What The Bible Says About The Harvest.

Contributed by Jason Callihan on Aug 24, 2009

The BIBLICAL interpretation of Rev 14 and Matthew 13

The latter part of Chapter 14 reminds us of the harvest. When I read 14-20, I can’t help but think of Matthew 13. There are some similarities in the two. Look at Matthew 13:24-20. Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed ...read more

A Terrorist Turns To Jesus Series

Contributed by Doug Warren on Mar 25, 2006

Saul’s experience on the Damascus Road proves that God is more powerful than any Terrorist. Saul’s "religion" was keeping him from "relationship"with Jesus Christ.

Recognizing Jesus Series

Contributed by Tim Diack on Apr 9, 2013

As the two men walked along the road to Emmaus they met with the risen Jesus. Scripture tells us that they were "kept from recognizing Him." Why were they blinded to the reality of who He really was? How did they respond when they finally saw Him for w

Are The Seeds Still In The Barn Or Have We Taken Them Out For Planting? Series

Contributed by Chris Swanson on May 14, 2023

In this passage of scripture, Jesus tells the parable of the four soils in Mark 4:1-9. Then in Mark 4:10-25, Jesus gives an explanation about the parable of the four soils.

Jesus used parables to instruct the people. Parables are brief tales utilizing recognizable scenes to clarify spiritual truth. This technique for educating urges the audience to think. It disguises the truth from the individuals who are excessively obstinate or biased to hear what is being ...read more

Lord Of The Storm

Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Mar 21, 2021

As Lord of all creation, Jesus won’t let anything stop his plan to redeem sinners. So there is nothing more powerful than these words of comfort for his believers: “It is I.” His words overcome all our fears: “I am Jesus. Do not be afraid.”

It is humbling to stand at the edge of the ocean. Looking out over the water, seeing the pounding surf and hearing the noise of the breakers, you realize your smallness. This is creation’s awe-inspiring power. And it’s not only impressive, it can also be dangerous. Sometimes the surfers have to ...read more

Jesus And The Power To Overcome Death

Contributed by Craig Condon on Sep 11, 2015

Jesus’ raising of Lazarus sent the people running for cover, and it should also send us running for cover too. We and they finally see that Jesus is Lord and liberator of all the people of God.

The passage from John 11:30-47 shows Jesus at some of the highest and lowest points in his ministry. Jesus was told a few days earlier that his friend Lazarus was sick, but he waited for two days before he and the disciples went to the home of Mary and Martha, who were Lazarus’ sisters.

Let The Church Be The Church

Contributed by Chris Cuthbertson on Jun 6, 2024

God wants His church to grow and He commissioned us to evangelize, and if the church is doing its job it should grow, but numerical growth in itself is not evidence that God is blessing. It’s important to remember that the goal is to try to restore the church of the 1st century in its principles.

I want to share the questions asked of these preachers and then give you my answers to them. One of the questions he ...read more
