    What can we learn of God from the opening statement of the Bible?

    “In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.” [1] Great philosophers are distinguished by asking great questions, whereas the merely curious ask meaningless questions. For instance, some shallow individuals may ask what they imagine is a profound question, “Why is ...read more

    How can mankind account for the origin of the universe and of mankind? The message seeks to explore ideas that are current.

    “In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was without form and void, and darkness was over the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters.” [1] Is the universe twenty billion years old? Can we emphatically state that the ...read more

    The Beginning

    The preexistence of God and the plurality of His Persons. The order of Creation, and the presence of God's wisdom.

    THE BEGINNING. Genesis 1:1-31, Genesis 2:1-4a. "In the beginning God" implies that God existed before the beginning of time. No mere thing existed before the beginning, but only God. There is no duality, no struggle between equal forces of good and evil: just God. Yet we see God in ...read more

    Part 1 of 4 in an introductory series on the Holy Spirit, looking at who He is and how He works in our lives.

    INTRODUCTION: We've heard about the Holy Spirit. He flickers in and out of the Old Testament like a ghost. In the New Testament, He's the one who gives ordinary men the power of God. He appears throughout the ages as a wind, smoke, fire, and even a dove, but who or what exactly is the Holy ...read more

    Genesis; Answering The Skeptic Series

    Contributed by James Lee on Nov 14, 2014
     | 3,643 views

    The first 11 chapters of the Bible are unbelievable to the skeptic and If we can't explain chapters 1-11 of Genesis how will we ever get anyone to believe the rest of the Bible as truth? Learner notes are available

    This Bible study includes a handout for the learner and is designed to make us think about what we read in the first eleven chapters of Genesis. These chapters are so controversial that the skeptic can't get past them, in order to believe the rest of Scripture. [slide 1]The Bible begins clear ...read more

    Did God create everything in six literal days? __YES __NO __I’m not sure __How can we know? My NOTES Here’s the issue with many who answer with a loud and forceful YES! They truly don’t know how to explain their answer. How do we know that God created everything in 6 days ...read more

    Why are words of Genesis 1:1 the first verse in our Bible? And what can these words mean to us who trust in God for our hope and our salvation?

    (We opened with a youtube video featuring David Attenborough reciting the words to the famous Louis Armstrong song: “It’s a Wonderful World” for a BBC nature program commercial.

    If your life is empty, you should drink more water and have faith in God

    Read Genesis 1:1-5 I closed my eyes what do I see; darkness is everywhere. Suddenly, a light appeared in the midst. I wondered at him who caused this to happen. The bible says “let your eye be single less your whole body be full of darkness.” I knew that didn’t happen on its own, ...read more

    Alternate Theory Of Creation No. 3 - The "day/Age" Theory

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on May 24, 2023
     | 1,388 views

    Another theory of the creation of the universe in opposition to the record given in Genesis 1 is the "Day/Age" Theory, and like the previous two we looked at, has neither the science or Scriptural foundation to verify its claim.

    We have looked at two of four "theories of creation" used to explain our origins apart from what is clearly and unapologetically presented in the first chapter of Genesis. The first theory is known as "theistic evolution", which teaches that God used evolution as part of the ...read more

    Alternate Theory Of Creation No. 4 -Progressive Creationism

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on May 25, 2023
     | 1,279 views

    This is the last of four messages on the alternatives of creation often presented to skeptics and the scientific community apart from what is described in Genesis 1. This final message deals with "progressive creationism", another example of the futility of man's "wisdom".

    We have looked at four alternative theories that some Christians use to either defend or explain to a skeptical world how everything came into being instead of what is clearly presented in Genesis 1. The world system took advantage of our withdrawal from the scientific community soon after the ...read more

    This sermon takes a look at our foundation as Christians.

    ENGAGE: The gospel is the ultimate truth that brings us hope, peace, and salvation to all who believe in it. The teachings of false gospels or our own gospel may come in many different forms, but they all lead only to confusion, despair, hopelessness, and eternal separation from God. It gives us a ...read more
