When Faith Falters

Contributed by Jeffrey Dillinger on Mar 28, 2020

Sometimes “maybe” is all I have. Finding faith when I am in pain, when my world is crumbling, when I don’t understand is difficult. Lord, I believe, help me overcome my unbelief.”

When Faith Falters (Mark 9:14-29) Intro: A. For Peter, James and John life was incredible. They had witness Jesus radiating like the sun; they had seen two great heroes (Moses and Elijah) who were dead, but obviously living talking to Jesus; they had heard the voice of God ...read more

John 1:19-28 John the Baptist Encountering Christ in the Book of John #1 Imagine with me for a moment that some great and dreadful disease was sweeping the world today – a disease much like SARS that could be easily transmitted from person to person, and that people were dying by the thousands as ...read more

John The Greatest Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 18, 2021

It is of interest to note that John was the first person to recognize that Jesus came into the world to give His life as a sacrifice. He saw Jesus coming toward him and he said, "Behold the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world."

It takes all kinds to make a world is an old cliché, and like many old clichés there is a lot of truth to it. God so made our physical world that it just won't work without differences. Issac Asimov points out that energy can only be turned into work when you find it in greater ...read more

A Tribute To John

Contributed by Clark Tanner on Nov 15, 2000

John the Baptist pays tribute to Jesus; and in recording his words, John the Apostle pays tribute to him.

This portion of John’s gospel, when seen in context with surrounding narrative, at first may appear out of place. John has documented Jesus’ discourse with the Pharisee, Nicodemus, and early in the next chapter he records His conversation with the Samaritan woman by Jacob’s well near Sychar. ...read more

The Book Of Galatians – Chapter 1:2-10 - Message 2 Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jan 27, 2023

Paul takes on the false teachers with no holes barred. Twice he states that they be accursed. This message examines the false gospel that had ensnared the Galatian churches to bring the grace of God into disrepute. True grace of God has no part in keeping the Law.

THE BOOK OF GALATIANS – CHAPTER 1:2-10 - MESSAGE 2 This message continues from Part 1 (A).

John 12:1-8 (The Erotic & The Domestic)

Contributed by David Smith on Oct 30, 2007

It doesn’t take long at this dinner party before the chaos breaks out, this time through the surprising appearance of Mary, pouring a ludicrously expensive jar of perfume.

We’re turning to John’s Gospel today, which, quite frankly, is a little unnerving for me, as I find John’s Gospel more difficult to deal with than the other three John retells the story of Jesus in such a way that things are rarely as they appear to be. Jesus speaks of being born ’from above’ and ...read more

"This is a fresh approach to this remarkable encounter between a brother trying to get in a place where Jesus is telling him to quickly get away from!"

In chapter five of his Gospel is the main miracle of the man who had been sitting at the Pool of Bethesda for thirty-eight long years. Allow our creative imagination the ...read more

Provoking Thoughts From 1 John (3 Of 16)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 10, 2022

In chapter two we see why many think John was a “softy.” Look at verse 1. We read, “My little children...”

As we read these words, we can not help but think of an old, gray-haired man expressing concern for his children. This was exactly what John was doing. In a pervious sermon we dealt with the two sides of John’s personality. • That is, he had the intestinal fortitude to be able to look at the ...read more
