    The resurrection is the foundation on which the gospel is built and as long as we have this foundation, we are free from fear and have reason to hope. Found here in chapter fifteen are the reasons why I have taken my stand on the gospel of Christ.

    Contributed by Michael Blitz on Jun 22, 2025
     | 404 views

    The Parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus is amazing for a number of reasons. One reason that we will look at today is that Jesus makes a clear statement that what will bring people to Christ is not great miracles, but simply God's Word shared with them.

    Why the Gospel is Greater than Miracles Good Morning. Our lesson this morning, Jesus’ Parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus, comes in response to the Pharisees having come once again to argue with Jesus. That’s a big point to the parable, the whole idea that we so much want to try to justify ...read more

    I am not one who keeps up with the various rock group singers. In fact, I do not believe I could name one rock group that exists today.

    What is interesting about these rock groups is how they decide who is going to be the lead singer. Illus: Someone suggested they did it this way. Someone starts off as a guitar player but he can not play. The group then gives him some sticks, puts him in the back, and calls him a drummer. When ...read more

    These are things that will ruin our lives and cause us to make fools out of ourselves. There is no way that a Christian can be controlled by the Holy Spirit if they are controlled by these substances. But these are not the only things that control Christians. For example, there are many ...read more
