Sermon On The Plain

Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Feb 10, 2022

Have you noticed that Jesus often contradicts popular ideas, because He taught us to worship God also with our minds? Perhaps He gave the Sermon on the Plain after the Sermon on the Mount. It contains some contrasting thoughts. Let’s look at Luke 6:17-26.

Be Careful Of Divisive Spirits

Contributed by Nettie J Pennington on Jun 22, 2023

The goal of a divisive person is to cause conflict. "I urge you, my friends: watch out for those who cause divisions and upset people's faith and go against the teaching you received. Keep away from them" (Rom. 16:17, GNT)!

People that participate in divisive arguments have an unhealthy interest in creating strife. However, a mature, faith-filled person recognizes that participating in contentious discussions will not end the matter. With the knowledge of God and the wisdom of the Lord, we understand that calmer ...read more

Three Portraits Of Christ

Contributed by Roger Thomas on Feb 22, 2007

Of Prayers And Trumpets And Prophetic Proclamation

Contributed by Greg Nance on Feb 18, 2010

Revelation leaves us gasping for breath when we see God’s response to the saints prayers. When God sends even his limited judgments against his enemies... "Woe, woe, woe! is about all that can describe it.

Take the book of Revelation and remove it from its historical foundation and give it to scholars with a fertile imagination and let them consider their present situation and they will surely make a new application or see it as a biblical alegorization. Revelation 8-11 shows us how the saints’ ...read more

Reflection C.8 Does God Have A Purpose In Coronavirus? Summary Of New Testament So Far...

Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Jun 3, 2020

In the previous seven 'Reflections' I've looked at what the New Testament, excluding Revelation, says about 'End Times'. In this Reflection I try to draw the threads together and show how they are relevant to our question.

Today is a milestone – the end of the second stage of my study. At the end of March, I decided to try to answer the question, ‘Could God be behind coronavirus?’ I knew that people were asking the question and it seemed like a good question. I decided to split the task into three parts. I would ...read more

The term "The Day of the LORD" is used often in the Old Testament and in the New Testament. It is the time God intervenes openly in this world after the Rapture, in the Tribulation. A dreadful time. We look at all the references for that in a series. Revelation sits right in there.

Clear The Way, Part 2 Series

Contributed by T.j. Conwell on Aug 10, 2025

Revive Us Lord Series

Contributed by Matthew Kratz on Jan 14, 2017

In a prayer to “Revive us Lord”, the Psalmist shows a 1) Remembrance of Past Revival (Psalm 85:1–3), 2) Request for Present Revival (Psalm 85:4–7), 3. Revelation for Future Revival (Psalm 85:8–13)
