    Faith’s Response To The Word For Optimal Profit

    Contributed by James Awosina on Jul 2, 2019
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,326 views

    To profit from the Word requires an action of faith. Reading, hearing and receiving the Word passively and superficially is of no profit to a person.

    FAITH’S RESPONSE TO THE WORD FOR OPTIMAL PROFIT Hebrews 4:2 “For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it” “The Word preached did not profit them…” What a fearful declaration!

    Walking By Faith Part 2: Faith That Overcomes Series

    Contributed by Dwight Davis on Aug 18, 2023
     | 1,499 views

    How can true, Biblical faith help us, to not only "survive" this life in a sin-saturated world, but to thrive?

    Faith that Overcomes One of the points I tried to make especially clear in part one of this message is that the enemy of our souls is trying his best to persuade us to neglect or even abandon our faith in God. And, unfortunately, he’s been quite successful—especially so in the last decade or so. ...read more

    Abraham’s Faith, God’s Faithfulness

    Contributed by Barnabas Park on Oct 31, 2025
     | 236 views

    Abraham trusted God’s promises despite doubt, fear, and impossibility—and how, like Abraham, we are justified not by our works but by God’s faithfulness. It reminds us that salvation and blessing are gifts of grace, not achievements of human effort.

    “What then shall we say that Abraham, our forefather according to the flesh, discovered in this matter? If Abraham was justified by works, he would have something to boast about—but not before God. What does the Scripture say? ‘Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness.’” ...read more

    The rich man prided himself on his intelligence, his success, his efficiency and foresight. He had plans to ensure his comfort for years. But God calls him a ’fool’.

    The Rich Fool Luke 12:13-34 Jesus is preaching mainly about the Pharisees (see 11 :37, 45;12:1).

While Jesus is preaching, the man is thinking about a family quarrel in which his brother ...read more
