    The B-I-B-L-E

    Contributed by Michael Blitz on Dec 6, 2025
     | 121 views

    On Bible Sunday, we celebrate God’s Word as living, active, and true—a source of comfort, courage, and eternal hope that has withstood every test of time. Discover why the Bible is more than a book—it’s God’s personal letter to us.

    Good MORNING, and Happy Bible Sunday. As I begin, I’ll acknowledge something we all know but rarely say out loud: there is a reason that the Bible has very thin, see through pages, and that’s because it is a really, really big book, and would probably weigh twice as much if it was printed on ...read more

    Spiritual Weapons For Obeying Christ PRO Sermon

    based on 3 ratings
     | 98 views

    True victory in life’s battles comes through prayer and relying on God’s spiritual weapons, surrendering every thought to Christ rather than fighting in our own strength.

    Some battles thunder. Others whisper. Some arrive like a storm front on the horizon. Others slip in through the crack beneath the door, like worry, like weariness, like the what-ifs that wake us at 2:13 a.m. You know those skirmishes, don’t you? The ones between your ears and behind your ribs. The ...read more

    In order to live as citizens of heaven on this earth, we must give back to the government the things that belong to it (i.e., taxes), and give ourselves wholeheartedly to the Lord, knowing Him and loving Him with the totality of our being.

    In the summer of 2004, Warren Beamer, a missionary from San Antonio, Texas, visited an orphanage in Nigeria.

    Division has been Satan’s primary means to obtain his loyal followers. It is a time-honored emblem of his control over mankind in the place of God or his Son.

    Our culture is very confused, very distracted and very divided in determining what is right and what is wrong. Satan is dividing our nation and deceiving the population making it very hard to speak out and teach our neighbor what is truth. The words of Abraham Lincoln, in his House Divided speech ...read more
