Thaddaeus Jude Series

Contributed by Kevin Landis on Sep 20, 2007

Disciple Jude

An amazing thing about studying the disciples, most of them we have very little information. Due to language variations and backgrounds of the gospel writers, some of the names are different in various gospels. Thaddaeus is one of those individuals. Matthew 10:3 says this disciple is “Lebbaeus, ...read more

A look at the Ninth Commandment in a Woke World

In this information age, people know more things yet believe less. The world has lost the concept of absolute truth and information is not a substitute.

Rapture- True Or False? What Will Happen At The Lord's Second Coming

Contributed by Robert Webb on Feb 3, 2025

There is cause for reservation about the popular conception of the rapture, especially in regard to the time element and manner in which it is commonly believed it will take place.

The rapture is an intriguing subject and at the forefront of much thought. What is it? This is the teaching that the church will be "caught up" or raptured in the clouds with Jesus and the resurrected believers and be with the Lord forever. That much is taught very plainly in 1 ...read more

Lessons From The Seven Churches

Contributed by Jeff Hagan on Apr 28, 2022

Revelation was written to seven specific churches at a specific time in a specific place for a specific reason. However, what lessons can we learn from this valuable book of the bible?

1. Ephesus: The Ephesian church is commended for its works—the preaching, perseverance and serving by the early disciples (Revelation 2:1–3). Even they had to discern between false teachers and teachers of the Truth. However, the church was told that "you have left your first love" ...read more

Get A Grip!

Contributed by Russell Brownworth on Aug 15, 2002

A false view of God leads to a false way of living. We need to get a grip on a genuine view of God.

August 18, 2002 There are so many false religions in the world. By far, the reason for such a phenomenon is the human problem of ignoring God’s owner’s manual -- The Bible. Without the Bible we don’t know how God views us, and we don’t know truth about how we are to view God. It is important to ...read more

What's A Preacher To Do? Series

Contributed by David Owens on Jun 20, 2022

After Paul's customary, brief introduction, he moved right into the challenges facing Timothy in his ministry in Ephesus. We can distill Paul's advice to Timothy down into four directives.

Introduction: A. Ministry can be a challenge for ministers and for members – How’s that for an understatement? B. But imagine seeing this “want ad” for a preacher: 1. “Must have experience as a shepherd, CEO, office manager, educator, salesman, diplomat, referee, writer, theologian, politician, ...read more

How Are We To Know The Truth?

Contributed by Chris Swanson on Jan 9, 2023

The emphasis of Second John chapter 2 is on the basics of following Christ, of truth and love, and to warn against false teachers. We are not to just read the Word of God, but we are to obey it as well.

When a believer knows how to walk in the truth, he or she should know how to act, should know what to do, is willing to learn, and is determined to do so. In verses 1-3: The “elder” is John, one of twelve disciples. He also is the author of the Gospel of John, the three epistles, and the book of ...read more

Preaching - The Danger Of Plagiarism

Contributed by Robert Sickler on Mar 22, 2012

Preachers who habitually plagiarize other men's sermons are in danger of preaching outside of the Will of God.

THE POTENTIAL PROBLEM The Wall Street Journal printed an article entitled: That Sermon You Heard on Sunday May Be From the Web; November 15, 2006; Page A1. Although the article seemed to focus on the ethics of plagiarism, what I found most disturbing was the allegation that many preachers ...read more
