Instant Idolatry Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 22, 2021

This incident in Babylon shows us that Christians are justified in getting involved in politics, but also in resisting a government that compels obedience to what is contrary to the will of God.

Alfred North Whitehead said, "The key note of idolatry is contentment with the prevalent gods." Nebuchadnezzar, as we saw in the conclusion of chapter 2, had been convinced that Jehovah was the God of gods. Even after this, however, he did not feel compelled to forsake his lesser gods. ...read more

The Power Of Confessing Sins

Contributed by Susan Mende on Jul 9, 2018

We don’t take responsibility for the mistakes that we make, but we learn to justify our mistakes by blaming something or someone else. But there is power in confessing our sins!

Icebreaker: A teacher asks a little boy as to why he was late to school. He replies that his mother served the breakfast late.

Isaac: The Child Of The Promise Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on May 30, 2022

Isaac is portrayed throughout his life as a man of faith like his father. When we read the account of Mount Moriah we do not specifically read the reaction of Isaac. But we get the idea. If Abraham is trusting God with this, then so would his son Isaac.

Abraham was a man of faith. God spoke to Abraham on numerous occasions. Five times in Genesis records Abraham building an altar to God. The Altar at Bethel The LORD appeared to Abram and said, “To your offspring I will give this land.” So he built an altar there to the LORD, who had appeared to ...read more

David And God's Righeousnes Series

"Who Is God?"

Contributed by Clark Tanner on May 16, 2003

A systematic devotional study

When I was a boy I remember my father describing the God he grew up with.

Not long ago I saw a list of responses a class of children ...read more

Lesson 4: Don't Trust Your Mind - Trust God's Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Oct 4, 2010

The mind is one of the most amazing and most dangerous things we possess. It is incredibly creative, self-justifying and horribly deceiving and sick. So Paul tells us when it comes understanding God, using our minds only will never get us there.

Cross Purposes 3: Mercy And Justice Series

Contributed by Vic Folkert on Dec 13, 2019

Why can't God ignore or excuse sin? Sacrifice of atonement (OT background). Righteousness through faith. God is "just and the one who justifies those who have faith in Jesus."

CROSS PURPOSES 3: Mercy and Justice Crosses are everywhere: Hanging on chains around people’s necks. Tattooed on people’s bodies. Surrounded by artificial flowers along the side of the road, where an accidental death occurred. Lined up in cemeteries, or on grave markers. Towering over churches, ...read more
