    A look at one of those "Favorite Verses" that is so often used out of context.

    #icandoallthings I was a little disappointed when we put the new carpet in last year, not with the new carpet but with the removal of the old carpet.

    Intro: One of the favorite songs for many Christians is the song MANSION OVER THE HILLTOP

    There was a time when Christians sung this song over and over again in their churches because they were excited about heaven. But some churches can not remember the last time when they sung this song about heaven. WHAT HAS CAUSED THIS CHANGE? The reason many no longer preach, teach and sing ...read more

     | 9,610 views

    James speaks abruptly to believers who recognize status. This message teaches that all people matter because the ground is level at the cross.

    All People Matter To God James 2:1-12 * Let’s begin tonight by reviewing our “Core Values”. 1) The Bible is our guide book. 2) God loves us and has a plan for us. 3) All People matter to God. 4) We seek to honor God in all we do. 5) The Local church (that’s us) is the hope of the world.

    Isaac and Rebekah had favourite sons, but what about GOD! Does He have FAVOURITES? In Romans 9:13 (NASB) God says "JACOB I LOVED, BUT ESAU I HATED."

    Genesis 25:23-34 - DOES GOD HAVE FAVOURITES? From birth ESAU has thick red hair over his body. Esau means "Hairy". His twin brother JACOB has an unfortunate name too. It means "to defraud, deceive, to displace". His name carries the idea of displacing someone, to replace or unseat someone. As ...read more

    Contributed by Bill Butsko on Sep 3, 2009
    based on 3 ratings
     | 4,766 views

    Favoring one person over another indicates failure to follow Jesus’ example of how to treat people.

    Text: “But if you show partiality, you commit sin, and are convicted by the law as transgressors” (James 2:9). There is a wonderful old story by John Denver about a man invited to a fancy banquet. He arrived wearing simple clothing and was told to get out and go in the kitchen door for a handout. ...read more

    Moses needed 13 trains of food, water, & wood. Then they want meat! Will God still work miracles? Yes, because the Blood hasn't lost its power, the Holy Spirit hasn't been withdrawn, Jesus conquered all, the Word can't return void & God is for you!

    THE LORD’S ARM IS NOT SHORTENED Num. 11:23 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: THE AGGIE AND THE SHEEP 1. An Aggie was really tired of being made fun of, so he decided to take off his Texas A & M shirt and start wearing an SHSU shirt. 2.

    This section assumes the rich and the poor’s understanding that appears at other places in James and reflects the influence of the reception of the poor by Jesus in the exhortation not to show partiality in the church.

    Lesson Text: James 2:1-4 (KJV) 1My brethren, have not the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory, with respect of persons. 2For if there come unto your assembly a man with a gold ring, in goodly apparel, and there come in also a poor man in vile raiment; 3And ye have respect to him ...read more

    If you ask people what their favorite SEASON is most folks will answer that it is SPRING or FALL.

    Why? Because these two seasons give us a mixture of WINTER and SUMMER at the same time. That is; in these seasons it is not TOO HOT nor is it TOO COLD. However, if you ask people what their FAVORITE THOLIDAY is, overwhelmingly many would say -- CHRISTMAS. It is a time when it seems everyone ...read more

    This little psalm along with the Lord’s Prayer may be the most well-known passage in the Bible, and it is definitely the world’s favorite psalm, since it is the favorite of Jew, Eastern Orthodox, Western Protestant, and wistful agnostic alike.

    May 16, 2014 Tom Lowe Title: A FEAST OF GRACE Psalm 23 (KJV) 1 The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. 2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. 3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. 4 Yea, though I ...read more
