John 5: The Divinity Of Christ

Contributed by Mike Bryant on Apr 24, 2021

A large share of the population, and even of Christians, believe that Jesus was not God incarnate, but a mere man. In John 5, Jesus answers those accusing Him of blasphemy with a claim of divinity that leaves no room for that belief.

I) The divinity of Jesus is a fundamental and essential tenet of Christianity. It is also one of the most difficult aspects of Christianity for the world to accept. A) A survey conducted in 2020 by Ligonier Ministries found that 52 percent of U.S. adults believe that Jesus is not God. Not only ...read more

Transverse Orientation Series

Contributed by Sean Dees on Apr 25, 2021

We have artificial sweeteners, ingredients, body parts, grass, flowers, light, etc... if there is something natural than most likely you will find some form of an artificial facsimile of it. If man can somehow make a mold of it and reproduce it, you will find it sitting on a shelf somewhere.

Exodus 7:(8) And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying, (9) When Pharaoh shall speak unto you, saying, Shew a miracle for you: then thou shalt say unto Aaron, Take thy rod, and cast [it] before Pharaoh, [and] it shall become a serpent.

Let Justice Run Down

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Apr 15, 2021

In Amos' time, justice and righteousness no longer prevailed in Israel; but rather, it had become wormwood. Wormwood is toxic, so Israel was dealing with a toxic justice system - but God was going to bring justice!

In Amos 5:24, we read, “Let justice run down like water, and righteousness like a mighty stream!” This is a verse that probably resonates with us all. We all desire justice! I read some Christian articles that predicted the year 2020 to be “the year of justice,” but I doubt anyone who made these ...read more

Be Bold In Prayer

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Aug 22, 2022

How many of us can as children of God approach Him boldly and ask Him for the greater blessings that He has in store for us. Today many are satisfied with leading a mediocre life of just attending church on Sunday, reading a few verses and praying.

We read in Judges 1:14-15, Acsah went to live with Othniel. Othniel told Acsah to ask her father for some land. She went to her father. When she got off her donkey, Caleb asked her, "What is wrong?" Acsah answered him, "Give me a blessing. You gave me dry desert land in the Negev. ...read more

A Wrestling Match With God

Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Sep 12, 2022

Jacob needed to deepen his relationship with God. He also needed an object lesson that would teach him some things about the way he related to God. Because Jacob needed a change. Most of us need that too, both the lesson and often the change.

Alba 4-21-13 A Wrestling Match With God Genesis 32:22-32 Most of you probably know about the song called “A Boy Named Sue” that was recorded by Johnny Cash.

Slipping Down The Lifeline – But Not To The End (We Hope) Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Sep 17, 2022

There is the lifeline that connects our communion with the Lord but we can slip and fail, and so we slip down that lifeline of communion. Many of the great men of God failed but were wonderfully restored in the comfort of God. What can we lose as we slip? How do we return?

SLIPPING DOWN THE LIFELINE – BUT NOT TO THE END (we hope) Tales are told of people in rescue attempts trying to hold on to a rope in the stormy sea or raging river and over time their grip lessens and through fatigue they slip further and further down the rescue rope until they disappear.

The Ukraine War Is It Gog/Magog & Are You Rapture Ready.

Contributed by Melvin Maughmer, Jr. on Mar 13, 2022

I don’t try to manipulate scripture to fit a certain scenario, I believe in letting scripture speak for itself. For centuries, end times preachers and prophecy prognosticators have tried to cram every current event into proof that we are living in the last days and Jesus’ imminent return.
