God Is Love: That's Why He Created Hell

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Aug 18, 2021

This is a revision of a sermon I posted over a year ago on another website. The subject matter is more timely than ever considering the rapid descent into evil and chaos we have witnessed recently. Come quickly, Lord Jesus.

Now ...read more

Contributed by Stephen Aram on Aug 31, 2019

The understanding that the Apostle Paul had for God's calling on his life is instructive for the calling of every church.

This morning I would like to start on a fairly major project. We are going to start a sermon series from the New Testament book of Ephesians. Its only 6 chapters long, but there is so much in it that it could easily take us 6 months to complete. I love the Bible, and to see the Bible's ...read more

A New Command

Contributed by Dr. Jeffrey Dukeman on May 13, 2019

Jesus on the last night of his life teaches his disciples to love one another. But the chief point of the text is the love of Jesus, a love that fulfills certain themes from the feast of Hanukkah (explicitly mentioned in John 10:22).

In thinking about our Gospel text this morning I was reminded of the movie 300. This 2006 movie was quite the success. Men liked the battles and I’ve been told that many women liked the abs. Whatever exactly the case, the film grossed about 450 million dollars. The movie is loosely based on the ...read more

The final week of Jesus' public ministry had started with His triumphal entry into Jerusalem, being hailed as the rightful heir of David and the One who would finally drive out the hated Roman Gentile oppressors and restore the nation of Israel back to its former glory, or so the people ...read more
