    The Peril Of False Prophets (Part 2)

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Apr 20, 2022
     | 1,924 views

    Satan seeks to do all he can to hinder and defeat the church. One of the tools he likes to use is deception. If he can distort the truth, causing people to believe a lie, then he has succeeded in his efforts.

    The Peril of False Prophets (Part 2) Matthew 7: 15-20 In our last study we began to consider Jesus’ teaching concerning false prophets, those who come in among the church in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. I remain convinced that this passage needs to be preached and ...read more

    Twelve Ordinary Men - Nathanael Series

    based on 5 ratings
     | 11,126 views

    This is a study of Nathanael based on 12 Ordinary Men. It has a lot of added notes and scripture.

    Note: This is a study from the book 12 Ordinary Men by John McArthur an excellent book. There is also a fill in the blank outline from Adult Bible Fellowships of First Baptist Church Orion that I have posted in the series. This is not original but worth posting for study. Twelve Ordinary ...read more

    From "Heel Grabber" to "Overcomer"

    June 18, 2022 Every story has a beginning – today we find ourselves in Genesis 25. Isaac was 40 years old when he married Rebekah. 20 years later, after much prayer, Rebekah was finally “with children”. My Jewish Bible gives us an early insight of things to come: “The children fought with ...read more

    Even though the world is against you, do not be fooled into giving up your faith!

    INTRODUCTION • SLIDE #1 • Sometimes for those in Christ it is hard to keep in mind that we are under attack on a daily basis. • Some of the attacks come from people we know, some from people we love, some come from the culture in which we live. • The media is on a crusade to ...read more

    Rooted In Jesus

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 25, 2024
     | 1,576 views

    The fact that believers are in a state of being complete in Christ indicates that there is nothing of a higher spiritual blessing to be found anywhere else including, but not limited to, this false Gnostic philosophy found in Colosse.

    Opening illustration: There was once a farmer who went to town to purchase seeds for his farm. As he was returning home one of the squash seeds he had purchased fell from his pocket onto the ground. It happened that within a few feet was another seed of a different type. The place where the two ...read more

    Drawn By Beauty

    Contributed by Brian Williams on Sep 27, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,989 views

    Where does beauty come from and why are we attracted to it? Why do we as human beings desire to make beautiful creations? The existence of objective beauty points to a God of beauty who loves His creation and desires to give us joy and pleasure.

    Today I will be speaking about how objective beauty points us to the Creator God. We’ll be looking at Psalm 27:4 and Psalm 96:6. One thing I have asked from the LORD, that I shall seek: That I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, To behold the beauty of the LORD and to ...read more

    Jehoshaphat joined himself to go to war to aid Ahab despite the word of God which was clear that they were going to lose. In this sermon we extract lessons from this story which we can apply in our lives today

    In the previous sermon (it's not over until it's over), we learnt about a war which started in heaven and was fought by celestial beings. In this chapter, we shall consider another war which happened on planet earth involving humans and is recorded in 1st Kings Chapter 22. Jehoshaphat the ...read more

     | 10,570 views

    Every single one of these men - Judas, Peter, The Sanhedrin, believe that they are faithful, and they appear faithful to those around them. But appearing to be spiritual, appearing to be faithful is neither spiritual nor faithful, it only appears to be.

    Jesus, an innocent man, is arrested in an olive grove and now stands ready to be condemned to death – there is no doubt about the outcome. How did it all come to this? How did it come to this, that the most theologically adept men of the day sat ready to condemn an innocent man, they sat ready to ...read more

    I remember reading that one of the primary sources of error in Theology is the desire to say something new.

    "There is nothing new under the sun" (Ecclesiastes 1:9 ESV) Week One - Introduction When I chose to become a follower of Jesus, I had a voracious appetite for knowledge about Him, as well as a deep desire to grow in intimacy with Him. I would read everything about Jesus I could get my ...read more

    No Sleepwalking Allowed Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Nov 28, 2023
     | 1,151 views

    Sleepwalking is a dangerous practice, because those who practice it are unconscious, unaware of the dangers around them. In the same way, spiritual sleepwalking is dangerous, but moreso, because those who casually sleepwalk their way through life, expose themselves to deadly deceptions.

    Has anyone here ever been afflicted with somnambulism? Okay, does anyone even know what somnambulism is? Well, it's a technical term for sleepwalking. So, back to the original question--has anyone here ever had a sleepwalking experience? How did it go? Did anyone get hurt? The reason I ...read more
