Church As An Icu Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Sep 6, 2020

Jesus came to heal those sick with sin. That means the church is meant to be a hospital for those weighed down with guilt. But what can a church do better heal those lost in their shame?

When he arrived he found two doors: One was marked, ‘For the slightly wounded,’ and the other, ‘For the seriously wounded’. Well, he wasn’t seriously wounded so he entered through the first door and found ...read more

A Very Special "I Am” Of John’s Gospel – "Ego Eimi” – "I, I Am” – So Much Comfort In It – Part 2 Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Aug 31, 2022

When does despair become relief? When does the dangerous trough of despondency become the glorious hill of deliverance? The answer is in verse 19 of John 6. Jesus drew near to the boat and when Jesus walked on the water and came closer to the boat, all the perspective changed.

A VERY SPECIAL “I AM” OF JOHN’S GOSPEL – “EGO EIMI” – “I, I AM” – SO MUCH COMFORT IN IT – PART 2 We looked in PART 1 at the marvellous I AM of John’s Gospel.

All Murders Even The Forgotten Ones Will Be Judged And Avenged - Revelation 9 V 21 Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Sep 2, 2022

In the Tribulation period that happens after the Rapture, God's judgements fall on this world but the human heart is so hard it refuses to repent even then. In particular 4 sins are mentioned, one of them being murder, which is the topic for today.

Acts Of The Apostles (20 Of 39)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 14, 2022

Today we enjoy the freedom we have in America, and think very little about the men and women who bought and paid for it!

Illus: It is easy for me to understand why some of the old soldiers who faced death itself, some even lost legs, eyes, arms, etc., become angry when they see people who have done nothing to win, or keep, their freedom, wanting to burn the symbol of that freedom, the flag. Well, that is not the ...read more

Sunday Morning Religion

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 19, 2022

You can ride by most churches and they have a church sign outside telling the public what time their church services start.

But I have a problem with some churches posting on their church signs they worship God between 11 to 12 . According to the Word of God this is somewhat misleading! HOW IS IT MISLEADING? It implies we worship the Lord one hour a week and this is not what the Bible teaches we christians should be ...read more

Dealing With Injustice - A Message From Psalm 49 Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Apr 4, 2022

Injustice is everywhere and how does that affect the Christian? Faith must be placed in God, and this Psalm is exploring that. We are not to fear. The Psalm takes up redemption then moves to ultimate death for all when we take nothing with us. God redeems from the power of hell.

When things are going right for us, generally we all react basically the same way. We smile and enjoy the GOOD TIMES.

When someone asks us how things are going, we smile and say, “GREAT!” How we are different from one another is often revealed not during our GOOD TIMES, but during the HARD TIMES! One thing we all seem to do during HARD TIMES is turn to our friends for some sound advice. Often what we get ...read more
