    Isaiah foresaw global environmental destruction. That's what we have today.

    People often talk about ratios. We have student-teacher ratio, price-earnings ratio, debt-GDP ratio, power-weight ratio and so on. I’d like to propose a ‘significance-study ratio’ to highlight significant passages of Scripture which we overlook. Today’s passage is one of them. World leaders and ...read more

    First Sunday Of Lent- B -- "he Was Among Wild Beasts, And The Angels Ministered To Him.”

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Feb 19, 2021
     | 2,147 views

    It turns out that the devil is knocking at her door and she says, “I never dreamed he’d have blue eyes and blue jeans.”

    “He was among wild beasts, and the angels ministered to him.” In the Greek, these were dangerous animals. These wild animals can remind us that dangers surrounded Jesus all through his life. And ours. e.g. At a United States Army post in the desert of Kuwait, Protestant Chaplain (Major) Barbara ...read more

    Jonathan Turnbough of Garner, North Carolina, talks about the time when his mother was driving him and his sisters to school and she was pulled over by a policeman and ticketed for speeding.

    Open Your Eyes

    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

    Sing In The Power Of The Holy Spirit For A World In Desperate Need Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on May 8, 2021
     | 1,713 views

    The Holy Spirit should be our constant counselor and guide. We are under tremendous pressure in the Christian churches and schools these days.

    Acts 16: 11-21 and John 15: 21-27 When we listen to the Gospel of Luke and the Acts, and to the Gospel of John as well, we get the impression that the Holy Spirit was more active in the early Church than today. Paul was forbidden by the Spirit–probably warned by a prophetic utterance–not to ...read more

    The Look Of Love--From Jesus Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jan 21, 2022
     | 1,391 views

    What did He see in Jesus’s eyes? What attracted him? I think He saw love, because Jesus, whose whole life was an image of the Trinitarian love, pierced his soul with love.

    Monday of 4th week in Course This Gospel brings to mind a letter of Pope Benedict, “Deus est caritas,” or “God is love.” If we look at the story of Jesus and this Gadarene madman, we are struck by the question, “why did Jesus bother with this guy?” He lived in a graveyard, he stank of dead flesh ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 1,995 views

    Don’t let the mystery and the power of the cross ever be substituted for anything less. Not the law, not wisdom - just the power of the cross.

    Title: How to not love God Text: 1 Cor 1:17 – 31 MP: As unreasonable as it is, the cross is still more powerful than any sign or logic It’s always dangerous to use a Monty Python sketch to bring out the truth of a Scripture, but in this case, you’ll see, the shoe fits. But, seeing as this ...read more

    Mother's Day: Proverbs 31 contains, not just advice on the kind of woman that a man should look for, but it’s also an account of the behavior that a godly mother should aspire to in her life.

    I surf the radio channels when I’m on a long drive, and over the past few years I’ve noticed there are a lot of “mama songs.” But, I can’t really recall hearing any “daddy songs” on the radio. You see, Mamas are special. Think about it. When you look back at your life and consider who was ...read more

     | 2,272 views

    If you want to get rid of the shame of your past, reject the condemnation of your accusers and receive the commendation of Christ. Trust Jesus with your life and let Him take away your shame, let Him take the blame, so you are never the same again.

    Max Lucado, in his book Facing Your Giants, talks about Rogers Cadenhead, who upon the death of Pope John Paul II, registered www.BenedictXVI.com as a new internet domain name before the new Pope's name was even announced.

     | 12,261 views

    God uses people as building materials. We see why this is surprising. We also see how God does it.

    Ephesians 2:13-22 “BECOMING A BRICK IN THE HOUSE OF GOD” There are people who build houses out of garbage. Did you know that? It is the oddest thing, really. If you go to the internet and type “houses constructed out of garbage,” you will find numerous examples of people who build houses out ...read more

    Are You A Revolutionary? Part 3

    Contributed by Greg Carr on Aug 30, 2006
    based on 3 ratings
     | 2,071 views

    Today we are going to look at the final definition: Definition 4 – A complete or radical change of any kind. God wants to do a sudden, radical, and complete change in each of us.

    (This message was inspired by George Barna and his book, Revolution. I also found Sermon Central contributor, J. Martin’s messages on this topic helpful.) Are you a Revolutionary? Are you in a close orbit with God? Are you doing whatever it takes to get closer to God and to help others do the ...read more
