Saddam And The Prince Of Persia

Contributed by Paul Wallace on Mar 31, 2003

What does the Bible have to say about Iraq? You might be surprized to find that the Bible is filled with references to Iraq, from Genesis to Revelation. There is a pattern that can be seen as far back as 820 BC. The spiritual forces there are continuing

"before Religion" Series

Contributed by Perry Fowler on Sep 13, 2023

Genesis 1:1. It is said that if you can get through the first verse of the Bible, you can read and believe the rest. Do you believe in God? If so, why? How do I know God exists?

One of the simplest stories in the Bible seems to be one of the hardest stories for some to believe. One of the famous men that doubted the Biblical creation story was a man named Charles Darwin, who died in April of 1882. Through Darwin’s studies he determined that man was not created by God, as ...read more

Sermon # 45 - The Two Sons Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Aug 20, 2025

Abraham had two sons, one born according to the flesh and the other according to God’s promise. Both of them were in complete contrast to each other. It is not enough if we are born according to the flesh, because the Lord demands that we are born again through the Holy Spirit.

For today’s meditation we will look at Galatians 4:22-23, “Scripture says that Abraham had two sons, one by a woman who was a slave and the other by a free woman. Now, the son of the slave woman was conceived in a natural way, but the son of the free woman was conceived through a promise [made to ...read more
