    I Thee Wed: Jesus' Teaching On Marriage And Divorce Series

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Apr 16, 2021
     | 1,868 views

    Jesus taught that marriage is a sacred and serious undertaking by any man and woman who want to unite as one under the protection and direction of the LORD. We tend to make it less than God's ideal for us.

    What I am writing down here is the product of a message I originally presented to a group of men and women during a chapel service at our local rescue mission. The topic of marriage was probably not on their list of favorites for the fact that many of them had left abusive and toxic ...read more

    "Peter, Feed My Sheep” (16 Of 21)

     | 1,154 views

    As we were growing up, many of our parents tried to warn us about dangers that we faced, but we could not see them until later in life.

    As the children of God, we used to wonder what the Word of God was warning us about in Matthew 24:22-23. We read, “And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is ...read more

    We are living in a day of “Spiritual Forgetfulness.”

    We are living in a day of “Spiritual Forgetfulness.” Men are forgetting God. Forgetting His church. Forgetting the Lord’s Day. Forgetting the Lord’s tithe. But the fact remains, we must and will pay for neglect and forgetfulness. Hebrews 2:3 No truer text in the Bible. It still applies to every ...read more

    More To Do As Christians

    Contributed by Grant Adams on Dec 27, 2019

    Often there are two attitudes a Christian has toward serving Christ. The possibility of growing wearing and why do we have to do so much.

    Most of the New Testament was written to the disciples of Christ. Jesus taught from every angle to build His disciples. These Jews knew the Old Testament. He wanted them to know that He did not come to destroy the moral laws of God, vs. 17. He actually came to add to them. His conversation went ...read more

    Government has a way to either positively or negatively influence their nation. However, there is no comfort is born without hidden effort, there are no shortcuts to these systemic leadership failures except to turn to God.

    Therefore, I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men. 1 Timothy 2:1 History has revealed that, there are different types of government. Examples include: revolutionary, monarchical, republican, aristocratic, autocratic, ...read more

While salvation is an act of God’s marvelous grace offered to those who are underserving, ...read more

    God invites every person to abandon blame, own today’s choices, and trust His grace to build a brand-new future.

    The Broken Fence One spring morning a man discovered that the white picket fence behind his house had fallen over in the night.

    Jesus is coming soon. Prepare daily, own your faith, and don’t delay. Midnight is coming, but grace is here now.
