Understanding The Rapture Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Aug 8, 2023

Study #3: This study looks at the two most prominent views on the Rapture. Ultimately, however, no one knows the exact day or the specifics of when it will occur. What matters is that we are prepared for that Day by knowing Jesus Christ.

NOTE: This Bible study on the end times comes from the perspective of a pre-tribulation Rapture. In our last study we looked at the Seven Churches of Asia to arrive at the conclusion that we are now entering the last days. There is a succession of events that must take place during the last ...read more

God Knows When You’re Done

Contributed by Gregory Thomas on Jan 31, 2011

Instead of Epraim depending on God for stability He formed alliances with the people instead of him being a shepherd he became as sheep. The "cake not turned" was burnt on one side and raw on the other. A metaphor for just how mixed up their lives were.

God Knows When You’re Done Hosea 7:8 The idea is of a “half-baked” cake. In that day, bread was often prepared as a cake that was cooked on both sides, something like a pancake. In thinking they can serve both the Lord and idols, Israel is like an unturned pancake - burned on one side, uncooked ...read more

Already, But Not Yet

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Feb 23, 2022

What are the kingdom of heaven and the kingdom of God? Where are they located? Does knowing hold any significance for the believer? The kingdom was part of Jesus' message, and it should be a part of our message too.

I have entitled our message this morning “Already, But Not Yet.” This sermon title may sound a bit strange; however, it will soon make sense. I am going to have us focus on the topic of the kingdom, and see if we can identify its location. Many of us will probably say, “Well, that’s easy! The ...read more

Contributed by Winson Butler on May 24, 2005

The length of a conversation don’t tell nothin’ about the size of the intellect. Just because someone says so doesn’t make it so. That’s why when it comes to Angels let examine the facts together!

Introduction Not everyone believes in Angels. In Jesus’ day the Sadducees denied their existence, that’s why they were sad-u-see (Acts 23:8). Not only do I believe in them but like you have had personal encounters with them. Of course, I may not see them visibly, however, they are there hard at ...read more

Four Things A Loving God Wants Us To Know About Death And Dying

Contributed by Larry Moyer on Aug 5, 2009

Death is a gate. All of us have to pass through it. It may be expected or unexpected. But if you trust Christ, that gate will be wide enough for two - you and your Savior. And the One who has led you all through life will not desert you then.
