To Fail, To Fall, To Finish

Contributed by Luther Sexton on Feb 24, 2019

However, it clear from Scripture and history that many have perished, are perishing, and will perish. Only those who fight a good fight and finish their course will be saved.

The Faith That God Favors

Contributed by Donnie Martin on Aug 31, 2004

Biblical faith always has God as it’s objective and focus. Therefore the type of faith that God favors is a faith that trusts God for the impossible, then persists in that godly trust until the provision is realized.

THE FAITH THAT GOD FAVORS Text: Matt.9: 29; Matt.15: 28 Intro: What kind of faith does God favor? The obvious answer to that question is, “Real faith.” However, faith is as much a matter of cultivation as it is choice. Though faith begins with one’s choice to trust God, it is developed ...read more

Always Choose God's Grace Series

Contributed by Paul Clemente on Apr 6, 2009

Because God is a Gracious God, He will love every person, whether that person is like Jacob who was promised by God, or ordinary people like Leah, Rachel, and Laban; but every person can choose to separate from God’s blessings.

Last week, we learned about God’s grace through 2 women, Leah and Rachel. We noted that biblical grace is undeserved favor. Let us learn more about this gracious God through 2 men, Jacob and Laban.

How Do We Live By Faith? Series

Contributed by Paul Clemente on Feb 10, 2009

The righteous shall live by faith and God teaches us how to live by faith through Abraham, Abraham’s Chief Servant, and Rebekah.
