Did God Plan All This?

Contributed by Michael Meyers on Sep 4, 2005

Is Katrina one way that God is cleansing the Earth of sin? Is it more important to make these assumptions, or to get out and help the displaced saints and draw the displaced lost ones to Christ?

In the Bible, we read this passage: "And he said, Go forth, and stand upon the mount before the LORD. And, behold, the LORD passed by, and a great and strong wind rent the mountains, and brake in pieces the rocks before the LORD; but the LORD was not in the wind: and after the wind an earthquake; ...read more

Wrath Is Revealed Series

Contributed by Bruce Willis on Sep 24, 2007

This sermon seeks to communicate the truth that all persons are responsible to acknowledge and know God and to refuse to do so leaves one subject to the wrath of God being revealed in their life rather than receiving the righteousness that comes from God

It provides deliverance from the penalty of sin (death) and freedom from sin’s power over us now (it no longer masters us). For in the gospel he points out that a righteousness from God is ...read more

Vision Of The Lord Series
