God’s ways are not our ways. This truth is not more clearly demonstrated than in the parable of the lost sheep and the lost coin

He Taught Them Many Parables… (The Parable Of The Net) # 3

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 15, 2022

This is a fascinating parable the Lord used in teaching something He wanted men to know about the kingdom of heaven.

Many of the things we hear about the kingdom of heaven today are not the truth. For example, many ministers today, if they do not come out and preach it, they imply that if you live a good moral life and attend church frequently, when you die you will go to heaven. But the fact is, the Bible ...read more

Look at Mark 4:1-2, we read, “And he began again to teach by the sea side: and there was gathered unto him a great multitude, so that he ...read more

Daniel's Vision Of The Ram, The Goat, And The Little Horn Series

Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Feb 22, 2022

What we will see in this chapter is a clear picture of ruler's denying the Lord and trampling people underfoot, both believers and unbelievers.

Tonight we enter into chapter 8 in the book of Daniel. At this point in history, Israel had lost everything and were exiled into Babylon. God knew that His people needed some kind of encouragement. So, from this point on, chapters 8 through 12, the Scripture was originally written in Hebrew. ...read more
