The Rejected Warrior Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Nov 9, 2014

If Jephthah sacrificed his daughter... how did he end up in Hebrews 11 as one of the heroes of the faith? And if he didn't, why doesn't God tell us that?

Redemption Rejected Series

Contributed by Doug Fannon on Apr 3, 2018

This message was preached on Palm Sunday. Many people will shout "Hosanna" on one day and the next will cry out "Crucify Him." The reason why many stop following Jesus often not a matter of disbelief but outright rejection.

Today is Palm Sunday, so called because when Jesus had His triumphal entry into Jerusalem, the people were exuberant and waved palm branches and placed them in the road where the Jesus, riding a donkey, walked into Jerusalem. It is interesting to note that palm branches, in that day was ...read more

Augustine said, “The punishment for sin is sin.” 2 Peter 2:19 teaches, “by what a man is overcome, by this he is enslaved.” GOD’S HAND REMOVED THERE IS NOTHING TO RESTAIN SIN. Our only hope is radical repentance.

Rejecting Sin Text: Hebrews 9 & 10 I have one big problem, and it is myself. Now I know I am not alone in this; I happen to believe the Bible as it is written. Written by men as moved by the Spirit of God. The medium used to convey the will of God to man is very fragile, changes as to ...read more

Jeremiah And Rejection

Contributed by Michael Blitz on Feb 1, 2025

People have lots of ideas about what the life of a prophet would be like, but one thing that might surprise you is that the main job of a prophet wasn’t telling people the future, any more ...read more
