The Peril Of False Prophets (Part 1) Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Apr 13, 2022

Satan doesn’t mind the church gathering together as long as we don’t share the truth of the gospel. He doesn’t mind preaching as long as it doesn’t reveal the depravity of humanity and the salvation available through Christ our Lord.

The Peril of False Prophets (Part 1) Matthew 7: 15-20 As I studied this passage, I was reminded of the relevance of Scripture for every generation. 2 Tim.3:16 – All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in ...read more

He Taught Them Many Parables… (The Rich Man And Lazarus) # 18

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 14, 2022

This parable is different from most parables because it conveys to us a number of vivid contrasts, such as:

• Riches and Poverty • Heaven and Hell • Compassion and Indifference • Inclusion and Exclusion As we teach this parable, I need to mention that there are some who refuse to teach Luke 16:19-31 as a parable. Their objection is for two reasons: (1) It is the only one of the parables in which ...read more

The Book Of Revelation (Revelation 16)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 20, 2022

John now describes the vial judgments that come from God on a world that is worshiping Satan as God.

As strange as the judgments appear, these are actual events that happen on the earth just prior to the return of Jesus to set up the Kingdom of God on earth. It is believed these vial judgments probably begin about 6 months before His coming. I believe the judgments span the last 6 months or so ...read more

Faithful Until Death

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 29, 2022

Notice the condition on which this promise is made. The Lord said, if we are faithful unto death, He would give us a CROWN OF LIFE.

He did NOT say, “If you are faithful a few short years I will give thee a Crown of Life”. There are times the devil tells us that as Christians, we are wasting our lives serving the Lord. But I can assure you, based on the Word of God, that we are doing the smartest thing a person can do with our ...read more
