    Christ opens our eyes to see Him in the midst of a world of spiritual blindness.

    Grace and peace to you from God our Father and from our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. This morning I’d like to talk to you about a certain creature, a specimen you don’t see on the seminary campus very often. I’m talking about … an unbeliever. A non-Christian. Someone who does not have saving ...read more

    Jesus enjoins us to do the will of the Father, but learning how to do God's will is a lifelong journey.

    Thursday of the 1st Week in Advent Joy of the Gospel When I read this passage from the great prophet of Advent, the Hebrew priest Isaiah, my memory goes back almost ten years to our pilgrimage to the Holy Land. Both the Old and New Testaments contain a recurring theme, one we see most perfectly ...read more

    The second in a series of messages about the family. This sermon concentrates on the man's perspective in relationships, family, and healing.

    I want to talk to the men. We often preach to the men...messages of how to better care for and understand the women. But, seldom, if ever, do we give insight to the man's world to women. * I want you to notice in the text: "A Blind Man" * Never in scripture do you hear of a blind woman * God ...read more

    You must learn the language and literary method that the people in Jesus used if you truly want to understand the Scripture. Hillel's method of asking questions is the optimal way.

    Near Eastern people in Yeshua's (and later on) wrote in allegories, metaphors, and parables. Is this healing story real? In the minds of Near Eastern people, it does not matter. The lesson of the story is the key. The lesson is that everyone must open their eyes to reading the Torah and live ...read more

    The Encounter Of Openness And Truth

    based on 3 ratings
     | 3,403 views

    It is God who sets things in motion, and God who opens hearts to the Gospel.

    THE ENCOUNTER OF OPENNESS AND TRUTH. Acts 16:9-15. It is a bit of a cliché, but ‘when God closes one door, He opens another’. This was certainly the experience of Paul and his companions: Silas (cf. Acts 15:40), Timothy (cf. Acts 16:1-3), and Luke (cf. Acts 16:10). We are not told how, ...read more

    Waiting faith and expectant trust.

    AN OPEN-ENDED PRAYER. Psalm 123:1-4. This is a short, impassioned prayer: a plea for help in the face of adversaries. It begins with adoration, with an abrupt “Unto You…” (PSALM 123:1). This is a song of Ascents and its opening may be paralleled to another: ‘I to the hills will lift ...read more

    When you ask God to give you opportunities do not expect the devil to rejoice when He does.

    Doors: Open Or Closed

    Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Aug 24, 2017
    based on 2 ratings
     | 82,817 views

    The majority of the body of Christ believes that God opens doors (a "yes" answer to prayer) and closes doors (a "no" answer to prayer) in their lives. Does scripture support such a belief?

    The message today is one that I believe is going to challenge traditional thinking in the Body of Christ. How many of you have heard the following statements and, perhaps, even said them? ? When God opens a door no one can close it. ? When God closes a door no one can open it. ? When one door ...read more

    A sermon for Baptism of the Lord Sunday.

    “Heaven Torn Open” Mark 1:4-11 Throughout the Old Testament, from the Fall in Genesis—forward—God is cloaked in mystery. Throughout the wanderings of the Israelites in the wilderness, Moses is God’s mouthpiece through whom God speaks. When the Tabernacle was set up, the Lord led the people by ...read more

    The Bible gives truths to help us discern God's will for us. Yes, we are to live by faith. However, our faith is to be based from Biblical truths that are eternal.

    Title: Open Doors of Opportunity Theme: God Does Not Contradict His Word Series: Three Foundational Truths to Grasping Gods Will Introduction: The greatest frustration to many people is the inability to determine God's will for them.
