     | 26,831 views

    We live in a society of victims. Everyone has an excuse for the things that they do against God. It’s called THE BLAME GAME, and it is not new. It comes from our FALLEN NATURE. We discover the blame game in Genesis 3. It is the record of the sin, e

     | 10,997 views

    No doctrine, if true, should contradict other Scripture texts. "Once Saved Always Saved" is a teaching which, on the surface, seems to be scriptural, but if it is rigorously compared to a broad spectrum of Scriptures, it becomes clear that it violates a g

    We live in a wolrd where the law of loss rules -- where things break down, fall apart, or are even stolen. What if we could find something that had permanent value? Where can we store it? What does that look like?

    Introduction We see the evidence everywhere. It’s seen in a bike no longer ridden... a washer or dryer no longer functioning... a table or chair with a busted leg... a television that stopped working... How many of you have something you once valued now stored in your garage, shop, attic, or ...read more

    The alternative to inexhaustible purpose is to stay in the RUT of the familiar and common-place...“The only difference between a rut and a grave is one of dimension.” (anon)

    LIFE GOALS VIDEO CLIP... Jesus gives us an invitation to go diving! He invites us to plunge into the deep waters of his inexhaustible purpose! I warn you. Diving has its risks. It is not without dangerous possibilities. That’s why many people choose to play it safe. SAFE is familiar and ...read more

    We are all thankful for every precious verse of scripture in the Word of God, but there are some verses we favor above others.

    One such verse is Psalm 56:3, we read, “What time I am afraid, I will trust in thee.” WHY IS THIS SUCH A FAVORITE VERSE OF SCRIPTURE FOR SO MANY? Because there are times in ALL OF OUR LIVES when we are AFRAID! Illus: In one movie, John Wayne, who is known for his toughness, was leading a bunch ...read more

    Job 1: Job's first test. Do we devote ourselves to God because He gives us blessings, or does He give us blessings because we devote ourselves to Him?

    How do you react to devastation in your life? I think that, with most people, the worse our tragedies are, the worse our reactions will be. And while that is a human instinct, is it a Godly instinct? Let’s take a look at the book of JOB today and see if there is anything we might be able to ...read more
