    The Sad, Sad Decision Of Cain, The Firstborn Of Adam And Eve (Expanded) – Genesis Chapter 4; Jude 1:12 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Aug 16, 2022
     | 2,049 views

    When Jude deals with the ravenous wolves of the false teachers, his thoughts go to three vile people in the Old Testament. Today I am doing only one of those even though we touched on it in the past. Cain is the disobedient and murderous one. We will examine the story in more detail.

    THE SAD, SAD DECISION OF CAIN, THE FIRSTBORN OF ADAM AND EVE (EXPANDED) – GENESIS CHAPTER 4 Jude 1:12 There was an earlier massage that contained Cain and Korah together. Now Cain alone is expanded. Today we look at Cain. {{Jude 1 v 11 “Woe to them for they have gone the way of Cain, and for ...read more

    Message In 1peter – Number 1 – A Problem That Was Not Solved But Is Solved – 1peter 1:9-12 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on May 9, 2023
     | 1,500 views

    The Old Testament prophets wrote of things to come and strained to look into those things to understand them; things for our instruction. The Holy Spirit moved them to write of Christ who would come. The grace of God is revealed and we look forward to the glorious hope to come.

    MESSAGE IN 1PETER – NUMBER 1 – A PROBLEM THAT WAS NOT SOLVED BUT IS SOLVED – 1Peter 1:9-12 [1]. INTRODUCTION Have you ever pondered over something that was a bit enigmatic but you were not able to solve it? Perhaps it was not for you to solve, only to know a few small threads of it. Maybe the ...read more

    Message In 1peter – Number 4 – Born Again Through That Which Is Imperishable, But What Is It? – 1peter 1:23 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on May 9, 2023
     | 1,445 views

    Peter teaches on the new birth. Being born again by the imperishable seed. There can be no regeneration of the human soul in any person’s life, which is dead to God, without the operation of the word of God. Therefore a preacher must be aware of the importance of the quickening word in preaching.

    MESSAGE IN 1PETER – NUMBER 4 – BORN AGAIN THROUGH THAT WHICH IS IMPERISHABLE, BUT WHAT IS IT? – 1Peter 1:23 [A]. INTRODUCTION – BIRTH AND DEVELOPMENT Some people are so delighted when they become grandparents for the first time. They are seeing the continuation of their imprint on human life, ...read more

    The God Of Jonah

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Feb 18, 2022
     | 2,668 views

    The story of Jonah is so exciting that some people believe it is no more than a fairy tale filled with exaggerations.

    When it comes to exaggeration, we are reminded of the story of the little boy who was known for his problem with exaggeration. He came home from school one day and said, "Mom, I saw a dog as big as an elephant." The mother said, "Johnny, haven't I told you a billion times not ...read more

    Grasshoppers Or Overcomers?

     | 5,874 views

    This message discusses the consequences of a negative attitude by looking at a huge mistake made by the Israelites. A positive attitude, or faith, is the very thing that will carry us into receiving what God intends for our life.

    I remember one time walking into a Cracker Barrel restaurant and seeing on a shelf in their Country Store a book called Worst-Case Scenarios. When I first saw this book I thought it was sad that someone could make money by selling a book that contained people’s worst nightmares. I wondered who ...read more

    Receiving God’s Grace

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 3, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,144 views

    There are many believers who know about grace in their mind, but they haven’t taken it to heart. God loves us for who we are, and we do not have to perform for Him or try to be perfect. All the Lord expects is that we simply be His.

    Jesus said, “If the Son makes you free, you will be free indeed” (Jn 8:36 NASB); but how many Christians are actually living as though they’re free? Some portray the look of a death row inmate awaiting the day of execution! There are believers living with regret over past mistakes and sins, and ...read more

    Psalm 42 - One Of The Psalms Of The Sons Of Korah - Part 2 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Mar 16, 2022
     | 1,683 views

    Psalm 42 is the case of a son of Korah who went through depression and despair. He recounts his experience - his own state and feelings and what he knows to be the faithfulness of God. We continue in Part 2 to follow his experience as he works through his problems.

    MESSAGE 2 - PSALMS OF THE SONS OF KORAH. PSALM 42 Part 2 Ron Ferguson ronaldf@aapt.net.au Psa 42 v 5 Why are you in despair, O my soul? And why have you become disturbed within me? Hope in God, for I shall again praise Him for the help of His presence. Psa 42:6 O my God, my soul is in despair ...read more

    Be Present Among The Lost Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Oct 30, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,196 views

    Some believers insist on keeping a safe distance from the lost, afraid of being contaminated by their behavior or being seen as guilty by association; and so they fail to share their faith with the ones who actually need their help.

    It is my desire to preach on real issues that we deal with as believers, so here’s a real observation to start off with: Some believers act like once they have received God’s forgiveness and been saved from their sins by the blood of Jesus Christ that they’re somehow better than the lost. However, ...read more

    Serving With Integrity And Passion Series

     | 3,323 views

    God placed it upon Paul's heart that the church in Crete needed to grow up to maturity. Titus had demonstrated that he was ready for the responsibility of organizing the churches in Crete; he would lead the people to avoid the Cretan worldview and the legalism of the Jews.

    “Come, follow me.” The words resound with authority that could emanate only from the heart of God. My heart is tenderly touched each time I view a video clip that depicts the early disciple walking away from their known life to live according to a calling God places upon their lives. As the ...read more

    Thirsty Souls Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Sep 8, 2021
     | 3,808 views

    Thirsty souls, looking for something more in life, are all around us. And we have the water they seek? Here's how we can make a difference for them and for eternity!

    One of the questions I ask, and even ask now, as I near the end of my life, is “So what? So what? In other words, what difference did my life make, for good or for ill? I suspect I’m not alone in asking these questions. I think one of our greatest needs in life is for meaning, for significance, ...read more

    Jesus Or Barabbas? Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Sep 15, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 7,456 views

    Good Friday: Each and every person who cried out for Barabbas to be released was as guilty as he. And we too are just as guilty, for it was on account of our sins that He was slain.

    Good Friday is coming up this week; so, this morning we’re going to focus on an event surrounding Jesus’ trial and crucifixion. We will be examining the account of Jesus and Barabbas, and this is apparently a significant event because it is shared in all four of the gospels. The other locations ...read more

    This passage of scripture is talking about the Christian’s wardrobe.

    Illus: For example, Princess Diana, Jacqueline Kennedy and Nancy Reagan were known for the beautiful clothes they wore. When Barbara Bush came along, she was a wonderful First Lady, but she was different. In fact, she was so different that many times it looked like she bought her complete ...read more

    Ambassadors For Christ

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Oct 29, 2024
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,971 views

    This message views the biblical image of "ambassador for Christ" in the context of the Roman world. While sojourning on earth, we must represent our real homeland, the kingdom of heaven.

    “George Shultz, when Secretary of State during the Reagan administration, kept a large globe in his office. When newly appointed ambassadors had an interview with him . . . Shultz would test them. He would say, ‘You have to go over the globe and prove to me that you can identify your country.’ ...read more

    Jonah - God’s Compassion Is On Full Display

    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Nov 14, 2025
     | 226 views

    We can see God’s Compassion is On Full Display in His willingness to use flawed People, in His willingness to Give People a second Chance, in the patience God showed to help Jonah to see himself and as God seeks to see all men saved.

    Sermon: Jonah - God’s Compassion Is On Full Display Scripture Text: Jonah 1:1-17, “Now the word of the Lord came unto Jonah the son of Amittai, saying, Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and cry against it; for their wickedness is come up before me.

    Acts 17:15-19 teaches us about thankfulness to Jesus.

    Introduction In 2000, my wife and two children visited Cape Town, South Africa. We had the opportunity to visit Robben Island. Robben Island is an island in Table Bay, about 6 miles north of the city of Cape Town. It takes its name from the Dutch word for seals, hence the Dutch/Afrikaans name ...read more
