Walking In The Fear Of The Lord

Contributed by Kyle Campbell on Jun 1, 2022

In writing about the early church, Luke recorded that they walked in the “fear of the Lord” (Acts 9:31). This is the only time this expression occurs in the New Testament, although it occurs twenty-six times in the Old Testament (NKJV).

Salvation

Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Jun 1, 2022

In the Bible, temporal salvation is often a rescue from such circumstances as enemy attack, slavery, calamity and sickness. Eternal salvation is deliverance from death (Romans 6:23; Hebrews 5:7; James 5:20) and hell (Matthew 10:28; Jude 1:23).

What Is Your True Destiny

Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on Jun 7, 2022

There is a great deal of talk about destiny, yet you may miss your true destiny by failing to be content and seeking for a great position when God wants to make you great in your current position.

Confirmation

Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Jun 22, 2022

Is confirmation biblical? Does it have anything to do with the biblical doctrine of laying on of hands?

Infant baptism is neither mandated nor forbidden in the New Testament but has forerunners in the Old Testament. In adult baptism, water and laying on of hands occur as one ceremony. Infant baptism often separates the use of water and laying on of hands by many years. The author of Hebrews teaches ...read more

Taking Heed To God's Word Series

Contributed by Richard Tow on Jul 4, 2022

The evidence of our Christian sincerity is demonstrated in the way we treat one another. God's word to His people is that we would love our neighbor as ourselves. Zechariah confronts this matter with a reminder of Israel's historical experience.

In Zechariah 7 a delegation came from the Jews in Bethel asking the question: “Should I mourn and fast in the fifth month, as I have done for so many years?”i During the 70 years of exile in Babylon, the Jews had been observing four fasts in memory of the destruction of Jerusalem. The most ...read more

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jul 9, 2022

Recognition of God precedes intimate contact and mission.

Saturday 14th Week in Course One of the most difficult features of the time in which we were all kept six feet from each other because of an epidemic was that we went about in face coverings. We were kept from intimate conversation because we didn’t recognize most people. Most of us relate ...read more

Do you think this title would be popular? Not at all, we all like to wear the cross as a chain but not carry it in our daily lives.

God Is Love: That's Why He Created Hell

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Aug 18, 2021

This is a revision of a sermon I posted over a year ago on another website. The subject matter is more timely than ever considering the rapid descent into evil and chaos we have witnessed recently. Come quickly, Lord Jesus.

There are some things that are getting more hard to find as the days draw nearer to the LORD'S return, such as ethical politicians, intelligent leftists, happy liberals, competent leadership, and sound Biblical preaching on the reality and horror of a literal, real place called hell.

Valuable Service

Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on Aug 22, 2021

There is no retirement in the Christian life. Your calling is active and valuable to the King until your last breath.

If you are still breathing there is time to do great things for God. Not necessary notable things. You may not get applause from your church, your name in the paper or the key to your city, but you can do great things. God's valuation is far different than man's. Matthew 10:42 And ...read more

03 - Life Series

Contributed by Michael Collins on Aug 23, 2021

This is the 3rd message in a series called Perspectives and this message is about looking at life with God's perspective, rather than with our own.

Hello and welcome back to another message on ‘Perspectives!’ This is the third message, and today I am dealing with the topic of ‘life’ itself. If you were to say to me, “How is life?” I’d say it’s wonderful, and for that I give praise to God. The question, “What is life?” has been asked by so many ...read more

Casey

Contributed by Michael Mays on Aug 27, 2021

While serving at a church in middle Tennessee, I was emailed out of the blue by a young woman names Casey (named change for privacy), who was looking for answers. This sermon is a restructuring of my response to her.

Casey Introduction--Casey’s Story (Saturday, September 28): ?“Hello. My name is Casey. Let me start by letting you know a little about myself as far as religious belief. Growing up I was raised to believe that God and Jesus were our saviors. I went to a Baptist church and was even baptized. As I ...read more

The Real Virus

Contributed by Michael Collins on Sep 2, 2021

This is a message about what I call, 'The Real Virus,' referring to sin.

One of the most widely-used words perhaps since Jan 2020 would be the word, 'Virus,' (in various languages of course). We’ve had to contend with this virus since then, and we still continue to do so. It’s also one of the main causes for fear, anxiety, grief, loss and so much more. It seems ...read more
