    Contributed by Derek Geldart on Sep 25, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,653 views

    What fuels a person to learn more about the truth concerning God and how one puts His righteous decrees into practice are the fruits by which one can discern what kind of wisdom one has obtained, earthly or heavenly!

    Riffraff Revival

    Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on Oct 16, 2023
     | 954 views

    God never called the rich celebrity pastors for His true work. It is the riffraff pastors and saints that will bring the next great revival. Men like the 8th grade shoe salesman, D. L. Moody or Crazy Lorenzo Dow.

    1 Cor 1:26 For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called: 27 But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are ...read more

    When we find ourselves in a position where we disagree with other Christians, it’s good to remember that God has given us room to disagree but not condemn and help for how to handle our differing opinions.

    Opening illustration: When students from Southeast Asia met a teacher from North America, the visiting instructor learned a lesson. After giving his class their first multiple-choice test, he was surprised to find many questions left unanswered. While handing back the corrected papers, he suggested ...read more

    Because we become like the people we spend the most time with, it is very important to choose wisely who our closest friends will be. Whoever walks with the wise becomes wise.

     | 8,253 views

    We have a story of the beauty and the beast and how the heroine saves her family from destruction because of the beast’s rude and foolish ways. Our heroine is a courageous woman of faith who steps in to prevent a massacre at the risk of her own life.

    Theme: Unsung Heroes Video: What is courage from bluefishtv.com. Quote on courage: Courage looks different than many people think today. The most courageous people in the world are ones who never pick up a weapon or those who choose to lay their weapons down. The kingdom of God is looking for ...read more

     | 1,808 views

    Jesus talks about two kinds of people, those who are wise and those who are foolish. those who are going after religion and those who desire to have a personal relationship with Him.

     | 3,311 views

    God tells us how depressed Job was; how should we deal with depression?

    Please open your bibles to the Book of Job…… We have noted so far that Job was a godly man who was enjoying life with family and all his possessions. But the devil Satan challenged God to see how Job will respond to God once much of his possessions and family are taken away and his entire body was ...read more

     | 9,447 views

    This passage applies to all people. Whether we make our living in construction or not, we are all builders. Each day we live we are building something that will one day be evaluated by the Master Builder.

    The Two Builders Matthew 7: 24-27 We have come to the conclusion of the longest recorded message in Scripture our Lord preached: The Sermon on the Mount. It has been an insightful journey; much of what we have considered has been very familiar to us, but it has been challenging as well. The ...read more

    Manifestation Of Glory Series

    Contributed by Matthew Kratz on Jun 9, 2022
     | 1,314 views

    The rejection of God’s Manifestation of Glory is seen through 1) Humanity’s Rationalization (Romans 1:22), and 2) Humanity’s Religion (Romans 1:23).

    Romans 1:22–23. 22 Claiming to be wise, they became fools, 23 and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal man and birds and animals and creeping things.

    Disgrace Of A Hanging

    Contributed by Phillip Smith on Aug 13, 2022
     | 1,459 views

    There is no other disgraceful form of death than to be sentenced to death by hanging on a pole, by a tree or any other device to suspend a person between heaven and earth. Our Lord died in that manner. Jesus knew the type of shameful form of death he must endure; yet he went to the hanging anyway.

    On March 18, 1875, President Ulysses S. Grant nominated Judge Isaac C. Parker to hold the bench of the U.S. Court for the Western District of Arkansas. On May 4th, at the age of 36, Isaac arrived in Fort Smith, AR and held his first court on the 10th. He held that position for 21 years. He soon was ...read more

    The Perception Of God’s Plan - Foolishness Of God

    Contributed by Rodney Kelley on Sep 14, 2010
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,071 views

    God's plan of Redemption for man seems like foolishness to the lost man but makes sense to the believer.

    Intro: In our text there is a statement that should make us stop in our tracks. For the novice in Scripture or a skeptic, that statement could be misunderstood. In context it is clear. The Bible is not saying God is foolish, but that the most simple thought of God is greater than the greatest ...read more

     | 6,376 views

    Worrying causes us to make foolish decisions. Foolish decisions result in painful consequences. Painful consequences rob us of our faith.

    Matthew 6:25-34 "Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear.
