Easter 2015: Empty Promises Of Easter

Contributed by Scott Bayles on Mar 22, 2016

Let's examine the promises of Easter. Each promise is marked by something empty—an empty cross, empty clothes, and an empty cave. It is the very fact that each of these is empty that assures us God's promises are not.

The Promise Of Mary’s Miracle

Contributed by Craig Condon on Jul 7, 2015

Death Is Not The End Of Life, I Promise! Series

Contributed by David Owens on Apr 13, 2020

Complete Salvation – The Secure Promise Of God

Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on May 30, 2020

What a person believes about God is the most important thing contained in their mind. It affects everything about them. Specifically, what they believe about God shapes them spiritually, emotionally, and physically.

Because of that, many Born-Again Christians suffer from an inability to feel forgiven, and live with nagging doubts and fear about their relationship with God. Failure to love and trust God often comes from picturing Him as ...read more

The Humble Will Receive Grace, I Promise! Series

Contributed by David Owens on Jul 13, 2020

God hates pride, but loves humility. God's promise is that if we humble ourselves before God, He will give us His grace. This truth is clearly displayed in the story of Nebuchadnezzar, and in the story of the Pharisee and the tax collector.

A. One day a certain preacher began to pride-fully muse about what a fine preacher he had become. 1. So he said to his wife, “How many really great preachers do you think there are?” 2. His wife thought for a minute and said, “Well, I don’t know how many really great preachers there are, but ...read more
