I Hate Death

Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Dec 2, 2021

An intimate look at sickness, disease, dying, death, and the promises of God

I hate death beyond words to describe. It fosters fear, sadness, hopelessness, loneliness, grief, and suffering. It's brutal. It's ugly. It smells. It hurts. It tears at the heart like a ravenous beast. It has no regrets and no mercy. It's a thief who robs you of those you love with no ...read more

Can The Devil Cause A Born-Again Christian To Become Sick?

Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Dec 31, 2021

(I will address this in more detail shortly). There was also a woman who was bound/disabled by satan ...read more

The Heart Of Worship: Avoiding The P.d.r. Disease

Contributed by Rick George on Apr 18, 2008

Looking at John 4:21-24, we discover what Jesus really wants from us in our worship.

Open the eyes of my heart – of our hearts. What does that really mean?

Answering Why

Contributed by Martin Wiles on Jan 27, 2013

In tragic times, we are tempted to ask why. The question itself is not wrong-after all Jesus asked it of his Father while on the cross, but it may not be the most appropriate question or lead to the best end.

Introduction: A. When tragedy strikes, we either grow bitter toward God or draw closer to him. B. Can God prevent tragedy? Yes. Why doesn’t he always? We can’t answer that. C. God is imminent and transcendent, but he’s not always imminent when we want him to be. D. As the writer ...read more

I Don't Feel A Thing! (Hix)

Contributed by Jimmy Haile on Mar 20, 2014

Jesus spoke in parables, He used physical things (Seeds, Water, Light, Soil, Birth, Wedding, Wine, Bread) to explain spiritual things (Witnessing, Testimony, Spiritual Birth, Christian Life, Christian Walk). So God is going to use leprosy as a teaching tool!

People are always concerned with physical body and not really concerned with spiritual body, but physical is connected to the spiritual! Sickness, disease, famine, pestilence, wars, death are all a direct or indirect result of sin!! The only way to bring any kind of healing to the physical, is to ...read more
