    God's plan of the ages is to restore man back into the Kingdom of God

    The Kingdom of God Wed. - Oct. 27, 2004 Here's a statement that's going to rub some the wrong way: Man was not created to spend eternity in heaven: Man was created to spend eternity here on earth in the Garden of Eden. That was God's plan when He created the Garden. Eden was a kingdom ...read more

    Today we hear the alarming news about the cloning of human beings.

    There are already some serious questions that keep coming up about cloning, such as: • Could you clone Larry King, or would it have to be living tissue? • If we clone our generation will there be enough of them working to support Social Security when I retire? • If Larry King clones himself and ...read more

  • My God Shall Supply

    The lost world makes it known that they do not want to serve God in various ways.

    They do not want anyone, not even God, telling them how they should live their lives! Something the lost world does not seem to know is this; EVERYONE SERVES A GOD OF SOME SORT! The lost world has many gods that have control of their lives. Remember when Paul came to Mars Hill, in the Book of ...read more

  • Preaching From Philippians #8

    Paul’s life was like ours in that he had two kinds of friends.

    (1) HE HAD HIS SUNSHINE FRIENDS One of the sunshine friends was Demas. When things were going great, Demas was there, but when things got rough, Demas got going! Look at 2 Timothy 4:3, we read, “For Demas hath forsaken me, having loved this present world, and is departed unto Thessalonica; ...read more

  • Preaching From Philippians #7

    As we look at the life of the apostle Paul in this passage of scripture, we see that he is in jail.

    Illus: A man that was in prison was asked, “What is the worst thing about prison?” He said, “The worst thing about prison is that you are here and everybody that you love and care for are out there!” Paul knew exactly what this man was talking about. He was in prison and those that he loved and ...read more

  • Preaching From Philippians #6

    In this passage of scripture, Paul talks to the Philippian Christians about salvation. That may seem strange because these people said they were Believers.

    A good pastor deals with the subject of salvation for two reasons: (1) He knows it is a possibility that many are deceived about their salvation. The Lord Himself dealt with this deception in Matthew 7:22-23, we read, “Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy ...read more

  • Preaching From Philippians #5

     | 2,147 views

    This little passage of scripture is loaded with wonderful teachings about the Lord Jesus Christ.

    Some believe it is one of the greatest passages in the Bible concerning the Lord Jesus Christ. It gives us a picture of the humility of Christ like we have never seen before. If the church today is ever going to accomplish anything for the Lord, we are going to have to know and possess the ...read more

  • Preaching From Philippians #4

     | 1,302 views

    In Chapter one, Paul let these Christians in Philippi know that he wanted to come to them, but couldn’t because he was in jail.

    He also wanted them to know that his being in jail might bring about his death, but if it did, they were not to let it shake their faith in the Lord Jesus. He did not want them to feel sorry for him or for themselves, because Paul let it be known that for him “TO LIVE IS CHRIST AND TO DIE IS ...read more

  • Preaching From Philippians #3

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 31, 2022
     | 1,956 views

    In the last sermon, we dealt with Paul stating that whether he lived or died, his purpose for living was for the Lord Jesus.

    When he wrote to the Philippian church, he was in prison. In prison he knew that he faced a capital crime and that he might be executed. If you were in prison and you thought that you might die, what kind of letter would you write? We do not have to guess at what kind of letter the Apostle Paul ...read more

    One of the reasons that it is a sin for Christians to take drugs or drink alcoholic beverages is because these are substances that control our behavior.

    These are things that will ruin our lives and cause us to make fools out of ourselves. There is no way that a Christian can be controlled by the Holy Spirit if they are controlled by these substances. But these are not the only things that control Christians. For example, there are many ...read more

  • Preaching From Philippians (1 Of 8)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 31, 2022
     | 1,827 views

    In Paul’s writings, his greetings varied from church to church. He made the greetings fit the church he was addressing and the things he wanted to talk about.

    For example, when he wrote to the Corinthians he stated that he was an Apostle in his greetings. Look at 1 Cor. 1:1 “Paul, called to be an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Sosthenes our brother.” He did not mention that he was an Apostle in his address to the Philippians! He ...read more

They deal with... • Relationships. • The economy. • Health. • Schools. • Neighborhood crime. • Job security, etc. There are so many things we can worry about today if we choose to do so. Illus: This reminds me of the story of the man who ...read more

  • Joy Stealers – Philippians 3:1-6 Series

    Contributed by Scott Turansky on Apr 2, 2022
     | 2,382 views

    We learned about “joy stealers.” It’s a concept to which all of us can relate, since life is frequently full of circumstances that conspire to bring us down emotionally.

    You know, the biggest problem that parents report that their children have is not being able to handle disappointment well. How do I know that? Because I helped design what's called the Child Behavior Inventory. It's an inventory that measures nine different areas in a child's life that ...read more

  • It’s Time For A Spiritual Audit – Philippians 3:7-10 Series

    Contributed by Scott Turansky on Apr 2, 2022
     | 4,135 views

    What do we value? What do we strive for, day to day? And the interesting challenge here is that even when we value good things (e.g., loving our family, helping others), they don’t come close to who Jesus is.

    A couple of weeks ago I was looking at my credit card balance, and it was much higher than I expected it to be. So I knew I needed to do a little audit there myself. I checked it out and realized that some of these charges aren't even mine. So I called the credit card company and we together ...read more

    We need to stop and remind ourselves of who we are: Believers in Jesus who are serving him in a marathon, not a sprint, toward his kingdom. Therefore, let us never forget, or even minimize, who were are or what our “upward call” is.

    Paul the apostle must have been a sports fan. I say that because he uses a lot of terminology in the scriptures related to sports. He says – We don't wrestle with just flesh and blood. That's a wrestling illustration. He says – We fight the good fight. That's a boxing illustration. But ...read more
