The Crown Jewel Of Bible Prophecy (Isaiah 52:13-53:12)

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jun 7, 2024

The fifty-third chapter of the book of Isaiah is one of the clearest pictures of the person and mission of God's Servant, the Promised Messiah. It is often referred to as "The other gospel".

"BEHOLD, My Servant shall deal prudently. He shall be exalted and extolled and be very high. Just as many were astonished at you, so His visage was marred more than any man, and His form more than the sons of men, so shall He sprinkle many nations. Kings will shut their mouths at Him, for what ...read more

The Lord’s Supper (Luke, Part 11) Series

Contributed by T.j. Conwell on Apr 4, 2022

The communion, the covenant, the denial, the sifting, the charge, all of these things pointed to Jesus fulfilling His ultimate purpose (to die for us), and the focus of the disciples was still on earthly things. Will we see the lesson Jesus was teaching and apply it to our lives?

Worship 6 Series

Contributed by Clyde White on Sep 14, 2005

Our unique relationship within the Body of Christ, is SO different that it is nearly impossible, through natural logic, to comprehend. We are “fellow” workers WITH God in His field and on His building, and field.

We have been looking at the subject of "Service after Worship", and it might better be titled "Service AND Worship". The two subjects CANNOT be separated. If you experience true worship, you WILL be available for service, and if you are engaged in true Biblical service, it will be as a result of ...read more

Already Branded

Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on Nov 21, 2020

Madison Avenue is not what God uses to build His Church. He has branded His own. He does not need us to market Him, but we may get to bear His marks as He leads us into His image.

Are you looking to brand and market your church? If you are truly a church founded by a call of God and a move of the Holy Spirit you are already branded by the blood of Jesus Christ and if the Spirit is moving in your people you need no marketing plan as He will draw people to where He is ...read more
