    God describes the two key elements that comprise a great sermon in His eyes

    If you received yesterday’s State newspaper than you saw the striking headline, “Lou: Locker room or boardroom, Holtz can fire ‘em up.” I suppose that headline is no surprise considering that we live in the hometown of the University of South Carolina and yesterday was the dawn of the 2001 ...read more

    Don’t You Dare Even To Omit A Word, Any Denier Of The Truth! Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jan 5, 2024
     | 1,223 views

    We can not play games with God for the preaching of His inspired word is so essential, and we become deniers if we omit from our preaching that which we might not find pleasing to ourselves or others. Preaching must not omit a word as Jeremiah learned from the Lord. Be faithful.

    DON’T YOU DARE EVEN TO OMIT A WORD, ANY WHO WOULD DENY THE TRUTH! [1]. INTRODUCTION Some events in the Christian world cause me distress when I learn of them for there are too many practices that are downright dishonouring to God. Those of you who listen to me or read what I write will know I ...read more

    In essentials unity, in non-essentials liberty, in all things charity.

    At first glance, you might wonder just what all this writing about eating has to do with your Christian faith. After all, the text was penned with Jewish and Gentile Christians in mind and specifically written for the church at Rome. The Jewish converts had a problem with the rigid Jewish laws.

    What does a successful ministry look like. How should we gauge the success of a preacher or a church. By worldly standards, John's ministry was a failure. By Jesus' standards John the Baptist was the greatest of all prophets.

    2 Timothy 4:1-8 is a charge to be faithful in ministry.

    Introduction In his commentary on Paul’s Second Letter to Timothy, John MacArthur noted that the final words of dying men and women usually are stripped of hypocrisy and reflect accurately their true beliefs and feelings. On his deathbed, Napoleon said, “I die before my time; and my body will be ...read more

    In this text we see something that often occurs in churches. A man is sleeping in church.

    But it is more than just a man sleeping in this passage of scripture. This man named Eutychus was sitting on a window sill while Paul preached a very lengthy sermon, and he fell out the window and died. • We ministers are indeed thankful for this passage of scripture, because when we see men and ...read more

     | 5,209 views

    God charges the church with the responsibility to avoid those who cause division and create obstacles. It is the responsibility of the entire assembly, and not that of the elders alone.

    “I appeal to you, brothers, to watch out for those who cause divisions and create obstacles contrary to the doctrine that you have been taught; avoid them. For such persons do not serve our Lord Christ, but their own appetites, and by smooth talk and flattery they deceive the hearts of the naïve.” ...read more

    Knowing Christ is where true faith begins. From there we grow through the essentials of discipleship: Bible study, prayer, preaching, worship and Christian friendship and fellowship.

    What is faith? A Sunday-School teacher asked her class one day, “What is faith?” the class sat there quietly - which was a surprise in itself, so the teacher asked again, “can anyone tell me what is faith?” You could see the little minds working and one boy stuck up his hand. The teacher said, ‘Ok ...read more

    There are so many “gospels” are being PREACHED today! Many PROGRAMS, STRATEGIES, FORMULAS and MAN-MADE DOCTRINES that tries to make the Gospel PRESENTABLE to the audience are being INVENTED today. These DOCTRINES of MAN is for man! I mean, PLEASING man.
