Less Is More

Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on Apr 13, 2021

The American Dream and the Prosperity Gospel are both nightmares.

1Ti 6:5 Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself. 6 But godliness with contentment is great gain. 7 For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out. 8 And having ...read more

The Succession Of Elisha.

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Mar 29, 2022

With the dramatic departure of Elijah, his servant Elisha calmly took up the mantle. The Holy Spirit ensures continuity in ministry.

THE SUCCESSION OF ELISHA. 2 Kings 2:1-2; 2 Kings 2:6-14. 1. The main theme of 2 Kings 2:1-14 is not so much the whirlwind, which is only cursorily mentioned (2 Kings 2:1), but rather the matter of succession. Nicely poised between the end of the reign of one king (2 Kings 1:17-18), and the ...read more

Rebuke Hirelings

Contributed by Nettie J Pennington on May 27, 2023

This message aims to proclaim that hirelings are not true shepherds.

Key Scripture: "The hired hand is not the shepherd and does not own the sheep. So when he sees the wolf coming, he abandons the sheep and runs away. Then the wolf attacks the flock and scatters it" (John 10:12, NIV). PRAYER – Father God, we humble ourselves and come once again thanking ...read more

Great Expectations

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jun 23, 2023

John the Baptist's followers struggle with changing their allegiance to Jesus.

Zach was tired. He had been coming down to Tiberias every week for almost two months, bringing news and food to John in prison, and it looked like he’d probably be doing it for the rest of the year. Nothing had changed. After Herod arrested John for publicly accusing him of incest and adultery, ...read more

Balaam's Final Prophecies (Numbers 24)

Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Nov 28, 2024

Can God use a very imperfect prophet? Let's look at Numbers 24.

Did God use a crooked prophet to foretell blessings on Israel? Does God still use very imperfect preachers to tell the Good News? Let’s look at Numbers 24.

Marriage And Pork

Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on Jan 31, 2024

If your group forbids marriage or has food restrictions for holiness or Christian service then you need to leave. The leaders who made these rules are false prophets.

1 Timothy 4:1 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; 2 Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron; 3 Forbidding to marry, and commanding to ...read more

Dead Theologians

Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on Nov 30, 2023

Not all dead theologians are in the grave.

You can quote the written Word of God from Genesis to Revelation and go to Hell. You can have the Living Word of God, Jesus, and go to Heaven. Unless you are filled with the Holy Spirit of God who gives life to the written Word, you will go to Heaven defeated and fruitless while giving the wrong ...read more

Beware Of Ravenous Wolves Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Feb 23, 2024

Things are not always as they seem; and Jesus shares what to look for in identifying false prophets. These are false teachers, ravenous wolves, who seek to feed and save themselves, rather than feed and protect the flock.

Allow me to begin with an illustration: As Little Red Riding Hood is heading to her grandmother’s house; a wolf comes along and finds out where she lives. He travels ahead, enters the house, and eats the grandmother! When Little Red Riding Hood arrives, she notices her grandmother’s unusual ...read more
