    What caused America to loose some of her luster? Is it bad decisions from bad leaders through the generations who chose to “bow down to other gods whom they serve” (Deuteronomy 30:17)?

    CHOOSE LIFE Text: Deuteronomy 30:15 -19 Deuteronomy 30:15 - 19:  (15)  See, I have set before you today life and prosperity, death and adversity.  (16)  If you obey the commandments of the LORD your God that I am commanding you today, by loving the LORD your God, walking in ...read more

    The Apostle Paul (2Timothy 3:6), spoke of two magicians as the notable opponents of Moses and called them "Jannes and Jambres." (See the Tar-gums of Jerusalem and Jonathan.)

    Aaron's Rod Is Turned Into A Serpent Exodus 7:11-12 11. Then Pharaoh also called the wise men[4] and the sorcerers [3]: now the magicians of Egypt[2], they also did in like manner[5] with their enchantments[1].

    Parables Of The Kingdom – The Second – The Wheat And The Tares – Part 2 Of 2 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Aug 3, 2025
     | 126 views

    The tares are still alive today with growing false doctrine and practices. At the end of the age they are taken away to leave the righteous for the Kingdom on earth. There is a lot of application to Israel here in the Tribulation and after. The church at Smyrna is also considered.

    PARABLES OF THE KINGDOM – THE SECOND – THE WHEAT AND THE TARES – Part 2 of 2 In this Part 2 of the Parable of the Wheat and the Tares, we will concentrate on the prophetic side of the Parable and take a look at the church at Smyrna. Let us revise the scripture again – FROM MATTHEW – {{Matthew ...read more

    When Death Has Taken My Loved One

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jul 11, 2010
    based on 6 ratings
     | 22,728 views

    Though unnatural, death comes to all. How shall we respond to death? We explore this neglected subject by looking at an incident in the ministry of Ezekiel.

    “The word of the LORD came to me: ‘Son of man, behold, I am about to take the delight of your eyes away from you at a stroke; yet you shall not mourn or weep, nor shall your tears run down. Sigh, but not aloud; make no mourning for the dead. Bind on your turban, and put your shoes on your feet; ...read more

    What happened after the Son of God was born. Events in the household of Joseph and Mary provide a model for us to emulate after Christmas.

    “When they had performed everything according to the Law of the Lord, they returned into Galilee, to their own town of Nazareth. And the child grew and became strong, filled with wisdom. And the favor of God was upon him.” [1] We plan for Christmas. We shop, we decorate, we enjoy the music, the ...read more

    Do Two Walk Together Unless They Have Agreed To Meet? Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 10,270 views

    Fellowship is dependent upon doctrinal fidelity. Whether co-operation in evangelism, in missionary advance or in worship, all fellowship depends upon doctrinal fidelity.

    “Do two walk together, unless they have agreed to meet?” [1] God had blessed His ancient people. However, despite His rich blessings, they chose to rebel. God makes it clear that He is left with no option except judgement. The question selected as the text for the message today, is ...read more

    What Shall I Do With Jesus? Series

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Nov 3, 2012
    based on 4 ratings
     | 23,868 views

    The preacher, the Christian and the outsider all must answer the same question--What Shall I Do With Jesus? Each of us must answer; we cannot evade. For salvation and for service, our answer reveals who we are.

    “What shall I do with Jesus who is called Christ” [1] Almost every message I have heard from this text was directed to lost people. That is certainly appropriate. However, in our study today, I want to consider how this question applies not only to the lost, but also to each of us who bear the ...read more

    Practising Serving Series

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jun 25, 2017
    based on 1 rating
     | 9,234 views

    The model that is frequently brought into the church is provided by this world. That model drives the disciple to step on others in order to advance himself. The model Jesus provides, though often neglected, is quite different; it teaches us to serve.

    “A dispute also arose among them, as to which of them was to be regarded as the greatest. And he said to them, ‘The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them, and those in authority over them are called benefactors. But not so with you. Rather, let the greatest among you become as the ...read more
