    Rest Or Fire

    Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Mar 6, 2024
     | 921 views

    This life gives us a choice: Rest or Fire. When we trust in God we can look forward to rest. If we don't, it will be fire. The way I see it, there is really only one good choice!

    Alba 3-3-2024 REST OR FIRE II Thessalonians 1:1-10 A father had three very active boys. One summer evening, they were playing cops and robbers in the back yard after dinner. One of the boys "shot" his father yelling, "Bang! You’re dead!" He slumped to the ground. And when ...read more

    Zerubbabel’s mind was occupied by more pressing matters. Leaders must not only lead in the moment of crisis, but they must also lead us into the future. Before Zerubbabel can lead into the future, God must rebuild his faith and confidence.

    Sermon: God’s Promise of Turnaround Haggai 2:18-23 “Think about this eighteenth day of December, the day when the foundation of the Lord’s Temple was laid. Think carefully.

     | 962 views

    When you look at the letter of the Law, you demand one day only. When you look at the principle or purpose of the Law you see the grace that Paul spoke of and why Gentiles were not required to be under naught but the moral law.

    Exodus 20:8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. KJV The question is often asked why most Christians meet on Sunday instead of Saturday. Let's look first at the definition of the word in both Hebrew and Greek sincere will be looking at it it from the OT and NT sides. OT:7676 shabbath ...read more

    Ishmael's story teaches us the importance of trusting God’s timing and avoiding decisions based on impatience. While human efforts can bring temporary success, only God’s promises bring true fulfilment.

    Its only when we remove ourselves and the word 'if' from the equation, and trust God to do the impossible, that we truly step into faith. The story of David is not a question of 'if', but a testament to his faith. Are you willing to do the same?

    Introduction: Imagine a scenario where a king needed a faithful servant and had to choose between two candidates. He hired both individuals and instructed them to fill a basket with water from a nearby well. The king promised to inspect their work in the evening. One of the men became discouraged, ...read more

    Does Jesus still call and empower believers to do bold and amazing things in His name, like healing the sick, raising the dead, and casting out demons? Does this passage only apply to the first apostles, or can it be applied to us?

    I have entitled our sermon this morning, “An Extraordinary Commission,” and this is Part 1 of a two-part message. I want to begin by saying that I was raised in a small country church with a pastor who loved the Lord and His people, and proclaimed only the basics, like sin, repentance, salvation, ...read more

    Have you ever tried to prove yourself—only to realize the gift was already yours? In Galatians 3, Paul reminds us that we don’t need to earn God’s love—we’re already clothed in Christ.

    I remember the first suit I ever bought for myself. It was 1988, and I was working at Men’s Wearhouse—so I had access to the good stuff, not Hart, Shafner, and Marx, but high quality suits. I picked out a charcoal gray, double-breasted suit with chalk line pinstripes. Sharp. Classic. It was a $300 ...read more

    In the Christian life, there is only one audience that matters—our Heavenly Father. In Matthew 6, Jesus teaches us to live for the Audience of One. He warns us not to perform righteousness before others but to pursue a life that pleases God alone.

     | 180 views

    Noah’s obedience is a challenge to every believer. It is not enough to hear God’s Word; we must follow it carefully and consistently. The preservation of Noah’s family shows that righteousness does not only benefit an individual; it becomes a covering for generations.

What began as a creation filled with beauty, order, and divine purpose has now descended into deep corruption. The chapter shows the seriousness of ...read more
