Sunday Morning Religion

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 19, 2022

You can ride by most churches and they have a church sign outside telling the public what time their church services start.

But I have a problem with some churches posting on their church signs they worship God between 11 to 12 . According to the Word of God this is somewhat misleading! HOW IS IT MISLEADING? It implies we worship the Lord one hour a week and this is not what the Bible teaches we christians should be ...read more

Don’t You Dare Even To Omit A Word, Any Denier Of The Truth! Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jan 5, 2024

We can not play games with God for the preaching of His inspired word is so essential, and we become deniers if we omit from our preaching that which we might not find pleasing to ourselves or others. Preaching must not omit a word as Jeremiah learned from the Lord. Be faithful.

DON’T YOU DARE EVEN TO OMIT A WORD, ANY WHO WOULD DENY THE TRUTH! [1]. INTRODUCTION Some events in the Christian world cause me distress when I learn of them for there are too many practices that are downright dishonouring to God.

The Spirit-Filled Life (Part 2) Series

Contributed by Scott Bayles on Jan 13, 2024

Does the Holy Spirit still speak? Absolutely. He speaks to us through his whispers, his witnesses, and his Word. And he may speak to you in other ways too, if you’re listening. “The true children of God are those who let God’s Spirit lead them” (Romans 8:14).

The Spirit-filled Life (2) Scott Bayles, pastor Blooming Grove Christian Church: 5/28/2017 If you’re like me, you may have grown up in a church that rarely if ever talked about the Holy Spirit. I don’t recall my pastor ever explaining who the Holy Spirit is or preaching sermons about Him. We ...read more

And Injustice For All

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Sep 23, 2023

The unjust judge is only a problem if we confuse God and man, and put our trust in the one instead of the other.

Have you ever felt that God just wasn’t listening? Silent, uncaring, even absent? Perhaps you have a problem, a need, a pain, a burning question; you bring it before God, and - nothing happens. You remember what Jesus said about persisting in prayer, so you go on battering at the heavenly gates - ...read more
