     | 1,249 views

    Last week, as we considered THE GREAT DEPRESSION, we dealt with the life of Elijah. He is the ideal person to study when you study the subject of depression.

    WHY IS HE THE IDEAL CANDIDATE FOR THIS STUDY? Because of what the Word of God says about him. Look at James 5:17, we read, "Elias was a man subject to like passions as we are…" Elijah represents us in that - (1) HE HAD HIS HIGH DAYS He enjoyed the highest of highs. We Americans ...read more

    Today I want to preach another sermon that can be preached in any church in America, and it would apply to most of the people in any congregation. I hope that as I preach the Word it will fall on good soil today.

    Illus: I heard of a preacher who was preaching a three-point sermon on the Second Coming of Christ, and he would close each of the main points of the sermon by saying, “HE IS COMING, READY OR NOT!” When he got to the third point he got so excited he got on the edge of the pulpit and screamed, ...read more

    The Bible tells us to stay strong in our faith and to always meet together as a church. But when we look around, it seems that more and more people are leaving the church. Why? This passage of Scripture explains the reason.

    In Hebrews 10:23-25, we read, “Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful. And let us consider one another in order to stir up love and good works, not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one ...read more
