    1 Timothy 4:1-5 shows us several features of false teachers.

    Scripture In his First Letter to Timothy, Paul concluded chapter 3 with a description of the church as “a pillar and buttress of the truth” (3:15) and a summary of that truth in relation to Christ (3:16). Chapter 4 opens with a discussion of false teachers. Let us read 1 Timothy 4:1-5: 1 Now the ...read more

    We live in a nation where respect and honor are not top priorities. For example, respect for the elderly is something today that is missing in our society.

    . We see a lot of rudeness, and much of it is directed toward the elderly. Illus: Did you hear about the grandmother that was going to ride a bus downtown with her grandson? She got on the bus, and the bus driver was very rude to her. As she got on the bus with her grandchild, the bus driver ...read more

    Jesus often taught in parables. Among his many listeners, some folks understood their meaning and some folks didn't. And that is still true today, because we all tend to hear what we want to hear.

    The Lord used these parables to convey a truth to the listeners then, and to His listeners now, by taking a physical situation to teach a spiritual truth. Luke 18:1-8 is a parable about prayer. This is made clear in the first verse of this parable, look at Luke 18:1, we read, “And he spake a ...read more

    One of the reasons that it is a sin for Christians to take drugs or drink alcoholic beverages is because these are substances that control our behavior.

    These are things that will ruin our lives and cause us to make fools out of ourselves. There is no way that a Christian can be controlled by the Holy Spirit if they are controlled by these substances. But these are not the only things that control Christians. For example, there are many ...read more

    There are times we hear when someone is in prison for life but because of forensics they are released.

    The development of DNA testing and the ability to use the science of the body’s cells to solve crimes has made significant changes in the criminal justice field.

We started our study back in Romans chapter 4 dealing with one of the most incredible examples of faith, Abraham.

    He is a miracle working God

    Today, I want to take a look at the life of a man that was radically changed by the power of God. But most importantly I want to look at his faith and his reaction to Jesus.

    The New Testament repeatedly tells us to "love one another," but why bother? Why do I constantly need to be reminded?

    A woman once told of her experience as a Church secretary. When she answered the phone she’d say, “Jesus loves you, Sharon speaking. How may I help you?” But one day she got distracted because she was talking to others in the office. When the phone rang she answered: “Sharon loves you, Jesus ...read more
