    The words diligence and industry do not carry as positive a connotation in our society as they once did. But the Bible exalts those that work over the "leisure-holics," and those who work with diligence over those who work with negligence.

The first nine chapters have set forth beautifully in what has been mainly connected discourse concerning the nature ...read more

     | 1,852 views

    In times like these, Christians are challenged to pursue true treasure by setting minds on, and holding onto, things of God versus letting unholy things of the world get hold of and own us.

    CHRISTIAN CHALLENGE SERMON IX: TRUE TREASURE DERIVES FROM INSIGHT INTO TRUE PLEASURE “My pleasure” is an idiom I sometimes use in response to a “thank you” . . . sort of like a special way of saying “you’re welcome” but reserved for especially gratifying, delightful experiences ...read more

  • The Day Of Judgment Series

    Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 7, 2021
     | 1,348 views

    We must open our spiritual eyes and recognize that there are thousands of victories being won everyday around the world. We are referring to the victories of light over darkness. The Christian must balance his pessimism concerning the world with his optimism concerning the kingdom of God.

    The optimist says the world is everyday in every way getting better and better. The pessimist says the world isn’t what it used to be, but is going to the dogs. The Christian realist says they are both right, because there are two kingdoms of reality. There is the world order, or that realm in ...read more

  • Fruit Of Evil Series

     | 1,347 views

    This is the test that Eve failed, and then Adam followed. The first sin of man, like the first sin in the life of most everyone, was very simple and not sensational.

    We have seen in our study of verse 6 that the fall of man was brought about by Satan’s subtlety in getting Eve to gain a good end by a bad means. The danger of allowing the end to justify the means is a real danger all of us need to be aware of, for none are immune to the virus of this danger. We ...read more
