    Sermon # 27 - The Supreme Sacrifice Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Mar 16, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,346 views

    When Abraham willingly offered his son Isaac on the altar, he had no clue that this was a fore-shadow of the supreme sacrifice that God would make many years later. This sermon explains what that supreme sacrifice was, and how this could alter our lives for eternity.

    We continue to ponder on Psalms 77:11-12, “I will remember your great deeds, LORD; I will recall the wonders you did in the past. I will think about all that you have done; I will meditate on all your mighty acts.” (GNB) The Psalmist made it his ambition to remember and recall, all of the great ...read more

    Doubting Abraham

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Mar 28, 2023
     | 1,926 views

    It is not the size of our faith that matters, it is the infinite faithfulness of God - who gives us faith enough to ask.

    What is faith? The writer to the Hebrews gives us the definition in just a few simple words: “Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.” [Heb 11:1] And then he goes on to list, one after another, the heroes of the faith. Abel, Noah, Abraham, Moses, Samuel, ...read more

    As we remember and honor our military veterans, let’s also consider three godly biblical veterans who have fought the war of faith - Enoch, Noah, & Abraham.

     | 9,395 views

    When Abraham experienced Jehovah’s provision, he built an altar so that he would remember that day. The Lord’s Table is our Mount Moriah … where we come to remember that Jehovah is our “jireh” … our provider.

    Abram's Belief For Our Benefit Series

    Contributed by T.j. Conwell on May 2, 2023
     | 970 views

    Abram's response to God offers us several questions to consider: Do we follow God’s calling as He leads us? Do we take time to reflect on what God has done? Do we follow God obediently? And, do we allow ourselves to be centered to God’s will and calling?

    Alpha and Omega, Part 17 Abram’s Belief for our Benefit Genesis 12:1-9 (focus on vv.4-9) Introduction - 2023 has been led with “one purpose”: To know there is a God! -- Continuing our series, “Alpha and Omega”; examining the beginning to the end - Last week we saw our lead into God’s ...read more

    Thanksgiving reminds us of the Pilgrims and their journey to America. Their faith proved them to be steppingstones for generations.

    1. Hebrews 11:13 (GNV) All these died in faith, and received not the promises, but saw them afar off, and believed them, and received them thankfully, and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth. 2.

    This seems like an adequate description of Christmas this year. Well, our original Christmas family had to deal with some inconveniences surrounding that first Christmas. Let's see how they handled them all.

    INCONVENIENT CHRISTMAS This seems like an adequate description of Christmas this year.

    Here we encounter another example of faith. This example illustrates that faith manifests itself in actions. Abraham’s faith is illustrated not simply by what he believed but by what he did.

    We embark on a 6 part series on Lot. The Genesis record of Lot is one failure after another and deep involvement with sin. We will look at how all this happened and the sorrowful end of a broken and failed man. Lot walked the road to ruin always.

    God has saved the best for last! This earth is headed for a glorious finish as God’s holy creation. God promises to establish His kingdom in righteousness and peace on a global scale. Hard to imagine when we look around us at the fallen and depraved conditions of our day.

    Today, let’s look into Exodus 16:32-36, where God provided manna to sustain the Israelites during their wilderness journey. This passage not only teaches us about God's provision in physical needs but also holds spiritual significance for us today.

    1. Divine Provision: Exodus 16:32-36 reveals God's supernatural provision of manna as physical sustenance. As believers, we can trust that God will meet our needs in every area of life. Matthew 6:25-34 emphasizes seeking God's kingdom first and relying on His provision. 2. Daily ...read more
