    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 10, 2022
     | 1,073 views

    In the first sermon it was mentioned that in order to understand the books of 1, 2, and 3 John, we first needed to understand some things about the place John wrote from, Ephesus.

They were second and third generation Christians. Their parents and grandparents had been in the ...read more

    The Word of God present Jesus as the Prince of Peace. His peace is enjoyed by those who based their faith off that truth.

    A Christmas Peace Christians depend upon the truths found in the Word of God and in the forgiveness that is given in Jesus’ name, this brings them a great peace.

    A Heart That Devises Wicked Imaginations

    Contributed by James Dina on Jul 31, 2020

     | 9,307 views

    The intention of man’s heart is evil from his youth. The human heart is basically wicked, deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it? Keep your heart with all diligence, for out of it spring the issues of life.

     | 1,826 views

    1 John is called one of the “General Epistles,” because it was not sent to a specific church. Rather, it was sent to churches in general.

    The three books of John are referred to as “letters, however, the first was not written in the form of a letter. For example, it has no salutation nor conclusion. In fact, it has all the characteristics of a sermon in which a pastor is revealing his love for God’s people. To have a good ...read more
