The Golden Goal Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Sep 7, 2024

The "Golden Rule" is both simple and profound and sums up the lifestyle Christians should embrace. But what does this "Rule" mean to us, and how can we live it to its fullest?

(Asking the audience) What Is Golden Rule? “Do unto others as you’d have them do unto you.” That’s a simple and yet powerful statement that has caught the imagination of the world, and it’s almost as if nobody (before Jesus) had ever thought about that! ILLUS: Several years ago, there was a ...read more

Contributed by William Akehurst on Jul 9, 2023

The heart of the LORD is about Mercy towards us, and as HE gives mercy, we are also to be merciful to others. We love, because HE first loved us. We forgive, because HE first forgave us. We have mercy because HE first was merciful to us.

Love Your Enemies

Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on Jun 7, 2022

Christ said to love your enemies. That takes His grace and the power of the Holy Spirit to do because it is not in our nature.

It is easy to see that Christians are surrounded by enemies on nearly every side. The irony is that while so-called Christians persecuted the Jews for centuries it is the Israelis who are our biggest friends. True, some of the Ultra-Orthodox may not think kindly of us, but other Jews see us as ...read more

Even Sinners Do That

Contributed by Wiley Hughes on Jul 8, 2022

We are all sinners and Christians are just sinners saved by God’s wonderful grace. As redeemed people we should try to live better and love better, not just live and love naturally because even sinners do that. Christians should live and love supernaturally.

How To Get Rid Of Your Enemies

Contributed by Stephen Aram on Apr 14, 2022

The world is torn apart by people reacting to their enemies in ways that just cause further provocation and pain. We all need to know God's way for responding to those who come at us as enemies.

What do you do when people do nasty things to you? What do you do when things happen like someone treating you like an enemy, hating you, cussing you out, abusing you or stealing your coat? That makes it harder to be a Christian, doesn’t it? Everyone here has had an encounter with someone who is ...read more
