     | 3,717 views

    The Ancient Office (I Peter 5:1-4) 1. A pastor thought God gave Him an idea, and he presented it in the monthly elders meeting. After giving his most impassioned plea and really “selling” the idea to the elder board, the board voted and voted down the pastors proposed changes 12-1. The head elder ...read more

    based on 17 ratings

    Evil is never overcome by more evil nor by playing into the power and victim games that others would use to entrap us. Evil is only overcome by goodness that lets our abusers know we will remain in control of how we choose to respond

    Mothers Are Special

    Why did Moses take the position that he did in choosing to suffer with God’s people rather than being identified with his step parents? It had to be through the influence of his mother.

    Mothers Are Special ILL. Erma Bombeck wrote a column telling of God in the act of creating mothers. She wrote that on the day God created mothers He had already worked long overtime. And an angel said to Him, "Lord, you sure are spending a lot of time on this one." The Lord turned & said, ...read more

    based on 10 ratings
     | 9,196 views

    If you trade your ALTAR for a VINEYARD, it will rob you of all the blessings of God, the safety under God’s umbrella of protection, and an eternal home with the Heavenly Father.

    An Altar or a Vineyard? Gen. 8:20, 9:20 And Noah builded an altar unto the Lord. 9:20 And Noah began to be a husbandman, and he planted a vineyard. These two verses bring a stark contrast to our attention: 1. In one text: Noah built an altar and saved his family 2. In the other: he built ...read more

    What does it mean to say that Jesus is the Second Person of the Trinity? What are some of the errors of understanding that have sometimes confused or deceived people?

    In the midst of his earthly ministry, Jesus asked his disciples, “Who do people say the Son of Man is?” They replied, “Some say John the Baptist; others say Elijah; and still others, Jeremiah or one of the prophets.” Jesus then asked them, “What about you? Who do you say that I am?” The gospels ...read more
