    A Reality Check On Grace

    Contributed by Michael Blitz on Feb 15, 2025
     | 374 views

    This morning we look at Jesus Parable of the workers in the vineyard, a parable discussing the basics of Grace and the Gospel.

    A Reality Check on Grace Good Morning. We are looking at the parable in our Gospel Lesson today, with a focus on GRACE, especially from the angle of already being a Christian, and looking back at how we were saved. The context of the parable, the end of Matthew 19, is Peter asking about how great ...read more

    He Taught Them Many Parables (The Body’s Lamp) # 22

    In this parable, the Lord used the image of eyesight to convey an important spiritual principle.

    We all would agree that eyesight is something that is very important to all of us.

    He Taught Them Many Parables… (The Thief And The Servants) # 19

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 14, 2022
     | 2,058 views

    As we look at the coming of the Lord as a thief in the night, the emphasis is on the element of surprise.

    For example, a thief does not call the home that he plans to enter and say, “About one O’clock this evening I plan to arrive.” When he enters a home, he wants the element of surprise to be on his side.And the Bible tells us in Matthew 24:36, “But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the ...read more

    He Taught Them Many Parables… (The Fig Tree) # 16

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 14, 2022
     | 1,276 views

    The Lord taught many parables. But to fully understand these parables as we study them, we need to examine what motivated Him to teach that particular parable.

    In order to do this, you generally have to read the verses that precede the parable He spoke. For example, following Jesus' comments about the widow giving her two small coins in the temple, He teaches about: • The destruction of the temple • The coming of the end of the age Look at Luke 21: ...read more

     | 1,623 views

    We have heard it said many times, in many places, by many people, “DO UNTO OTHERS AS YOU WOULD HAVE THEM DO UNTO YOU.”

    This would be a great place to live if everyone lived by this Bible principle. The fact is, many among us would be irate, to say the least, if others treated us the way we treat others.

    Who Judges And When?

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Sep 2, 2024
     | 340 views

    Only Jesus can shed light on the nuances of every human judgement, and He will do that either when He returns in glory to judge everyone, or when each of us dies and renders a report on our gifts and thoughts and actions.

    Friday of the Twenty-Second Week in Course 2024 Living in the kind of highly polarized society we have today, one must be uncommonly careful about what you say to others, or even what your face does when you are interacting with another person.

    based on 4 ratings
     | 1,008 views

    The main idea is to understand the story of Jesus as told in the Bible, particularly in the Gospel of Mark, and to rethink our understanding of this story and our place in it.

    Hey guys, let's dive into a cool story today. You know how we all love a good story, right? Well, the Bible is like the ultimate storybook. But sometimes, we get the story all mixed up. We're going to look at the first chapter of Mark's Gospel to help us get the story straight. Let's pray: "God, we ...read more

    Has anybody received a compliment today? Everybody likes a compliment. But what is the greatest compliment that anybody could ever give you? For a Christian, it would be when another person tells you that they see Jesus in you.

    God can see us all the time, whether we acknowledge him or not.

    How many of you have played peek-a-boo with a baby? Fun, isn’t it? But eventually they figure out that you can see them even when they can’t see you, and the thrill goes away. It’s a control thing, I think... they’re learning that what they do has an effect on their environment, and sometimes it ...read more

    The parable of the sower, or more appropriately the Seed, is a parable about truth and what happens when truth is rejected. Ultimately, it's a parable of encouragement.

    We’re going to be in Mark 4 this morning. Most historians agree that the book of Mark, in a sense, is Simon Peter’s autobiography. Mark wrote his epistles based on his conversations with Peter. So, when you read Mark look at how choppy it is. It’s not like the book of Luke which sacrifices few ...read more
