Buying Your Own Ticket To Hell

Contributed by John Gaston on Jan 15, 2020

Nobody really wants to go to Hell. Its very name conveys the ideas of “dread” and “punishment.” As strange as it sounds, one man in Scripture did buy his own ticket to Hell. Possibly some of you are in the process of buying your own ticket there.

Satanic Success Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 24, 2021

The Christian must forget tradition and art, and build his concept of Satan on the only reliable source of information, and that is the Bible.

William Congreve said, “If I were a painter I would draw the devil like an idiot, a driveller with a bib and bells.” All I can say to that is that I am glad he is not a painter, for he would only serve the devil’s cause by painting him as a driveling idiot.

The Spirit Of Holy Warfare

Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Mar 27, 2021

Today, we consider holy warfare. For this I will direct you to a famous story that William Booth recounts, and is commonly referred to as “What will you do?”

At all risks and consequences, you must fight for God and the salvation of souls.” ...read more

Loving Jesus First

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 11, 2022

Martha was working in the kitchen to earn Jesus’ approval, while Mary was sitting in the living room listening to Him teach. But Jesus had no problem with Mary. Why? Because our love of Him must come before our service.

The living room intimacy Mary enjoyed with Jesus will never come out of the busyness of Martha’s kitchen. Busyness . . . breeds distraction. - Joanna Weaver(1) One time a counterfeit bill made it into circulation and no one knew it was fake for quite some time. It was spent hundreds of times on ...read more

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on May 31, 2022

Have you ever thought about why someone would attempt to burn down a church? Bomb a Church? Persecute Christians? Or Why the Gospel may cause an uproar? This gospel message is a disturbing message because it calls us to a lifestyle of love and self denial.
