    If you are a student of the scripture you cannot ignore the study of prophecy. Billy Graham has said that the most neglected teaching in the church today is the 2nd coming of Jesus Christ. There are several reasons for the absence of this teaching…

    “Can I really know the Future?” Matthew 24 In 1898 Morgan Robertson wrote a book titled the wreck of the Titan. In the book Robertson tells the story of a hug ocean liner that struck an iceberg and sank in the middle of the ocean. Now you may be thinking already that this sounds a ...read more

    This chapter discusses the two terrible rulers that are to arise in the end time, the antichrist and his cohort, the world-wide religious leader who will help the antichrist gain and maintain control over the world. The Scripture refers to them as beasts

    Chapter 13 is probably the key to the whole book of Revelation. It covers the antichrist. If a person understands this chapter, then he will understand the whole book of Revelation. This chapter discusses the two terrible rulers that are to arise in the end time, the antichrist and his cohort, ...read more

     | 6,740 views

    This benediction (composed from various songs, scriptures and traditions) encourages believers to bless God and asks God's blessings upon them. This is shared in honor of my birth church - The New Metropolitan Baptist Church - where it was composed.

    The Benediction Praise God from whom all blessings flow! Praise God from whom all blessings flow! Praise God from whom all blessings flow! - Why? Because: God and God alone created everything we call our own; From the mighty to the small, the glory of them all, is God’s and ...read more

    As Christians, we have embarked upon a new way of life. To guide us along this path, we have been given certain principles for living. These principles have been illustrated for us in the Scriptures with graphic pictures.

    Last week we defined our purpose which is: "Connecting people with Jesus Christ and each other". Today, using Scripture as our guide, we are going to learn the "how". (Acts 13:13-52)

    How do we fulfill our Purpose? Acts 13:13-52 Introduction When this series first started we discussed the imp of being a biblical church -- The church of Acts is a tremendous model for us to examine / follow -- When it comes to following Christ, there is really NO more perfect ...read more

     | 5,752 views

    The parable of the Seed and the Sower is full of spiritual insight for us as we see the world as a place where the Lord wishes to plant seeds and to harvest souls. In this first part we look mostly at the Scripture between the parable and the explanation

    Matthew 13:1-23 NIV Parable - “A short allegorical story designed to illustrate or teach some truth, religious principle, or moral lesson.” What might be an example of a simple, non-Biblical story that could be considered a parable? The Tortoise and the Hare (briefly describe) The ...read more

    While we should stand uncompromisingly against things strictly forbidden by Scripture, we should not create additional rules formed from our opinions and give them the same standing as God’s law.

    Romans 14:1-11 Introduction: A. There have been many instances in church history where Christians have differed in their interpretation of certain Scripture passages or about doctrines. B.

    Have We Not Rather Mourned?

    Contributed by Dale Mcanally on Dec 30, 2014
     | 3,478 views

    Mourning in it’s truest sense in the scriptures means intercession, travail, and earnest supplication. Mourning means that we are seeing or perceiving people and situations through the eyes of the Lord rather than through the judgment of the flesh.

    Jesus practiced mourning regularly. He said in Matthew 23:37, “O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would ...read more

     | 4,361 views

    We are all commanded to learn to obey everything Jesus taught so that we can do our part in the ministry of reconciliation. We cannot do this if we feed our spirit distorted scripture and the wisdom of man.

    Positively Not a Hireling Illustration Right after a young man graduated, with high honors, from a prestigious Bible College he was hired by a rather large church. His father, the pastor of a small rural church, was bursting with pride at his son’s accomplishment. “Son,” he said, ...read more

    Martha, Martha, You're Not So Bad

    Contributed by Clay Gentry on Aug 2, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 21,195 views

    Often overshadowed by her sister Mary, Martha is often marginalized as an undesirable example of for disciples. However, when examined through the lens of scripture and not popular Christian books, Martha shines through as an example for all godly women.

    When I survey the women of the New Testament, I find some remarkable women of faith, Mary the mother of Jesus (Luke 1:26-38) is the first to come to mind. But, there are others, such as Joanna, Susanna and Mary Magalene (Luke 8:1-3). Later on, I read about Priscilla who, along with her husband, ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 5,520 views

    Today, our Scripture tells of the third major party to the incarnation and his response to it. It is a story of courage that is told every Christmas season. But it is also a story we often miss because this hero of the story is usually in the background.

    The Courage of Joseph Matthew 1:18-25
