The Omniscient God Attributes Of God – (7 Of 10)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 9, 2022

This passage of scripture has been preached on through the centuries and still today the hearts of God's people are blessed as they see what God's Word says about Nebuchadnezzar's dreams.

Verse 1 tells us he dreamed these dreams "...in the second year..." of his reign. Someone may be saying, "SO WHAT?" We all have had dreams! Yes, but you had better pray to God that you never have a dream like Nebuchadnezzar had. Of course we know that during ...read more

Last Words

Contributed by Lee Hammond Houston Jr. on Jan 28, 2019

The Bible records seven last statements that Christ uttered while he was on the cross. While Christ was on the cross, he was doing his greatest work; he was uttering some of his greatest words.

Last Words. Not too long after my twenty-second birthday, I arrived in Vietnam, a machine-gunner in the 199th Light Infantry Brigade. My first combat was only a few days later.

The Mature Minister Of God Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Jan 14, 2002

Peter says we are a royal priesthood. What does that mean for the average church goer? (this sermon had great effect to prompt members to greater involvement in the church.)

OPENING: On the overhead projection we put up a cartoon showing a crazed man being led away from a church in a straightjacket. On the steps of the church building the preacher comments to another man “I’m going to miss Louis - he volunteered for everything.” COMMENT: As funny as that cartoon is, ...read more

God's Letter Of Recommendation

Contributed by Mark Adams on Oct 21, 2006

This sermon relies heavily on a visual illustration. It is based on the passage in 2 Cor. 3 which says we are letters from God. It calls for serious dedication to living for Christ.

What God Loves

Contributed by Rusty Tardo on Jun 10, 2006

When you are very close to someone, you know what they love. Are we close enough to our Lord to know what the Bible specifically says He loves?

What God Loves: 1. Those who walk in righteousness - Prov.15:9 The way of the wicked is an abomination unto the LORD: but he loveth him that followeth after righteousness.

Mistaking People For Gods

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on May 13, 2022

Ayn Rand's philosophy would have led her, I think, if put in the position of Paul and Barnabas, to say, “bring on the sacrifice. I am a god!”

When I was teaching, my religion class would always study the philosophy of Ayn Rand, a deracinated Jew whose ideal of rugged individualism influenced people like Alan Greenspan and Rush Limbaugh. Her notions would have led her, I think, if put in the position of Paul and Barnabas, to say, “bring ...read more

God Will Provide

Contributed by Thomas Dibble on May 30, 2003

Go ahead and trust him with the needs of your life - I didn’t say wants, the things that we think we need - but what do we really need. God will provide the right thing, at just the right place, at just the right time.

In view of life’s difficult circumstances many of us must wonder from time to time whether or not God really cares for us or not. All of us have had perplexing situations that we have had to deal with. All of us have had needs which we have earnestly prayed over. I want you to know this morning ...read more

Thank God Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 10, 2021

People can even take a miracle for granted, and not be thankful. Not being thankful is one of mankind's greatest sins. It shows that man is blind to the grace of God. To go through life and never say thank you to God is to live the ultimate in the cursed life.

God Of Mission

Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Jul 17, 2021

Talk 2 in my five-talk series on Jonah. Mission is God's mission. In the story of Jonah - and especially in view of what Jesus says about Jonah - we recognize that God is the master strategist in mission and he's breathtakingly creative.

Jonah Talk 2: God of Mission Last week I started a new series on Jonah. My major theme last week was how compassionate God is. At the time of Jonah, the Assyrian Empire was expanding. Historians of the Middle East tell us how cruel the Assyrian rulers were. I spared you the grizzly details. ...read more

But For The Love Of God

Contributed by Rodney V Johnson on Jul 18, 2020

We often hear people says "For the love of God....." when they are expressing frustrations. In this message I hope to convince Christians that this statement should never be made in frustration, but with a sense of awe as we reflect on God's love for us.

But For The Love Of God Scriptures: John 3:16; Matthew 4:8-10; 1 Timothy 2:3-4 The last time that I spoke to you I delivered a message about knowing THE Name.
