    Fruit Inspectors (Hix)

    Contributed by Jimmy Haile on Oct 26, 2014
     | 7,731 views

    By their fruit you will recognize them-It may take some time, but we will eventually see whether the preacher is trying to benefit himself, or whether he is truly serving others.

    Matthew 7:15-20-“Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves. You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thornbushes or figs from thistles? Even so, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. A good ...read more

    The Danger Of Spiritual Highs

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 25, 2022
     | 2,698 views

    The life of Elijah teaches us many valuable lessons. One of the lessons it teaches us is that some of our most trying times come after a SPIRITUAL HIGH in our life.

    For example, Elijah had just had two of his greatest victories: • All alone, he has just confronted a cult, and had 450 of their prophets on Mount Carmel killed. • God had just used him through prayer, to bring rain after three years of drought. He was on a SPIRITUAL HIGH, he was on a roll, and ...read more

    If you act lost, you just may well be lost if that is your modus operandi.

    As I have said many times in the past, I take a real beating sometimes with people, unsaved and unfortunatly those that profess Christ as well. Why? Well, some is perhaps justified as I too am human and goof up at times (don't forget, pastors are always required to be perfect!). But usually it ...read more

    There are times when Christians can be inhospitable towards those who are seeking to deceive. Are we welcoming and giving credibility to those who are trying to make us question that Jesus is the Christ.

    You can listen to this sermon at https://www.npbc.org.au/podcasts/media 2 John 1-13 “Sometimes Be Inhospitable” A foundation interpretive principle of Scripture is that Scripture will never contradict Scripture. While this interpretive principle is always true … there are many occasions where ...read more

    This morning, we are going to see a prophet try to run away from God. And we will see God pursue Jonah with a storm. At the end of this section, the story gets a bit fishy.

    In the Storm (Jonah 1:4-17) Pastor Jefferson M. Williams Chenoa Baptist Church 09-08-19 A Whale of a Storm This past week, Hurricane Dorian slammed into the Bahamas as a category 5 storm.

    If we try to live the Christian life on a foundation other than that of Christ Jesus, we will not remain steadfast and committed to true Christian living. We will fail to bring God the glory.

    A Solid Foundation Luke 6:46-49 The leaning tower of Pisa in Italy is going to fall. Scientists travel yearly to measure the building’s slow descent. They report that the 179-foot tower moves about one-twentieth of an inch per year, and is now 17 feet out of plumb. They estimate by the year ...read more

    How does Jesus picture His Church? A Church trying to “hold on?" Intimidated?Struggling with worldliness? Struggling to stay alive? NO! Rather, a Victorious Conquering Church!

    Many times we are put through things that either disturb us or really test our faith. When this happens ask God "what are you trying to teach me?"

    What the sisters needed to Learn? John 11:1ff JN 11:1 Now a man named Lazarus was sick. He was from Bethany, the village of Mary and her sister Martha. 2 This Mary, whose brother Lazarus now lay sick, was the same one who poured perfume on the Lord and wiped his feet with her hair. 3 So the ...read more

    The Creation Of Man And Woman (Part 1 ) Series

    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,780 views

    The common misconception is that Chapter 2 is an epilogue or secondary insertion of what may have happened at creation. It is used by those who try to impose evolution into the creation narrative to justify their stance.

    What Is The Mistake That Leads Toward The Unforgiveable Sin?

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Mar 5, 2014
    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,697 views

    A look at the unforgiveable sin. I think the distinction that I share about why criticism of Jesus is acceptable but of the Holy Spirit is not will be helpful in getting to the heart of what Jesus is trying to convey.

    WHAT IS THE "UNFORGIVEABLE SIN" EXACTLY? It seems to be seeing consistently clear evidence of the Spirit’s movement and attributing it to Satan. - Luke 12:10. - The passage in Luke presents the shortest version of this saying in the gospels. The versions in Matthew 12:22-32 and Mark ...read more

    When you fail, don’t try to save yourself. Instead, realize you’re a loser (we all are), and rely on the Lord to turn your failure into victory!

    Recently, I came across some cynical observations on life and work: Nothing is foolproof to a talented fool; the early bird may get the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese; borrow money from a pessimist – they don't expect it back; if at first you don't succeed, destroy all evidence ...read more
