    The Christian can use the Law as a resource or a supervisor to discover the Law of Love.

    Psalms 19:7-14 "The Christian’s Resources" Introduction It always amazes me when I look at the sky and think that for centuries men have sailed the seas using the stars, the sun, and the moon to give directions to far off ports. The order, the predictability of these heavenly bodies also helped ...read more

     | 13,511 views

    We can grow casual about God's Grace, and we can think we can earn it. Grace is examined by looking at the Christians in Corinth and in Galatia, and examining their differences and similarities in how Paul writes to them.

    I’ve Grown Accustomed to His Grace Dr. R.C. Sproul, a famous radio preacher, was assigned an Old Testament class of 250 freshmen. In his syllabus he clearly set forth the course requirements. There would be three small papers due by noon on September 30, October 30 and November 30. They were ...read more

    An Ode To The Word Of God

    based on 3 ratings
     | 2,320 views

    This section has been called an inverted dirge, beginning with celebration, but ending in tears. This shows just how totally the Psalmist is engaged with his subject. In truth, it is a celebration of the Word of God, and of the God of the Word.

    AN ODE TO THE WORD OF GOD. Psalm 119:129-136. Psalm 119:129. Reason to keep God’s “testimonies”? Because they are wonderful. Indeed, the Word of God is a ‘wonderful’ thing, full as it is of an extraordinary supernatural wonder! The Psalmist engages not just his “soul” but his whole man to the ...read more

    A Return To Civility: Intro Series

    Contributed by Denn Guptill on Jun 23, 2024
     | 1,559 views

    I noticed that as a society we've seemed to have lost our Civility, we no longer show one another respect. Could that be because we've lost our common morality? This is a new look at the 10 Commandments

    Earlier this year I was struck by how uncivil our society has become. I can’t remember if it was a personal encounter with someone or something I saw on the news or read on social media. But I do remember thinking: Why can’t we just be civil to each other, what can’t we just be nice? It seems that ...read more

    This message warns us not to depend on a list of rules, which only makes things worse, but to depend on the Lord, who alone can change us from the inside out as He lives His life through us.

    Freedom’s Power (Galatians 2:11-21) Several years ago, the Chicago Tribune, ran an article about the religious history of the Chicago area.

    How the officials accused Jesus of deserving to die for breaking the law - and how the law ended up stating that very thing - but a different law.

    March 17, 2004 John 19:4-7 Pilate came out and said to the Jews, “Look, I am bringing him out to you to let you know that I find no basis for a charge against him.” 5 When Jesus came out wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe, Pilate said to them, “Here is the man!” 6 As soon as the ...read more
