The Caged Spirit Series

Contributed by Freedom Obanijesu on May 31, 2020

What are these “spirits in prison”? Many people reading the word “spirits” in this passage translate it in their minds to dead people who supposedly live now (as spirits) in a prison.

Let’s read this passage together with verses 18 and 20: I Peter 3:18-20 “For Christ also died for sins once for all, the just for the unjust, so that He might bring us ...read more

Hatred Growing

Contributed by Damien Saylor on Aug 23, 2020

Now who do you think Hatred is growing towards? I would immediately list the answer as the lawbreakers, or the ungodly. No, overwhelmingly the answer is towards Christians. Somehow, no matter what may be happening, the Christian is blamed.

Sermon- Hatred growing - As I’m studying I often go through little Christian Forums. I’m looking for other people’s thoughts about what’s happening in our world. - A trend that I’m noticing more & more is hatred. Q- Hatred for who? - I would immediately list the answer as the ...read more

Maybe you've listened to the voice of criticism so long you can't believe anything else about yourself. Or maybe it's the enemies voice of condemnation that speaks lies about who you really are. his I know—If you don't silence those competing voices...

Conscience Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Sep 25, 2021

Our conscience is a God given gift, which is like an arbiter who is constantly evaluating all that we do, and instructing us as to what is right and what is wrong.

Conscience Let us look again at Genesis 3:9, “But the LORD God called out to the man, "Where are you?" (GNB) Our God is omniscient, the one who is all knowing, which implies that He knows everything about the past, present and future. God is also the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning ...read more

Dialogue With Job

As a result of these beliefs, false perceptions were formed about the Creator of ...read more

More Than One Master? Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Apr 29, 2021

One of the important areas that Jesus spoke a lot about was the enslavement to money and material possessions. Money is essential for our basic needs and daily living, but we should be wary to not let money become our master. Here is a study on being under different masters!

More than one master? We read like this in Matthew 6:24, “No man is able to be a servant to two masters: for he will have hate for the one and love for the other, or he will keep to one and have no respect for the other. You may not be servants of God and of wealth.” (BBE) In the above mentioned ...read more

Jesus Before Pilate Series

Contributed by Dennis Davidson on Apr 3, 2023

The trials on Jesus’ last earthly day picture the religious & political world’s rejection of Jesus & His claims. He came unto His own and they did not receive Him. Sin’s blindness leads to Jesus’ dying because of who He is, God in human flesh.
