose not to listen to God's will. However, there is more to God is not mocked that really speaks to us believers than we realize.

    Galatians 6:7 Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. All week this scripture has been ringing in my head. Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. To mock someone is to disrespect, dishonor, or ...read more

    Reflecting The Light Of Love

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Apr 30, 2022
     | 2,645 views

    The darkness in this world spreads, but the light of Christ shines. And it illumines us and radiates through us to the world.

    I want to draw your attention again to the beginning of this passage, where it say, “When he had gone out…” (John 13:31). Who is John talking about here? Who is it that has just “gone out”? It’s Judas, isn’t it? If you rewind a few verses in this thirteenth chapter of John, you see that Jesus is ...read more

    How to stop the pity party from Psalm 77; Psalm 77 invites us to look, learn and love Adapted from Eugene Peterson's book, "Where Your Treasure Is"

    HoHum: Back in the 60’s there was a singer named Lesley Gore who recorded, “It’s My Party.” The lyrics were written by Seymour Gottlieb, a freelance songwriter. The song lyrically portrays the discomfort of a teenage girl at her birthday party when her boyfriend Johnny disappears, only to return ...read more

    Falling Into Hell

    Contributed by John Gaston on Jul 6, 2022
     | 2,735 views

    In Numbers 16, we have the rebellions of Dathan, Abiram, and Korah warn us about evil associations, show us God's mercy in judgment, and give us a vision into the tragedy of people falling into Hell. Ends with a gripping illustration.

    FALLING INTO HELL Numb. 16:28-34 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. An optimist and a pessimist spent a week together on a tropical island. “Isn’t this ocean just amazing?” the optimist said. “The endless horizon, the crashing waves, the soft sand...it makes you appreciate the beauty of our planet.” ...read more
