     | 4,576 views

    Here are some separate topics that can be included in one message about Romanism, and how it is quite different from Biblical Christianity. Celibacy, Mary, Inquisition and more.

    Biblical vs Romanist Approaches to Celibacy (Presentation given at annual AFEC conference) When I was first assigned this topic, several questions occurred to me, the answers to which form the heart of the following message. I trust they are your questions too. Question ONE: What is celibacy, and ...read more

    Paul's closing words summarise what has been presented to Timothy in this letter.

    “O Timothy, guard the deposit entrusted to you. Avoid the irreverent babble and contradictions of what is falsely called ‘knowledge,’ for by professing it some have swerved from the faith. “Grace be with you.” [1] It is no secret that I am a news junkie; I fill my ...read more

     | 13,530 views

    When someone directs us to do something, before we take the first step, most of us want to know all the details. Abraham didn’t ask; he just kept on moving by faith until he came to this land that was going to one day be Israel.

    INTRODUCTION In college, usually the most basic freshman courses are labeled “101.” It may be Algebra 101, History 101, Calculus 101 or something like that. Today I want to teach from Romans 4, some of the basics about faith. My favorite uncle was Uncle Charles, my mother’s ...read more

    The secret to living the Christian life is not trying to imitate Jesus. The secret to the Christian life is allowing Jesus simply to control every part of your life so his character is just displayed.

    INTRODUCTION If you are going to interview for a new job, you want to know what the salary is, but you also want to know what the “fringe benefits” are. The benefits I’m going to talk about today are not “fringe” by any stretch of the imagination. Instead, they are ...read more

    First Share Of The Crops Series

     | 6,633 views

    Rewards come only after we work. The Apostle is encouraging those who are called by the Name of the Son of God to work diligently.

    “It is the hard-working farmer who ought to have the first share of the crops.” [1] Paul has presented a variety of images to illustrate the strong spiritual life expected of those who will follow the Master. As we saw in a previous message, the emphasis in these verbal pictures the ...read more

    Consider carefully the things Jesus said about Himself

    (Various texts) Over the years I have heard many opinions about Jesus expressed by people who, at least in my presence and to my knowledge, have demonstrated no desire to put forth any effort to find out what is said or known – or can be known – about Him in any context outside of that ...read more

    What About John?

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jan 10, 2019
    based on 1 rating
     | 13,127 views

    Our Lord appoints each of His followers to a particular task. Though the task may appear difficult, it is common that we Christians attempt to turn His command by asking what He is doing in the life of another. We need to learn to focus on His work in our own life.

    “[Jesus said] ‘Truly, truly, I say to you, when you were young, you used to dress yourself and walk wherever you wanted, but when you are old, you will stretch out your hands, and another will dress you and carry you where you do not want to go.’ (This he said to show by what kind of death he was ...read more

    Abraham and Sarah and then Hagar. That’s a challenge for all of them and we see how God deals with each person individually.

    Please open your Bibles with me to Genesis 18. We’re going verse by verse through the book of Genesis. It’s a great trek for us to be wandering through Genesis and learning practical principles along the way. We come to this one section in Genesis 16-18 that’s about this fractured family.
