Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on May 12, 2025

It has to do with Messianic expectations.

Friday of the Fourth Week of Easter 2025 Why is it, do you think, that the vast majority of the Jews living in the early days of the Church found themselves unable to believe in Jesus as the Messiah and Son of God, the answer to their prayers and the fulfillment of the OT?

Provoking Thoughts From First John (1 Of 16)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 10, 2022

1 John is called one of the “General Epistles,” because it was not sent to a specific church. Rather, it was sent to churches in general.

The three books of John are referred to as “letters, however, the first was not written in the form of a letter. For example, it has no salutation nor conclusion. In fact, it has all the characteristics of a sermon in which a pastor is revealing his love for God’s people. To have a good ...read more

Provoking Thoughts From 1 John (2 Of 16)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 10, 2022

In the first sermon it was mentioned that in order to understand the books of 1, 2, and 3 John, we first needed to understand some things about the place John wrote from, Ephesus.

Because this is essential, I would like to refresh your memory before we get into the heart of this sermon. We dealt with these FOUR things about the Ephesian Christians: (1) THEIR HERITAGE.

Provoking Thoughts From 1 John (4 Of 16)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 10, 2022

In 1 John, chapter one, John had the audacity to tell some of those who claimed to be saved that they were liars.

Evidently John never took a course in “HOW TO WIN FRIENDS AND INFLUENCE PEOPLE”. If he had taken it, he would have had a hard time passing the course. We know this because we see he called those people liars five times. He used “liar(s)” in: • 1 John 1:10. • 1 John 2:4. • 1 John 2:22. • 1 John ...read more

Provoking Thoughts From 1 John (5 Of 16)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 10, 2022

In a previous sermon we dealt with what John had to say about how we can KNOW that WE KNOW THE LORD.

We discovered that anyone can say that they know the Lord...anyone! All one has to say is, “I know the Lord.” John used the word, “saith,” numerous times. He referred to it in: • 1 John 2:4. He said, “HE THAT SAITH, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not ...read more
