The Book Of Joshua 3 Of 9

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 26, 2022

In chapter 1, we find that Moses died and the Lord has chosen Joshua to take his place.

Because Moses became angry and struck the rock, he was deprived of the privilege of leading the people of God into the Promised Land. Sin has deprived some of God’s choice servants of their greatest blessings. Sometimes the things God does in righteousness, wisdom and justice, seem blatantly ...read more

Justification By Faith: Two Examples Series

Contributed by James Jackson on Mar 27, 2022

Up to this point in Romans, Paul has been pretty academic and intellectual. But now, he puts skin on the truth that justification is by faith alone.

One of my favorite movies is Steven Spielberg’s Catch Me If You Can.

The Book Of Judges (5 Of 5) Deborah

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 30, 2022

After Ehud, Israel has peace for 80 years. He holds the record of bringing the longest period of peace during the period of the judges.

Some people think leadership does not matter, but it does. Notice, the Bible makes a point to show us that they had peace in the land as long as Ehud was alive. It was after he died the Bible tells us they fell off the wagon and began to do evil again. Look at Judges 4:1, we read, “And the ...read more

He Taught Them Many Parables… (The Parable Of The Wheat And Tares) # 2

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 15, 2022

Again, I would like to remind you that parables were one of the favorite tools the Lord used in teaching spiritual truths.

The Lord would take something physical that they all were familiar with, and use it to teach them a valuable spiritual lesson. This method of teaching is referred to as parables. And the Bible said that He taught them many parables. For example, in our scripture today, He used the parable of “The ...read more

The Character Assassination Of Jesus

Contributed by John Gaston on Jun 2, 2021

There was a wonderful atmosphere around Jesus: there was the prophetic, the counter-culture, the miracles, the crowds, the excitement. But not everyone liked it. The carnal tried to suppress the Spirit.

The Lord Loves Cheerful Workers.

Contributed by Gordon Mcculloch on Jul 3, 2022

We all need to leave the next at some times, and live. Jesus needed his 70 disciples to leave, and preach the gospel. He also gave them instructions to help them do so.

Christ is the Door. In Egypt, the blood of the lamb was taken, and the hyssop applied the blood to the door, which made the form of a cross as it went from the doorposts to the lintel and the blood ran down. At Calvary, hyssop was taken, offered to the Door on the cross, He who is the Lamb of God.
