    God’s Pleasure, Our Purpose Series

    Contributed by Patrick Nix on Aug 10, 2010
    based on 7 ratings
     | 6,604 views

    When life isn’t satisfying, when God is not coming through, when marriage fails, when a good child goes bad, those same people blame God and/or church. What am I saying? Life is so much more! Your spiritual life is so much more! You feel it...a magnetism

    Bill Mallory traveled to India and back to find his life’s purpose - He never found it. He asked at every Chevron - “As you travel, ask us.” He only received a credit application in the mail as a response. You’ll not find it at a gas station, on a talk show, or in a self-help book. You’ll only find ...read more

    Ang diablo ay nagdudulot ng walang kabuluhang mga saloobin, isang kasalanan na nabuo ng iyong kamustahin, at punan ang iyong mga puso ng mga saloobin sa panahon ng pagdarasal.

    walang kabuluhang mga saloobin Bakit hindi nasagot ang ating mga dalangin? Sinisikap ni Satanas na matakpan ang Kristiyano sa gawa ng panalangin, kapag hindi niya ito maiiwasan. Pinapanood niya ang iyong mga galaw at nasa iyong takong saan ka man lumingon. Kung nag-iisip ka ng ...read more

    Regurgitationalistics

    Contributed by G W Bill Elliott Jr on Nov 27, 2019
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,054 views

    Have you noticed that we tend to get all caught up communicating and sharing thoughts, ideas, “news and information” and that we easily fall into the trap of just being talking-heads… mostly... just regurgitating thoughts and ideas, but not actually contributing.

    Man has never invented a single thing (as of this writing)… ever never… nothing new… never… not one new element has been introduced into life. All we’ve done is ‘assemble’ things to be something else, and we call it ‘inventing’. Semantics, I know… but our thoughts and the many things we voice ...read more

    Everything You Wanted To Know About Revenge But Never Thought You'd Hear In Series

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Dec 2, 2004
    based on 45 ratings
     | 6,388 views

    The desire for revenge and justice is part of being in God’s image. But, because sin corrupts us, and because our lives are intended to center around God, we must defer revenge (and sometimes justice) to Him.

    Everything You Wanted to Know About Revenge But Never Thought You’d Hear in Church (Romans 12:14, 17-21) 1. Today’s sermon has little to do with the subject of forgiveness. 2. The Bible is clear that forgiveness is crucial to the Christian life; it is the hallmark of our faith. 3. Not long ...read more

    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Jan 31, 2020
    based on 6 ratings
     | 5,131 views

    Christians get into endless debates about free will, predestination, losing your salvation vs once-saved-always-saved, getting lost in the complexity of it all.

    Quite often, discussions about theological issues boil down to one side pulling out their list of Scriptures proving their doctrine and the other side pulling out their list of Scriptures to prove their contrary doctrine, and most often, it is whoever has the most extensive list that wins. ...read more
