Israel Inherits Promises Of Old (3 Of 3) Series

Contributed by Eddie Snipes on Sep 2, 2002

Part 3 of 3 Many claim that the church is now Israel. After examining the scriptures, we cannot draw that conclusion without denying the accuracy of the Bible. This section looks at the promised and fulfilled inheritance of Israel.

Israel Inherits Promises of Old (Part 3 of 3) For every curse against the sin of Israel, God follows it with a promise if they repent. It is frequently claimed that once Israel rejected Jesus as their Messiah that God cut Israel out of His plan. From this point of rejection, those who believe this ...read more

Subject To One Another Series

Contributed by Clark Tanner on Nov 16, 2000

An incomprehensive study of the 'one another' verses. Part 4

The Transforming Gospel

Contributed by Owen Bourgaize on Mar 10, 2001

Paul makes a special plea to his friend Philemon concerning his run-away slave but now a Christian, showing how the gospel transforms all relationships.

THE TRANSFORMING GOSPEL Letter writing is almost a lost art. We’d rather pick up the phone or dash off an e-mail but I’m glad that Paul used pen and ink. Doubtless Paul, being a man of letters and bubbling over with ideas for the spread of the gospel, must have written many ...read more

Moses - The Reluctant Hero Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Jul 27, 2005

Most of the time we think of spiritual giants just itching to do God’s work. Moses was actually very reluctant to answer God’s call. This gives us ordinary folks hope. God takes us - whatever we have in our hand - and uses it for His glory.

What are you like when God calls you? Do you actively listen for His voice then jump at the chance to obey? Or are you just kind of going along, doing your job, minding your own business and when God calls you might reluctantly go along if He twists your arm enough? You might think that a ...read more

Worship - Part 1 Series

Contributed by Warren Lamb on Jun 3, 2006

True worship is a total giving over of oneself in every aspect of our life to God. Our life is to be seasoned with worship, but what is it and what does it accomplish? What is my part and what is God’s?
