    In Christ (#2)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 29, 2022
     | 1,147 views

    As we preach through Ephesians we find it is not a difficult book to UNDERSTAND.

    Illus: Speaking of things DIFFICULT TO UNDERSTAND reminds me of the story of the man who was walking on the beach one day and he came across a bottle. He kicked it and a “Genie” came swooping out. The “Genie” thanked him for releasing him from the bottle and told the man he was so thankful that ...read more

    Today we are going to begin preaching our way through the book of Ephesians. The title of this series of sermons is “IN CHRIST.”

    As we embark on this study we will see how we who are IN CHRIST have riches the lost world knows nothing about. It is sad enough that sinners know nothing about these “riches,” but sadder still is the fact that even many Christians do not know of the riches they have IN CHRIST. Illus: When I ...read more

    The Deity Of Christ

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 4, 2022
     | 1,940 views

    Something we Christians have always taken for granted as we witnessed to the lost is the deity of Christ.

    That is, as we talked to sinners we would take it for granted that they understood that Jesus was the son of Mary and Joseph, but more important, that He is the DIVINE SON OF GOD. In past years very seldom have we come across anyone who did not believe this Biblical truth. However, this is ...read more

    Advent is a celebration of hope concerning the arrival of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. This message looks at the meaning of Advent by discussing the symbolism of the Advent wreath and the multi-colored candles.

    I have entitled our message this morning “The Advent of Christ.” This coming Wednesday evening we will be decorating the Christmas tree in preparation for the Christmas season. In many churches across America, decorating the sanctuary, which is sometimes called “Hanging the Greens,” is the ...read more

    There is a lot we can for Jesus if we will let him use us for his name sake.

    FOR CHRIST SAKE As believers we may have to endure trails. Persecution Matthew 5:11Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake. ...read more

    The Bread Of Christ

    When we take the bread, we are partaking of Jesus Christ. We are saying, “Yes, I believe you are the Bread of Life.” Jesus, Himself, is the nourishment that gives us eternal life.

    The Bread of Christ I am the bread of life. - John 6:48 The first electric toaster appeared in 1909. It toasted one side at a time and required you to pull the plug once it was done. The first automatic electric toaster was designed in 1919 by Charles Strite, a man sick and tired of burned toast. ...read more

    Progress became a secular god, a new form of hope for secular man in the 19th century, a progress that would lead to freedom. It was not to be.

    Monday of 2nd Week in Lent The call of Jesus in Matthew, which we heard at Mass on Saturday, was to “be perfect, as the heavenly Father.” In Luke’s redaction we heard today, the call is to “be merciful, as the heavenly Father.” If we understand that the root meaning of perfection is ...read more

    If we desire to impact our community for Jesus Christ, then we need to be unified. Using the illustration of the church as a human body, Paul shared how a church that is divided will fail to function properly; or perhaps, even fail to survive.

    “A father asked his young son to break a bundle of sticks. He returned a little later to find the boy frustrated in the task. He had raised the bundle high and smashed it on his knee, but he only bruised his knee. He had set the bundle against a wall and stomped real hard with his foot, but the ...read more

    Independence Day: In God we find the basis for national freedom, or physical freedom; however, we also find in the Lord the basis for our spiritual freedom. God’s provision for our spiritual freedom is found in His one and only Son, Jesus Christ.

    According to Mark Parsec, Independence Day “celebrates America’s Declaration of Independence from the tyranny of England under King George the III.”(1) The signing of the Declaration of Independence in 1776, he says, was not intended to declare war with England, nor did it procure our country’s ...read more

    You are the body of Christ. You are created and designed to carry out God’s plan. This is the responsibility that God has given to the church: to pray, to fast, to give, to nurture, and raise up the next generation of the body of Christ.

    Christ and the Church Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it. (Ephesians 5:25) Genesis lays out God's blueprint. It lays out His pattern for His design of both male and female. We meditated on this topic last week. In the modern era today, ...read more

    What is at the center of Jesus's ministry? Many believe the center is Love.

    The Center of Christ Matthew 22:34-40 • Jesus silenced the Sadducees is where are texts begins, • Jesus enters Jerusalem, cleanses the Temple, heals the blind the lame and cause the dead to be raised, • Pharisees and Sadducees cast doubt to the people about Jesus’s authority.

    In past years very seldom have we come across anyone who did not believe this Biblical truth. However, this is something we can no longer take for granted. Why? At least two things have caused the general public to turn away from these eternal truths. MANY DO NOT BELIEVE IN THE DEITY OF CHRIST… ...read more

    Jesus is no mirage, and His resurrection proves it. Jesus gives us the living water of life. He is the oasis that replaces the mirages of this world. Therefore, let's quit falling for the fake, and start living the truth of God through Christ Jesus our Lord.
