    When We Gather Together

    Contributed by John White on May 3, 2017
    based on 1 rating
     | 27,175 views

    The principle and practice of God's people gathering together in the presence of the Lord in a house dedicated to Him for the purpose of corporate praise and worship is clearly taught throughout the Bible by command, precept and example.

    WHY WE GATHER TOGETHER Psalm 84:10 "For a day in thy courts [is] better than a thousand. I had rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness." Psalm 122:1 " I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the LORD." Matt. 18:20 "Again I ...read more

    The illustration is a fictional story about "knowing the day of our death". Jesus knew why He was going to Jerusalem. The disciples believe the "kingdom" of the Son of Man, Daniel 7 is about to be fulfilled. Jesus turns Daniel upside down. Service!

    The Practical Points Of Conversing With God

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 6, 2021
     | 2,581 views

    Nehemiah's prayer was an example in practicality, specificity and common sense when coming before the LORD with our needs and burdens. Prayer is an orderly time of conversing with God, who wants to hear from you daily.

    This message is a continuation of our look at the prayers of the Jewish statesman Nehemiah and his concern over the rebuilding of Jerusalem, which had laid in ruins for decades after its destruction by the Babylonian King Nebuchadnezzar in 586 B.C., which brought the kingdom of Judah to an end ...read more

    Jesus warned His disciples that they would be hated by the world. Why? And how do we respond?

    WHAT DOES THE WORLD THINK OF JESUS? It hates Him. - John 15:18, 21, 22, 23, 24. 1. It’s easy to think of Jesus as a Mr. Rogers’ kind of guy and not think about the fact that they killed Him. He was not eminently likeable. - He called His enemies “vipers” and the “blind leading the blind.” - ...read more

    God's work never goes forward without opposition from the enemy. In fact, opposition is almost always caused by success and not failure. In building the walls of Jerusalem, Nehemiah faced much opposition but he knew what to do and now we can know also.

    Nehemiah 4:7-23 (NLT) “But when Sanballat and Tobiah and the Arabs, Ammonites, and Ashdodites heard that the work was going ahead and that the gaps in the wall of Jerusalem were being repaired, they were furious. 8  They all made plans to come and fight against Jerusalem and throw us into ...read more

    Paul had a unique conversion, yet every coming-to-Christ is a miracle.

    Not unlike other churches within the first century, Thessalonica faced much adversity and opposition. They were relentlessly attacked for their faith in Christ. However, Paul encouraged them to remain steadfast in the faith, standing firmly for the Lord.

    Having Done All, Stand 1 Thessalonians 2: 14-16 It has been a few weeks since we began to study this powerful letter to the Thessalonian church. Our last encounter revealed Paul encouraging the church to be an imitator of Christ rather than a pretender of the faith. He exhorted them to a life ...read more
