    Olympics Subtly Lure Tots Into Paganism's Embrace

    Over the past decade and a half or thereabouts, I have published occasional columns pointing out that there is more going on in terms of worldview at the Olympic games than good sportsmanship and keeping a stoic outlook no matter how disappointed one might be at the outcome of a particular event. ...read more

    The old covenant is a corporate affair between Yahweh and Israel, The new covenant does not involve a corporate action, indeed it is an individual and uniquely personal relationship with God’s own people brokered by and in Christ Jesus. prophet Jeremiah b

    I want to start from what a covenant is not. Covenant is not a contract. It is more than that. A contract is a legally binding exchange of promises or agreement between parties that the law will enforce. Contract law is based on the Latin phrase pacta sunt servanda (pacts must be kept).

    based on 3 ratings
     | 3,171 views

    Paul had a great longing to be like his Lord. We as modern-day Christians should have that same consuming desire to be like Jesus.

    LONGING FOR THE LIKENESS OF THE LORD Text: Ps.17: 15; Phil.3: 8, 9 Intro: Webster’s Dictionary defines the word “longing” as a “strong desire; yearning.” It almost goes without saying that everyone has strong desires of one sort or another. And the list of things for which people desire is ...read more

    Many are perishing from thirst, spiritually, even while there is an abundant supply of the Water of Life in reach of everyone in the land. We are blessed not just materially, but spiritually - yet we done even realize it.

    Some years ago in the newspapers there was a female novelist found dead in the desert of America. She had died of thirst. It seems that she had started out across the desert thinking she had enough water to make the trip; However when she stopped to get a swallow she found out that her canteen was ...read more

    Why don't the Pharisees and Jewish leaders believe the testimony of the Man born blind? Why don't we believe the testimony of all of creation when it is so obvious. Do we say, "Don't confuse me with the facts?"

    (Props needed - six foot thread - Bible collection CD) John 9:13-34 (Video) They brought to the Pharisees the man who had been blind. Now the day on which Jesus had made the mud and opened the man’s eyes was a Sabbath. Therefore the Pharisees also asked him how he had received his sight. ...read more

    Reach Out And Touch Someone

     | 7,774 views

    Although He didn't need to, Jesus usually healed people by touching them. Human touch is very powerful and it can actually bring us closer to God.

    This morning I want to talk about a very “touchy” subject. No, I don’t mean politics. For the past couple of months we have been discussing off and on the five senses and how we use them to know God better and today we’ve come to the fifth and final message in this series. ...read more

    It's difficult to see pride in yourself. This message identifies seven areas where our pride often rears its ugly head.

    - Few people will admit to being proud. It’s difficult thing to see in yourself. - In our passage for this morning (James 4:6), it tells us that God opposes the proud.

    How much evidence is necessary for belief? By any measure the evidence of the resurrection of Jesus is sufficient for belief. Why not take that step of faith?

    A young software engineer was asked by his manager Do you believe in the resurrection of the dead? . . . the day you took off to attend your grandfather’s funeral he stopped by to visit you. It seems to me most people here this morning are probably not interested in the evidence of the ...read more
