    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Oct 11, 2013
    based on 7 ratings
     | 4,200 views

    God’s delays are not denials. God will not fail to fulfil that which He has promised.

    THE CERTAINTY OF THE PROMISE. Genesis 15:7-21. The priest-king Melchisedec knew God Most High, maker of heaven and earth (Genesis 14:18-19). This same God had led Abram out of his father’s house, and now identified Himself as “the LORD” - the One who was, and is, and continues to be (Genesis ...read more

    Jesus' coming is delayed to give the greater number of people the greater opportunity to repent.

    TIME FOR TRUE REPENTANCE. 2 Peter 3.

    Paul's Sermon At Athens: The Evidence Of A Shepherd's Heart

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jun 6, 2021
     | 1,754 views

    When Paul arrived in Athens, he was grieved over the rank idolatry of the city with statues and temples dedicated to various gods and goddesses. He knew that the Gospel had to be proclaimed. Souls hung in the balance. This is the heart of a man of God and the example we need to follow today.

    When Paul arrived in Athens to wait for Silas and Timothy to join him, he looked around the city and did not marvel at the beauty of the city's temples or the culture or anything typical of a tourist's curiosity. If he were to be classified as a "sightseer", the sights he saw ...read more

    Even righteous people live with disappointments & hurt. Instead of focusing on the absent, we need to empathize and support them in their questioning & doubts that God would touch them in spite of their conditions. Elizabeth & Zechariah are our examples.

    GOD HAS ANSWERED YOUR PRAYERS LUKE 1:5-25: 5 There was in the days of Herod, the king of Judea, a certain priest named Zacharias, of the division of Abijah.
