The Lord Is Good

Contributed by Mark Armstrong on Jan 6, 2019

A short sermon for a funeral service. I wrote this talk for the funeral of a Christian person.

In Nahum 1.7—a book in the Bible not often heard—the prophet Nahum says, “The LORD is good, a refuge in times of trouble. He cares for those who trust in him” (Nahum 1:7). It may seem counter-intuitive to consider this verse at a funeral when death is clearly on our minds. How can we say that the ...read more

The Tears Of Jesus

Contributed by Grant Adams on Apr 15, 2023

Jesus shed tears for many reasons. We, as Christians, should shed tears for the same. Is our heart sensitive to the things of God?

Chemists say that tears are a combination of sodium chloride, phosphate of lime, mucus, and water. The Bible reveals that tears are the expressions of a broken heart. The Bible is splattered with tears from Genesis to Revelation. In the Old Testament, Esther fell down before the King's and wept ...read more

Christians Dead To The Law

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 24, 2022

This chapter seems to be in the wrong place.

WHY? In chapter 6 Paul told us clearly that Christians do not continue in sin, because when Christ died to sin, so did we. We are no longer "in Adam." Our victory over sin is established through the death of Christ Jesus. Now you would think that after this tremendous victory we have ...read more
