    No Condemnation

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 24, 2022
     | 1,743 views

    The Lord Jesus said in John 3:18, "He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God."

    Every lost person is like a person that is on death row who has already been tried and condemned. The sinner does not have to be proven guilty. In the sight of God: • WHO SEES ALL • WHO KNOWS ALL The sinner has already been condemned. You might ask, "If this be true, then why does the ...read more

    The same sign given to Ahaz and Joseph is given to you and me. "The virgin has conceived and has given birth to a Son. And He is Emmanuel. God with us." His name is Jesus.

    Sometimes dreams are prompted by impressions and “residues” of the previous day that we take into our sleep, thus Joseph’s dream consists in his waking, conscious desire to protect Mary, preserve his own honor and resolve the dilemma of Mary’s pregnancy by divorcing her quietly. God uses Joseph’s ...read more

     | 8,745 views

    Sin hinders our relationship with God, creating division and preventing fellowship. We have no way to restore that which sin has lost, but God provided the means of reconciliation through the offering of His Son.

    Reconciliation: Restored Relationship Romans 5: 8-11 As we continue the series, Understanding Christianese, I want us to take a moment and consider the state of affairs in our nation, and even around the world.

     | 6,480 views

    Many will ask us as Christians certain questions about our God and His Son Jesus Christ. It is important that we are prepared. This sermon should assist the congregation in answering some of the most important ones.

    I. Why Did Jesus have to die? Answer: In order that He die as a man, He had to be born and live as one. He came to earth as a man but was God incarnated (Immanuel—God as man). He came to save us, literally from ourselves and this filthy world in which we live. He came to teach us, not only by ...read more

     | 3,657 views

    Jesus has the last laugh! In Jesus' resurrection, the Creator of the Universe gives His answer to the rejection of His Son at Calvary. In Christ, our lives no longer end in our funeral but rather in the Wedding of the Lamb.

    Jokes can be pretty mean, and maybe April 1st, being April Fools Day in some parts, can be a pretty worrying time – you might be always looking over your shoulder, not sure if you’re going to get pranked before mid-day strikes. However, this April 1st, this April Fools Day, also happens to be ...read more

    The Parable Of The Mom And Two Children

    based on 1 rating
     | 9,395 views

    The Parable of the Two Sons retold in a modern way for children. This is set up as a play, but can easily be told as a story or sermon illustration. The modern context helps create a gateway for children to see themselves in the story.

    The Parable of the Mom and Two Children Narrator: There once was a Mom who had two children (The mom walks out and waves to people). Narrator: Her oldest daughter, Emily, loves sports (The reader pauses and lets Emily walk out. They wait five seconds. She walks out and waves to the ...read more

    How did Peter go from being the guy who declared "Thou art the Christ, the Son of the Living God" to being the guy who said "Nope! I don't know the man?"

    OPEN: There's a famous poem named “Footprints” that you can find on posters, paintings and even small cards that people will put in the Bibles. It has a powerful message of hope and comfort, and it goes like this: “One night I dreamed a dream. As I was walking along the beach with my Lord, across ...read more

    God does not want anyone to perish. So He showers His blessings, His graces on all the field, and the merits of His Son enable us to become pure wheat, either in this life or after it .

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Aug 29, 2025
     | 136 views

    This is the chapter where Peter proclaims that Jesus Christ is the Promised Messiah and Son of God. This confession of faith is the catalyst that gave birth to the church, with Jesus being the Chief Cornerstone (1Peter 2:6-8).

    Jesus and His disciples entered the region of Caesarea Philippi, located 25 miles north of the Sea of Galilee. This was the territory where Philip, the brother of Herod Antipas, ruled as Tetrarch. It was here that the Lord asked the disciples, “Who do men say that I the Son of Man, am?” He was ...read more
