    Lesson From Adam And Eve

    Contributed by Pastor Renji George on Jun 12, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,417 views

    Adam could have repented and come back to God. God gave him a chance to repent. But instead of admitting the fault he blamed his wife (Genes 3:12). If Adam had admitted the fault of disobedience to God, God would have forgiven him.

    God could have stopped Eve from sinning. Do you think God did not know when satan was entering the garden of Eden? Was God unaware of satan tempting His precious child Eve? The closing of Genesis 3 speaks about God keeping Cheru-bims to watch over the garden with a flaming sword (Genesis 3:24). ...read more

     | 2,010 views

    God’s desire is that we experience a fresh encounter with Him. But what does a fresh encounter look like? To answer this question let’s see what a fresh encounter with God looks like through Jesus’s letter to the Ephesian church and in the life of the prophet Isaiah.

    No Resurrection? How Does That Make Sense?

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Sep 17, 2024
     | 332 views

    It’s not clear what the back-story is for this claim, but it leads to one of Paul’s best little classes in logic. Perhaps there was a Sadducee-trained Jewish Christian in Corinth. They didn’t believe in any resurrection.

    Friday of the Twenty-Fourth Week in Course 2024 From the beginning of the Church way back in the first century Christians have been proclaiming and celebrating the physical Resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.

    There are at least seven things we can know about the Second Coming of our Lord, Jesus Christ found in I Thessalonians 4:13-18. And the apostle Paul, who wrote this letter, explains these things so that we will not be ignorant about them.

    The Great Exchange: Trading Worry For Worship

    Contributed by Paul Dayao on Sep 11, 2025
     | 322 views

    Exploring Jesus' timeless cure for anxiety, this sermon calls listeners to make the great exchange—trading the illogical, faithless burden of worry for a life of worship that seeks first the Kingdom of a Father who knows and provides for their every need.

    Introduction: The Tyranny of "What If?" Good morning, beloved. There is a quiet tyranny that seeks to rule our hearts. It is not an invading army or a foreign power. It is a voice in our own minds, and its weapon is two simple words: "What if?" It is the tyrant that wakes you at ...read more
