    There’s a storm of God’s judgment coming upon our land, but there is a force in the land to stem the tide. It’s the remnant church, on its face before God.

The memories of that day are so vivid that it doesn’t seem like 6 years have passed, but time marches on. Every year, as this date rolls ...read more

    God expects us to be transformed into the image of Christ. To refuse to do this we remain deformed in the image of the world.

    In November of 1977 we adopted our son Kevin. As Kevin grew, he would occasionally want to sleep in our “king-sized” bed with us. We were used to having our dog in bed with us, and the addition of Kevin added little to the problem. Before too long, Kevin preferred to sleep in the big bed with Mom ...read more

    In our drama today, we see it once again. This is not an authorization to blast people full-force with anger, vehemence or vitriol. It is, however, a demonstration to us that we have the biblical, God-ordained, Christian duty to be truly honest when we en

    We could actually entitle this study “Jesus and the Forbidding Pharisees, Part 6”. What we encounter today is almost a continuation of our study of Matthew 12.

    When we glory in the status of people, we forget how far we all fall short of the glory of God. The only thing we can glory in is the imputed righteousness of Christ. We forget that when we don’t treat people right.

    Temptation comes to all of us. But, like Christ, we can counteract temptation and resist it in the power of the Holy Spirit.

    James 1:2-4, 12-17 Is there anyone who has not been tempted to sin this week? If so, you may leave now. You can go straight to Braums. One of the truly great historical characters was Mark Antony. He was known as the “silver-throated orator of Rome.” He was a brilliant statesman, magnificent in ...read more

    How Christians should view trials of life.

    I’m wondering this morning if there is anybody who knows anything about trials. Is there anyone who’s going through a trial right now?

    How can these things be? That was the question Nicodemus asked Jesus in our passage today. Do you ever find yourself asking that question?

    A few weeks ago, when we looked at 2:23-25, I titled the sermon, “Belief That Isn’t.” This morning, I’m using the title, “Belief That Is.” Before John introduced us to the person of Nicodemus in chapter 3, he took just a few verses to describe the vast majority of people who were around Jesus at ...read more
