    A look at the commands of God concerning the roles of Men and Women in the Church

    As the world continues to spiral slowly out of control, it also affects the church. The absolute authority of God's Word is being diminished for equity and equality in all things.

    “It is written: ‘Man does not live on bread alone, but on every Word, that comes from the mouth of God”. (Matthew 4:4)

    Introduction: Our theme for today’s sermon in “overcoming temptation”. The first temptation was in the Garden of Eden where Satan tempted Adam and Eve to eat the forbidden fruit.

     | 1,015 views

    These are thoughts on Genesis Chapter Forty. 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.

    GENESIS CHAPTER FORTY OVERVIEW Overall what is happening in this chapter is that while in prison, Joseph interprets two dreams. Thomas Coke (1801) – Genesis 40 The chief butler and chief baker of Pharaoh relate their dreams to Joseph. He interprets the dreams, which after three days are ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,703 views

    The Bible is screaming to be read not just to inform us but to form us. It can change our lives if we'll just let it.

    READING THE BIBLE FOR LIFE CHANGE Isaac Butterworth October 31, 2010 Hebrews 4:12-13 (NIV) 12 For the word of God is living and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart. 13 ...read more

    God’s Comfort In Captivity Series

    Contributed by Phillip Smith on Jan 30, 2023
     | 1,246 views

    In faith and trust of God, the righteous will find comfort in captivity. Wisdom will be given for those who seek to find it.

    God never forsakes his own. Today we will begin to see comfort given to His righteous captives by some prophecies foretold of a physical literal nature of their future; perhaps way into the future until the dispersing of Christians in AD 70, or beyond. Daniel’s comfort lieth in understanding God’s ...read more

    The danger of false teachers goes all the way back to the beginning, but the Bible shows us several types of false teachers and some are worse than others!

    Just look at where we’ve come thus far in 2 Peter! Chapter one opens with the wonder of God’s provisions that help us become like him… 3-4 His power His provision His precious promises Our participation in his divine nature His deliverance from and protection from corruption Next, we see a ...read more

    Contributed by Rodney V Johnson on Jul 4, 2016
    based on 1 rating
     | 8,270 views

    This two part series focuses on the differences between Christian beliefs and how the label Christian does not fully describes those following Jesus as it did when the term was originally given to His followers.

    Christian Part 1 Scriptures: Act 11:26; 1 Peter 4:16; Matthew 7:13-14; 28:19 Introduction The title of my message this morning is “Christian” and I really want you to understand how this term describes someone who follows Christ today versus when it was first used some 2000 years ...read more

    "love Who?" "my Enemies!?"

    Contributed by Robert Walderman on Mar 16, 2019
     | 8,330 views

    Words matter. Words communicate. As a master teacher Jesus used words and literary devices to enhance his teaching with great power and insight. He often used 'hyperbole.'

    The Gospel of Luke-Pt.18: “Love who? My Enemies!” I walked through hell this week. My personal world was on fire and everyone unloaded their problems on me. I ended the week with the weight of the world upon my shoulders. Let me ask you, ‘What kind of week did I have?’ Yes, you would be ...read more

    God's Comfort Through Knowledge Series

    Contributed by Phillip Smith on Feb 4, 2023
     | 1,009 views

    Knowledge of God and his kingdom offers comfort to the righteous in all times of pain, sorrow, and suppression by evil beings. Daniel, in captivity, was comforted regularly by knowledge given to 'a man highly esteemed'; Daniel 9:23. Through knowledge, the righteous are comforted today.

    In our study of punishment, captivity, protection of saints, and comfort of the righteous in times of captivity, we will see God’s continued comfort in knowledge of His divine plan for mankind unto Daniel. It is safe to assume Daniel shared these bits of knowledge and wisdom with the righteous ...read more

    The Handwriting On The Wall Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Jan 4, 2021
     | 3,197 views

    Belshazzar arrogantly tested the Lord by converting the use of the most holy vessels from God's temple into vessels for the most unholy of purposes--worshiping idols and drunken immorality. He thus discovered a recipe for spiritual disaster. Learn from him how to avoid spiritual disaster!

    This morning, we have the privilege of consider the actual historical and Scriptural event that resulted in our proverbial saying, “And I saw the handwriting on the wall.” Obviously, the biblical story has made such an impression on people of our culture that 2600 hundred years later we still use ...read more
