     | 1,390 views

    “The trumpet, scattering its awful sound. Across the graves of all lands, Summons all before the throne. Remember, gentle Jesus, that I am the reason for your time on earth, do not cast me out on that day, When the damned are confounded, and consigned to keen flames, call me with the blessed.”

    BYOB stands for Bring Your Own Beverage. Today’s parable is about preparing for our individual and irrevocable particular judgment at death and it is always a Bring Your Own Oil affair—BYOO. [Thanks to Troy Borst for this phrase] The inevitable sleep of death overtook all ten of them, and our ...read more

  • The Gospel Of Matthew: An Introduction

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Nov 3, 2024
     | 451 views

    Matthew's account of the life of the Lord Jesus Christ was written to show his fellow Jews that Jesus was the Promised Messiah, liberating them not from the tyranny of Rome, but from the tyranny and condemnation of sin. His death and resurrection freed all of us from this curse.

    Dr. Frank Turek, the noted Christian apologist, said that the writers of the New Testament did not create the account of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ, but that the resurrection created the writers of the New Testament. If Jesus had not risen from the dead, His life would have been ...read more

    Introduction: A. Let’s begin this morning with a few quotes for the New Year. 1. “A New Year’s resolution is something that goes in one year and out the other,” Author Unknown. Certainly pessimistic, but often true. 2. “Be always at war with your vices, at peace with your neighbors, and let each ...read more

  • Did Jesus Have A Wife?

    Contributed by John Gaston on Oct 4, 2012
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,302 views

    The recent publishing of a 4th century papyrus fragment where Jesus is purported to say He had a wife will continue to be vetted for months in the media. Christians must be informed and have a strong defense of the authority of the Word of God.

    DID JESUS HAVE A WIFE? Rev. 22:18-19 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. In a church scriptorium, a group of old monks huddled over an ancient manuscript. 2. They are holy men devoted to God and studying the holy writings. Suddenly, the group begins to wail in unison over what they are reading. Someone ...read more

  • Faith Like A Child

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 29, 2022

     | 5,314 views

    We need to consider how our waning faith can become a hindrance to others. Jesus provides a warning about hindering other believers who have the faith of a child. It is also a warning about hindering children from coming to Christ.

    Back when I was in college, one of my favorite songs was “Faith Like a Child” by Jars of Clay. Listen as I share some of the lyrics to this song: “Dear God, surround me as I speak; the bridges that I walk across are weak. Frustrations fill the void that I can’t solely bear . . . Sometimes, when I ...read more

    Christ's message to the Church in Ephesus speaks to churches today that are beginning to lose their ardour. His message is a clarion call to stir up the flames, to stoke the fire.

    “To the angel of the church in Ephesus write: ‘The words of him who holds the seven stars in his right hand, who walks among the seven golden lampstands. “‘I know your works, your toil and your patient endurance, and how you cannot bear with those who are evil but have tested those who call ...read more

    Final in a three part series exploring the role of the church in the city. This message explores the book of Philemon, and the role the church has played in cities through the centuries.

    It was a hand delivered letter. It arrived at his home. He opened it, and read it. (Had loaded a copy of the book of Philemon from "the message" into an envelope.
