    Why Every Christian Should Tithe

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Jun 29, 2023
     | 2,509 views

    In this sermon I do not expect to hear a lot of Amen but it is my prayer that God might receive a lot of good results from the preaching of HIS Word. Today I will be preaching on WHY EVERY CHRISTIAN SHOULD TITHE.

    I preach on tithing at least once a year for several reasons. (1) Because I am a Bible preacher. This is what God has called me to do…PREACH HIS WORD. But I preach on tithing for another reason because I want (2) I want the blessings of God on your life not God’s curse. Many of us if not all ...read more

    Why are some of our prayers not answered? What can we learn from the prayer of Jabez? May we learn to pray in a way that honors God so that we can receive answers to our fervent prayers.

    We read in 1 Chronicles 4:9-10, “Jabez was more honorable than his brothers, and his mother named him Jabez saying, "Because I bore him with pain. Now Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, "Oh that You would bless me indeed and enlarge my border, and that Your hand might be with me, ...read more

    Beloved friends, the Lamb of God has been presented to you. Will you believe in Him and receive Him? Or will you continue to turn and walk away? The choice is yours. The destiny of your soul is at stake. What will you do?

    A Day’s Wages Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 25, 2022

     | 7,616 views

    Gathering lost souls for the kingdom is considered labor. When Jesus returns, the payment that laborers (believers) receive is eternal life, and that exact same wage goes to all who have been hired, or rather called, by the Lord.

    This evening’s message is entitled “A Day’s Wages,” and it’s taken from what is commonly called “The Parable of the Workers in the Vineyard.” This parable speaks of the reward or payment for one’s labor in the kingdom. There is a story among Aesop’s Fables that addresses the reward for one’s ...read more

    The greatest gift we can receive is the gift of salvation. But God's gift giving does not end there. God provides us with gifts that enhance our lives and build up the body of Christ, the church.

     | 3,656 views

    Like the disciples we must wait “a little while” to receive everything Jesus has promised us. And like the disciples there will be a time of grief while we wait. But Jesus promises that our grief will turn to joy.

    “In a little while you can go out and play.” “After a little while we’ll be going to the pool.” “After a little while I am going to be serving pie and ice cream.” “In a little while we’ll your mom and dad will be home.” “In a little while you can take a break.” “The doctor says that after a ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,913 views

    God is mindful of all our ways and therefore it is crucial that we live in such a way that we receive a good testimony from God. The bible records these attestations of God, about those who walked in total obedience to Him.

    We read in Psalm 91:15, “He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honor him.” (AFV) For our study today we will only focus on the first part of this verse, “He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him;” These are the words of the ...read more

     | 1,761 views

    Most think that when they stand before God in Judgment, it won't be pleasant, because they know their faults, weaknesses, & selfish. What if instead, we receive from God a ringing commendation and a smile of approval?

    In the parable of the Prodigal Son, the younger son squandered his inheritance. And yet, his father received him back. So, is what we do with our money not important?!’ The Parable of the Dishonest Manager is Jesus' answer.

    "Not the prodigal son" Today we’re looking at what is often called the Parable of the Dishonest Manager, or the Parable of the Shrewd Manager, or similar.

    The sixth church that Jesus addressed received no words of rebuke or chastisement. It was faithful to the Gospel, open to opportunities, and will be delivered from its enemies at the coming hour of trial upon the world. Take up your cross and do the same.
