    The Logic Of Pursuing Godliness Series

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on May 11, 2020
     | 2,606 views

    Paul clearly taught salvation by grace alone through faith alone in Jesus Christ alone. Such a teaching could easily raise two objections Paul addresses. And in doing so, he charts God’s agenda for holy living for the believer.

    The Logic of Pursuing Godliness (Romans 6:1-23) 1. It must be tough right now for to take the Census, with Covid and all. 2. I have a funny Jewish joke about this.

    Are We To Be Prepared To Face Doom Or Deliverance?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Feb 11, 2024
     | 799 views

    In this passage of Scripture, God is placing judgment on a sinful world. Assyria had been a powerful nation. They were proud of themselves at how they conquered the various lands and its people.

    The Patience and Power of God: Like Jonah, Nahum was a prophet to the capital of the Assyrian Empire, Nineveh, and he prophesied somewhere in the range of 663 and 654 B.C. Jonah had seen the city atone a century sooner, however it had fallen once more into devilishness. Assyria was controlling the ...read more

Crowds pushed their way into the little house in Capernaum so that the only way a paralyzed man could get to Jesus was ...read more

    The Late Bronze Age (c. 1550–c. 1200 BCE) was mainly one of Egyptian dominance in Canaan, although the Hittites of Anatolia contested their power there. The period has also been marked by incursions of marauders called Hapiru, or Habiru (Egyptian: ʿApiru).

    Shipwrecked: Our Condition Before Christ Series

    Contributed by Paul Dayao on Sep 27, 2025
     | 310 views

    Using the analogy of a shipwreck, this sermon on Ephesians 2:1-3 explores Paul's stark description of our condition without Christ: spiritually dead, helplessly swept along by the currents of the world, the flesh, and the devil, and destined for God's just wrath.

    Introduction Imagine a person who has survived a terrible shipwreck. They are floating alone in the middle of a vast, dark ocean. Though they are breathing and their heart is beating, are they truly alive? They are cut off from land, from safety, from any source of help. They are completely at the ...read more
