The Prophets Preach The Birth Of Christ

Contributed by Scott Burr on Dec 14, 2012

Throughout the Old Testament, God showed bits and pieces of Christ's coming birth to the Prophets to give them hope during Israel's times of trial. How much more hope should we have in our times of trial having the full message of His birth at our disposa

End Times Midrash: Rapture And Tribulation Series

Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Jun 26, 2012

God obviously wants us to know what will happen in the End Times because his Word contains so much about those times. The New Testament teachings about the end times are often developed from Old Testament passages, like Daniel 12:1-3.

End Times Midrash: Rapture and Tribulation (Daniel 12:1 and many New Testament verses based on this verses) 1. A lot of people fear the world is going to end in 2012, based upon the Mayan calendar.

What's Love Got To Do With It? Series

Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Sep 27, 2016

Tina Turner asked this question but she downplayed the significance of love; calling it a ‘second-hand emotion’ and a ‘sweet old-fashioned notion'. But for those who understand the true essence of love it means much more. What’s love got to do with it?

Great In The Sight Of The Lord

Contributed by John Gaston on Dec 4, 2014

Love The Right Things

Contributed by Thomas Mccracken on Feb 7, 2012

We have become so desensitized by the word love. We throw the word "love" out so often, like an old man with gum for the neighborhood kids. We invest our emotions in things like: money, toxic relationships, popularity, health, selfhish motives and even th

Loving the Right Things I Cor. 13:1-13 Introduction: There is no safe investment. To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything, and your heart will certainly be wrung and possibly be broken.

The Birthright (2008)

Contributed by John Williams Iii on Oct 24, 2022

When we make problems for ourselves where God had intended for us to make progress, we cannot usually reset our course. The Old Testament story about the Esau’s birthright that he surrendered to his brother Jacob is perhaps one of the best examples of this.

THE BIRTHRIGHT Text: Hebrews 12:16 President John Fitzgerald Kennedy once said, “Our problems are man made; therefore they may be solved by men. And man can be as big as he wants. No problem of human destiny is beyond human beings.” There is a lot ...read more

The "Day Of The Lord” Study In The Scriptures – Additional References Part 7 - Isaiah Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Sep 26, 2022

References to "The Day of the LORD" continue as we look into the Old Testament prophets (Isaiah here). We will see great fear, judgment, scorched men, Israel saved - a remnant, and God's compassion on Israel. God will refine His people. God is compassion.

THE “DAY OF THE LORD” STUDY IN THE SCRIPTURES – ADDITIONAL REFERENCES PART 7 - ISAIAH The DAY OF THE LORD is “The Day of Jehovah” and its usage is always associated with something dire, with judgement, and with events outside the implementation of man.

Cs Lewis Style Observations About Reality

Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Dec 28, 2021

If I may make a CS Lewis'esc observation about humanity: No one is really old. Every person ever born was always intended to be forever young, and has a soul which feels a natural inclination to always exist, thus aging and death is a profound surprise to us.

Contributed by Dennis Lee on Jun 30, 2024

Using both Joseph in the Old Testament, and Martin Luther King Jr. from our generation, we'll look at these principles of freedom from God’s word along with seeing how their dreams defined the destiny of their people. Jesus wants everyone to live a lifestyle of freedom.

Rising Above The Turkeys Series

Contributed by Vic Folkert on Mar 23, 2018

When people try to make changes, other people may hold them back. As Jacob tries to overcome his scheming nature, Laban drags him down. God intervenes, so that Jacob can rise above that old turkey, Laban, and his own nature as well.

RISING ABOVE THE TURKEYS—Genesis 30:25-31:55 “I could soar like an eagle, if I didn’t have to deal with so many turkeys.” My uncle raised turkeys. Turkeys are pretty stupid. They are always crowding each other, pecking at each other, fighting over food, so they can get big enough to be ...read more
