    Hey, Wait A Minute.

    Contributed by Roy Fowler on Apr 10, 2021
     | 2,084 views

    Are we to sell all that we have and give all of it to the Church to administrate for everyone one. Or does this passage mean something else?

    Sermon Title: Hey, wait a minute. Scripture Text: Acts 4:32-35 ILLUSTRATION by joke. There's a story of a soapbox preacher in Hyde Park. He declared: "If you had two houses, you would give one to the poor wouldn't you?' 'Yes' said a man in the audience, 'indeed I ...read more

    And with many other exhortations he preached good news to the people."* (ESV) Exhortation Defined Exhortation is a term that carries a strong sense of encouragement, urging, and admonishment. It goes beyond just offering advice; it implies an earnest urging towards change and action, ...read more

    The Priorities Of Jesus And His Family Series

    Contributed by Joel Gilbert on Jan 7, 2025
     | 711 views

    This passage seems to reveal how Mary, Joseph and Jesus prioritized God’s things in their routines, regards (or affections), and relationships.

    Today, as we continue our study in the book of Luke, we come to a rather peculiar passage that provides a rare glimpse into Jesus’ childhood. The other gospels vary in how much they share about Jesus before his public ministry begins. Matthew devotes about 48 verses to Jesus’ early years (some of ...read more

    Contributed by Jessie Manuel on Sep 7, 2024
     | 625 views

    As we reflect on this passage, it is imperative that we give special attention to the principles of inclusion and justice, particularly through the lens of womanist theology.

    Introduction: The Call for Equity and Inclusion Dearest family, we gather today in the spirit of unity and love, seeking the inspiration of our ancestors as we engage with the sacred text of James 2:1-10. As we reflect on this passage, it is imperative that we give special attention to the ...read more

    In these passages from Jude, we find seven points of inspiration that guide us in building spiritual resilience and strengthening our faith.

    1. "But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith" (Jude 1:20a). Cross-reference: "So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God" (Romans 10:17). The foundation of our spiritual resilience lies in our faith. We must diligently build up our ...read more

    Preaching From Philippians #6

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 31, 2022
     | 1,697 views

    In this passage of scripture, Paul talks to the Philippian Christians about salvation. That may seem strange because these people said they were Believers.

    A good pastor deals with the subject of salvation for two reasons: (1) He knows it is a possibility that many are deceived about their salvation. The Lord Himself dealt with this deception in Matthew 7:22-23, we read, “Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy ...read more

    This passage is flooded with information about the connections between the Father, the Son, and the disciples. What specifically can we learn from it?

    - [Probably best to do on a Wednesday evening – lots of points.] - This passage is dense. Lots going on. It’s deep and complex. - One of the things worth pulling from this passage: there is an almost overwhelming about of information on the connections between Father, Son, and the disciples. - ...read more

     | 1,305 views

    In this passage we are reminded of what God provided for us through Jesus. What did God provide for us through Jesus?

    There’s probably no one here who is not familiar with Clement Moore’s famous poem … “T’was the night before Christmas when all through the house, not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse. The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, in hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there.” It’s ...read more

    Three times in this passage it is stated that God gave up evil humanity to its own devices. A serious warning to our generation.

    1:24 “Therefore God also gave them up …” Therefore. The wrath is coming. We deserve the wrath that is coming. Why? Well, men knew the truth of God and suppressed it. They could see His attributes, but they ignored Him. They did not glorify Him. They were not thankful to Him. They thought they ...read more

    The People In The Pews

     | 3,609 views

    Ezekiel is a interesting prophet. We can see from this passage of Scripture that he preached sermons that dealt with people where they lived.

    I am sure that when Ezekiel got through preaching this sermon, there were not many standing at the back door telling him how much they enjoyed the sermon. This is why many will seek for a church where the Word of God is occasionally MENTIONED, but not PREACHED! For example, today it is not ...read more
