    Christ: The Fulfillment Of The Law Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Sep 22, 2021
     | 4,289 views

    One cannot have a right relationship with God apart from His righteousness and righteousness is only obtained through the only begotten Son. Once that righteousness is obtained through salvation in Christ, we are obligated to live according to the standard that God’s righteousness demands.

    Christ: The Fulfillment of the Law Matthew 5: 17-20 As we continue our study in this powerful message Jesus preached, we come to a definite shift in His message. He has dealt with the blessedness of life in the Beatitudes and the responsibility of believers as the salt of the earth and the light ...read more

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Aug 8, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 284 views

    There are two groups of people that Jesus spoke about. One who may initially reject God, but later repent and truly turn to God. The other group are those who claim to follow Jesus, but are dichotomous and far from doing the will of God. The question is, ‘Where do we stand?’

    We read in Proverbs 22:29, “Do you see a person who is efficient in his work? He will serve kings. He will not serve unknown people.”(GW) When a person gets a good job, their entry to that job is only the first step. Their goal should be to fulfill the expectations of their superiors, and to ...read more

     | 1,667 views

    Jesus won our hearts, through His love and goodness. He is the perfect king. The king who makes you smile because he always does what’s right. He conquers our hearts through love. And right now many of us here would literally die for him. That’s an amazing thing.

    What does it mean for one to be a King? It is to be unchallenged leader of a nation, or group of nations. There have been many kings and presidents and prime ministers and dictators and leaders on planet Earth. Many have longed for that position, and done anything to get power over ...read more

     | 506 views

    You may have heard the phrase: It’s my way or the high way! But, if we want to love better, we must remember… The “high” way is to not seek my way.

    God’s interest isn’t limited to whether or not you are swearing falsely. God’s interest is in whether or not you are speaking falsely.

    I’ve been racking my brains all week to find a lead-in to this week’s commandment without referring to politics. But I keep coming back to it like a moth to a candle. At least we’re no longer right in the middle of actual accusations of perjury... but the question of truth vs. political advantage ...read more

    This commandment teaches us that keeping our hands off our neighbor’s things is as important as keeping our hands off our neighbor’s neck.

    One of my favorite movies ever is a little gem called “The Gods Must Be Crazy.” It starts out with an idyllic look at society among the stone age tribesmen of the Kalahari desert. They have absolutely no possessions. Not one. Not even so much as a loin cloth. They spend most of their time hunting ...read more

    David Cuts The Corner Of Saul's Garment In The Cave Series

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Mar 19, 2023
     | 2,367 views

    David didn’t kill Saul, but he’s even upset that he cut off a corner of his robe. How could he do this to the one God has placed as king? This is a man with a very strong conscience.

    Have you ever had something really bad happen, and you wonder to yourself? How could God let this happen? Why is this happening? Or maybe you think, I can’t handle this. You feel overwhelmed. What do we do when we feel overwhelmed? We get through it. We let ourselves feel it. And we get through ...read more

    Measure Upon Measure – Curse – The Restoration Of God - Part 5 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jun 28, 2025
     | 202 views

    Sin produces cursing. Through the Fall in the garden of Eden, the serpent was cursed. Then the ground and creation was cursed. That is why life is so difficult in many ways. We trace that theme. Then the Law of Moses cursed the keeper, but Christ became a curse for sinners.

    MEASURE UPON MEASURE – CURSE – THE RESTORATION OF GOD - Part 5 CHAPTER THREE - THE THIRD CONSEQUENCE The third CONSEQUENCE of man’s sin through the fall has resulted in a vast array of problems on this earth. It is bordering on the impossible with our confinement to the present world ...read more

    Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Nov 24, 2025
     | 79 views

    So instead of boasting, we can and should be thankful. Thankful that what God did at Calvary is enough for us. Thankful that the price Jesus paid for our sins was the right price. Thankful that when Jesus said it was finished, He meant it.
