The Danger Of Following God With Human Wisdom

Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Aug 5, 2025

God is not seeking experts; He is seeking the obedient. Following Him requires that we crucify our natural wisdom and embrace divine instruction. There is danger in depending on human intelligence to navigate spiritual assignments. Such a path leads to error, frustration, and loss.

THE DANGER OF FOLLOWING GOD WITH HUMAN WISDOM By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: 1 Corinthians 1:18-25 “For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God…” (1 Corinthians 1:18) Supporting Texts: Proverbs 3:5-7, Romans 8:6-8, ...read more

Contributed by Paul Dayao on Jan 7, 2026

Based on King David's testimony in Psalm 32, this sermon charts the spiritual journey from the crushing "agony" of unconfessed sin to the liberating "alleluia" of divine forgiveness found through honest confession.

Introduction: The Heaviest Burden My dear brothers and sisters in Christ, what is the heaviest thing you have ever carried?

Contributed by Dr. Bradford Reaves on Aug 27, 2025

The God Who Saves And The Soul That Waits (Part 4) Series

Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Feb 13, 2026

David’s prayer from the middle of disorientation. He is not writing from a throne but from tension — enemies around him, guilt within him, decisions before him. He is a man who needs direction, clarity, and divine intervention.

TAGLINE: Clarity is born where God’s saving character meets our surrendered waiting. OPENING ILLUSTRATION: A climber once set out to scale a mountain known for its unpredictable fog. The path was narrow, the cliffs steep, and visibility often dropped to just a few feet. Because of this, every ...read more

Contributed by Steve Klein on Feb 23, 2026

The concept of propitiation is the providing of a sacrifice or payment to appease God for having violated His law – to satisfy the Divine sense of justice and God’s wrath. A propitiation then is what enables sinful humans to have peace with God (and each other).

"The Argument Of Authenticity" Series

Contributed by Keith Bunch on Mar 8, 2003

We are confronted with the same group of false apostles as Paul was in his day : Those who seek to dispute the Inerrancy, Infallibility, and Divine Inspiration of the Holy Scriptures; and in so doing, seek to lead us away from the Truth of God’s Word

PAUL’S CERTIFICATION. (Vv. 11-12) As Paul defended his apostleship in (v. 1), he now defends his message. Paul says that the Gospel he preaches is not intended to please men (tickle ears), nor is it of human origin. It could not be of man because it did not come to him from a man, but from a ...read more
