    The Tree Of Knowledge And The Tree Of Life

    Contributed by Tarran Dookie on Jan 6, 2025
     | 828 views

    God did not forbid Adam and Eve to eat the fruit from the tree of life in the garden. However, once they ate of the forbidden tree of knowledge of good and evil they were driven out of the garden and cherubims and a flaming sword were placed to keep the way of the tree of life. Why was this done?

    THE TREE OF KNOWLEDGE AND THE TREE OF LIFE (by brother Tarran Dookie) THE COMMAND AND THE CONSEQUENCES Gen 2:8-9 And the LORD God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there he put the man whom he had formed. And out of the ground made the LORD God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the ...read more

    God's Comfort Through Knowledge Series

    Contributed by Phillip Smith on Feb 4, 2023
     | 1,194 views

    Knowledge of God and his kingdom offers comfort to the righteous in all times of pain, sorrow, and suppression by evil beings. Daniel, in captivity, was comforted regularly by knowledge given to 'a man highly esteemed'; Daniel 9:23. Through knowledge, the righteous are comforted today.

    In our study of punishment, captivity, protection of saints, and comfort of the righteous in times of captivity, we will see God’s continued comfort in knowledge of His divine plan for mankind unto Daniel. It is safe to assume Daniel shared these bits of knowledge and wisdom with the righteous ...read more

    Into The Spin Cycle Series

    Contributed by Roshelle Brenneise on Oct 23, 2025
     | 250 views

    As long as the judge lived, the people worshipped God (sort-of), however, after the judge died, it didn’t take long for the people to fall back into idol worship and rebellion – “They refused to give up their evil practices and stubborn ways.” – and back into the spin they would go.

    October 25, 2025 According to 1 Kings 6:1 – in the 480th year after leaving Egypt and in the 4th year of his reign, Solomon began to build the Temple in Jerusalem. The date universally agreed upon: 967 BC. Many things occurred in those 480 years, including the desert wandering, the conquest, ...read more

    Are We More Wicked Now Than In Times Of The Past? Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Sep 10, 2022
     | 2,353 views

    How wicked is our current world when compared with the past? We will look at the advance of evil in this world to try to answer that question. To help us, we will look at some quotes from an ancient document called "The Epistle of Barnabas". We are in wicked times.

    ARE WE MORE WICKED NOW THAN IN TIMES OF THE PAST? In this address we are going to consider our current world and contemplate the question, “Are we more wicked than in the past?” We will look at a portion from the ancient “Epistle of Barnabas”.

    The Fifth And Sixth Trumpets Series

    Contributed by T.j. Conwell on Aug 28, 2023
     | 1,188 views

    A day is coming where mankind will answer for all of the evils we have done. Yes, Satan will be judged and receive what is his … but so will mankind! Our deception today is thinking that God will not hold us accountable. This is what the 5th and 6th trumpets reveal for us.

    based on 1 rating
     | 4,184 views

    The Disney movie "The Emperor's New Groove" sounds like its straight out of the Bible; a story where a king, along with his evil female advisor, desire a new plot of ground. This sermon addresses the slippery slope of envy and coveting.

    In Disney’s thirty-ninth animated film, “The Emperor’s New Groove,” self-proclaimed “King of the World” Kuzco (COOS-coh), who had an evil female advisor named Yzma (EEZ-muh), made plans to demolish an entire village to build a new water park. At the highest point of the village he planned on ...read more

    Our Faith In God

    Contributed by Kyle Campbell on Feb 9, 2022
     | 1,262 views

    In a time when forces of evil are seeking to ruin our minds, remember that our responsibility is always to uphold sacred truth. To successfully bring every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ (2 Corinthians 10:5), we need to have a tremendous faith in every aspect of God.

    Introduction. There is a philosophy that has been expounded and continues to be expounded today that denies the existence of God and insists that “man in the measure of all things.” We call this philosophy “humanism,” but it is no more than what we used to call “atheism.” This philosophy has almost ...read more

     | 730 views

    Why do bad things happen to good people? Why do good things happen to bad people? Why does it rain on good and evil, the just and the unjust? Asaph decided to seek God. In seeking God, we will find stability amid life’s confusion.

    Sermon: Finding Stability Amid Life’s Confusion Scripture: Psalms 73:1-28, “Truly God is good to Israel, to those who are pure in heart. But as for me, my feet had almost stumbled, my steps had nearly slipped. For I was envious of the arrogant when I saw the prosperity of the wicked. For they have ...read more

     | 874 views

    Every phase of Joseph’s life was divinely orchestrated. From the pit to slavery, from prison to the palace—none of it was wasted. What others meant for evil, God used for good. Joseph’s journey is proof that your darkest hour can be the gateway to your greatest testimony.

    JOSEPH: FROM PIT TO PALACE By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Genesis 41:39-44 Supporting Texts: Genesis 37:23-28; Genesis 39:2-4; Genesis 40:23; Psalm 105:17-22; Romans 8:28 INTRODUCTION: The journey of Joseph is one of the most profound illustrations of divine orchestration in Scripture.

     | 1,443 views

    The Bible teaches us to make the most of our time because the days are evil. We should use our time wisely to do God's will. Jesus is our ultimate source of peace and we can learn from his example on how to manage our time.

    Today we're going to talk about something we all wish we had more of - time. We're always running out of it, aren't we? Between school, homework, sports, friends, and family, it feels like there's never enough time in the day. But did you know the Bible has a lot to say about time and how we use ...read more

     | 4,511 views

    There are only 66 words in the Lord’s Prayer, but it can teach us how to pray a perfect prayer. 1. Focus on your Father. 2. Focus on your family. 3. Focus on your faith. 4. Focus on your forgiveness. 5. Focus on your future.

    Hurricanes, Prayer And Faith

    Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Sep 16, 2017
     | 9,548 views

    Many of us prayed against Hurricanes Harvey, Irma and Jose. But they still happened. Why? Is it because none of us p had faith or too little faith? I believe the answer, from scripture, will be a surprise and an encouragement.

    Hurricane’s Harvey, Irma and Jose. Many people, especially Christians, believe they are God’s judgment on the US because of sin. Predictably, the sins most Christians identify are same sex marriage, the homosexual lifestyle and abortion. None of these behaviors are the reasons why our country is ...read more

    Christmas: Jesus Came To Declare War Series

    The reason why I believe in Satan is because Jesus believed in Satan. Jesus said, “I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven” (Luke 10:18).

    I’m really glad God came up with the idea of Christmas. What did God have in mind when He created Christmas? Turn 1 John 3 (page 1303 in pew Bibles) What motivated God to bring Christmas to us? When we think about Christmas, we normally turn to passages inside our Bibles that tell us the story of ...read more

    Jesus had powers that no other human possessed. Was Jesus going to use His power for personal ends? Or, would He use His power for the good of others?

    God tells us to seek out the "ancient paths" and walk in it. Why should we want to to do that... and what would it look like if we managed to do it?

    A few years ago one of my son’s favorite TV shows was “Man vs. Wild”. It featured a guy named Bear Grylls and it was a sort of reality show where this man would be dropped off in an isolated area carrying a knife, a water bottle, some flint (to start a campfire), a waterproof bag, a multi-purpose ...read more
