Philip & The Ethiopian Eunuch

Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 22, 2021

God works strategically so that all races are included. God is working to populate heaven with all kinds of color. The Holy Spirit wants us to move past the barrier of the races.

We love to tell the “before and after” stories. Weight loss - I lost 100 pounds! Before and after for dental cosmetics commercials. Rogaine – I have hair! Or look at this one: meet my wife’s first husband (show picture of younger me) -:). Acts loves to tell “before and after” stories as well. Only ...read more

The Thessalonians # 15a (1 Of 2)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 6, 2022

This is the last chapter of Paul’s letter to the Christians that he loved and respected at Thessalonica.

As far as we know, this was the last time Paul communicated with them. You can sense the love he had for them as you read this last chapter he wrote to them. There are many things that take place in a church that are not obvious, but one thing should be obvious to all, and that is the love God’s ...read more

Acts Of The Apostles (12 Of 39)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 14, 2022

Remember that we read in the sixth and seventh chapters of Acts, about the life and death of that great deacon, Stephen.

The church lamented his death, and probably wondered who could take his place. They did not need to wonder, because when the Lord takes a saint home, He always raises up someone to take up where that saint left off. When we got to chapter 8, by the time we got to the fifth verse, we found that ...read more

Paul Preaching The Cross Series

Contributed by Howard Gwartney on Mar 16, 2022

May God add His blessing to the reading of His inspired and inerrant Word! I want to preach to you today about “the preaching of the cross of Jesus.”

28. The Kingdom Parables – The Seventh – The Dragnet – Part 4 Of 6 Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Dec 19, 2025

Christians can be weak and blind and wear dirty garments when out of touch with the Lord. We look at the Lord’s remedy for these lukewarm, sinful Laodiceans pitifully smug in their church. They thought they were rich but they were wretched, miserable, poor, blind and naked.

28. THE KINGDOM PARABLES – THE SEVENTH – THE DRAGNET – PART 4 OF 6 The seven Kingdom parables of Matthew 13 are a wonderful study of integration. In all these we have looked at the parable itself to understand it. Then we looked at the parallel church in Revelation chapters 2 and 3 that matches ...read more
