    Little Children, Keep Yourselves From Idols

    Contributed by Mark A. Barber on Aug 2, 2025
     | 159 views

    Why does John end his frst epistle with a warning against idolatry?

    Little Children, Keep Yourselves from Idols 1 John 5:18–21 NKJV We know that whoever is born of God does not sin; but he who has been born of God keeps himself, and the wicked one does not touch him. We know that we are of God, and the whole world lies under the sway of the wicked one. And we ...read more

     | 1,078 views

    There is a danger that we can bow down at the altars of idols and not realize the dangers involved. There is ONE TRUE GOD.

    COUNTERFEIT GODS? … SUBSTITUTE GOD’S? By Wade Martin Hughes, Sr. Kyfingers@aol.com (YouTube: Wade Hughes) (This is a series of lessons.) COMFORT, EASY… I HAVE AN EASY BUTTON… There is a cry today coming from the heart of people: God is too hard and his rules are mean. Perhaps there is a ...read more

    This is a sermon outline I am using for a podcast on GodNAmerica.com. This lesson contrasts the deadly outcomes of idolatry with the life-giving God.

    Daniel 3:17-18 (ESV) 17 If this be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver us out of your hand, O king. 18 But if not, be it known to you, O king, that we will not serve your gods or worship the golden image that you have set up.” 1.

    based on 1 rating
     | 4,259 views

    Yes, God plants the seed that is His Word in the heart of a person that is entwined with thorns, that is the cares and riches of this world. Well, what do we do? We’ve got to get rid of the thorns

    THORNS! 'And that which fell among thorns are they, which, when they have heard, go forth, and are choked with cares, and riches, and pleasures of this life, and bring no fruit to perfection.' -- Luke 8:14. God kept whispering the word ‘THORNS’ in my ears! As I kept walking, sitting ...read more

    No matter what you have done God will forgive you. Then take control.

    OVERRULED FROM HEAVEN Acts 26:9 I verily thought with myself, that I ought to do many things contrary to the name of Jesus of Nazareth. 10 Which thing I also did in Jerusalem: and many of the saints did I shut up in prison, having received authority from the chief ...read more

    When You Really Need God To Show Up

    Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Jun 5, 2016
    based on 4 ratings
     | 15,319 views

    The story is Elijah's proposed show-down between God and Baal at Mount Carmel. God doesn't want just part of us. He wants all of us, and he will tolerate no substitute, because he knows nothing else will satisfy in his place.

    1 Kings 18:20-39 When You Really Need God to Show Up Today’s story might be called, “The Great Show-down at Mount Carmel.” It is an ultimate, winner-takes-all kind of challenge, Yahweh God vs. Baal. Which one is real? Which one will come through for his people? But why all the ...read more

    What do you define as idolatry? Should you be concerned with the idea of idolatry in modern times?

    What do you define as idolatry? Should you be concerned with the idea of idolatry in modern times? If you ask assembly goers about whether idolatry exists in modern times they may say, “Yes”!

    He Is Jealous Of Me

    We should be captured by the idea that the God of the Universe is jealous for us. God in His infinite power and glory is concerned about you and me.

    Zechariah's Seventh Vision: Wickedness Removed Series

    Contributed by Richard Tow on May 16, 2022
     | 2,837 views

    This vision of a woman in a basket constitutes a promise from God to His people to remove wickedness from their midst. The previous vision (#6) was about removing individual rebels. This vision is the removal of the wicked system energizing sin.

    Today we come to one of the strangest passages in Scripture. It is recorded in Zechariah 5:5-11. Here Zechariah sees a vision of a basket, a woman in the basket, and two women with wings carrying the basket to Babylon. What does the basket represent? What about the woman in the basket? Are the two ...read more

    based on 94 ratings
     | 11,054 views

    How do we get Golden Calves in our live? By that I mean how do we get idols or things not worthy of our worship in our lives? Cause once they get in, they are difficult to get out!

    YOU NEVER SAW A CALF LIKE THIS Exodus 32:1-26 INTRODUCTION: In the Disney movie Dumbo, one scene finds Dumbo, caught in a tree. Timothy the mouse concludes that the only way he could have gotten up there is that he flew! This conclusion brings a hearty laugh from some nearby crows, and a song ...read more

    Who's On First Series

    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,568 views

    You know it doesn’t matter too much who is in what position in our lives until we settle the matter of who is on first. In other words, we need to know who is in first place in our lives. This is a issue that must be settled!

    Series: The Decalogue WHO’S ON FIRST Exodus 20:1-3 Intro: Some of you might remember the old Abbott and Costello skit, “Who’s on First”. Just a short while back I heard that skit again and it got the wheels of thinking going. You know it doesn’t matter too much who is in what position in our ...read more

    There are a lot of things that can be idols for us, but only God satisfies. What does it take to put God first, in that place of priority in our lives?

    For those of you who have been following Canadian Idol, you’re not going to want to miss tomorrow night. Over the past three weeks we’ve seen the judges narrow the field of contestants from 13,000 all the way down to 143.

    The Mind Of The Lord Series

    Contributed by Robert Leroe on Aug 25, 2013
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,217 views

    God transcends words. He is beyond language. We cannot reduce Him to our experience. God is unique and different from anything in this world. He is massive, boundless, beyond all imagining. God is His own category.

    I’d like to explain to you Who God is…but I can’t. Isaiah speaks of God as so massive, so far above us, that we can barely take in who He is. God surpasses human comprehension. Some people think they can put God “in a box”; that is, have Him fully figured out. How ...read more
