    Cleanliness (Leviticus)

    Contributed by Scott Jensen on Jul 31, 2019
     | 4,855 views

    The Israelites were taught to use water, a waiting period, and sacrifice to cleanse themselves. We too have the gifts of water (baptism), savior of all time and the final sacrifice.

    Opening and Introduction I grew up in West Texas in a place called Big Spring. It’s a small town with tumbleweeds, oil wells, and loose dust that turns into a dust storm when the wind really starts blowing. One of our really big problems was water, and the water that we had was really hard. If ...read more

    By Faith, Abel offered a more acceptable sacrifice than Cain did. But what does that mean? What made the sacrifice more acceptable? And what can that mean for us?

    OPEN: I read from a Children’s book the story of Cain and Abel. You know, it’s odd - we ALL seem to know the story about Cain and Abel. But Cain gets more “PRESS” from Scripture than Abel does. Cain is mentioned in 18 verses but Abel ONLY gets 11 verses (about 1/3 less attention). But the PRESS ...read more

    Sermon # 3 - Shadow Versus The Truth Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Feb 28, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 190 views

    In the Old Testament there were shadows of things that were fulfilled only through Christ in the New Testament. As we live in a world where truth is overshadowed by falsehood, let us hold firmly to God and His word so we can walk and live by the truth.

    We read in Philippians 4:8, Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things. (ESV) The above mentioned verse ...read more

    Selflessness seems to be a lost virtue. Nonetheless, it is essential that believers make the sacrifice to bring others to the feet of Jesus. At whatever cost.

    Cowboys Versus Farmers?

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Sep 28, 2013
    based on 6 ratings
     | 4,467 views

    It is our attitude, not our sacrifices, that reflects the nature of the man within.

    COWBOYS VERSUS FARMERS? Genesis 4:1-8. The acceptance of Abel’s offering as opposed to Cain’s is often explained in terms of THE NATURE OF THE SACRIFICE. We are reminded that “almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood, there is no remission” (Hebrews ...read more

    Could Mary Have Been Stoned For Adultery?

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Nov 3, 2021
     | 5,061 views

    The title question leads us into a deeper appreciation of the sacrifice that Joseph made in standing with Mary.

    A QUESTION: Could Mary have been stoned for adultery? - Matthew 1:18-19. - This is a question that has bugged me for a while. If Mary is presumed to be an adulteress, could she have been stoned?
