    Contributed by Scott Jensen on Feb 13, 2011
     | 5,511 views

    A sermon based on both the Law and the Gospel. Jesus explained what sin was. We need to head His command and turn away from temptation.

    Decorations and symbols are everywhere this Christmas season. But reviewing what are the meaning behind them can make this season more memorable.

    Christmas symbols and characters are attractive on everyone’s eyes. But unless we discover their meaning and understand the stories behind them, they will remain as mere decorations. Let us therefore reflect with four usual symbols and characters of Christmas and see if we can get valuable lessons ...read more

    A summary of what Christmas really means.

    1. The One who is unapproachable has approached us. We are natural, while God is supernatural; we are fleshly, while God is spiritual; we are ordinary, while God is extraordinary; we are sinful, while God is holy. We could not approach God, so He approached us. The One who is supernatural, became ...read more

    Sabbath Means Rest

    Contributed by Jerry Smith on May 17, 2014
     | 4,778 views

    Thus, if someone truly wants to observe the Sabbath Day in modern times (New Testament era), that’s a tall order! One that I do not think anyone could keep, because as religious as the Jews were, they could not keep it (Acts 15:10).

    SABBATH MEANS REST Mark 2:27 And he said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath: Q: What happens when we operate a cellphone, tablet, ipod, etc. all day? Q: What happens when we ride a horse all day? Q: What happens when we operate an air-conditioner all day? Q: ...read more

    The Two Meanings Of "End"

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Nov 3, 2013
     | 2,304 views

    There are two meanings to "end," and as we reach the conclusion of a liturgical year, we must plan for both.

    One of the legends circulating that purports to prove the superiority of the new liturgical calendar and new lectionary is that in the Extraordinary Form, we hear Scripture readings that really belong to the beginning of the year, not the end. Let’s be honest. We aren’t talking about ...read more

    Part 2 of 10 in a series dedicated to debunking commonly held myths that we think are in the Bible but really aren't, myths that can and often do have devastating effects on our faith.

    INTRODUCTION: Forgiveness; just the mere mention of the word elicits a variety of feelings and reactions in us, some positive, some very much negative. Wrapped up in this word are feelings of joy and relief, and of consternation and even anger. Forgiveness is a word that indeed “moves” ...read more
