    A sermon of encouragement preached in a small rural parish.

    Sin In The Camp Series

    Contributed by Robert Leroe on Feb 21, 2016
     | 6,774 views

    God's punishment upon Achan (and his family and possessions) seems severe...and it was, because sin is a serious matter. Sin is rebellion. Sin is covenant-breaking. Sin is choosing to go our way and reject God's way. And sin has consequences.

    Hamlet famously complained that “Something is rotten in the state of Denmark.” Joshua found that something was rotten in Canaan, within his own people. After devoting himself to God, and after a miraculous victory at Jericho, Joshua's army suffered a defeat in Ai. Israel was enjoying ...read more

    How will Jesus judge drug addicts? Will He say depart from me I never knew you because they wasted their lives pursuing empty pleasures?

    There are many Christians hooked on prescription drugs. Some are hooked on pain medication, some are hooked on anti-depressants and alcohol. I know there are Christians who legitimately need pain medication and anti-depressants but there are some who don’t need them or need as much they are using. ...read more

     | 3,847 views

    We can know the price of an item but not necessarily understand what it's going to cost us. Jesus asks us to make and informed and deliberate decision about deciding to follow Him by outlining what it's going to cost us. (spoiler alert: it's everything - but it's worth it.)

It disguises the truth from the individuals who are excessively obstinate or biased to hear what is being ...read more

     | 1,554 views

    Although Christ, like a human, is made in the *image of God, he alone shares the likeness of God the Father. Christ is both sinless and apathetic (indifferent), and thus by striving to imitate Christ, one can achieve salvation.

Among his pupils were Origen and Alexander of Jerusalem. Born: Athens, Greece Died: Jerusalem School: Middle Platonism; ...read more

    Let's look at the first of the great commandments, loving God.

    Before we get into the topic of loving God deeply, let’s do a little housekeeping. Mark 12:30 seems to add a word, “you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength.” Where does the extra word come from?

    The individuals who judge others are blameworthy, additionally, of being hypocritical. No one will get away from God's judgment for individual sin, including the religious Jews and Gentiles.

    Romans 2:1-16 springs a snare, of sorts, for each peruser who felt that Paul's overwhelming rundown of sins toward the end of Romans chapter 1 was about others.

    Salvation: The Song Of Thanksgiving Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Mar 2, 2022
     | 2,057 views

    Even while others are facing judgment the saved will praise God. The joy of salvation is wonderfully expressed in a song. Salvation causes us to rejoice and praise God. This is very appropriately expressed in song.

    One way a person expresses love is through a song. If Jeremiah is the weeping prophet then Isaiah may be the singing prophet. Isaiah composed a lot of songs. Isaiah 26:1-9 is a song of praise that expresses thankfulness to God for salvation. This song expresses joy of salvation, praise to a worthy ...read more
