    Tenacity #2 Control Series

    Contributed by Robert Butler on Oct 12, 2020
     | 2,146 views

    We all resemble the Israelites in this respect. Although we have experienced tremendous proof of God’s steadfast care and his blessings beyond our imagining in many cases, our ability to rest our will and control in God waivers.

    Last week, we discussed the first aspect of developing the quality of Tenacity - Connection. Over the course of the next three weeks we will be discussing three other aspects of the tenacity. The definition of the word is: the quality or fact of being able to grip something firmly; the quality or ...read more

    Letter To The Philadelphia Congregation Series

    Contributed by Scott Coltrain on May 24, 2015
     | 5,489 views

    Due to their rejection of Christ, the Jews lost their position as being God's Chosen. The Church, composed of the believing Jewish Remnant and Gentiles, is now God's Chosen. Christians, alone, have access to the throne of God.

    Verse 7 – Again, we see that this letter is sent to the angel of the church; that is, to the leadership of the congregation in Philadelphia. In the other Letters to the six other congregations, Jesus introduced Himself by taking phrases from the vision of Christ in Chapter 1. This is not ...read more

    Horizontal And Vertical Thanks

    Contributed by Rex S. Wignall on Nov 28, 2002
    based on 31 ratings
     | 5,697 views

    We must move beyond "comparative gratitude" and an awareness of our good fortune, to "vertical thanks to God who is the source of all blessings.

    Introduction: Comparative Gratitude Thanksgiving, like Christmas, is firmly woven into the American fabric as a tradition. I don’t mean this in a critical way – it is a wonderful occasion to gather families and to share a meal together (something rarer and rarer in this day). Just as we cannot ...read more

    We know what happened after Jonah preached in Nineveh but what happened to Nineveh after that?

    He arrived looking like a character out of a Wes Craven movie. He definitely wasn’t dressed for success and pretty wasn’t a word that would be used in describing him.

    Perhaps the greatest lessons I learned about life came during Marine Corps bootcamp, Paris Island, the Summer of 1978. Christians need bootcamp too.
