    Call No Man Father! Series

    Contributed by David Smith on Jun 19, 2009
    based on 5 ratings
     | 6,285 views

    You must not be called ’Teacher,’ because you are all equal and have only one Teacher. And you must not call anyone here on earth ’Father,’ because you have only the one Father in heaven. Nor should you be called ’Leader,’ because your one and only leader

    “Call no man ‘Father’” says Jesus. That’s part of our reading today from Matthew 23. Jesus says, “call no man ‘Father’”. What’s that doing here? And I don’t just mean what’s it doing here as this week’s reading. I mean, what’s it doing in the Bible? Since the (not so recent) publication of “The ...read more

    Seen, But Not Heard!

    Contributed by Melvin Newland on Apr 16, 2001
    based on 98 ratings
     | 7,935 views

    The Bible consistently teaches that Christians are not only to be seen, but also to be heard. If we have the only message that shows how to get back to God, then God forbid we keep that message to ourselves!

    MELVIN NEWLAND, MINISTER CENTRAL CHRISTIAN, BROWNSVILLE, TX ILL. I don’t know if you saw it or not, but last year there was a talk show in which the guest was contrasting the deaths of Princess Diana & Mother Theresa. One of her comments was, “I believe ...read more

    The weakest word in the English lanquage is "if". If only.....If only keeps us living in the past. The strongest word in the English language is "If". If you believe you will see the glory of God.

    THE WEAKEST WORD IN THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE INTRODUCTION: TEXT: John 11:17-35. What is the weakest word in the English language in the context of helping people?

    Selective Memory Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jul 27, 2003
    based on 29 ratings
     | 12,057 views

    We use selective memory either to remember only pleasant things (denial) or only negative things (pessimism). God’s memory is an occasion of grace, for which we can be grateful.

    The longer we live, the more there is to remember. And yet the more we remember, the more we forget as well. Isn’t that ironic? The longer we live, the more there is to remember. And yet the more we remember, the more we forget as well. That could be due to several things. That could be ...read more

    There is only one who wants us to think we have nothing to offer. There is only one who wants us to think we are insignificant. Time to tell the Devil to go to Hell

    Tell the Devil to go to Hell! JN 6:1 Some time after this, Jesus crossed to the far shore of the Sea of Galilee (that is, the Sea of Tiberias), 2 and a great crowd of people followed him because they saw the miraculous signs he had performed on the sick. 3 Then Jesus went up on a mountainside and ...read more

    Kingdom Credentials

    based on 4 ratings
     | 3,742 views

    According to the Bible, the Good News of Jesus Christ is powerful and is never to be communicated in word only. The testimony of the Cross of Christ is to be made effective not only by proclamation but also in demonstration of the power of the Holy Ghost.

    Rom 15:18-19 I dare not boast of anything else. I have brought the Gentiles to God by my message and by the way I lived before them. 19 I have won them over by the miracles done through me as signs from God--all by the power of God’s Spirit. In this way, I have fully presented the Good News of ...read more

    The Song Of A Free Spirit

    based on 1 rating
     | 2,289 views

    Singing is a matter of skill and practice, but it is only when your spirit is freed that you have a convincing song to sing, only when your life is changed that you have something to share.

    What makes it possible for voices like these to sing music like that? Where do they get whatever it takes to sing with such grace and power and beauty? Of course they have been blessed with a good deal of natural skill. Of course these singers are talented, and there’s no substitute for that. And ...read more

    Naaman’s story is one not only of physical healing but it is the story of salvation illustrating the spiritual healing that man finds and the transformation that takes place only in and through the Lord Jesus Christ.

    Transformed 2 Kings 5:1-18 Concerning the story of Naaman an illustrious English professor said, It is “The most effective short story in human literature.” It is far more than just a story of the healing of a man with a skin disease. W.A. Criswell said that this account is ...read more

    The Leading Of Christ Series

    Contributed by J. Yeargin on Mar 7, 2017
     | 4,853 views

    Our scriptures are unique in that Christ chose 3 of the 12 disciples to follow Him “into an high mountain apart.” One can only wonder why Jesus chose only 3…

    THE LEADING OF CHRIST Being a disciple of Christ is very important to the Plan of God. Trying to navigate on your own (without God) can be a mistake. When my wife and I travel we usually take our Garmen Navigation and sit it on the dash of our car. We try not to get lost, but it happens… and it’s ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 1,970 views

    Only in and through Jesus can we be saved, and our sins be forgiven. There is power and authority in the name of Jesus, and only if we comprehend this in its fullest can we actualize it in our lives.

    We read in Exodus 20:7,"Never use the name of the LORD your God carelessly. The LORD will make sure that anyone who carelessly uses his name will be punished.” (GW) We have been studying in details as to how the moral laws of God as given in the Old Testament, are still applicable to ...read more

    Only about 17% of church goers know what the Great Commission says. Why so few? And how can we not only know what it means, but do what it says?

    Just before midnight on April 14th, 1915 – the British Ocean Liner Titanic struck an iceberg and sank in less than 3 hours’ time. To this day, the tragedy of the (supposedly) UNSINKABLE Titanic still captures our imagination. On April 15, the news spread that the “unsinkable” Titanic had hit ...read more
