When The Glory Of God Departs Series

Contributed by Jim Butcher on Aug 2, 2024

The departure of the glory of God from the Temple was a milestone event. Was God forsaking His promises to Israel?

- It’s worth noting as I get started this evening that this is a wild chapter with a lot of interesting and unusual details. Those parts of the chapter are worth a Bible study unto themselves to unpack those meanings. This sermon, though, is not that Bible study. - Instead, we will be focusing ...read more

Psalm 43 Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Nov 19, 2020

We are going to examine this psalm as if it was written by godly King Hezekiah, although it could have been written by any of Israel’s godly kings. After David, he was the greatest king ever to sit upon the throne of Judea.

Let Justice Run Down

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Apr 15, 2021

In Amos' time, justice and righteousness no longer prevailed in Israel; but rather, it had become wormwood. Wormwood is toxic, so Israel was dealing with a toxic justice system - but God was going to bring justice!

In Amos 5:24, we read, “Let justice run down like water, and righteousness like a mighty stream!” This is a verse that probably resonates with us all. We all desire justice! I read some Christian articles that predicted the year 2020 to be “the year of justice,” but I doubt anyone who made these ...read more

Your Overlooked Sin

Contributed by B. D. B Moses on May 2, 2022

Israel was caught unaware, as they were cheering the judgement of the nations around them. Amos points his finger to the covenant people Israel. He charges them of their own overlooked sins deserving judgement.

It shocks everyone. These crimes are so heinous: • Russian soldiers’ murder, torture, looting, rape against Ukrainian women, threats of violence, and inhumane treatment of POWs. • In Myanmar a massive wave of violence broke out in Rakhine State, forcing more than 700,000 people - half of them ...read more

Shields Of Brass Or Gold?

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 12, 2022

Here, the Scripture portrays an Israelite king substituting true godliness with a cheap imitation in an attempt to fool the people of Israel into believing that the nation still had favor with God. But in reality, Israel was falling apart.

Some of the insights contained in this evening’s message were inspired by O. S. Hawkins’ book Shields of Brass or Shields of Gold? One day while Mr. Jones was chatting with Mr. Smith about yard work, Mr. Jones happened to mention that he had only cut the grass in his front yard that week because ...read more

Choose Wisely

Contributed by Jeremy Dunn on Aug 25, 2015

Israel was given a choice between life and death. They chose poorly. That same choice is offered to us. Life or death? Blessing or curse? The choice is ours to make. Choose wisely.

So often in scripture the thundering voice of judgment is followed by the loving voice of hope. Israel did forsake the Lord for idols and the Lord did bring upon his people judgements stated in his covenant. Israel had a choice, and they chose poorly. But interestingly enough, no nation in history ...read more

Leave The Mountain

Contributed by Steve Sheek on Apr 9, 2018

Israel had been at Mr Sinai for a year, building the tabernacle, training an army, and learning God's instructions (Torah). The God told Moses, "you have been at this mountain long enough". It was time to move on and accomplish God's plan for Israel.

Our Torah Portion today is the beginning of the book titled Deuteronomy. It comes from the Septuagint (the Greek translation of the Old Testament) and means “second law” or “repetition of the law. We know that when people say law, the actual Hebrew word Torah means instruction. God gave us His ...read more

Contributed by William Yates on Apr 9, 2005
