    God's Hate List

    Contributed by Paul Robinson on Oct 4, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,642 views

    There are probably some things you really hate, but did you know that God also has some things He hates? We should hate what He hates.

    There are some things in life I really hate. I hate traffic (mainly because I hate waiting). I hate the dentist. I hate going to the doctor for a physical. I hate the government and their agenda to take away our freedom. Did you know that God also has a hate list? Text: Proverbs 6:16-19. 1. A ...read more

    God's Word Is Perfect Series

    Contributed by Paul Robinson on Oct 4, 2022
     | 3,947 views

    Everything in life has flaws, that is, everything except the Bible! God's Word is perfect for three distinct reasons, and these reasons will change the way you look at your Bible.

    God’s Word is perfect because its author is perfect. Deut. 32:4-- “He is the Rock, his work is perfect: for all his ways are judgment: a God of truth and without iniquity, just and right is he.” Like a rock, God is firm and immovable. His work has always been perfect, from the very beginning of ...read more

    Good Works Or Good Grief

    Contributed by Paul Robinson on Oct 4, 2022
     | 3,584 views

    What part do good works play in the Christian life? We're not saved by them (thank the Lord), but is it important to do them? And what qualifies as good works anyway?

    Opening Illustration: giving to charities (Salvation Army) during Christmas season Notice in this passage that everything mentioned is God’s doing, except the very last phrase. We are to be zealous of good works. Zealous (Gr. zelotes)—most eagerly desirous of a thing As we look at this survey ...read more

    Growing Pains

    Contributed by Paul Robinson on Oct 4, 2022
     | 1,754 views

    Growing in the Christian life is not always easy. In fact, there are growing pains, but these are necessary if you want to mature. This passage gives three specific areas in which to grow.

    Main theme of this passage: growing in your walk with God. Verses 1-2. You’ve received the truth of how to grow in your walk with God. It begins with faith. But there are other areas in which we can grow. This passage gives us three ways to grow in our walk with God. 1. Grow in your Abstinence (v. ...read more

    Belonging At The King's Table Series

    Contributed by Paul Robinson on Sep 14, 2022
     | 3,619 views

    I love this story! It’s a story of incredible, undeserved kindness. We live in a harsh world, and while there are stories of kindness out there, it’s far too uncommon. The world will show kindness to its own, but we are called to show kindness to anyone and everyone, even our enemies. But why?

    1. Mephibosheth Who was Mephiboshet? —Background: II Sam. 4:4 —He was a cripple. Our culture has changed certain words, such as “lame” or “dumb.” Mephibosheth was a cripple, that is, he was lame. —He was Jonathan’s son. As you’ll recall, Jonathan was David’s best friend. He deserved death, ...read more

    Belonging In A Better Place Series

    Contributed by Paul Robinson on Sep 14, 2022
     | 2,332 views

    King Saul had just died. David had been anointed king for the second time. Now he looked at the city of Jerusalem (a Jebusite stronghold) and said to himself, "I"m going to take that city. That is where I belong as the King of Israel."

    This story unfolds in four main points: 1. David’s Desire for Jerusalem (v. 6a) It’s interesting that the Bible does not say anything about David’s desire to take Jerusalem. Verse 6 simply says, “And the king and his men went to Jerusalem unto the Jebusites.” However, David was a conqueror, and ...read more

    Belonging In The Father's House Series

    Contributed by Paul Robinson on Sep 14, 2022
     | 1,955 views

    The parable of the Prodigal Son is an amazing story, one of love, abandonment, and grace. It is the story of one man’s journey to find his ultimate fulfillment only to realize that the fulfillment was right there at home all along.

    We see in this story three specific destinations: Destination 1: The Far Country (v. 13) The far country represents the world and all of its attractions. It looks so alluring with all of its big lit-up signs. “Pleasures!” “Do whatever you want!” “Follow your heart!” “Join us, we will show you a ...read more

    Belonging In The Will Of God Series

    Contributed by Paul Robinson on Sep 15, 2022
     | 2,493 views

    One of the most sought-after things in the Christian life is the will of God. What is God’s will for my life? How do I know that I’m in the will of God? What if God’s will for me is something I really don’t like? These are common questions, and maybe you have asked them yourself.

    WHAT GOD'S WILL IS NOT 1. God’s will is not something that you find For some reason we tend to have this idea that we must discover God’s will for our lives. That’s not how it works. God is the one who finds YOU. Abraham did not choose God; God chose Abraham. David did not choose to become ...read more

    A Clear Conscience

    Contributed by Paul Robinson on Sep 15, 2022
     | 1,769 views

    Webster’s Dictionary defines the conscience as “an inner feeling or voice viewed as acting as a guide to the rightness or wrongness of one’s behavior.” The conscience is something God has given every person--an alarm that sounds inside you, which often leads to feelings of guilt or shame.

    Three Kinds of Conscience: 1. A Clear Conscience — the alarm is working properly Acts 23:1, “And Paul, earnestly beholding the council, said, Men and brethren, I have lived in all good conscience before God until this day.” Acts 24:16, “And herein do I exercise myself, to have always a ...read more

    A Little Child

    Contributed by Paul Robinson on Sep 15, 2022
     | 1,315 views

    Solomon called himself a little child. In this statement he showed both humility and honesty. The truth is, we can all call ourselves little children. And we should!

    Why did Solomon compare himself to a little child? 1. He was young 2. He was inexperienced 3. He wanted wisdom and understanding His request for wisdom pleased God, and God gave him that plus so much more. We can also ask for wisdom, and are invited to do so. James 1:5-- “If any of you lack ...read more

    A Little Group That Made A Big Difference

    How did these men turn the world upside down? What was their secret?

    Acts 4:13--The secret was that they spent time with Jesus. The 12 apostles reached the entire known world with the gospel. These were not extraordinary men. Matt. 10:1-4. Peter, Andrew, James, John, and Philip were fishermen. Matthew was a tax collector. Simon was in a group called the ...read more

    Addicted To The Ministry

    Contributed by Paul Robinson on Sep 15, 2022
     | 3,478 views

    We tend to think of negative things when we think of addictions, but there can also be good addictions. For example, I’m addicted to oxygen. Men, if you’re addicted to your wife, that’s a good thing. Women, it’s great to be addicted to your husband. But what about ministry?

    Did you know that a huge addiction is sweeping across our nation? People are addicted to their smart phones! They have to constantly be checking facebook, Twitter, their email, YouTube, Pinterest, or texting. Listen to these startling statistics: —The National Safety Council reports that cell ...read more

     | 1,997 views

    Surveys show that 94% of Americans own a Bible; 90% of us believe it still applies today—yet only half of us read it weekly (including church), and only 29% read it weekly outside of church. There is a disconnect here.

    Backtrack To The Bible Series

    Contributed by Paul Robinson on Sep 15, 2022
     | 1,977 views

    When dealing with perilous times brought on by a corrupt culture, the Apostle Paul knew the answer: it was to go back to godly living and the foundation of truth as found in the Word of God. This was his counsel to Timothy in II Timothy 3.

    Our culture has long been going in the wrong direction. We have made great progress in technology, but it has also been our undoing. Existentialism and Post-modernism have taught us to focus on ourselves and selfishly pursue our own desires despite the consequences. Instead of the church affecting ...read more

    Beware Of Stumblingblocks

    Contributed by Paul Robinson on Sep 16, 2022
     | 2,005 views

    Have you ever tripped someone…on purpose? Perhaps it was a joke, but you still tripped them. Have you ever tripped someone by accident? Perhaps you weren’t looking where you were going and ended up getting in someone’s way, and they tripped right over you.

    If you’re not careful, you will do the same thing in your Christian life. You will trip up your brothers and sisters in Christ without realizing it. When you do this, whether on purpose or by accident, you have become a stumblingblock, and this is what the Apostle Paul deals with in I Corinthians ...read more
