Lessons From Jeremiah – Part 9 – Judah The Harlot Blinded By Sin Polluted The Land Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Feb 29, 2024

I think the worse a man or woman is joined to sin, then the greater the blurriness of that person’s position becomes. Sin is the cancer that overtakes the ability to repent. Judah was so idolatrous; it craved after spiritual adultery with all the gods of the nations. Interesting Hosea.

Godless Delusion Ii Series

Contributed by Christian Cheong on Aug 20, 2017

Jeroboam listened to his own voice and the voices of men, ignoring the voice of God, and led Israel into grievous sin.

We saw last week King Rehoboam (Solomon’s son) listening to the advice of his peers, motivated by his own desires, caused the split of the Kingdom. • This turn of events fulfilled the Word of God given to Solomon and Jeroboam. • We see the sovereignty of God and the certainty of His Word.

Contributed by Perry Greene on Dec 26, 2012

Names are of importance in the Bible -- the name of God; the names of people; and the new name given to believers in Jesus.

Seventh Commandment (8 Of 12)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 14, 2022

I would like to remind you again of the importance of considering why God gave these ten commandments to Israel.

Why? God gave them to Israel before they entered the promised land as they were forming a new nation. He knew that the people needed laws to govern the people by. Every person could not just do as he pleased, when he pleased, to whomever he pleased. Today we would like to deal with the seventh ...read more

Daniel's Prayer Of Confession, Part 2

Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Jul 6, 2020

All of us have to say sorry to God. Daniel's prayer has much to teach about saying sorry. In particular, Daniel accepts that he shares responsibilty for the sin of his people.

Last week I did a first talk on Daniel’s prayer of confession. I’m going to assume that you can roughly remember what I talked about last week. That might be a mistake, but even if you can’t, I don’t think it should be too much of a problem for following my talk today. At the end of last week’s ...read more
