    We Have Overcome

    Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Sep 2, 2024
     | 904 views

    Tindley wrote, “I'll overcome some day”. Pete Seeger and Joan Baez sang, “We shall overcome”. And the apostle John wrote, “You... have overcome”. I like them all. But I am drawn most to the words in scripture that says the overcoming has already happened.

    Alba 9-1-2024 WE HAVE OVERCOME I John 4:4-6 "We Shall Overcome" is a gospel song that is associated heavily with the U.S. civil rights movement. Wikipedia has an article that says the origins of the song are unclear. It was thought to have descended from "I'll Overcome Some ...read more

    Do You Want to Be Clean?

    A young boy faithfully attended Sunday school. He had been taught by the same teacher for a number of years.

    She had a way of telling stories, and she would always routinely end her stories by saying, "And the moral of the story is…" Every Sunday she would tell a Bible story and say, “And the moral of the story is…” As the young boy began to grow older, he was promoted to another class.

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 16, 2022
     | 1,325 views

    It is easy to understand why we have so many depressed people in our society when you consider all the depressing things that are being dumped on them daily.

    (1) TAXES CAN BE DEPRESSING We continuously hear of the problems of our school systems. When you ask the school board what it is going to take to solve this problem, they say, “MORE MONEY!” • Will Rogers said that Alexander Hamilton originated the “put and take system” in our national treasury: ...read more

     | 1,978 views

    Legend has it that Satan once had an auction. He auctioned off all the weapons he possessed except one, it was the tool of discouragement.

    He was asked why he refused to auction off the tool of discouragement. His answer we are told was simple. He said, “With this one tool I can accomplish everything I want to accomplish.” This is the most powerful weapon that Satan has, and he is a master at knowing how to use it skillfully! • ...read more

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 17, 2022
     | 1,592 views

    Folks have different ideas about men and women in the ministry. They are referred to as “People of the Cloth.”

    Illus: The phrase, “People of the Cloth”, reminds me of the pastor of a conservative small-town congregation. He received the gift of a white suit from a friend, but he was a bit reluctant to wear it. Since it was so attractive and a perfect fit, he decided to put it on one warm Sunday. As he was ...read more

    It doesn't matter how bad things might seem, Just Hold On

    I wonder if there is anyone here that ever seems like bad things are always happening to them. It seems like that you are always getting the short end of things. However, after going through all of your trails what you have learned is that through it all God is always right there with us, getting ...read more

     | 5,874 views

    Israel had some serious problems, and the Lord wanted to take them to the Potter’s house to teach them a lesson.

    Illus: From an article in Reader’s Digest: A friend of mine awoke one morning to find a puddle of water in the middle of his king-size waterbed. In order to fix the puncture, he rolled the heavy mattress outdoors and filled it with more water so he could locate the leak more easily. The enormous ...read more

    Faith Cometh By…

     | 1,760 views

    Look especially at verse 6, we read, “But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.”

    Also, let us look at Romans 10:13-17 All churches that are Bible preaching churches, preach regularly on the doctrines of the Bible. Many of the doctrines of the Bible are both SIMPLE and COMPLEX. Faith is one of those doctrines. For example: • It is so simple a child can understand it • It is ...read more

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 25, 2022
     | 3,448 views

    God had a purpose in recording the conversion of the apostle Paul.

    As we look at the apostle’s Paul’s conversion, we can see clearly he was truly converted. That cannot be said of everyone who professes to be saved! WHY DO WE WONDER ABOUT PEOPLE’S SALVATION? Illus: What would you think of one of our soldiers in Iraq if they were always fraternizing with the ...read more

    Give Us A King

     | 3,968 views

    This passage shares the account of a church that is looking at what the church down the road is doing. The pastor (Samuel) tries to lead this church (Israel) according to God’s will, but the congregation won’t heed his counsel.

    As we look at this chapter of 1 Samuel today, there unfolds a scene that can be applied to discussing the goal of churches today. What is the vision of some churches? Do churches think in a Christ-centered manner, or do they think in a worldly manner? What I mean is this: Are churches today ...read more

    There are days in our life that stand out above others and we will never forget those days as long as we live.

    • We can remember the day we got married In all fairness, some of us men do forget our anniversary, which is not a good thing to do! Illus: One woman who knew her husband who could not remember what day they got married and as a result often forgot their anniversary, decided she would play a ...read more

    Biblical Fellowship (A Communion Sermon)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 30, 2022
     | 1,631 views

    Someone said, “Fellowship is like fellows in a ship!” Then they said, “The only thing wrong with fellowship is that there are not enough fellows in the ship.”

    As we read through the New Testament, we can see that FELLOWSHIP is essential to God’s church. For a church to be a strong church, FELLOWSHIP IS ESSENTIAL. Let me give you an example how important it is. Illus: Romanian orphans have a medical condition that many of them suffer from. In ...read more

    Today I want to talk about the two most important responsibilities in the church.

    Illus: An unknown person wrote a letter to the editor of the newspaper and complained that it made no sense to go to church every Sunday. The complainer said, "I've gone for 30 years now," he wrote, "and in that time I have heard something like 3,000 sermons. But for the life of ...read more

    In this sermon, I want to complete the preaching on the Fruit of the Spirit.

    The last fruit that we are going to deal with is the fruit of Temperance. When I think of the fruit of Temperance, I think of a thermostat. Illus: You know what a thermostat does!
