    God's Marvelous Love Attributes Of God – Part One Of Love (3 Of 10 Sermons)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 9, 2022
     | 1,296 views

    Several Christians were going from door to door on visitation in the Bahamas. Most of the people in the area were very cordial to them. However, one place was different.

    They came to a home and saw one of the servants working in the yard. They began to witness to him and he professed to be a Christian, and from all indications, his life reflected that he was. In fact, he was so excited about the Lord that he wanted those Christians to talk to his employer about ...read more

    Felix Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Mar 11, 2022
     | 2,727 views

    Felix represents many people intrigued by the gospel but recognizes that surrendering to it means losing status, power, or control of their own lives. Mere exposure to truth does not necessarily enlighten the heart, and Felix is an excellent example of that.

    Felix Felix was Festus' predecessor. He imprisoned Paul but allowed him to speak in his defense. He hoped Paul would offer him a bribe, but he never did. Festus thought Paul was delusional, but he did not think that was cause for putting him to death or locking him up, so he let him ...read more

    Trust And Obey (2 Of 2)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 22, 2022
     | 1,930 views

    This morning we looked at something we talk, teach, preach and sing about, that is, “TRUST AND OBEY!”

    We dealt with the TRUST this morning, but this evening we would like to deal with the OBEY part of that song. Something that Peter and the early disciples understood that today’s church does not understand, is that WE CHRISTIANS ARE TO OBEY GOD. They understood that you obeyed God: • When it was ...read more

    No Evil Will Befall Thee Series

    based on 3 ratings
     | 4,836 views

    Let us study the life of a young man in the bible, who was challenged with such hardships in succession. However as this young man stood firm in his faith in the Lord, he not only overcame these calamities, but also by his faith in God, received the fulfillment of God's promises in his life.

    Psalm 91 - No Evil Will Befall You We read in Psalm 91:10, “So nothing bad will happen to you. No diseases will come near your home.” (ERV) We have understood from our previous study that this promise of God as mentioned in the verse above, that ‘no diseases will come near your home,’ holds good ...read more

    Sermon # 26 - Be Grateful - Don't Grumble Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Nov 15, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 900 views

    Jonah’s disobedience and rebellion stemmed from an ungrateful heart. The Israelites too had to wander in the wilderness because of their constant grumbling and lack of thankfulness. Let’s learn to set aside all grumbling and replace it with a thankful heart.

    We read in Jonah 3:1-3, “Then the LORD spoke his word to Jonah a second time. He said, "Leave at once for the important city, Nineveh. Announce to the people the message I have given you." Jonah immediately went to Nineveh as the LORD told him. Nineveh was a very large city. It took three ...read more

     | 1,192 views

    As Jonah travailed in the belly of the fish he called out to God knowing that only God could help him. In the midst of all the trials, difficulties and challenges that come our way do we call out to God? Here’s what happens when we do so.

    We read in Jonah 2:1-2, “From inside the fish, Jonah prayed to the LORD his God: When I was in trouble, LORD, I prayed to you, and you listened to me. From deep in the world of the dead, I begged for your help, and you answered my prayer.” (CEV) Jonah called out to the Lord his God from inside the ...read more

    Claiming The Name

     | 3,322 views

    By following Christ’s example we can know that there is a BIG difference between "saying" that we’re a Christian and BEING a Christian.

    ONE OF THE GREATEST ABUSES OF TITLES TODAY IS "CHRISTIAN." TOO MANY PEOPLE ARE USING THIS TITLE AS IF IT WERE ONLY A SUMMATION OF THEIR LIVES AS BEING A GOOD, DECENT, CHURCH-GOING, LAW-ABIDING CITIZEN. CHRISTIANITY IS NOT A "TITLE" TO BE ABUSED OR USED AS LEVERAGE. A CHRISTIAN IS WHAT ONE BECOMES ...read more

    Like the blind man of Bethsaida, the resurrection of Jesus brings us the power of the Second touch of God!

    The God of the Second Touch! A. Good Morning! I am reading from Mark 8:22-26… Of all the stories of Jesus we might read and study, from the perspective of a believer, this story might just be the strangest of all. 1.
