    Focus On The Doughnut

    Contributed by Jarrett D. Lott on Jul 18, 2013
     | 7,375 views

    The primary focus of this sermon is to help the believer to look at what God is yet doing even in the midst of all that is happening to them; like focusing on the doughnut & not the hole in the doughnut.

    A doughnut is a type of sweet deep fried pastry. The doughnut is often sprinkled with sugar or other toppings, and may be frosted or glazed as well. Associated in some nations with breakfast, the doughnut is generally agreed to be a sweet and delicious indulgence. Some countries also consume donut ...read more

    "The Kind Of Man That Job Was"

    Contributed by Paul Ray on Jul 24, 2013
     | 15,361 views

    So called early Wisdom Literature is rather simplistic as to cause and effect. Whereas Job is a vital stride toward being more realistic, & honest, about life's complications. So, now look at the kind of man Job was, his 'friends' were, and his God is.

    July 28, 2013 “The Kind of Man That Job Was” Job 1:1-22 The book of Job is an important part of the Wisdom Literature found in the Old Testament. It is important because it provides an often ignored premise - concerning the questions about the suffering of the innocent. In ...read more

    Have you ever heard the boys with the most toys wins? Amazing how the world can contort things from God-centered fact to self-proclaiming malarkey! This morning I want to look at an ancient account of the suffering of Job and contextualize some of its components into today’s world!

    In view of many church members’ personal problems that happened in a short period of time, this sermon is trying to find some insights for encouragement in answering the question “Why Do Good Righteous People Suffer?”

    1.0 Introduction: I think this will be a year of trial for our church. There is bad news everywhere! Our Children Ministry has been hard hit! Julie is off because of surgery, Pastor Byron has cancer, Alan So’s mother passed away and leaving for HK, Gladys has back and shoulder pain, Paul Hung’s ...read more

    Job gives to us three foundational truths that keep us believing that God is good when circumstances read the other way.

    What Will Sustain You? Job 1:20-22; James 5:10-11 This message was preached the day after I had officiated at my aunt's funeral. She and my father had died within one week of each other near the Thanksgiving holiday. My mother was caught off guard. As we approached the stand next to the vault, ...read more

    Praising the Lord should not depend on the circumstances of your life

    20 Then Job arose, tore his robe, and shaved his head; and he fell to the ground and worshipped. 21 And he said: “Naked I came from my mother’s womb, And naked shall I return there. The Lord gave, and the Lord has taken away; Blessed (or Praise) be the name of the Lord.” 22 In all this Job did ...read more

    In times of suffering there is a man of God that we could consider as part of our encouragement to press on and face the trials and suffering.

    JOB AS A MAN OF GOD Introduction: The book of Job has no concrete evidence that Job wrote it while it is possible that may Job written it. Job means “hated” or “the much persecuted.” Perhaps “Job” was a nickname his friends gave him during his suffering. Three ...read more

    One man's attempt to unravel the Scriptural reasons for suffering, especially the suffering of the people of God. Not an easy task.

    SUFFERING, per the BIBLE Another man’s attempt to figure it out… It’s not as easy as we are led to believe. We get sick and right away someone tells us we are being judged of God. Maybe. Another person gets sick, and he is told there is no spiritual significance to the illness. ...read more

    God's 'suddenlys' will bless us when we learn how to respond to them properly.

    He was a good man. A godly man. A righteous man. And he never saw it coming. I’m sure he was blindsided by what happened. He prayed for his children constantly because he was concerned about their relationship with God, and for all this God blessed him. Yet, in the space a few minutes, ...read more

    Satan uses pain to make people doubt God’s goodness. He wants to inject doubt into our minds until we distrust the character and behavior of our heavenly Father.

    Undeserved Trials –why?

    Contributed by John Bartol on Jun 1, 2013
     | 7,346 views

    Job was bewildered by suffering that seemed undeserved. Here we see a good man suffering, not as punishment for past sins but as proof that he would not waver in the faith. Job was on the Devils hit list, and that was a compliment to his faith. Satan tri

    UNDESERVED TRIALS-WHY? Why do good people sometimes suffer greatly and evil people seem to prosper? Does it pay to be good? Does it pay to serve the Lord? We sometimes say about a very fine person who is having a hard time “ He doesn't deserve this! Or, she doesn't deserve this!” ...read more
