Why does David compare himself to a olive tree? Olive trees have got lot of significance in early Israel. Olive trees are one of the most familiar trees in the entire Middle East. A bread and olive oil, often dipped first into a mixture of herbs and salt would make a simple Palestinian breakfast.

The Week That Changed The World: The Day Jesus Saw The Downfall Of Apostate Religion Series

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jul 15, 2021

Jesus finished His final day of public ministry. He taught the crowds in the Temple, confronted difficult questions, and then left for good. The Temple and its religious system was corrupt, useless, and irredeemable, and would be judged by God.

Mark 12:28-44 gives us details about the final day of Jesus' public ministry and HIs departure from the Temple. He will go to the Mount of Olives and present to His astonished disciples the reality of what is to come in the future, and it does not involve a new Israel free from Rome, nor the ...read more

A Cause Worth Fighting For Series

Contributed by Tim George on Dec 9, 2001

Either we define our times or they define us. In the familiar story of David and Goliath we see that truth played out. Saul and Israel were allowing the Philistines to define them. David was a different kind of man however. He intended to define his times

“ Then David said to the Philistine, "You come to me with a sword, with a spear, and with a javelin. But I come to you in the name of the LORD of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied. This day the LORD will deliver you into my hand … that all the earth may know that there is ...read more

My House Is Your House!

Contributed by Peter Schmidt on Nov 13, 2003

The Lord denies letting King David build the Israelites’ house of worship. But he gives David something better: a two-fold promise of a house. One house would last for a few centuries, and the other house would last forever, housing believers of every age

Advent IV II Samuel 7:8-11 There are some phrases that just come across better in one language than another. Take our sermon theme for instance. “My house is your house.” It isn’t hard to catch the meaning of that phrase, but it really doesn’t quite have the ring to it as it would in Spanish, “Mi ...read more

Things That Are So Easy To Do

Contributed by Rodelio Mallari on Dec 12, 2010

David was a man after God’s own heart yet he sinned on many occasions. His most grievous sin was probably his affair with Bathsheba and the murder of her husband Uriah. David found out just how easy it is to sin and to displease God.

Intro: The Bible is quite honest in its record of great men and women. It not only records their good deeds and testimony worthy of our example, but also their failures and sin which were written for our admonition and warning. Take one of the finest kings of Israel – David, a man after God’s own ...read more

How You Doing Is A No, No

Contributed by Ronnie Miller on Sep 13, 2012
