    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on May 3, 2022
    based on 4 ratings
     | 2,563 views

    There have been numerous teaching surges of the "Rapture" and what happens at the return of Jesus over the last 50+ years that have brought confusion and fear.

    Most often, the teaching of a Pre/Mid tribulation ‘Rapture’ re-appears during times of world crisis, social upheaval, pandemics, war, rumors of war, etc., to help bring focus on the soon-coming return of Jesus, who will stop it all and set up His Kingdom on Earth for 1,000 years. The Second ...read more

    There Is One Baptism Series

    Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on May 8, 2023
     | 2,625 views

    Various churches have various teachings and various practices concerning baptism. But that does not mean that the Bible does not provide us with a good understanding of the will of God in the matter of baptism.

    Alba 5-7-2023 THERE IS ONE BAPTISM Ephesians 4:5 The story is told of a preacher who had just starting serving a new congregation. For eight Sundays in a row he preached about baptism. Finally, the chairman of the elders approached him and said, “Preacher, we get the point about baptism, and so ...read more

    The Sifting Of The Saints

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Feb 25, 2022
     | 6,985 views

    This passage of scripture has to do with the “sifting” of the saints. Before we can fully appreciate what this passage is teaching, we have to know something about sifting.

    Illus: Some of the older women in this congregation can remember when years ago they had a “sifter” in their kitchen. This was something they could hold with one hand, and use the other hand to turn a handle that rotated a wire wheel inside the sifter basket. As they prepared a meal for their ...read more

     | 2,371 views

    What does Scripture teach about divorce? Does God encourage divorce? Is divorce permissible for any reason? Jesus reveals much regarding these significant questions.

    A Word Concerning Divorce (Part 1) Matthew 5: 31-32 As we approach our text, I am reminded of the words of Dr. Alan Carr. “When you preach through books of the Bible one of the great blessings is that, sooner or later, you will preach on every subject imaginable.

     | 3,849 views

    This parable appears only in the Gospel of Matthew. The Lord Jesus would often take some unusual things and use those things to teach us a spiritual lesson.

    In this parable, He used WORK and WAGES to teach us a spiritual lesson. Illus: When it comes to labor and management, I think about the man who applied for a job. It went something like this: • Manager: "I'm sorry I can't hire you, but there isn't enough work to keep you ...read more

    The Power Of Discipleship Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Feb 4, 2022
     | 7,611 views

    Disciples are formed not informed. Jesus did not just teach the disciples. They learned in the situations like witnessing to the woman at the well. The impressions burned in their mind. This is the “Organic Discipleship” process.

    The gospels record many occasions when Jesus addressed large crowds. But when we take an overview of the Gospels we discover that his speaking to the large crowds is not what made the lasting impact. What carried the ministry of Jesus after his death was the time he invested with small ...read more

     | 2,073 views

    This little passage of scripture is loaded with wonderful teachings about the Lord Jesus Christ. Some believe it is one of the greatest passages in the Bible concerning the Lord Jesus Christ.

    It gives us a picture of the humility of Christ like we have never seen before. If the church today is ever going to accomplish anything for the Lord, we are going to have to know and possess the humility of Christ. Illus: Some of the New Testament Christians caught this vision.
