American Idols July 4 Sermon

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 6, 2022

America has become the land of idolatry. But before I make that claim, I need to make sure that I have the right definition of idolatry.

Illus: Dr. Billy Graham says, "We usually think of an idol as a religious figure carved of wood or stone, perhaps in some primitive tribe far removed from civilization. But we have our "idols" today, because an idol is anything that you worship in place of the living God. Some ...read more

Sermon: How Do You See The Future

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Oct 1, 2024

Wake Up! Jesus Is Coming!

Contributed by John Gaston on Nov 15, 2024

We’re look at NINE SIGNS OF THE SOON COMING OF JESUS that have never happened before. These are signs that, if we’re not braindead, ought to be like flashing lights or sirens wailing – warning us to “all-hands-on-deck” readiness for the Second Coming.

WAKE UP! JESUS IS COMING! Rom. 13:11-14 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. I heard about these two men, Archie & Jack, who’d debated their whole lives whether Jesus was white or whether He was black.

The Book Of Lamentations – Part 6 – Enemies Rejoice – What Goes Around Comes Around – Chapter 1:21-2:1 Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Mar 6, 2025

What happened to Judah long ago has ramifications for us today. No one can walk over the Jewish people and be guiltless. Those who rejoice over Israel's suffering will be held accountable. Judah laments its desolation and groans in rejection.

THE BOOK OF LAMENTATIONS – PART 6 – ENEMIES REJOICE – WHAT GOES AROUND COMES AROUND – CHAPTER 1:21-2:1 This world thinks there are no consequences and it’s a bonus when you get away with it, or don’t get caught. Bad news! Everything is on record. We are going to look at some serious matters ...read more

The Lions In Daniel's Den Series

Contributed by David Dykes on Oct 15, 2006

Daniel gives us a great example of how we ought to live and behave. Just as he was a child of God living in a foreign, pagan culture, you and I are children of God living in a culture that is becoming less and less Christian with each passing day.

INTRODUCTION The title of this series from Daniel is “Turning Chaos into Character.” In chapter one, Daniel refused to eat the king’s rich food. He went on what I call the “Daniel Diet.” In chapter two, the king saw a vision of a multi-metallic statue representing Gentile Kingdoms. Here in chapter ...read more

Defiant Prayer Series

Contributed by J. D. Greear on Jul 9, 2013

3 things about Daniel’s prayer: Daniels’s Discipline of prayer; Daniel’s Defiance through prayer; and Daniel’s Endurance in prayer.

Prayer is the most undervalued resource of the church. The Bible teaches us that all the blessings that God wants to bestow on us, he does so through prayer. Prayer is the conduit by which his power comes into our lives and into our families. o John Wesley, pioneer of the Great ...read more

The Absurdity Of Christmas

Contributed by Denn Guptill on Dec 8, 2003

If you stop and really think about the Christmas story it’s rather bizarre, how come?

The Absurdity of Christmas Imagine that you are standing out in your driveway marvelling at the fact that it’s the first weekend in December and you haven’t had to shovel yet. In your imagination you do not live in Cape Breton or New York, suddenly an UFO lands in the middle of your front lawn and ...read more

Taking Christ With You

Contributed by Melvin Newland on Aug 1, 2002

For most Americans Labor Day is a holiday & in the opinion of some it’s the most hypocritical holiday of all. But today, instead of considering our jobs drudgery, I want us to look at them as challenging opportunities.
