Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Mar 7, 2011

Does Your Life Speak Well Of God? Romans 15:1-13 (Lesson)

Contributed by Ronnie Miller on Nov 27, 2011

I believe a lot of times the reason it's hard to witness to others is because they have had a bad experience with a Christian before. Maybe in a business deal or a friend backslid after trying to get their friend to come to Christ...and they were thinkin

Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Jan 4, 2011

In the middle of an argument, my Mum would say something like this - "Maybe if you LISTENED for a change, you would understand what I am trying to tell you!" So often I am not so much listening but simply waiting for the other person to finish so that I c

Matthew 13:1-17 - A Backhoe Wouldn’t Go Astray! - Part 2 Series

Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Jan 8, 2011

Wait a minute! No, this is not about "15 minutes of fame". It’s about "sowing and reaping" longterm. It’s not "The Farmer wants a wife". It’s the FARMER WANTS A CROP. Jesus may have achieved CELEBRITY STATUS but He is not interested in walking out on the

Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Mar 27, 2011

Matthew 5 - Part 13 - Am I Going To Hell For Calling Someone A Fool? Series

Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Jan 3, 2010

Does calling your brother a fool make you guilty of hell. Is this what Jesus means? The NASB softens it down by adding the words "guilty ENOUGH TO GO into the fiery hell." but literally it says "whoever says ‘Fool’ will be sent to fiery hell"

Matthew 5 - Part 13 - AM I GOING TO HELL FOR CALLING SOMEONE A FOOL? I’ve been thinking about "Murder". Not committing murder but the subject of "murder". Jesus uses "murder" as a teaching unit on the mountain for His disciples. But He takes the view that it’s what happens on the inside that ...read more

Contributed by Clarence Eisberg on Jul 14, 2020

In order to understand the parables of Matthew 13 one must begin with Matthew 12 and the challenge of the Pharisees. These parables are about those who are receptive to the Word of God. The farmer scatters the seed. Let God do His thing. Tell "God Stories."

The Parables Of Matthew 13 "a Hidden Treasure And Pearl Of Great Price"

Contributed by Clarence Eisberg on Jul 23, 2020

What is the kingdom of God? What is this kingdom of Heaven in these two parables? William Barclay offers this helpful definition: The kingdom of God is “a society upon earth in which God’s will is as perfectly done as it is in heaven.” Are you the Pearl of Great Price?

Remember God's Strong Hand (Exodus 12:51-13:16) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jan 16, 2022

God set up all of Israelite life, so it'd be a constant reminder not simply of God, but of God's power. Why?

Let's start today, by reminding ourselves of where we are in Exodus. At this point, Yahweh has killed the firstborn of every Egyptian-- from human, up to cattle. Pharaoh has released God's people from their servitude. And Yahweh gave favor to the Israelites, so that they could ask for ...read more

Cities Of Refuge: A Kindness, To Keep You From Bloodguilt (Deuteronomy 19:1-13) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jan 25, 2022

God set them up, to protect you from bloodguilt. He knew you'd want revenge for accidental deaths, so He protected the innocent, from you. We don't take revenge.

This sermon marks the second Sunday we've talked about the cities of refuge. What I'd like to do this morning, because I love you, is start by messing with your heads a little. Normally, people think of the OT as the "half" of the Bible that's full of wrath and justice, ...read more

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jul 4, 2024

The choice of David to be the next king of Israel shows His Sovereignty in action, but also shows that He is a God of Surprises.
