The Freedom Cycle Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Jun 9, 2021

Independence Day: The average age of all great civilizations is 200 years. Alexander Taylor says they all went through a sequence that he calls “The Cycle of Freedom,” which is a process that can be observed in the Bible.

Eleanor Roosevelt said, “Freedom makes a huge requirement of every human being. With freedom comes responsibility. For the person who is unwilling to grow up, the person who does not want to carry his own weight, this is a frightening prospect.”(1) The responsibility of which she spoke is a ...read more

It’s easy to start a Bible study; to start going back to church, to start a daily prayer time; the thing we must focus on is being faithful.

Intro: In a church in the Deep South where the preaching style was a “talk back” sort of style. The pastor was getting the congregation exited about their prospective future.

The Church - A Lighthouse

Contributed by Troy Harkey on Apr 16, 2003

I have had many supporting churches, as a missionary, that the word “lighthouse” was a part of their name. The Bible makes it very clear that we as a church body are to be a lighthouse to the world.

THE CHURCH – A LIGHTHOUSE This will be our final message in this series on the church. (Mark 16:15 NKJV) And He said to them, "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. (Mat 5:14-16 NKJV) "You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. {15} ...read more

Creation does this by SHOWCASING what is special about God. 3. We cannot develop God’s special qualities, because they are already perfect. All ...read more

Living By Faith

Contributed by Paul George on May 27, 2003

Faith is one of the most ambiguous words in the Christian vocabulary. True Christian faith is not only to believe that the Bible is true, but also have a sure trust in Jesus Christ.

The author of the Letters to the Hebrews wrote, "Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen" (Hebrews 11:1). If we beleive this it should have an influence on our reaction toward the Lord when His will is not our will. How do we react when events happen in ...read more

Faith And Fear

Contributed by Don Baggett on Nov 30, 2007

The opposite of faith is fear. Fear is the fruit of unbelief, and it opens the door of your life to the devil. Sixty three times in the Bible, the Lord used the phrase, “Fear not.”

Faith opens the door of your life to God. Ephesians 2:8 says that our salvation is comes by God’s grace, through our faith. No one could honestly study the ministry of Jesus upon this earth and miss the fact that He honored people’s faith. Hebrews 13:5 says, “Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, ...read more
