    Having taken the title from a message that I heard over 20 years ago, this message teaches about the ’hook’ of temptation.

    How to Do Life Look For the Hook James 1:13-16 * Fishing is a fun sport and I really like it. Dad has a catfish pond and almost every time we go home, I wet a hook. However, do you know what I’ve discovered about those fish? They’re fickled. The bait that they ‘tear up’ one day will not even be ...read more

    Signature Scent

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 7, 2010

     | 12,025 views

    A sweet aroma ascends God-ward. Godly living, which includes the proclamation of the gospel, manifests Christ to men, and thus, it brings pleasure and glory to God.

    Opening illustration: You can’t see it, hear it, or touch it, but scent is powerful. The smell of things like crayons, petunias, and colognes evoke memories that transport me to the past and bring to mind people and places I might not otherwise recall. Some celebrities have fragrances named after ...read more

    Two Ears One Mouth Text: James 1:19-20 Introduction 1. Admittedly we all have trouble listening. Maybe we are watching our favorite TV program, and our husband or wife is talking to us about something that is important to them. As they talk, we may mumble, "Hmm", "Yeah", and "Uh Huh".

    Hearing the word and doing the Word goes hand and hand. If we are doing the Word, Jesus says we are on the Rock.

    The Bible has been unchanged for nearly 2,000 years. With estimated total sales of over 5 billion copies, it is widely considered to be the most influential and best-selling book of all time.

    The Search For A Queen (Part 1) Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Mar 10, 2021
     | 3,552 views

    God's people were bound in captivity, but they were not forsaken. The Lord was working behind the scenes, orchestrating events that would benefit and prosper them. We see His sovereign hand at work in the selection of Esther as queen of Persia.

    The Search for a Queen (Part 1) Esther 2: 1-9 As we studied chapter one, we discovered a detailed picture of what life was like within the Persian Empire. King Ahasuerus was a man of great wealth and power. He sought to expand the kingdom, and nothing was off limits in his pursuit to do so, not ...read more

    Don’t Judge?

    Contributed by John Gaston on Aug 18, 2021
     | 3,683 views

    The Bible says we're SUPPOSED to judge and that we're NOT supposed to judge. The key to the mystery has to do with people versus actions. We also have the responsibility to carry God's mail to the untaught.

    “DON’T JUDGE?” Mt. 7:1 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: Missing the Target is the Goal 1. Patrick McSherry told about how his Navy Dad always bragged about the gunners on his ship. Once during target practice, an unmanned drone flew past an anti-aircraft cruiser. The cruiser opened up, shells furiously ...read more

    Participants at the Lord’s Table cannot participate at the table of demonic powers.

    1 CORINTHIANS 10:18-22 GUESTS AT THE DEVIL’S TABLE “Consider the people of Israel: are not those who eat the sacrifices participants in the altar? What do I imply then?

    11 of 11. Paul closes his direction to the Ephesian church by encouraging them to find their strength in the Lord. But where or how do God's people find strength to stand victorious? God’s people acquire strength to stand victorious thru a distinct...

    STRENGTH To STAND-XI—Ephesians 6:10-20 Attention: Self-Conscious At The Gym: I was self-conscious about going to the gym, because I thought the pounds I had put on would make me stand out among the spandex-clad regulars.

    Our Commitment And Our Constraint

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Dec 16, 2021
     | 1,761 views

    In Romans 13:1-7, Paul discussed how we as Christians are to SUBMIT to the "higher powers" that are placed over us.

    In America, that means that we are to obey the laws of the land no matter if the Republican party or the Democratic party is in power, as long as those laws are not contrary to the Word of God. Illus: One case in point is the legalization of abortion. According to the laws in most of our states, ...read more

     | 1,368 views

    What should matter to believers like us is what the Bible and God says about marriage and what a marriage is or isn’t.

    Matthew 19:4-6-“Haven’t you read,” he replied, “that at the beginning the Creator ‘made them male and female,’[a] 5 and said, ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh’[b]? 6 So they are no longer two, but one flesh. ...read more
