The Spirit Of Slave Laws Series

Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Oct 30, 2021

The topic of slavery is a very emotional one, because most people only know of corrupt forms of slavery and because the threat of such slavery still exists in the modern world. However, we need to learn that kidnapping and enforced slavery were also forbidden in the Bible.

Wings Of Jesus

Contributed by Michael Hobday on Jul 13, 2024

Today we explore Malachi, the last of the 12 minor prophets in the Old Testament, meaning “my messenger.” This book exposes Israel's corruption but also offers hope, leading us to our topic: "The Wings of Jesus."

Praise be to the wonderful and amazing name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Let us turn to The Book of Malachi, also called The Prophecy of Malachias, where God promises to redeem His people and send a Messiah to fulfill His covenant promises. The Intertestamental Period Between Malachi and ...read more

Take A Stand On Key Issues: Addiction, Abortion, & Marriage

Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Apr 2, 2021

The silence of the church on key issues of our day is deafening. By remaining silent on these issues, for fear of controversy, the church unilaterally makes itself irrelevant.

Rahab And The Spies Series

Contributed by Robert Leroe on Jan 17, 2016

There was a time when we were like Rahab. We were outside of the family of God, living in the blindness and corruption of sin, till God instilled faith in us. Like Rahab, we are invited just as we are. God will take us and transform us.

This is a story of grace... The last time spies were sent to do a covert reconnaissance of the Promised Land, there were twelve, sent by Moses, and only two of them, Caleb and Joshua, had faith to believe God would grant Israel victory. Perhaps symbolically, Joshua sent two men to glean ...read more

A Failure To Communicate Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Jun 25, 2017

Much of the conflict in our lives comes from "a failure to communicate". But it isn't that we fail to make ourselves clear. The problem is often that our communication is corrupt. Do you know what that means and do you know how to fix that?

The Great Disappearance

Contributed by John Gaston on Jul 23, 2014

We live in a time just before God's judgment on a corrupted world. So did Enoch. He got his own personal rapture; so can you. Four characteristics made him a candidate for that glorious event the same will qualify us too!

We Are Not Ignorant Of Satan’s Devices Or Schemes – Part 7 Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Dec 6, 2023

We live in a corrupt world. Truth has stumbled in the street, and uprightness cannot enter. Satan permeates right through society especially in the judiciary. There is little justice any more. We look at ways Christians are penalised by Satan’s system, but evil is promoted.

WE ARE NOT IGNORANT OF SATAN’S DEVICES OR SCHEMES – PART 7 We continue this study of the schemes Satan uses to infiltrate all aspects of humanity. His influence is everywhere. We need wisdom and reliance on the Lord for the battle we are engaged in. We will examine two more of these schemes. ...read more

God’s Bucket List For You

Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Oct 12, 2022

God desires for us to fulfill during our lifetime what is available to us that are identified in scripture. I call them God’s “bucket list” for us.

Your Bucket List Turn with me to First Timothy 6. On Tuesday I will have a birthday. I mention that because the verse we’re going to read hit me in a different way – in a way that it has never hit me before.
