    Designed For Life

    Contributed by Brian Williams on Jul 29, 2023
     | 1,009 views

    When we better understand who God is, how and why the universe was designed, then we will better understand ourselves, where we came from, our destination, and how and why we were designed.

    Today we are continuing in our apologetics series on: “What do you believe?” We have been looking at the world and universe from a logical or philosophical perspective and about the evidence for the existence of a Creator God. We will be looking at two passages of Scriptures. One in Isaiah and the ...read more

    The Abundant Life

    based on 79 ratings
     | 40,895 views

    A close look at what the God-promised abundant life is and what it means for us as Christians.

    Christ said in John 10:10 “I came that they might have life, and might have it more abundantly.” I think we can easily find Christians who don’t seem to be different from the rest of the world. I bet it would be difficult to pick them out as Christians at a party or a ball game. This is part of ...read more

    Paul rejoiced in his weaknesses and hardships and difficulties... was he crazy? No, he had learned the source of strength in his weakness.

    OPEN: Years ago, the story was told of a Sunday School teacher who – on the Sunday before Thanksgiving - was encouraging the children in her class to share things they were grateful for. A little boy was asked what he was thankful for, and he thought for a moment. Then the boy went through a ...read more

    Two obstacles must be removed before we may receive the peace God wants to give us, so long delayed and frustrated: our false pride and our negative spirit of self-accusation. Then His victory will be ours.

    The neighborhood, if you could call it that, was one of the most rundown and poverty-stricken in the city. For fifty years the housing had decayed, and, as the original residents left, absentee landlords jammed far too many people into the old dwellings. Diseases became epidemic, and fires not ...read more

    A study of the beginning of Jesus' ministry in Galilee in Luke 4:14-15 will show us the characteristics of his ministry.

    Scripture Jesus began his public ministry when he was about thirty years of age (Luke 3:23). John the Baptist baptized Jesus in the Jordan River (3:21-22). Then the Holy Spirit led Jesus into the wilderness where he fasted for forty days. Throughout this time the devil tempted Jesus to doubt God ...read more

    Abraham discovered that real LIFE is about walking with God! Getting to know God! And in the text Paul tells us that God still wants people to walk with Him by faith.

    March 7, 1993 Romans 4:1 "What shall we say that Abraham ... has found?" The question of our text, "What has Abraham discovered?" comes between two Bible stories in our lesson for today; one from the Old Testament, one from the New. Both of these stories touch on the profound ...read more

    Experiencing peace and security knowing your position in Jesus Christ

    I remember reading a story when I was a boy about a bird whose egg dropped from its nest. When the baby bird hatched it had no identity because its mother wasn’t around for it to bond to. As a result, it spent the duration of the story looking for its mother. It asked everyone and everything it ...read more

    The thorns of life are many, but the grace of God is sufficient in our weakness.

    Text: “…a thorn in the flesh was given to me…” (2 Corinthians 12:7) What is a thorn? The American Heritage Dictionary says that a thorn is a modified branch in the form of a sharp, woody spine. It can cause sharp pain, irritation, or discomfort. How many of you have ever been struck by a ...read more

    There is another day beyond this one. There is an Elim just beyond Mara. An "old-fashioned" Pentecostal faith-builder.

    The Elims of Life Exodus 15:23-27 -- "And when they came to Marah, they could not drink of the waters of Marah, for they were bitter: therefore the name of it was called Marah."

    The life we get from Jesus, a gift from God through the Holy Spirit, requires cleansing and renewal daily, not just at the beginning.

    This familiar chapter from John’s Gospel is the lectionary text for today, the 2nd Sunday in Lent. It’s a good text, a familiar text, so familiar that when I first wrote it I expected it to be relatively smooth sailing. But it wasn’t. It was a difficult sermon for me to write, partly because it’s ...read more
