    K-Rations Series

    Contributed by Roshelle Brenneise on Aug 22, 2021
     | 1,682 views

    An army moves on it's stomach. Nutrition provides energy for the fight ahead and so it is with the Christian army.

    October 01, 2016 There is an old saying: “An army marches on its stomach” – if an army doesn’t feed its men it’s not going anywhere. Without food the troops can’t march, can’t maneuver, and they can’t fight. During WWII, the US tried solving this issue with “K rations”, which consisted of ...read more

    The True Elastic Thinker

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Mar 30, 2018
     | 2,695 views

    Our Lord spent His life teaching us to abandon our scripted behavior, our pursuit of pleasure for its own sake, our yearning for honor from others, for control over others.

    Good Friday 2018 Scripted or Elastic When returning home yesterday from our Holy Thursday Liturgy, the first act in this awesome drama of the Triduum, I heard a discussion with an author about the need to develop our innate ability to do “elastic thinking.” The idea is that the world is changing ...read more

    The Rational Mind Deceived

    Contributed by Scott Spencer on Jan 28, 2012
     | 3,493 views

    What is it about the idea of God that makes many people uncomfortable? The idea of God does make many people feel that way, you know. For a country that has "In God We Trust" on its money, we are pretty confused about what kind of God we trust.

    9th The Rational Mind Deceived Romans 1:18-23 January 22, 2012 The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of men who suppress the truth by their wickedness, since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them.

    This passage of Scripture discusses God’s anger at sin. Mankind's fall is imagined as a descending movement.

    This passage of Scripture discusses God’s anger at sin. It depicts why God legitimately censures humankind and some of what he has done with regards to it. Mankind's fall is imagined as a descending movement. It begins with dismissing God as the creator, declining to see the significant ...read more

    How can you be hopeful,joyful, enthusiastic, in a world and life full of problems? Here you find the answer...

    Romans 8:18-25: THE SECRET TO BEING A POSITIVE THINKER Have you ever heard someone say, “You should think more positively. You should be a positive thinker.” Sometimes that’s easy. Sometimes, it’s not. For example, think about the flooding in Texas. I read about one man down there, whose ...read more

    Lessons In Apologetics #2: Rationalism & Fideism

    The next epistemological methodology is rationalism. Of rationalism, Geisler writes, "Rationalism is characterized by its stress on the innate a priori ability of human reason to know truth. Basically, rationalists hold that what is knowable or demonstrable by human reason is true (29)." To the ...read more

    Faith's Hall Of Fame: Forward Thinkers Series

    Contributed by Mitchell Skelton on Dec 11, 2003
    based on 35 ratings
     | 3,695 views

    What all of these men and women of faith had in common was their ability to trust in the promises of God. They did not let the thinking of man come between their ability to think forward to the promises of a better land.

    Hebrews 11:20—40 INTRODUCTION “Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. This is what the ancients were commended for” (Heb. 11:1 – 2). Continuing our walk through Faith’s Hall of Fame, we come across a myriad of portraits of like-minded people. Their names ...read more

    Man Has Twisted, Contorted, Inverted, And Opposed All God’s Creation – Part 1 – Genesis Chapter 1 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Aug 27, 2023
     | 958 views

    Every aspect of God’s perfect creation in Genesis 1 has been inverted by man to make monstrosities out of what God created and said, “It is good.” Satan is the one who will destroy and mangle all for evil. We look at these items Satan has mangled, twisted and inverted.

    MAN HAS TWISTED, CONTORTED, INVERTED, AND OPPOSED ALL GOD’S CREATION – PART 1 – GENESIS CHAPTER 1 We are now living in a twisted, contorted and inverted world. In fact the change has not been a slow creeping of the years, but a very rapid convolution that has ascended from the pit and into the ...read more

    Full lives. Full social calendars. Full houses. But if we are honest, most of us are also full of famine! Why?

    Famine Pt. 3 - Refusing Rations I. Introduction I have challenged you to examine your own level of passion, pursuit and hunger for God. I told you that I believe we as a movement - Christianity - we are in the midst of a famine. However, I want to tell you that I believe the famine has come to ...read more

    The Great Depression # 4

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Dec 31, 2021
     | 1,015 views

    Last week, as we considered THE GREAT DEPRESSION, we dealt with the life of Elijah. He is the ideal person to study when you study the subject of depression.

    WHY IS HE THE IDEAL CANDIDATE FOR THIS STUDY? Because of what the Word of God says about him. Look at James 5:17, we read, "Elias was a man subject to like passions as we are…" Elijah represents us in that - (1) HE HAD HIS HIGH DAYS He enjoyed the highest of highs. We Americans ...read more

    Is it reasonable to believe in God? Can we confidently believe? This is a quick description of some of the keys to unlocking the truth hidden in plain sight.

    “Discoveries of the last half of the 20th century have brought the scientific community to the realization that our universe and our planet in the universe are so remarkably unique that it is almost impossible to imagine how this could have happened accidentally, causing many agnostic scientists to ...read more

    Manifestation Of Glory Series

    Contributed by Matthew Kratz on Jun 9, 2022
     | 1,115 views

    The rejection of God’s Manifestation of Glory is seen through 1) Humanity’s Rationalization (Romans 1:22), and 2) Humanity’s Religion (Romans 1:23).

    Romans 1:22–23. 22 Claiming to be wise, they became fools, 23 and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal man and birds and animals and creeping things. (ESV) For over a century, Eerdmans has been an important institution within the broader evangelical movement, ...read more

    Romans 3:1-8 Series

     | 5,123 views

    Man's reasoning and God's don't match up very well. Sinners, even very religious sinners, easily find fault with God, in how He deals with sin and righteousness. Our only hope for "making sense of it all" is to BELIEVE and accept EVERYTHING He says, rathe

     | 25,058 views

    Because the Christian is unsupervised, irresponsibility is a great possibility. Jesus tells us this parable so we will be encouraged to faithfulness & warned against unfaithfulness.

    LUKE 12: 41-48. [PARABLES IN LUKE] RESPONSIBLITY / RESPONSIBLE SERVANTS [John 21:15-17; 1 Peter 5:2-3] Last week we learn that Jesus’ disciples are to be alert, expecting His return.
