    Believing That Jesus Christ Is The Son Of God - Test #2 Series

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Jun 28, 2012
     | 5,432 views

    Is Jesus the Christ, the true Messiah, the promised Messiah of the Old Testament? Is Jesus Christ really the Savior of men, the one sent by God to save us and to give us life? If a person believes these witnesses, then he believes in God.

    Here’s one for you to think about. There was a preacher who worked hard on his sermon all week and then typed it up on Saturday night. During the night, his dog got into his office and, wouldn’t you know it, chewed his sermon up. He didn’t notice it until it was time to go to ...read more

    "Don't Be Ignorant" 1 Cor. Pt. 10 Series

    based on 4 ratings

    We are not to be ignorant to the truth about holy and unholy lifestyles. God will judge sin as He did in the Old Testament and He will hold us responsible for the way we act as Christians. Christians are to glorify God in everything that they do!

    “Don’t be Ignorant” 1 Cor. pt. 10 Opening Illustration: From Wingclips.com “Get Smart” Swordfish scene where he talks of being alert but ignorantly keeps running into things with the car he is driving.

    So Great A Salvation Series

    Contributed by Lonnie Erwin on Jan 28, 2015
     | 3,762 views

    Hebrews 2:1 states that we "must give more attention"; attention to "The message" of the Good News of Jesus Christ. This salvation is prophetic in the sense that the Old Testament prophets foretold of its coming in of the incarnate Jesus

    Title: "So Great A Salvation" Big Idea: (I) Salvation Promised, (II) Salvation Realized, (III) Salvation Received Text: 1 Peter 1:10-12 Of this salvation the prophets have inquired and searched carefully, who prophesied of the grace that would come to you, 11 searching what, or what manner of ...read more

    What Do We Do When Tragedy Strikes?”

    Contributed by Michael Otterstatter on Aug 2, 2017
    based on 4 ratings
     | 14,010 views

    This section of God's Word shows us how two people responded to a tragedy. One example comes from a widow whose son died. The other comes from one of the greatest prophets in the Old Testament, Elijah.

    At some point it will likely happen to most of us. For each of us it will be different and yet the same. It will leave us with tears in our eyes and pain in our hearts. We call them tragedies—something that seems to turn our lives upside down. Because we live in a world stained by sin these ...read more

    Did He Promise An R71000? Series

    Contributed by Ron Freeman, Evangelist on Oct 24, 2020
    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,342 views

    To prove Christ never promised: the rapture, 7-years of tribulation, and 1000-year reign, at His Second Advent. This doctrine is all religious nonsense, conceived by misinterpretation of keys, symbols, and prophecies: in the Old Testament and the Book of Revelation.

    INTRODUCTION Outline. 1. Did He Promise an R71000? Introductory Remarks. 1. In this lesson today, we will be discussing the theme: “Did He Promise an R71000?" This is the eighth lesson in the sermon-series entitled: "Re-digging in Old Wells." There will be many others bearing this ...read more

    I Have Hidden Your Word In My Heart

    A short talk to encourage the congregation to see Old Testament scripture as Jesus saw it, and specifically to receive the law referred to in Psalm 119 as instruction - like we receive instruction when learning to swim or play guitar.

    Last week I had the wonderful privilege of spending four nights with the Benedictine monks of St. Augustine’s Abbey Chilworth in the Surrey hills. This was my second visit after spending 5 days with them in July 2012 at the start of my extended study leave. Their ministry is prayer and ...read more

    The Righteous Brach Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Apr 24, 2022
     | 3,146 views

    The Old Testament prophets used the imagery of a stump as a prophetic promise. Jesus Christ is Lord our Righteousness and he came to save sinners. Jesus takes our punishment and becomes the LORD Our Righteousness, (‘Jehovah-tsidkenu).

    What do you think of when you see a tree stump? Well, for one thing you probably think that tree has seen better days. The glory days for that tree that is now just a stump lie in the past not the future. You would probably not look at that stump and think that great and wonderful days of fruitful ...read more

    Fulfilling The Prophets

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Aug 5, 2021
     | 3,466 views

    Jesus' Deity is confirmed by His fulfillment of many of the Old Testament prophecies about the coming Messiah. However, He did not fulfill them all and that was on purpose. The fulfillment of some of the prophecies is yet to come, and, they WILL be fulfilled.

    Fulfilling the Prophets Please stand with me as we go over our current memory Scripture: Matthew 5:9-12 “Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil ...read more

    Creation Simplified

    God’s Word tells us in Genesis about creation. We will see that the things taught in Genesis 1 are upheld throughout the rest of Scripture. Both the Old and New Testament writings affirm the Genesis account of creation.

    Genesis Chapter 1 What does Genesis mean? Genesis means beginning or origin. Consider what information we would be missing if we didn’t have the book of Genesis: The history of the beginning would be missing. –how the earth was formed –how life began –how sin entered the world –how God made a ...read more

    Keeping The Fire Burning

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Mar 27, 2025
     | 1,177 views

    The fire of God in our lives must not be allowed to die out. Just as the priests in the Old Testament were instructed to keep the altar fire burning continually, we must ensure that our passion for God remains alive.

    KEEPING THE FIRE BURNING By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Leviticus 6:13 Supporting Texts: Romans 12:11, Matthew 25:1-13, 2 Timothy 1:6, Acts 2:1-4, 1 Thessalonians 5:19 INTRODUCTION Fire is a symbol of God's presence, power, and passion in the life of a believer.

     | 1,048 views

    The doctrine of freedom from law is a central and crucial teaching in the Bible. It refers to the idea that as Christians, we are no longer bound by the Old Testament laws and regulations to be right with God. Instead, we are justified through faith in Jesus Christ.

    Introduction: As Christians, we often talk about our freedom in Christ. But what does that mean? In today's passage, we will explore Paul's words in Galatians 4:21-31 to understand true freedom in Christ.

    Redeeming Grace Series

    Contributed by Mark Schaeufele on Dec 2, 2025
     | 61 views

    The book of Ruth is a quiet story tucked into the Old Testament—a story without thunder, earthquakes, or kings. Yet in this small, domestic narrative we find one of the most powerful pictures of God’s grace and redemption.

    REDEEMING GRACE TEXT: Ruth 4:1-12 Introduction 1. "Certainly, we should be very active in seeking God, and Jesus himself called us to 'ask, seek, knock' in order to find him. Yet those who enter a relationship with God inevitably look back and recognize that God's grace had sought ...read more

    INTRO.- ILL.- There was a New England Patriots’ fan with a really crummy seat. Looking with his binoculars, he spotted an empty seat on the 50-yard line.
