    God In The Dark

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Mar 29, 2020
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,801 views

    Where was God when Jesus was crucified? The divine mystery is that God provided Himself as a sacrifice for sinful man. We are humbled by this knowledge, and eternally blessed.

    “From the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land until the ninth hour. And about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, ‘Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani?’ that is, ‘My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?’ And some of the bystanders, hearing it, said, ‘This man is calling ...read more

    Dark Angel

    INVISIBLE… There’s more to life than what you see. The invisible is all around us. What we can’t see physically is real. As a matter of fact often more real, more substantive than what we can actually see.

    This is from a transcript of a sermon preached by Dr. Jack Graham on September 18, 2011 We got back from Israel this past week, about 15 of us, including 10 of our young ministers. We had an incredible time walking where Jesus walked and experiencing those sights once again. I’ve been to ...read more

    God made atonement as Jesus hung on the cross. All who receive Him as Master over life are brought into the family of God, forgiven all sin, and saved forever.

    “From the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land until the ninth hour. And about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, ‘Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani?’ that is, ‘My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?’ And some of the bystanders, hearing it, said, ‘This man is calling ...read more

    Darkness And Light

    The promise and hope of our darkness being turned into light, our blindness into sight.

    Ann Landers wrote this story in The Washington Post: “Mrs. Smith was stark-naked and just about to step into the shower when the doorbell rang. She hollered, ‘Who is it?’ He shouted back, ‘It’s the blind man.’ She figured it was safe, so she opened the door. He looked at her in shock and ...read more

    Do demons exist? And if they do, what do we know about them and how can we deal with them?

    Years ago, we had a popular preacher in our brotherhood named Ben Alexander. Ben had once been a Spiritualist Medium who held seances where he’d talk with the dead. Then he became a Christian, and spent much of his life explaining that a lot of seances he’d been part of (he said) were fake… but ...read more

    Have you ever noticed how much darkness surrounds the Christmas story – how much happens in the dark?

    What we’re trying to do is push back the darkness.

    So, Matthew says that, “when Jesus heard that John [the Baptist] had been arrested, he withdrew….” What does that tell us? It tells us – doesn’t it? – that there is a force of darkness at work in this world. And we know what that means, of course. It means there ...read more

     | 9,018 views

    This world can often be a very dark place - senseless acts of violence, hatred and abuse - selfishness, greed and anger in our own hearts and lives. A saving Light appears that brings genuine peace and lasting purpose. See how Jesus is a Light in the darkness of this world.

    What do you do when you walk into a dark room? You reach for the light switch, right? For many of us, it’s probably hard to imagine living without that little thing called “the lightbulb” – that little glass bulb that instantly dispels the darkness and brings light. Can you imagine experiencing ...read more

    Instead of hiding our eyes from God’s light, we should approach it and take it for our own use and to light the lives of others.

    Living in darkness: Seen by unclean acts [here, primarily immoral] (1-5) Makes one an object of God’s wrath [active punishment] (6) Joining with disobedient people (7) Is a description of a believer’s former condition (8) We must light the darkness we live in.

    The beautiful truth of Christ's mission is that God was not just content to contain darkness or to hold it at bay for a while. Instead, he pierced the heart of it and conquered it on our behalf.

    INTRODUCTION The passage just read is probably one of my favorite Christmas passages from one of my favorite books of the Bible. In fact, it is one of the reasons Isaiah has sometimes been called the “fifth gospel”, because between this, 7:14, 11:1-9, and chapter 53, we have an almost complete ...read more

    A sermon on hope, using the rescue of the nine coal miners in Pennsylvania as the central illustration.

    This morning, I’d like to consider the topic of "hope". Is hope important? Is it something we need? Is it essential to our happiness, essential even to our survival? For an answer to that question, we could probably talk to the nine coal miners who were rescued this week in Pennsylvania. They spent ...read more
