    based on 94 ratings

    Aaron: ‘We melted gold...and there came out this calf.’ That’s got to be the all time lamest excuse from an assistant Pastor! Before Moses even returned with the commandments the people were breaking them. Link inc. to text, audio, PowerPoint.

    The Day Moses Broke All 10 Commandments Exodus 32:1-26 http://gbcdecatur.org/sermons/DayMosesBroke.html Exodus 32:19 And it came to pass, as soon as he came nigh unto the camp, that he saw the calf, and the dancing: and Moses’ anger waxed hot, and he cast the tables out of his hands, and brake ...read more

    Busy About The Wrong Thing

    Given a man to keep, he had lost the man. And he had lost him because he was too busy to keep him. Evidently the servant considered that an excuse. Had he been idle, then indeed the loss of the man would have been an unpardonable offence.

    Busy about the Wrong Thing I Kings 20:40 And as thy servant was busy here and there, he was gone. The text is part of a little parable, spoken by an unnamed prophet to King Ahab. I Kings 20:39 (KJV) And as the king passed by, he cried unto the king: and he said, Thy servant went out into the ...read more

    This the the sixth message in the "Survivor" series. This message talks about how the God said, "My people are destroyed for a lack of knowledge." What you don't know can hurt you. Ignorance is never an excuse. If you don't believe it, ask the IRS.

    SURVIVOR SERIES #6 – SURVIVING THROUGH KNOWLEDGE This morning, we are continuing with our theme of SURVIVOR And what we’ve been doing over the last few weeks is we’ve been talking about the fact that in times like these, with… --bail outs --lay offs --budget cuts We ...read more

    If That's The Way Christians Act, I Want Nothing To Do With Their God!

     | 1,694 views

    Lost people often use our failure to live as we ought to justify their rejection of Christ. While we cannot excuse them, we must know that we do offend. Therefore, we require grace to honour God and to avoid giving offence to the lost.

    “Beloved, I urge you as sojourners and exiles to abstain from the passions of the flesh, which wage war against your soul. Keep your conduct among the Gentiles honorable, so that when they speak against you as evildoers, they may see your good deeds and glorify God on the day of visitation.” ...read more

    The Old Testament stateman Nehemiah heard of the difficulties that his fellow Jews were having in rebuilding Jerusalem and the Temple after the time of exile in Babylon. His plans and burdens were brought before the LORD and were answered. So, what's our excuse?

    The Old Testament story of Nehemiah presents his account of life and service in the royal court of the Persian Emperor Artaxerxes around 445-444 B.C., and how, upon hearing of the plight of his fellow Jews as they were in the process of rebuilding Jerusalem along with a new Temple for the ...read more

    Rev. 6 shows us the effect on mankind as they see Christ's 2nd coming. They are all seized with remorse for their sins and terror at the expected judgment. We'll also face Christ in all His power & glory. No excuses for disobedience will be accepted.

    SEEK THE REFUGE Revelation 6 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: GAS SHORTAGE It was the start of a holiday weekend and the last "full-service" gas station was crowded. Finally the attendant hustled up to the local minister who had been waiting in line some time. "I'm sorry for the delay, ...read more

     | 765 views

    Paul exposes the guilty hypocrite, examines the kindness of God, then speaks of the wrath of God against sin stored up on account. In these last days, men’s hearts are like concrete reinforced with tungsten steel. They do not want to repent.

    The Lord invited us to come and be part of His Kingdom, but the Lord also commissioned us to go into all the world and preach the good news. Read on to know what happens when we go out in obedience to God.

    We read in Judges 6:13-14, “Sir," Gideon replied, "if the LORD is with us, why has all this happened to us? And where are all the miracles our ancestors told us about? Didn't they say, 'The LORD brought us up out of Egypt'? But now the LORD has abandoned us and handed us over ...read more

    How Should I Act, Anyway?

    Contributed by Fred Sigle on Mar 15, 2007
    based on 5 ratings
     | 3,911 views

    How many times have we heard someone say as an excuse to the way they act, "That’s just the way I am and I can’t help it"? Christ is concerned with the way we act, and there are certain characteristics he wants us to develop in our lives.

    HOW SHOULD I ACT, ANYWAY? A. Have you been in an UNCOMFORTABLE situation where you didn’t know how to ACT? 1. Undoubtedly we all have at one time.

    The Wedding Banquet: Invitation, Ingratitude, And Indiscretion, Part 2

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 20, 2023
     | 848 views

    The original recipients of the invitation to the banquet (Matthew 22:1-7) refused to attend, giving flimsy excuses that resulted in their destruction (v.7). Who would attend the banquet now? Here is where we see the king's mercy extend to "the least of these".

    The Christian band Sidewalk Prophets wrote a song entitled, "Come to the Table", based on the Parable of the Wedding Banquet (Matthew 22:1-14) and the call of God for everyone regardless of their situation to come to the table and take place in the celebration. The Wedding Banquet is ...read more

    Jesus was faced with numerous unfair and unjust accusations and trials... and yet He never responded to those. Why was He silent, and what can that mean to us?
