    This chapter records a beautiful story of grace bestowed upon someone who felt unworthy to receive it. It reveals the virtue of a man who many automatically think of the sin he committed.

    Not Without Blood

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 15, 2019

     | 4,454 views

    The ratification of the old covenant did not take place without blood. But it took the blood of Christ to bear away our sins, once and forever!

    NOT WITHOUT BLOOD. Hebrews 9:15-28. In continuing to compare and contrast the old covenant and the new, we have seen how the high priest would enter the ‘Holiest of All’ (Hebrews 9:3), alone, once a year (on the Day of Atonement) ‘not without blood, which he offered for himself, and for the ...read more

    These are thoughts on Genesis Chapter Twenty-Four. In his work, "What does every Bible chapter say..." John Hunt gives an overview of each chapter of the Bible. It is my intention to do the same thing here.

    Joy In The Midst Of Heaviness Series

    Contributed by Paul Dayao on Oct 14, 2025
     | 172 views

    This sermon explains the Christian paradox of experiencing profound joy—rooted in our eternal salvation—while simultaneously enduring temporary and purposeful seasons of sorrow and trials.

    Introduction: A Heavenly Paradox To the world, joy and sorrow are opposites. They are like oil and water; they cannot mix. You are either happy, or you are sad. The presence of one means the absence of the other. The goal of modern life, it seems, is to construct a life so comfortable, so ...read more

    Offering excuses will never make better people.

    WHAT EXCUSE DO YOU HAVE FOR MAKING EXCUSES? Luke 14:18 And they all with one consent began to make excuses. Rom. 1:20... so that they are without excuse.
