Zechariah's Second Vision Series

Contributed by Richard Tow on Nov 1, 2021

Message focuses on the sovereignty of God, divine retribution on nations that oppress God's people, and God's vindication of his elect. This word of comfort and assurance has timeless application for God's people of all ages.

Unbelievers point to all the pain and suffering in the world and defiantly say, “If God is a just, loving God, why does he allow war? Why does he allow disease and famine? Where was he during the ...read more

Not A Leg To Stand On

Contributed by Marv Mutzenberger on Oct 26, 2004

Neither the Pharisee or the tax collector, and none of us have a leg to stand on when we use the standard of God to make judgments about ourselves.

What Are You Doing? Anything?

Contributed by Charles Whatley on May 20, 2004

We know the goal, but we keep running off down "rabbit trails." We keep letting ourselves be distracted away from the important things.

He needed more oil, so he went to the shop to get it. On the way to the shop he noticed the pigs weren’t fed. So he proceeded to the corn ...read more

Principles To Being Sold Out

Contributed by Dave Kinney on Sep 14, 2007

At times we have to strip ourselves of the stiff and wooden qualities and disrobe ourselves of the contentment and complacency that strangles our devotion to holiness and boldness.

Romans 1:13-17 There’s no doubt about Paul - he was sold out for Christ! He could not have accomplished such a life of faith without this trait! A verse that stands out regarding being sold out for God is... Matthew 6:33 “Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness...” The word “seek” ...read more

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Nov 22, 2006

Jesus exposes real emotions as he comes to Jerusalem for the last time. It tells a lot about his attitude towards the lost, and towards our hearts as well.

Jesus has just given a long story about a man who goes to become a king and what his servants do while he is gone. It has a lot of spiritual application, but it is very interesting considering what happens next. In the parable Jesus talks about a king that goes to receive his kingdom but the people ...read more
