    HoHum: One man said, “I fell off a 6 foot ladder last summer. It was the most spectacular SPLAT ever. Talk about a perfect way to teach how not to do something! No roll. No slap.

    I sat the last exam for my engineering degree in January 1973. I had to sit it in January because I’d failed one of my final exams the previous June.

    Please turn in your Bibles to the book of Malachi, which is the last book in the Old Testament. If you find Matthew and then go back a few pages, you’ll be in Malachi.

     | 249 views

    Did you know our memory is a gift from God. We all like gifts but this is a wonderful gift God has given us. Just think about it, wouldn’t it be a terrible thing to live our entire life and when we die nobody remembers that we ever existed.

    Memory is a GIFT FROM GOD!!! Illus: Dr. Odell Belger tells how that his youngest brother had died and he still is able to remember him and the good times they had together. He can still remember… • How he looked! • How he talked! • How he was the life of the party! • How he love to tell ...read more

    As the title of the message suggests, I want to point out and talk about three foundational themes that are essential to the Christian Life.

    In the earliest formation of acting, method actors were likely to be trained thespians. The original actor, Thespis, performed in Greek amphitheaters.

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Aug 3, 2025
     | 276 views

    The Wheat and the Tares is a well-known parable and we dissect it to look at the meaning and practical issues involved. It has had application to the whole of Church history and today those in oversight in churches need to be very cautious and stay alert for the entry of false teaching.

    PARABLES OF THE KINGDOM – THE SECOND – THE WHEAT AND THE TARES – Part 1 of 2 We come to the second of the Kingdom Parables commonly known as The Parable of the Tares. Previously we studied the Sower and saw this to be the good seed sown by the Sower who is Christ, but taken up by His Apostles in ...read more

    The End Is Near - Don't Be Alarmed

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Nov 3, 2002
    based on 60 ratings
     | 7,574 views

    We hear about violence and famine, war and crime every day on the news. Jesus said this was the beginning of the end for this world - but He also says something else to us - "Don’t be alarmed." How do we keep a peaceful heart in times of great storm?

    There’s an attitude that exists, certainly among scientists, the educational elite – and surprisingly even among Christian professors – that the Bible is not historically accurate. "It is an account that was crafted by men who had a point to make, so the details don’t necessarily match up with what ...read more
