    The 1611 King James Bible is based on the Masoretic Old Testament manuscripts, guarded and handed down by the Hebrew Scholars, and the Received Text (known as the Textus Receptus, or Byzantine Greek text) preserved by God through Godly men.

    Contributed by Allan Quak on Mar 7, 2018
     | 6,917 views

    Our world is a place which causes much anxiety but Paul equips us with a response – it is a call to learn to pray properly. As we pray we will know a peace which is superior to anxiety and our hearts will be guarded and prepared.

    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,019 views

    Do you know what it feels like to have the peace of God guarding your heart and your mind in Christ Jesus? Do you know that you have been accepted into God’s family?

    THE Good News of the Gospel Let me start with a question: Do you enjoy hearing bad news? I assume this morning that there is one thing we all have in common - we all want to hear good news. We want to be encouraged. Wouldn’t it be nice to hear something good for a change on the evening ...read more

    As servants of the Lord we need to be on constant watchful guard against the subtle ways the enemy uses to divert us from God's purpose and to nullify any effectiveness we may have had in influencing others for God.

    And Abram went up out of Egypt, he, and his wife, and all that he had, and Lot with him, into the south. And Abram was very rich in cattle, in silver, and in gold.

    The Arrest Of Jesus Series

    Contributed by T.j. Conwell on Oct 6, 2016
     | 6,581 views

    Jesus has completely surrendered Himself to these guards; He signifies that He is their substitute. We must take a moment to grasp this: He places Himself in front of them (and us) to protect them from the danger.

    The Arrest of Jesus John 18:1-14 Following Jesus’s prayer in the garden, the events unfold quickly (setup for Sun) Re: This is at night, following Passover supper; after time spent in prayer ∆ Jesus Identifies and Surrenders In the garden, where a powerful time of prayer is ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 3,835 views

    It’s through the peace of God that our hearts and minds are guarded from anxiety and worry. When we pursue a conscious rejection of all that is not consistent with the mind of Christ, we begin to experience more exalted thoughts.

    A Desire for Unity "Therefore, my brothers, whom I love and long for, my joy and crown, stand firm thus in the Lord, my beloved. I entreat Euodia and I entreat Syntyche to agree in the Lord.

    Contributed by C. Philip Green on Mar 6, 2025
     | 493 views

    If you want to keep from being deceived, follow only a leader, who, like a father, jealously guards your pure devotion to Christ, generously cares for you, and genuinely shows you his true self.

    Pastor John Ortberg asks us to imagine picking your car up from the shop after a routine tune-up, and the technician says, “This car is in great shape.

    "watchful Living In A World Of Wheat And Tares" By Pastor Joseph Ondu

    Contributed by Joseph Ondu on Oct 7, 2024
     | 849 views

    This brings us to a crucial point: “while everyone was sleeping.” The enemy sowed the tares while the people were unaware. This suggests a lack of vigilance, a spiritual sleepiness. How often do we let our guard down?

    "Watchful Living in a World of Wheat and Tares" Scripture Reading: Matthew 13:24-30 “Jesus told them another parable: ‘The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field. But while everyone was sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat, and went away. ...read more

    How we relate to God affects how we relate to others: Because Cain didn't have a right relationship with God, his relationship with his brother Abel was not right either.

    For a number of years, one of my favorite TV shows was "Murder, She Wrote" with Angela Lansbury. Now, I could never figure out how so many murders could happen in that little New England village of Cabot Cove, but there was something captivating about trying to figure out "who done it" before the ...read more

    based on 104 ratings
     | 7,526 views

    How does the fact of the pre-existence of Christ affect us personally? 1. It means that Jesus is God and has the power to help. 2. It means God cares for us. 3. It means there is a plan.

    A look at the religious groups of Jesus day and how they were affected by their culture (as might be): 1. Zealots 2.Phariasees 3. Saduccees 4. Scribes 5. Herodians 6. Essenes

    How would you like it if someone spit on you? In our cultural setting it would be a sign of disrespect, an attempt to shame and humiliate a person. But for some cultures, it has an entirely different meaning. I am reading a wonderful book entitled Christianity Rediscovered. It is written by a ...read more

     | 2,824 views

    The world, and all our enjoyments in it, must be looked at with a holy indifference and contempt so that we come to a place where we are no longer at home, but sit loose, reserving our affections for him.

    Have you ever found yourself to have placed something or someone in a higher place in your heart than God Almighty? I have. Over the last few weeks, I’ve sensed the Spirit of God working in me to rid me of distractions and obsessions that have kept me from being captivated in wonder of him and ...read more

    Prior to His arrest, Jesus traveled up and down the strip of land once ruled by David and Solomon, inviting the people of Israel to become a part of His kingdom, promising abundant life.

    As much as we might like to believe otherwise, the road to maturity is a road marked with suffering. We all pass through its stations and we cannot do so without being affected.
