The Book Of Hebrews: Old Testament Meets The New In Christ

Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Dec 28, 2021

Many think of Romans when they think about a systematic theology of Christianity. But there is another book that speaks forth systematic theology in my view, the book of Hebrews.

“As the name imports, Systematic Theology has for its object the gathering of all that the Scriptures teach as to what we are to believe and do, and the presenting of all the elements of this teaching in a symmetrical system. The human mind must seek unity in all its knowledge...The method of ...read more

Batter Sin's Strongholds

Contributed by Dennis King on Jul 24, 2021

If you hear of sin and do nothing, you are sinning yourself.

For though we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world does. The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they (our weapons) have divine power to demolish strongholds. We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of ...read more

Contributed by John Gaston on Aug 1, 2021

Pharaoh tried 4 compromises to keep Israel slaves of sin, but Moses said, "We won't leave one hoof behind!" We shouldn't leave one SIN unconquered, one BLESSING unclaimed, or one SOUL unsaved!

The Call To Discipleship Part 1: Not For The Faint-Hearted Series

Contributed by Doug Fannon on Aug 9, 2021

No where in Scripture does it say that being a disciple of Jesus will be easy. All Scripture references are from the NASB.

Rarely do you hear of people who feel called to a church because of what they can contribute vice ...read more

The Roots Of Faith

Contributed by Derek Geldart on Aug 15, 2021

Having the roots of total submission and thanksgiving for His undying love as our Lord, Savior and King leads to sacrificial living that brings honor and glory to His name! O to have the faith as tiny as a mustard seed!

The Call To Rebuild

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Aug 19, 2021

God is calling the church to rebuild after the Corona Virus pandemic lock-downs. But amidst the challenges, it takes uncommon trust and surrender to tackle what God is asking. This message can be re-worked for a building program.

Someone once said, “Build. Destroy. Rebuild. I’ve mastered the art of bouncing back. Now, to master the art of not having to” (Dau Voire). This is probably how a lot of us feel. We’re tired of striving and struggling, and we’re tired of having to rebuild. But rebuilding is necessary in order ...read more

Of Whom The World Was Not Worthy Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Aug 28, 2021

The Bible has always been honest with us about the potential dangers of discipleship. It speaks of the real possibilities of abuse, prison and even death. Is there ever a time when it's NOT worth it to be a Christian?
