God's Zeal For His People

Contributed by Efren V. Narido on Apr 9, 2009

Will God save everyone? Just what is the zeal of God for His people?

Will God save everyone? Others believe and teach that everyone will be saved. They argue that those who reject God during this present age would choose to follow God in the next life. Surely, it could appeal in our human heart, but where do we find such kind of teaching in God’s Word? Rather, ...read more

From Major Mess To Masterpiece - You Are One Of God's Greatest Miracles

Contributed by Daniel Habben on Mar 24, 2009

(Theme adapted from theme by Rob Willis.)

What’s the greatest miracle in the Bible? The crossing of the Red Sea by the Israelites? The feeding of the 5,000 by Jesus? I suppose it depends how you define “greatest.” If you mean what single miracle had the largest impact, you’d have to say Jesus’ resurrection is the greatest miracle. Because ...read more

Tiptoeing Through The Tulip’s

Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Oct 3, 2023

In this message, we will take an honest and objective look at the foundational Pillars of Calvinism, the doctrine of salvation, and what critics say in counterpoint to them.

The most dominant school of thought in the Church today is Reformed Theology, also known as Calvinism, which primarily adheres to the theological traditions and teachings of John Calvin and other preachers of the Reformation era who broke from the Roman Catholic Church in the 16th century, but not ...read more

The Game Of Mutually Assured Destruction Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Jan 11, 2015

It's one game board, but two games. Checkers and Chess are not only played differently, but they illustrate for me the difference between how the world deals with conflict and how God would have us do so. Do you know the difference?

OPEN: (We showed a picture of a checker board on the overhead) What is this game? That’s right, it’s a checkers game. How many of you have ever played checkers? (almost everyone held up their hands) You know, I did not realize it until I began my research for this morning’s ...read more

PARABLES OF JESUS ǀ THE TENANTS Scott Bayles, pastor Blooming Grove Christian Church: 3/2/14 Most of us are pretty familiar with product warning labels.

Sign Of The Times

Contributed by Rodney Burton on Jan 27, 2009

An alarming look at Romans 1 and how society lines up with God’s warnings here.

 In and through creation, the evidence of God is clear.  Man has absolutely no excuse about believing or knowing whether or not there is a god.  The only reason there is ever a question about God and His existence is because the wickedness of man has suppressed the knowledge ...read more

The Ten Commandments Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 18, 2021

When you appear before a holy God, you would no more approach Him than you would walk into shark-infested waters. When God appears in front of you and you tremble in awestruck fear, it is a wise thing to call for a mediator to stand between you and He.

Today we begin a new series entitled simply, The Ten Commandments. Today’s Scripture And God spoke all these words, saying, 2 “I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery. 3 “You shall have no other gods before me. 4 “You shall not make for ...read more

Psalms 58 And 109 Series

Contributed by Sam Mccormick on Mar 5, 2020

The outrage expressed in passages in these psalms are examples of times David seemed to be "fed up" with his enemies. He pours out his fury to God, not intending for his Father to act on the ills he calls for, but for God to see the passion poisoning his heart and send relief.

For Sermon Central researchers: I have posted a series of 15 sermons on the Psalms. In recent personal studies I have found the psalms to be richer and more thought-provoking than I had fully appreciated. I had too often swept swiftly through psalms without slowing down to inquire as thoroughly as ...read more

Complaints Against A Gracious God

Contributed by Michael Stark on Aug 17, 2023

It is a vain and futile thing to complain against God Who is gracious. A study of the descent of Israel into complaining serves to warn us against charging God with error.

“They sinned still more against [God], rebelling against the Most High in the desert. They tested God in their heart by demanding the food they craved. They spoke against God, saying, 'Can God spread a table in the wilderness? He struck the rock so that water gushed out and streams ...read more
