     | 75 views

    Explore the devil's deception and destruction, and God's deliverance, using the example of how Jesus was misunderstood and maligned during His time on Earth.

    Good morning, Church family! Today we're going to delve into some heavy stuff. We're going to be talking about the Devil's deception, his destruction, but fear not, we'll also be discussing God's beautiful deliverance. This reminds me of a quote by A.W. Tozer, "The devil is a better theologian than ...read more

    Contributed by Rick Macdonald on Aug 8, 2001
    based on 44 ratings
     | 4,042 views

    The gift of tongues and its companion gift of interpretation are often misunderstood and misapplied, and it’s no surprise they are often called “the least of the gifts.”

    The Baptism with the Holy Spirit - part 3 THE GIFTS CONCERNING TONGUES Text: 1 Corinthians 12:10 August 27, 2000 By: Pastor Rick MacDonald ILLUSTRATION: Dwight L.

    Moses obeyed God, but the intial reaction was Pharoah’s orders and the Hebrews’ backlash. Sometimes we get misunderstood too. But hang in there anyway!

    Good Intentions – Exodus 5-6 At their school carnival, our kids won four free goldfish (lucky us!), so out I went Saturday morning to find an aquarium. The first few I priced ranged from $40 to $70. Then I spotted it—right in the aisle: a discarded 10-gallon display tank, complete with gravel ...read more

    Wouldn't it be nice if all the money the church gave went to me, the vicar.....? Oh, have I misunderstood what giving is about?

    sermon on Acts 4:32-37 (the Believers share their posessions) and Luke 18:18-30 (the rich ruler) Years ago, it was the custom for people to bring their gifts to the front of the church.

    This sermon illustrates how those on the crowd of Jesus's triumphant entry misunderstood the significance of the way He entered riding on a donkey.

    EXPECTATION AND IDENTITY (Palm Sunday 2012) Text: Mark 11:1 – 11 Mark 11:1-11  And when they came nigh to Jerusalem, unto Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount of Olives, he sendeth forth two of his disciples,  (2)  And saith unto them, Go your way into the village over ...read more

    The Grace Of God Series

     | 12,600 views

    The grace of God is an often misunderstood subject in churches today. Are we saved by grace or works? How does God's grace save the believer?

    Defining God's Grace What are we talking about when we talk about the grace of God? Grace is a word that has much used, much misused, and much abused word in Christian Theology. People talk more and more nowadays about God’s grace and completely miss the justice of God, and in so doing ...read more

    There are many things about being a Christian that have been misunderstood, misquoted, and have misled people. Perhaps one of the greatest misunderstandings is the subject of faith.

    What Is Church?

    Contributed by Greg Nance on May 3, 2011
     | 6,105 views

    This may be one of the most misunderstood concepts in the Christian faith. A look into the word of God in Matthew brings to light the amazing calling that Jesus intends for us.

    What is Church? Listen to Matthew 16:13-28. Pay attention to how Jesus describes "Church," his path, and our relationship with Him. Matthew 16:18 gives us the first mention of the English word “church” in the New Testament. In all of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John this word “church” only occurs ...read more

    No other word in the English language is so misused or misunderstood as the word LOVE. Looking to the Bible we can see what God says Love is.

    What is Love? With Valentine’s Day approaching, I thought it would be best to use this Sunday for the Fruit of the Spirit, which is Love. What is Love?

    Understanding The Sovereignty Of God Isaiah 46:1-10 See: Vs.9-10 God clearly states that He is the only true God and none other.

    Sixth Commandment (6 Of 12)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 14, 2022
     | 1,222 views

    This is the shortest of all of the commandments and so simple that even a small child could understand it. However, in our society today this simple commandment is misunderstood by some.

    For example, some carry this so far as to apply "Thou shalt not kill” to the killing of insects. Illus: Let me ask you something, if I see a fly on the table and I walk into the other room, get the fly swat, and carefully walk back to where the fly is, raise the fly swat in such a way as ...read more
