    The First Shall Be Last, And The Last Shall Be First

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Apr 22, 2015
     | 17,763 views

    Jesus says that it isn’t the religious folk who are first in the kingdom of heaven. It is those who are most open to turning their lives around who are first in line, those who take action when Jesus says, “follow me”.

    It’s painful to have someone you trust tell you that they are going to do something for you---and they don’t. Many of us can tell stories about people who have let us down by making promises and then not following up on them. For example, there is a story of a young widow whose husband ...read more

    Using Colossians 2:11-17 as a basis, Dave looks into the second of three spiritual dangers, this one being religious legalism.

    The First Passover: An Exposition of Exodus 12:1-14 The Passover is a special day for the Jewish people. Even secular Jews celebrate it.

    After living more than 60 years, I know that any claim that offers an effortless way to develop a lean, well conditioned body is a hoax. So is any sermon title that promises an easy way to become like our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

    The Falling Away Comes First

    Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Mar 18, 2024
     | 1,118 views

    The Thessalonians were looking forward to His coming. But something caused them to be “shaken in mind and troubled.” The assurance Paul gives to them gives assurance to us as well: the Lord has promised to return for His own, and we have not missed it. The falling away will come first.

    Alba 3-17-2024 THE FALLING AWAY COMES FIRST II Thessalonians 2:1-12 My wife, Janine, tells about a dream she had when she was very young, likely no more than four years old. At that time her family lived on a farm in North Dakota. There was a long driveway from the road to the house. In her ...read more

    The Only God, The First And The Last Series

    Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Aug 7, 2022
     | 2,211 views

    It’s foolish to put our confidence in what we own, or in what we look like, or in the people we love. All these good things only spring from the Lord God, the overflowing fountain. And none of these things can save or redeem, for God alone is the First and the Last.

    One of my favourite Bible stories is in 1 Kings 18. That’s the chapter where God has a showdown with Baal, a dramatic contest on the top of Mount Carmel. You remember how Elijah challenges the prophets of Baal to a competition. ‘Come up the mountain,’ he said. ‘Bring two oxen for sacrifice, wood to ...read more

    First Advent Sunday Year A Remembering that in the Second Advent we will not know the day or time of it.

    When I read over the words of the Gospel reading today from Matthew, I thought of an old Henry Fonda movie I recently saw. The movie is called Fail Safe, it’s the story of a nuclear alert gone wrong. A flight crew aboard a U.S. bomber group of B-58 Hustlers if memory serves me correct. They think ...read more

    Now the relevance of this passage of Scripture is this: THE LORD STILL REVEALS HIMSELF IN ROUGH TIMES. And certainly, the infant days of this Twenty-First Century are ROUGH TIMES!

And being turned, I saw …” During the ruthless reign and rule of the Roman Emperor Domitian (the last year of his reign in the year A.D. 95) something momentous and marvelous happened: the Risen Christ pulled back the veil of mystery which ...read more

    Examines the first three petitions in the Lord's prayer - that are concerned with God’s glory.

    The Lord’s Prayer Part I Matthew 6:9-10 Almost all of our prayers begin by rushing into a series of requests in which we pour out to God our problems, our needs, our irritations.
