Cannibals Or Snackers?

Contributed by Bradley Boydston on Jun 3, 2002

The Lord’s Supper isn’t a snack. Nor is it really a cause for charges of cannibalism. But somewhere in between the two is the mystery of Christ present in the bread and cup that we share together. And if Christ is somehow really present in these elements

Are you a cannibal or are you just snacking? You heard me – are you a cannibal or are you just snacking? Or something else? Ancient Christians were accused of cannibalism. Why?

Since You Have Been Raised With Christ

Contributed by Steve Shepherd on May 21, 2007

In our text, Paul speaks of the new life that we have in Christ. He looks at it from three different perspectives: past, present and future. 1- A past experience 2- A present enjoyment 3- A future ecstasy

INTRO.- ILL.- I am reminded of the old story about the funeral of the unsavory character who had never been to church in his life. He had led a very questionable life, meaning he’d done about anything and everything a person could think of and it wasn’t good. The service was being conducted by a ...read more

Scripture And Suicide Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 9, 2021

Suicide is almost always folly in our culture, for it is basically just a means of escape. It is usually based on ignorance of the future. People think their present situation is permanent, and they cannot stand to think of living with their present burden for the rest of their lives.

The book of Jonah gives a very favorable account of the attitude and character of the pagans involved. In fact, they are at points pictured on a higher level than Jonah himself. At last, however, we see a change in Jonah, and some of his good character breaks through. The sailors had all ...read more

"The Spirits Of Christmas"

Contributed by Robert Leroe on Dec 15, 2002

Like Scrooge, we too can reclaim Christmas, with the help of the “spirits” of Christmas Past, Present, and Future

“The Spirits of Christmas” “Bah, Humbug!” shouted Ebenezer Scrooge, using a mild Victorian form of profanity, meaning “nonsense” or “rubbish”.
