    The Old Testament Law was very strict about how the people of Israel were to clease themselves... but the bronze laver was only used by the priests. What can that mean for Christians today?

    The "Holy Place" was the ultimate place of worship for Old Testament Priests. What was it about the furniture in this room that God wanted to teach us?

In his hand he carried a worn out old hat and an equally worn out bible. ...read more

    When God’s leaders, whether secular political, secular business, or church religious leaders, fail, the result is disastrous for both God’s people and those around them.

    Some of you are bound to be offended at the title of this sermon. If you are familiar with the slang of a couple of generations ago, this was the ‘40s and ‘50s description of a person who had cast moral considerations aside and wanted to have a hot and heavy affair. It usually denigrated women as ...read more

    What does it mean to "remain" in Christ? The imagery of the Vine and the teaching Jesus gave call us to remain in Him and bear fruit.

    Behold The Lamb Of God Series

     | 10,220 views

    Why is the Apostle John the only Gospel writer to record the words of John the Baptist referring to Jesus as the Lamb of God? We will discover the answer to that question in this topical message titled Behold the Lamb of God.

    http://brushforkbanner.blogspot.com/ The words that John the Baptist chose to describe Jesus are very interesting. As a matter of fact, Jesus is only specifically called the Lamb of God twice in the whole Bible—once here and once a few verses later in verse 36. There is no doubt that John the ...read more

    Alive Beyond This Life Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Apr 13, 2008
    based on 8 ratings
     | 3,724 views

    God wants to give us life beyond this life, for God is love and live is never diminished. It is not something we attain by knowledge, but by trust. Two sweatshirts are pulled on and off to illustrate two ways of thinking about life beyond this life.

    God is love. So the Bible says, and that is, in a sense, all we need to know. God is love; and just as when you love someone you do not abandon them, so also the love of God, richer far than tongue or pen can ever tell, reaches to the highest height and to the lowest hell, and keeps on going ...read more
