    Jesus defies the principles of gravity and space in his fifth sign which is given only to the 12 disciples on the Sea of Galilee. Look for the picture of the Gospel in this sign!

    Each winter we seem to be plagued with dreadful viruses that make us wonder about two things:

    (1) Americans cannot help but wonder about what the world considers to be the greatest health care, yet it cannot even cure the common cold.

    The Master Carpenter

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Aug 24, 2022
     | 4,706 views

    I would like to draw your attention to the section of the Bible that tells us that Jesus was a carpenter. We do not hear many sermons highlighting this part of the Lord’s life.

    However, most of Christ’s adult life on earth was spent as a carpenter. We read about the last three-and-a half years Jesus spent on earth in Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. In their accounts we read that He went everywhere preaching, teaching, and doing miracles. In those three-and-a-half years ...read more

    Now we come to the last of the ten commandments. Perhaps God saved this tenth commandment until last for a special purpose.

    The Lord, in the previous nine commandments, has told us, "Thou shalt not...”. The tenth commandment deals with the thing what will CAUSE US TO VIOLATE ALMOST EVERY ONE OF THE OTHER COMMANDMENTS, THE SIN OF COVETING.

    What was it about what Peter preached on Pentecost that cut his audience to the heart and prompted them to ask "What shall we do?" And what can we learn from what he said that can help us be more effective about sharing our faith?

    We just read a sermon by the Apostle Peter - a sermon he preached on the day of Pentecost - and it was so powerful that about 3000 people responded by asking: WHAT SHALL WE DO? And then they repented of their sin and were baptized into Christ. Their future was changed because of what Peter said. ...read more
