The Rapture

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Jan 24, 2022

"Peter, Feed My Sheep” (12 Of 21)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 11, 2022

We often hear Christians say that they believe the Lord Jesus is coming soon to gather His church.

When some Christians say that, it makes you wonder why they say that. I say this because their life-styles do not reflect that they believe He is going to come very soon.

Great Is Thy Faithfulness

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on May 18, 2023

We do not hear many sermons from the Book of Lamentations and I am not really sure why.

But I feel that one of the reasons that I do not preach from the Book of Lamentations any more than I do is because the “Weeping Prophet” Jeremiah wrote it. Most folks enjoy spending their time with people who are laughing and having a good time, and we try to AVOID those who are always MOURNING ...read more
