    Why would the Wise Men travel so far, at such expense, and over dangerous roads? Jesus wasn't "their" King was He? And what can we learn from how they responded to Jesus wasn't they arrived?

    The Christian - The Judgement Seat Of Christ – Part 2 Of 3 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jun 27, 2025
     | 288 views

    Above all things God wants faithfulness. Rewards attach to a faithful servant. God is a God of small things and in quietness and confidence is our strength. We look at the quality of works and the testing by fire. To not make the mistake of “TRYING to do” for a reward as that is wrong.

    THE CHRISTIAN - THE JUDGEMENT SEAT OF CHRIST – PART 2 OF 3 In the last study we opened up this subject to see both the joy and seriousness of it. This time we will consider more aspects of The Judgement Seat of Christ including what brings reward and the quality of deeds done for Christ. I will ...read more

     | 9,058 views

    The Galatians were clothed with Christ, but they'd been convinced that Jesus wasn't enough. Someone had told them they needed to follow rules and laws to be acceptable to God. Why was that false?

    OPEN: Jesus told a parable about KING who invited everybody to his son’s wedding. Now, I’ve been told that the custom of the day was for the host to supply his guests with appropriate wedding garments, but Matthew 22:11 tells us “when the king came in to look at the guests, he saw there a man who ...read more

     | 48,435 views

    Greed is listed as one of the worst of sins - right up there with lewdness, adultery, and murder. But how likely am "I" to be plagued by greed? And how can God cure me of this terrible sin?

    Back in the 1800’s there was once a 350# wrestler in Europe named “Yusuf, the terrible Turk.” Three hundred and fifty pounds is a fairly huge man, and there wasn’t an ounce of flab on the man. He was formidable. And in his four years in Europe, he was impossible to beat, ...read more

    The cornerstone of Christian worship is The Lord's Supper. But sometimes this foundational part of church is buried by other stuff. What could bury Communion and how can we avoid that danger?

It was made of pure white marble weighing 24,500 pounds and had been dragged through the streets of Washington from the railroad station to the site.
