    Why God? Why? (October 12. 2012).

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Aug 14, 2020
     | 3,419 views

    Can we always make sense out of tragedies? Like Paul tell us as Job discovers, we have to grasp that nothing can separate us from God’s love (Romans 8:35 -39). We do not get to that place in our journey without God’s help.

    WHY GOD? WHY? Text: Job 38:1- 7 “Elie Wiesel ….tells a story he heard in a concentration camp: Three rabbis put God on trial for being absent from humanity. They find God guilty as charged. When the trial ends, one rabbi looks at his watch and says, “It’s time for prayers.” The ...read more

    This is a funeral message.

    What The Bible Teaches About Cremation

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Oct 28, 2021
     | 5,171 views

    The purpose of this course is to make today’s Christian think about some of the things we are facing in our society as Christians. Christian people should be “thinking” people when it comes to the issues we face in our society.

    For example, as Christians: • We can not allow others to do our thinking for us when it comes to deciding what is RIGHT and what is WRONG. • We can not just ignore these issues we face and hope they will go away. Through the ages of time, God’s people have had to face difficult situations in ...read more

    Funeral Service #1

     | 5,650 views

    This Funeral Message is suitable for a man/woman who got saved late in life. Perhaps a man or woman who was saved by the grace of God, but didn’t have a lot of time to grow in the grace of God and mature.

    Many of us can remember a time in our life, when on a dark night, we stood outside and looked up into the sky, and saw literally millions of stars. They were beautiful; they looked like diamonds on black velvet. But today, many of us live in the city, and because of the many bright lights we are ...read more

    What The Bible Teaches About Hell

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 29, 2022
     | 1,599 views

    The last event in the life of SAINTS, as far as being connected to earth, is after the millennium they go to their eternal home in the glorious place the Bible calls heaven.

    But in this message we are going to study the last thing that will happen to SINNERS, as they will spend eternity in the horrendous place the Bible calls hell! In this day of liberalism, when a preacher preaches about hell he is immediately branded in a negative way as being one of those ...read more

    There are days in our life that stand out above others and we will never forget those days as long as we live.

    • We can remember the day we got married In all fairness, some of us men do forget our anniversary, which is not a good thing to do!

     | 2,102 views

    Today we come to this memorial service with sad hearts, grieving over the death of this loved one.

    We do not like to see our friends and loved ones suffer as he had to suffer in the last few years of his life. But sometimes this suffering is a blessing in disguise. It gives: • A person a chance to reflect on the way they live their life • A person a chance to repent of their sins and make ...read more

    El ser humano no tiene poder de hacer mas con un muerto que sepultarlo; pero un muerto en las manos de Dios, pues es otra cosa.

    Miss you, we will without a doubt. Long for your love and understanding, everyday without exception. Mourn our loss, deeply and for the rest of our lives. Confident that we will be with you again in the presence of Jesus, never a hesitation!

    1Th. 4:13-18 Rom 12:9-18 Let us not be ignorant…so St. Paul informs us, let us not be like the rest of men who have no hope. No hope. Darkness, emptiness, zero. No hope. Fear. Anxiety.

    "Lord, Why Did They Have To Die?" Series

     | 4,976 views

    Job was a very righteous man. In fact the Bible says that he was blameless and that he feared God and stayed away from evil. A messenger shows up and gives him all kinds of bad news. Your oxen are dead. So are your sheep. Now your servants are dead.

    “Lord why did THEY have to die?” Luke 7:11-16 The time of year was Christmas and my family and I were gathering together to celebrate. We were at my mother’s home in Arkansas. My sister came in; she had her son with her. He was about to turn one. I asked where her husband and ...read more
