Life Of Integrity

Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Sep 20, 2012

Integrity is the mark of true character. The best men needing redemption and mercy; or the outward walk before men, and the secret walk with God. As a man whose feet are firmly fixed upon even ground is apprehensive of no fall, so the pious worshippers of

Life-Giving Reproof Series

Contributed by Dennis Davidson on May 17, 2012

Reproof is a very positive use of speech, provided it's motivated by love and directed by wisdom. Rebuke is not pleasant to our fallen nature but we learn to value it for the results it brings. The best and wisest of us falls short and has much to learn &

PROVERBS 15: 31-32 LIFE-GIVING REPROOF Reproof is a very positive use of speech, provided it's motivated by love and directed by wisdom.

What Does God Want With Me? Series

Contributed by David Dykes on Oct 9, 2014

One of these fall mornings when the temperature drops, you're going to walk outside and when you breathe, you'll see a vapor cloud. Watch how fast it disappears: That's the length of your life according to the Bible.

INTRODUCTION A few weeks ago, I was channel surfing on my satellite radio, and I heard a pop song that kept repeating, “What do you want from me?” I tend to baptize, or biblicize everything I hear, so that phrase made me wonder if people ever stop and ask God, “God, what do you ...read more

Our Confession Of Sin Series

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Dec 14, 2019

Like Abraham, Jacob and David, and like all of our individual ancestors, we fall short of the mark too often–committing venial sins of omission and commission, and perhaps even total turn-aways from God’s plan.

Tuesday of the 3rd Week in Advent 2019 Our Confession of Sin I have to admit that this is one of my favorite weekday Masses in the whole Lectionary, because we hear the genealogy of Our Lord Jesus. These old Hebrew names don’t necessarily roll off the tongue, but the list is important, because ...read more

Multiply Your Zeal Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 4, 2021

The overall shape of the Bible’s story is like a U in which events begin in perfection, fall into corruption, and painfully wind their way back to the final defeat of evil and the triumph of good. The crucial turning point is the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

The First Father Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 7, 2021

It is true that we must trace the fall of man to Adam, and there is no way to minimize the harm he brought to the human race by his sin. But the fact remains that somebody has to have been an example of righteousness in that beginning generation, and the evidence points to Adam.

Ronald and Nancy Reagan had something in common in their childhood, and that was that they both had fallen fathers. When Ron came home one day as an 11 year old boy he found his father flat on his back on the front porch, and there was no one there to help. He said, "He was drunk, dead to ...read more

The Minister Of Mayhem Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on May 5, 2021

Believers are aware of the adversary we face in this walk of faith. Since the fall of Adam, Satan has sought to hinder and defeat believers. He has power and influence, but like all of creation, Satan must submit to the sovereign power of God.

The Minister of Mayhem Esther 5: 9-14 Our text today follows Esther’s entrance before the king. She was received of Ahasuerus and promised that her request would be granted. She had invited Ahasuerus and Haman to a small banquet that served as an invitation to a larger banquet the following day – ...read more

Loyalty, Allegiance, Dedication

Contributed by Melvin Newland on Nov 16, 2023

A lack of knowledge, a lack of loyalty runs rampant in our world today. Many truly do not stand for anything or are even committed to anything. They are blown around like fall leaves in a windstorm, swirling around, going this way & that.

When Man Tried To Become Like God Series

Contributed by Jim Butcher on Feb 20, 2024

In this sermon series we are comparing the early chapters of Genesis with the late chapters in John. In this sermon, we explore how the Fall happened because man wanted to become like God and salvation happened because God was willing to become a man.

THE TEMPTION IN THE FALL: Satan told Adam and Eve that they could become like God. - Genesis 3:5. SIDE NOTE: This was also the issue in Satan’s fall. - Isaiah 14:12-15; Ezekiel 28:11-19; 1 Timothy 3:6. - His pride and desire to lift himself up. - Look up Isaiah 14:12-14.

Living Water

Contributed by Samuel M on May 20, 2024

Living water first heals before infusing (bringing) Jesus' life into our lives to make us live. The living water heals our past, present, physical bodies, minds, and all that occurred as a result of the fall of mankind.

And it shall be that every living thing that moves, wherever the rivers go, will live. There will be a very great multitude of fish, because these waters go there; for they will be healed, and everything will live wherever the river goes.

Ash Wednesday 2020 Series

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Mar 1, 2022

If God is love, and He certainly is, and if He became human so that we could, when we fall asleep for the last time, be swept up into the awesome beauty, truth, and goodness of the Trinity, then we should keep ourselves ready.

Ask Wednesday homily I beg you, on behalf of Christ, to be reconciled to God.

Measure Upon Measure – Curse – The Restoration Of God - Part 5 Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jun 28, 2025

Sin produces cursing. Through the Fall in the garden of Eden, the serpent was cursed. Then the ground and creation was cursed. That is why life is so difficult in many ways. We trace that theme. Then the Law of Moses cursed the keeper, but Christ became a curse for sinners.

The Book Of Lamentations – Part 41 – Is A Father Responsible And Punished For A Son’s Sin, And Vise-Versa? – Chapter 5 Lamentations 5:7 Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Oct 3, 2025

Who bears the responsibility for sins, and whether the fathers can be blamed for the judgement that falls on the children, is what we consider today. I hope this causes you to think. This whole business is a challenge to fathers in the raising of their families. This is a serious matter indeed.

THE BOOK OF LAMENTATIONS – PART 41 – IS A FATHER RESPONSIBLE AND PUNISHED FOR A SON’S SIN, AND VISE-VERSA? – CHAPTER 5 Lamentations 5:7 We are looking at important subjects in this final chapter and I don’t want to rush through the material.
