    Most of us at times have looked at someone we thought was attractive physically, and thought we certainly would like to look like them if we could.

    Sometimes this is the motivation for some to: (1) DIET EACH DAY Illus: Much has been said about diets, such as: • It's something most of us do religiously: We eat what we want to eat, drink a diet coke and pray we don't gain weight • Someone else said that the problem with curbing our ...read more

    Ask And Seek The Right Thing! Knock At The Right Door! Series

    Contributed by Ken Henson on Jul 22, 2013
    based on 2 ratings
     | 6,078 views

    I've heard the exhortations to Ask, Seek and Knock in isolation from the Golden Rule. They are irrevocably connected. One concept leads to the other. Jesus points to the way God treats us in order to show us how treat each other.

    Matthew 7:7 “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. 8 For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened. The standard message on this passage is, we need to ask, and when we ask God ...read more

    "A Christian Response To War"

    Contributed by David Washburn on Mar 24, 2003
    based on 64 ratings
     | 4,165 views

    We’re called to take a Chritian stand and not a political stand when it comes to war? Should we support it or oppose it?

    “A Christian Response To War” Matthew 5:9 March 23, 2003 I’ve heard it said that one of the best ways to make God laugh is for us to make plans. I typically have my sermons planned in advance, which allows me to better focus my thoughts and coordinate worship, which probably made God chuckle this ...read more

    How do we buy into the lame excuses we offer without crumbling under the internal conflict we generate from living in ways that are contrary to what we say we believe? The truth is, it all comes down to the way we view the world – it comes down to what f

    The Just Society And Why Judas Was Judged Harshly

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Apr 9, 2022
     | 870 views

    Somehow it seems very strange to ask Judas about the virtue of justice.

    Monday of Holy Week I don’t understand why people these days feel like they have to defend Judas from the accusations that he was a thief and a jerk. He was a thief and a jerk. Today’s Gospel shows him accusing Jesus of sinning against the virtue of justice, by allowing an expensive ointment to ...read more

    Despite the independence to which Baptists hold, we seek to co-operate with fellow believers to the extend permitted by the Word.

    “Some men came down from Judea and were teaching the brothers, ‘Unless you are circumcised according to the custom of Moses, you cannot be saved.’ And after Paul and Barnabas had no small dissension and debate with them, Paul and Barnabas and some of the others were appointed to go up to Jerusalem ...read more
