I Shall Not Be Headless (Part 1) Series

Contributed by Jeremiah Menyongai on Sep 5, 2016

Saul says to David: "I have played the fool." Indeed, he had. Due to his wrong choice of consulting a witch, Saul committed the ultimate rebellion & finds himself among biblical characters who committed suicide. Should suicide be an option for Christians?

Peter's Wonderful Surprise Series

Contributed by David Owens on Aug 20, 2018

After denying Jesus three times, Peter must have felt that Jesus would want nothing more to do with him, but on resurrection morning Peter received two wonderful surprises that told him he couldn't be more wrong about that.

Introduction: A. One day an attorney gathered the entire family for the reading of the will of their wealthy relative. 1. Kinfolk came from near and far, to see if they were included in the bequests. 2. The lawyer somberly opened the will and began to read: “To my cousin Ed, I leave my ranch. To ...read more

In A World Gone Mad, Where Is God?

Contributed by Michael Stark on Feb 28, 2019

When we cry out "It's not fair," we are forgetting that God has fixed a day when He will judge the world in righteousness. Followers of the Christ must look to Him to make right the wrong that now permeates the world.

“[God] has fixed a day on which he will judge the world in righteousness by a man whom he has appointed; and of this he has given assurance to all by raising him from the dead.” [1] Sexually frustrated men driving vans on city sidewalks intent on killing innocent and helpless women, out-of-control ...read more

Your Crossroads And God's Roadmap

Contributed by Bright Adeyeye on Nov 22, 2019

Just because a decisive path seems right doesn't mean it's the right one. But that does not mean it is wrong either. When at a crossroad, we must, therefore, ask and trust God to show us which way to go.

YOUR CROSSROADS AND GOD'S ROADMAP "This is what the Lord says: “Stop at the crossroads and look around. Ask for the old, godly way, and walk in it. Travel its path, and you will find rest for your souls. But you reply, ‘No, that’s not the road we want!’ Jeremiah 6:16. Just because a ...read more

Engagement And Marriage Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Apr 18, 2019

In Corinth, there was a grave danger facing a girl who had reached the age of marriage. If she wanted to marry, and her father would not allow her to do so, she might disgrace her father and ruin her own testimony by marrying the wrong person.

Peter's Exhortation On Preparing For Suffering Series

Contributed by Tony Fox on Apr 22, 2016

Will there come a time in America when Christians' faith will literally be on trial in courts of law? If you doubt it, you're wrong. We are living in the beginning of those times. What should we do? See what Peter wrote to the strangers scattered abroad.

Peter The Son Of Lightning Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 18, 2021

Peter made mistakes, but he was not stupid. He never stuck with a mistake when he saw it for what it was. He was a great man just because he could retreat as fast as he advanced when he saw he was going the wrong direction.

Some years back a young girl was caught out in a thunder storm as she rode her bicycle. She made it to the top of the hill and then headed down as fast as she could go. When she got home she told a strange tale. Every time there was a flash of lightning blue flames ran across her handle bars. Had ...read more

While We Suffer (Covid And The Christian) Series

Contributed by Joe Williams on Nov 13, 2020

A word we don't like is submission. We certainly don't like it when we feel as if we're being wronged somehow. “Submission” is the key ingredient that enables a Christian to live a good life among the ungodly!

I’m confident that in the years that follow, there will be plenty of articles and books written about this chapter in world history and in church history. And they will address the question, “what lessons did we learn from all of this?” And I’m confident that much of that will be helpful. Looking ...read more

Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Mar 6, 2020

He had all the "right stuff", humanly speaking, but he knew something was wrong. He ran to Jesus, listened to Jesus, but walked away. "Go thy way" wasn't something he wanted to do.

Based on a message preached at First Baptist Church, Glasgow, MO, 2014 This is not an exact transcription Background: When an event in Scripture is recorded once, it’s clearly important.

We take 22 aspects of Liberal Theology and look at why each is wrong. Some Liberals may hold to only one of these; others, many of them, but their adherence system will incorporate most of them. It is difficult to generalise because liberal thinking expands and changes.

Pride And The Wicked Tenants

Contributed by Michael Blitz on Apr 5, 2025

So often we let our pride get in the way from admitting we were wrong, or to see something from another angle. This morning the Pharisees Pride keeps them from acknowledging Jesus for who he is and provide a cautionary tale for us.

Pride and the Wicked Tenants Good Morning. Believe it or not, we are in the final days of Lent! The Scripture lessons from today through Good Friday are all Jerusalem and Temple themed. Today’s especially we focus on a common temple theme of having a right heart and purity when we come before God. ...read more
