God Shut The Door Series

Contributed by Jerry Smith on Mar 18, 2021

Once the time was right for the flood, God gathered Noah and his family and all the animals into the ark and God shut the door to the ark.

I am going to begin a new series of messages today. I think from the picture you can figure out what the theme is going to be – doors. I began researching doors in the Bible and discovered the word door is used around 260 times. Many of those times it refers to an actual door or doorway, but in ...read more

Sin Crouching At The Door Series

Contributed by Jerry Smith on Mar 18, 2021

The phrase “sin crouching at the door” the KJV has “lies at the door” depicts a wild animal such as a lion, ready to pounce on you. This is the word picture about the attack of sin. This word picture is not a literal door, but portrays Cain’s heart as a door.

Cain was the first human to ever be born on earth. His parents, Adam and Eve, both had special creation births. Many parents will read this story of Cain and remember what it was like to wait for the birth of their first child. So many hopes and dreams are wrapped up in that little baby who is your ...read more

Edom's False Security Series

Contributed by Jerry Smith on Mar 19, 2021

What gave the Edomites their arrogance and false sense of security?

we began a new study in the one-chapter Old Testament book of Obadiah. Historians do not know anything about him personally other than he wrote this prophesy. It is a little odd that this book is included in the OT writings, because it is not written to the nation of Israel, but to Edom. The ...read more

Zephania: Seek The Lord Series

Contributed by Fred Sigle on Jan 12, 2023

Zephaniah's message hits hard the ruling class of Judah for their part in leading the people down a path of immorality, corruption, and idolatry. (This sermon was preached during the Fourth of July)

ILLUSTRATION: French writer Alexis de Tocqueville (TOKEVILLE), after visiting America in 1831, said, “I sought for the greatness of the United States in her commodious harbors, her ample rivers, her fertile fields, and boundless forests—and it was not there. I sought for it in her rich mines, her ...read more

Nahum: Fall Of Assyria Series

Contributed by Fred Sigle on Jan 12, 2023

Nahum was a patriotic saint who had a deep hatred for the Assyrian nation. He speaks nothing about the internal conditions of Judah and Jerusalem; he leaves that to his contemporaries Jeremiah, Habakkuk, and Zephaniah.

ILLUSTRATION: A few weeks ago my family and I WATCHED the latest Rocky Balboa movie, “CREED.” It was surprisingly a good movie, especially since this is the sixth SEQUEL and seventh MOVIE made in the Rocky series. Sequels, of course, are a continuation of a STORY. Hollywood has learned the ...read more

"do Not Judge" Series

Contributed by Fred Sigle on Jan 12, 2023

Although Jesus said the words, "Do not judge..." (Matthew 7:1), we have to read on to see what Jesus is really teaching about judging and not judging others.

A. According to Lifeway Christian Resources, the most misused VERSE found in the Bible is: “DO NOT JUDGE.” 1. The Bible talks a lot about JUDGING, but the verse they had in mind was what Jesus taught at the close of His Sermon on the Mount: “Do not judge, or you too will be ...read more

Genesis Chapter 6: The Corruption Of Humanity And The Grace Of God By Pst Joseph Ondu Series

Contributed by Joseph Ondu on Nov 17, 2025

Noah’s obedience is a challenge to every believer. It is not enough to hear God’s Word; we must follow it carefully and consistently. The preservation of Noah’s family shows that righteousness does not only benefit an individual; it becomes a covering for generations.

Genesis Chapter 6: The Corruption of Humanity and the Grace of God Introduction Genesis chapter 6 marks a turning point in the story of humanity. What began as a creation filled with beauty, order, and divine purpose has now descended into deep corruption. The chapter shows the seriousness of ...read more

How Often I Would, But You Would Not

Contributed by John Gaston on May 3, 2023

God uses the metaphor of a hen to describe His love for us. We look at why He wants to gather us, the means He uses to do so, and the dangers of ignoring His call. Missed opportunities become judgments!

HOW OFTEN I WOULD, BUT YOU WOULD NOT Matt. 23:37-38 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. Here’s an early Mother’s Day joke. A pastor was talking to a teenage boy; “I want to teach you about a higher power.” 2. The teen answered, “You mean, my Dad?” The pastor laughed, “Haha! No! Much higher than that!” ...read more

Blessings To Thank For

Contributed by Efren V. Narido on Mar 29, 2024

Having a Heavenly Father, who is Sovereign and Loving, we are actually enjoying many blessings. Let’s remember them always. And be thankful. Apart from the physical or material favors, what spiritual blessings from Him we could be thankful for?

“God blessed Noah and his sons and said to them, ’Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth. The fear of you and the dread of you shall be upon every beast of the earth and upon every bird of the heavens, upon everything that creeps on the ground and all the fish of the sea.

Because Of Fearing God

Contributed by Efren V. Narido on Apr 5, 2024

If we really fear God, meaning we have great respect for Him, we regard Him highly, we are in awe of Him, our attitude or behavior will be so different. Even toward those who would want to harm us, our reactions would be far from the ordinary.

“Now when Sanballat and Tobiah and Geshem the Arab and the rest of our enemies heard that I had built the wall and that there was no breach left in it (although up to that time I had not set up the doors in the gates), Sanballat and Geshem sent to me, saying, ‘Come and let us meet ...read more

Before And After The Flood Of Noah’s Age

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 12, 2024

Imagine that Noah lived in the United States today, and that the Lord spoke to Noah and said:

"In one year, I am going to make it rain enough to cover the whole earth with water until all flesh is destroyed. But I want to save you and your family, and I am commanding you to build an ark." Then, In a flash of lightning, God delivered the specifications for an ark. In fear and ...read more

Taking The Battle To The Enemy PRO Sermon

Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 6, 2025

God’s justice and faithfulness empower us to pray boldly, resist the enemy, and finish the year with steadfast faith and triumphant praise.

Friends, as we gather today, I sense a hush of holy expectation. The kind that settles the soul and steadies the heart. The year has been full of peaks and potholes, headlines and heartaches, but here we are—still held, still hearing the whisper of a faithful God. Some of us carry victories we ...read more
