The Gratitude For The Saints

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Oct 28, 2018

The success of a pastor cannot be fully measured until after his departure. If he has equipped the church to continue in his absence, then his ministry will have been successful.

Elijah The Prophet Of Fire Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 11, 2021

Elijah broke into the atmosphere of human history like a comet. We have no story of his birth or background. His coming was as sudden and mysterious as was his going in the flaming chariot.

Elijah was the Luther of the Old Testament. He was God's man of the hour to begin a reformation and lead the children of Israel back to God. For about 50 years devotion to God had been decreasing. Ahab was now king in Israel, and he was more wicked than all who had gone before him. He married ...read more

Our Lord And Our Land Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 22, 2021

Paul was proud to be a Roman citizen. It was not because the empire was perfect, but because his citizenship gave him rights that were vital to his personal dignity, and to his service for God.

Human rights is a major issue in our world today, but it is not a new issue. Even under the Roman Emperor men had rights and they were precious. The Apostle Paul was unjustly arrested. He was about to be beaten when he calmly asked the Roman Centurion in charge if it was lawful to scourge a man ...read more

Why? Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 1, 2021

Job does not offend God with his whys. Instead, he makes God proud of him, because of his patience and persistence in spite of having no answer to his whys.

Paul Aurandt shares this true story of James Macie. He was an illegitimate child, which is really a foolish idea, for it is the parents that are illegitimate, and not the child, but as is so often the case, the stigma of this followed him for life. The laws of England, in the 18th century, denied ...read more

Two Days Before Christmas Series

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Dec 11, 2021

When Zechariah has an opportunity to perform restitution to God for his lack of faith, he writes boldly on his tablet the words of the angel, “his name shall be John.”

The Outworking Of Glory Series

Contributed by Robert Leroe on Aug 10, 2005

Jesus asked for His glory to be restored so He could fully exercise His authority. The “glory of God” is the radiance of His splendor. It’s an attribute of His attributes. When Jesus took a sacrificial interest in us, this was the outworking of glory.

“The Outworking of Glory” Pastor Bob Leroe, Cliftondale Congregational Church, Saugus, Massachusetts “For You granted Him authority over all people that He might give eternal life to all those You have given Him. Now this is the way to have eternal life: to know You, the only true God, and ...read more
