    Suppose You Were The Devil

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 22, 2022
     | 1,984 views

    On some of the talk shows, like “Hannity and Colmes” on the Fox News Channel, we hear folks debating things and now and then they come to a topic that they both agree on.

    To make the debate more exciting, one of them will say, "Let me play the devil’s advocate and ask you this question.” Then they will state the opposing view, to add some life to the debate. As believers, we all agree on many things when it comes to God, the Bible, and the church. Let me ...read more

    Whom Will You Meet In Heaven? Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Nov 7, 2022
     | 2,302 views

    There is so much speculation about heaven but we have very little to go on in the word. People express the hope of heaven being a reunion and we look at that. Whom do you want to meet in heaven? That is what we will consider here. Heaven could be very close.

    Whom will YOU meet in heaven? INTRODUCTION Talk to Christians about heaven and what that will be like, and you have so many variant answers. That is normal, for none of us knows any details and a lot of what we think is more in line with our own assumptions. What will you do there? Will we ...read more

    The Righteousness Of Job

    Contributed by Scott Coltrain on Sep 5, 2002
    based on 69 ratings
     | 28,021 views

    Everyone has heard of the patience or endurance of Job. However, we often forget that Job’s greatest attribute, according to God, was his righteousness. In this study, we will examine Job’s righteousness and see how we can and should imitate it.

    One of the most extraordinary people found in the Old Testament is Job. I think that multitudes, including many who are not overly knowledgeable about the Bible, has heard of the "patience or endurance of Job". Of course, this refers to the fact that - in a short span of time - Job lost his ...read more
