    Trust And Obey(1 Of 2)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 22, 2022
     | 3,366 views

    The Rev. Billy Graham tells of a time early in his ministry when he arrived in a small town to preach a sermon. Desiring to mail a letter, he asked a young boy where the post office was.

    When the boy had told him, Dr. Graham thanked him and said, "If you'll come to the Church meeting this evening, you can hear me telling everyone how to get to Heaven." The boy said to Dr. Graham, I do not think I'll be there. If you do not know the way to the post office, how are ...read more

    The Little Man With A Big Need

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 22, 2022
     | 3,038 views

    This is a popular text with preachers, and I have heard several intriguing titles for it besides the one I am using today.

    Here are some of them that I recall: • A man who went out on a limb for Jesus • The Salvation of Shorty the Racketeer • The Short Scoundrel that Seriously Sought The Saviour • Seeking the True Vine By Sitting In A Tall tree Any of these titles would be appropriate for this sermon, but I have ...read more

    The Danger Of Spiritual Highs

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 25, 2022
     | 2,678 views

    The life of Elijah teaches us many valuable lessons. One of the lessons it teaches us is that some of our most trying times come after a SPIRITUAL HIGH in our life.

    For example, Elijah had just had two of his greatest victories: • All alone, he has just confronted a cult, and had 450 of their prophets on Mount Carmel killed. • God had just used him through prayer, to bring rain after three years of drought. He was on a SPIRITUAL HIGH, he was on a roll, and ...read more

    Two Kinds Of Appearances

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 25, 2022
     | 2,613 views

    For many today, life is all about appearances. We live in an age where people want to APPEAR one way but the reality is the opposite of their appearance.

    Illus: During the Oscars in Hollywood in 2004, the actors and actresses tried to give the impression that they cared about poverty. Listen, if they really cared about the poor as they pretend to care, instead of buying those dresses that some of the actresses paid hundreds of thousands of dollars ...read more

    Recently we have been hearing on the news about some of the Christmas shopping that has been taking place.

    Illus: For example, it is reported that the biggest day of the shopping year takes place on what is called Black Friday - the day after Thanksgiving when the stores open up at midnight. Some shoppers, to prepare for this big event, go the day before to find where the merchandise they want is ...read more

    A college boy was explaining the reason he flunked out in college was because he had a clinker in his thinker.

    Did you know that about ninety-nine-and-nine-tenths of the problems that confront people is because they have that same problem--they have a clinker in their thinkers? We laugh this off as not being important, but God sees the way people think as being very important. Illus: We see this in the ...read more

    Agape Love

     | 3,433 views

    Have you ever wondered why God is so good to lost people when they do not reciprocate in their feelings toward Him?

    Illus: Perhaps the answer can be illustrated by the story of the little girl who went to her mother to show her some fruit her friend gave her. The mother said, “Your friend has been very kind.” “Yes,” said the child, “She gave me more; but I gave some away.” When her mother asked who she gave ...read more

    The Ultimate Scapegoat

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 29, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,446 views

    What was the Scapegoat, and can it's function somehow be applied to Jesus? Christ made a one-time sacrifice and atonement to cover all sins. There is no more need for a scapegoat, as the Lamb of God became the final sin offering.

    I want to begin our sermon this morning by asking if you’ve ever before heard the word “scapegoat.” This term was coined by William Tyndale, the first great English Bible translator, who I will discuss a little further later on in our message. After Tyndale, the word came to be used for a person, ...read more

    Children You Are Being Duped

     | 1,869 views

    Our primary task as parents is to prepare our sons and daughters to walk according to God’s plan, God’s will, and God’s purpose for their lives. Failure to raise our kids under a purpose and a plan reaps serious consequences.

    Ephesians 6:10-17 10Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. 12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this ...read more

    God Is A God Of Goodness

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 30, 2022
     | 4,511 views

    Any time people are special in our lives, we want to tell others about them.

    This is why we Christians tell others about the GOD OF THE BIBLE AND HIS LOVE AND GOODNESS. The reason some do not talk more about the God of the Bible than they do is because they really do not know Him well enough to talk about Him!

    We who are gathered here today are blessed people. There were a lot of people that were hoping they would be living to face another year, but their time on earth came to an end.

    There were a lot of people that were hoping they would be living to face another year, but their time on earth came to an end. This is a very special time in our life. As we look at another year, some of us may not be here for the next 365 days. Who might these be: • It could be the healthiest ...read more

    The Power, The Blessings, And The Benefits Of Just Showing Up

    Contributed by Joshua Blackmon on Dec 23, 2020
     | 8,795 views

    There is a power in just being present. We miss many of God's greatest blessings when we decide to sit the game of life or ministry out. Matthias is a great example of what can happen if we are present.

    The Power, The Blessings, & Benefits of Just Showing Up Introduction Baseball has been one of the favorite sports of Americans. Cal Ripkin, Jr. was a famous baseball player. He wrote a book titled "Just Show Up." In the book her wrote: Everyone has a 2,131. Ripkin ...read more

    All We Have Is A Prayer Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Dec 28, 2020
     | 3,014 views

    When you consider the sin of mankind and the tumult of the nations, what hope is there for sinful man. The truth is that all we have is a prayer--and it's enough when you pray as Daniel prayed.

    Pray to our only hope—an awesome loving God to Save us from our Sins Many of you know that I’m a fan of spectator sports. Each morning I generally have my devotions in two different places, in the Bible, and the sports page. As a sports fan, I’m familiar with mismatches—like when the #1 ...read more

    Burn The Ships!

    Are you ready to leave 2020 behind for good? As much as we'd like to cut COVID off and put it behind us, we won't be able to quite yet. But there are other things that we can break free from. But if we're going to do it the right way we'll need to burn the ships.

    BURN THE SHIPS As we get ready to go into 2021, I'm sure everyone is ready to leave 2020 behind for good. Unfortunately, 2021 doesn't look like it's going to be much of a fresh start; we're still dealing with COVID in a major way. So it looks like we won't be able to get rid of ...read more

    The Christmas That Wasn't Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Jan 1, 2021
     | 2,900 views

    The first Christmas was the Christmas that wasn't--at least in Jerusalem, the city that the Great King and Messiah came to save, and to rule from. Pagan visitors from far away had to tell them of the great thing that had happened in their midst.

    Back in November, Jeanie and I received a newsletter from an organization called SAT-7. SAT, I assume stands for satellite, because that is the means by which they broadcast the Gospel via television programs into Muslim dominated countries in the Middle East. SAT-7 is the largest provider of ...read more
