The Little Man With A Big Need

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 22, 2022

This is a popular text with preachers, and I have heard several intriguing titles for it besides the one I am using today.

Here are some of them that I recall: • A man who went out on a limb for Jesus • The Salvation of Shorty the Racketeer • The Short Scoundrel that Seriously Sought The Saviour • Seeking the True Vine By Sitting In A Tall tree Any of these titles would be appropriate for this sermon, but I have ...read more

The Book Of Joshua 2 Of 9

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 26, 2022

The Book of Joshua teaches us many valuable lessons. One of the lessons we learn in the book of Joshua is that God is a GOD OF GRACE.

When I say God is a God of Grace, I am saying that God does what He does for us, not because of our goodness, but because of His goodness! Illus: When we think about the God of Grace, we think of the man who owned the city's newspaper who had 3 sons. He offered ownership of the paper to the ...read more

He That Winneth Souls Is Wise No. 2

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 31, 2022

The story is told of a young farmer who was drafted into the Confederate army to serve during the Civil War.

The war was such a strain on the South that they did not have time to train the recruits. They drafted them to serve and placed them on the battle line to fight. This one young man was drafted and never had time to learn how: • To salute. • To keep in step as he marched. • Even, to know what the ...read more

Rolling Stones

Contributed by Dennis Lee on Apr 2, 2022

One of major problems most people face today are blocked entrances or exits. You see, we’re caught in tombs with stones covering them, and these stones keep us from entering the light of an abundant life Jesus came to give, which is what the resurrection of Jesus is all about.

Rolling Stones Mark 16:1-8 Now, I knew the danger of naming today’s study, “Rolling Stones,” because many of you immediately thought of the English rock band by the same name with Mick Jagger and the crew. Or maybe you also thought about the monthly magazine from the 60’s whose focus was ...read more

God Is Not The Author Of Confusion

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 5, 2022

All of us have driven through neighborhoods and noticed that many of the houses are built with carports - some even with double carports - to park their cars out of the bad weather.

In many of these homes, from the street you see the garage doors are open, and you immediately come to the conclusion there is no way they could park a car in there because they are filled with what looks like junk. It is even dangerous to walk into some of these carports because you might get ...read more

Missing The Hour Of Our Visitation With God

Contributed by James May on Apr 10, 2022

A sermon preached on Palm Sunday. Israel missed the hour of her Visitation with God as they rejected Christ. Let us not miss our times of visitations but be prepared for his coming, both in our hearts, at the rapture and at his Second Coming as the King of Glory!

Today being Palm Sunday, we always reflect upon what it really means. 1,989 years ago, a young Rabbi named Yeshua sat on the summit of a mountain looking down over the city of Jerusalem and lamented deeply in his heart for the condition of the people that he had come to try and save from the ...read more

Eschatology 10 Of 16 The Tribulation Period

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 13, 2022

Eschatology 4 Of 16 The Tribulation Period

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 13, 2022

Today we are going to talk about something that is horrifying to even think about.

In the last three sermons in this Bible series on eschatology, we have been having a shouting time talking about the rapture of the church and receiving our glorified bodies. But much of what we are going to be talking about today, will cause us stand in awe! Most of the Book of Revelation deals ...read more

Second Commandment (2 Of 12)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 14, 2022

As we preach through this series on the commandments I would like to remind you again of the importance of the importance of considering just why God gave these commandments to children of Israel.

They had been in cruel bondage for four hundred and thirty years. Then God freed them from that bondage. God reminds them of that in verse 2, we read, “I am the Lord thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.” Isn’t it amazing, if I do you a big ...read more

The Book Of Revelation (Revelation 18)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 21, 2022

Before we get started in Revelation chapter 18 we need to understand why Revelation chapter 17 and 18 is in the scriptures.

In Revelation 16 the Lord made the most important announcement to mankind that will ever be made. That announcement is made when this seventh vial is poured out on the inhabitants of the earth and the Lord says, IT IS DONE! In other words the world as we know it to be will be destroyed by almighty ...read more
