Contributed by Dwight Davis on May 17, 2024

Christians Are Out Of This World

Contributed by Thomas Andrufski on Jan 10, 2024

What Jesus said in Matthew 7 is something that every Christian should heed How do we keep from being one whom the Lord professes, “I never knew you”? We have to live a Holy Life separated from this World. How do we do that?

A Demon Cast Out.

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jun 13, 2023

A house divided, the unpardonable sin, the sign of Jonah, and our place as the brethren of Jesus.

A DEMON CAST OUT. Matthew 12:22-50. The spiritual blindness of the people opposed to Jesus is demonstrated in their reaction to His good works.

Stressed Out By Stress

Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Aug 27, 2020

One of the greatest truths of Christianity is God's promise to always be with the Born-Again Christian in every situation and circumstance of life. This is one truth that is known, yet somehow is hard to truly believe!

A more excellent Ministry based on a better Covenant founded on better promises.

OUT WITH THE OLD, IN WITH THE NEW. Hebrews 8:1-13. This is the “sum” of all that the writer has been saying so far: “We have such a high priest…” (Hebrews 8:1a).

Gaal Driven Out Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Mar 21, 2020

There is nothing surprising about what is related here. The drunken celebration of the previous night had left Gaal and his men both mentally and physically unprepared for any kind of effective military activity, and Abimelech and his army easily defeated them.
